Awarded Best of Zola
There is no better DJ than DJ Martin. He had us fill out a questionnaire that helped guide us through planning our entire wedding day and ultimately the absolute BEST PARTY ever! I have never seen so many people on a dance floor as I did at our wedding reception. Instead of a head table, we put the DJ façade on the stage where the head tables would have been so that he was the center of attention. Ultimately, it was the best decision. He was able to be close to the dance floor, feel the crowd, and have a good time. He also listened to us on our music choices and guided us on things we were unsure of. We highly recommend Ultimate Beats Entertainment.

I am a professional DJ from Festus, Missouri. I am also blessed to be a husband and a father to two amazing kids!​ At the beginning of my career, I worked full-time in radio as an on-air talent. After a few years in the radio industry, I was given the opportunity to expand my abilities with companies such as ESPN, Fox Sports Midwest, & one of the top DJ Companies in the STL area! Eventually, after years of hard work, I decided to offer STL couples everything they had been dreaming of for their big day! So, in 2021 I launched my own DJ business... Matt Baer Media!

From the moment we booked Matt Baer Media, we knew we were in great hands. Their communication style was incredibly professional and productive, ensuring every detail was taken care of leading up to our wedding day. The quality of their work was truly unmatched - their playlists and DJ services were flawless and top-tier. Matt literally created the coolest playlists and didn't bother us unless it was time for him to help us with things. He was so professional and so talented, and at least 100 people told me he was amazing that night. In fact, I had multiple brides-to-be at my wedding who all asked me about Matt because he was just that amazing. I cannot recommend Matt Baer Media enough - BOOK THEM RIGHT NOW for your wedding!

I have a dirty little secret… I never wanted to be a wedding planner. It was never something that was on my radar. The series of events that led me to this industry is, to be honest, not very exciting, inspiring, or important, really, so I’ll skip that part. (Feel free to ask me later.) What is important is that my heart is in help and service. Born and raised in St. Louis, I’ve gained a lot of knowledge about local wedding vendors, traditions, and styles. But after working 12+ years in the industry, I’m down for anything and love working with a couple that has a unique style and vision for their day.

Victoria is an absolute pleasure to work with. I appreciate her calm presence and attention to detail, and the ways she takes care of both the clients and the vendors. She is both "behind the scenes" and somehow always right there when you need her. Leading up to the wedding she has great communication and is very responsive. I know it's going to be a gorgeous, flawless, easy day when Victoria is coordinating.

Rachel is an outstanding DJ and emcee. She met with us virtually a few times to get our music squared away for an awesome reception. She was always professional and carried a calming presence with her that assured us we'd made the right choice. Rachel kept guests glued to the dance floor, reading the room perfectly with whatever song came next. Easy communication, affordable, and an expert in her role. We didn't utilize her day-of services, but I imagine she is proficient in anything she may be hired for. We highly recommend DJ Rachel!

Our wedding day had a heat index of 110 degrees! My makeup was flawless along with my bridal party’s.

Rice + Co. Events was founded in March 2022 as Charley Rice Weddings with the vision of bringing intimacy and personality back into weddings. Charley was ordained by the American Marriage Ministries that same month and began performing ceremonies shortly after. In January of 2023, she began accepting coordination clients as well. Since then the business has grown almost entirely from word-of-mouth. Currently, Charley Rice Weddings offers three comprehensive officiating packages and two comprehensive coordination packages in addition to event rentals, honeymoon planning, and other add-ons.

I'm just gonna say it - I was in over my head when it came to planning our wedding by myself. Charley Rice Weddings quite literally saved the day, and more. They went thoroughly above and beyond my expectations. Charley communicated clearly with me on an organized, but not overwhelming timeline, she took over all vendor communication for me which was especially helpful, and her planning skills are second to none. Charley and her team provided a completely customized itinerary for my wedding day and rehearsal dinner. They helped bring my exact wedding vision to life, right down to the nitty-gritty details. She set up all of my decor exactly how I wanted it to be done, took it down at the end of the night, and arranged for an easy pick up later that week for the extra stuff we couldn't take home that night. 10/10 would get married again (just to work with Charley again!!!)

Hey there! My name is Maggie, and I am the Owner + Lead Photographer at Desert Luna Photography! I am 24 years old, and just had MY dream wedding myself! We had a small destination wedding in Arizona! I have taken photos with a camera since I was 10 years old - and have even won a few awards for one of my photos! I love the outdoors, chicken strips, being a plant momma, and creating magic through my lens! I am currently on year 5 of taking photos professionally, and on year 3 of being known as Desert Luna Photography!

Awarded Best of Zola
If you're looking for a photographer for engagement pictures, a wedding photographer, or a photographer for any other occasion - stop looking! My fiance and I were visiting friends in AZ shortly after our engagement and we booked Maggie for an engagement shoot at sunset while we were there. To say that we are are OBSESSED with our pictures is an understatement. Maggie was so knowledgeable about the lighting at that time of day and utilized the whole landscape to get great pictures with different backgrounds, not JUST different poses from us. We didn't stay in the same spot during the session as she continued to create new angles to adjust to as the sun continued to set. I felt comfortable asking "hey can we try this!?" and Maggie was more than willing to get excited with us about capturing the kind of picture we had in our mind. Maggie also gave us alot of direction on how to maybe tilt our head, or move a hand over a little bit, or recognized that the shot wasn't going to be great so she just scratched it and moved to the next idea. This was extra helpful to me because I didn't have to "guess how to model" and I appreciated that she made good use of her and our time. Maggie works quickly to get a variety of poses and landscapes, is willing to travel, and seems to genuinely love what she does. Her excitement and direction made it fun and exciting for us too! 10/10 for our experience with Maggie!

Lexi Harrington Photography

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

  • Serves Cottage Hills, IL

It's true what they say — when you know, you know. Something as special as that innate instinct to love and be loved by your person is art in itself. Keep the star-crossed feeling close with artfully directed storytelling photography designed to honor your love / your story / your wedding in all its authentic beauty. Let's hike a trail, drink cocktails on the roof, dance in a crowded street, let's capture your love for everything that it is. Let's do it all and make it as unforgettable as the moment you say, "I do!"

My wedding was a little atypical, we planned the entire thing in less than two months, had a crowd of 30 family members present, and had EVERYONE take an hour car trip into the National Park for our ceremony. The photographer who would capture all our wonderful memories was by far the most important vendor to me, so Lexi was the first person I booked! And thank goodness I did because I couldn’t have picked a more wonderful person to handle the uniqueness of our celebration than her. Lexi dealt with one date change, two location changes, and much more as my husband and I went through the decision making process in our short timeline. Lexi handled it all flawlessly, and showed up ready to help make our day special even in the middle of her own pregnancy! She traveled from states away, and made the Indiana Jones-esque drive into the mountains, to go above and beyond to shoot for us. Not only that but she got our preview out in less than 24 hours from the close of our reception, lightning speed! She was so kind and helped us feel comfortable and natural for two people who have never taken professional photos before. I would recommend anyone to Lexi for their wedding/elopement!

Luna + Co Events

  • Serves Cottage Hills, IL

Luna + Co is a St. Louis-based full-service event design and wedding coordination company dedicated to creating unforgettable moments for you! We combine creativity and organization with a collaborative approach to ensure your event is one of a kind. We specialize in weddings, but love to plan any and all of life's celebrations.

Hiring Luna Co was one of the best decisions we made in planning a 250-guest wedding in only six months! We knew we wanted to do a lot of the planning ourselves and were initially reluctant to use a professional planner/coordinator, but with Luna Co's partial planning option, we got the best of all worlds and an incredible value for the many services that Alexandra, Jazmin, and Sophia provided. The Luna Co team kept track of our vendor contracts, joined calls with vendors whenever we wanted them to, and helped keep us organized with regular check-ins throughout the planning process. They offered recommendations, advised us on logistical questions, and focused on what was most important to us. For example, we had 20 kids at our reception, and the Luna Co team helped us come up with a "kid zone" and coordinated with our caterer to make sure kids' meals were ready a little before the adults ate dinner. On our wedding weekend, Alexandra joined for our ceremony rehearsal, and I don't know what we would have done without her. We had an interfaith (Catholic Jewish) ceremony, so it was a little outside everyone's comfort zone and there was no real template to follow, but Alexandra took charge in the most kind yet firm way and made sure everyone knew what was happening and all of the items we needed were organized and stored safely. It honestly relieved so much stress that day knowing she would be on hand for the ceremony itself. And then on the day of the wedding, we were truly able to just be present and enjoy the moment with our loved ones, because the Luna Co team handled everything behind-the scenes. That included an impressive turnaround reception setup (since we couldn't access our reception venue until later in the day), troubleshooting various misplaced decor materials, and gracefully finding spots for two surprise (but wanted!) guests. Throughout the process, the team was prompt, responsive, and professional. They were easy and fun to work with. We know our large guest count and unique venue made our wedding logistically challenging, but the Luna Co team was always encouraging, positive, and found ways to make things possible. We would highly recommend Luna Co to anyone and everyone!

If you’re looking for a perfect wedding day, you’ve found it with Red Oak Valley. I had toured numerous venue’s before hearing about Red Oak Valley. On the way to the venue, it was 1.5 hours from our house, I told my then finance, now husband, that it was a waste of time touring Red Oak because I didn’t think our guests would travel far to be with us on our wedding day. But boy was I wrong. As soon as I got to Red Oak my mind immediately changed. I knew it was the place I wanted to marry the love of my life. Nancy, the owner, was the one that gave the tour. She had just gotten done cutting the grass and was as humble as a person can get about her business and the services they offer. I mean, have you seen many owners cutting the grass of their own business? 100 acres at that? I hadn’t. From start to finish, wedding planning was an absolute breeze. Dana, made payments, contract, meetings and anything in between a pleasure instead of a headache. Always willing to go above and beyond to make sure planning went accordingly. Christina, was my day of coordinator and she met with me multiple times and answered any and all questions of mine without an ounce of annoyance (I wasn’t a bridezilla but my anxiety was through the roof because of the person I am lol). She made me feel at ease when we met and talked. She was honestly amazing at everything leading up to the wedding and the day of. She was running around the day of making sure we had the perfect day. And we did. If you’re looking for easy planning, amazing Coordinators and an affordable wedding venue, book with Red Oak Valley. I promise you won’t regret it. I couldn’t give enough thanks to everyone at Red Oak Valley for making our special day, what it was!

Simply Sweet Sensations LLC and Jair were a dream to work with for our wedding desserts. From our first meeting, Jair had great communication and really listened to what we envisioned for our cake, cupcakes, and dessert shooters. The final products exceeded our expectations - the cake was elegant and delicious, the cupcakes disappeared quickly, and the shooters were a huge hit with our guests. Jair's attention to detail in the designs and flavors made the dessert table a highlight of our reception. Her superb work and creative vision added so much to our special day. We'd highly recommend Simply Sweet Sensations for any couple looking for amazing wedding cakes and desserts.

Our wedding at the Forest Park Golf Club was absolutely outstanding! Lexi was stellar helping us when we first visited, learning about the different package options, and finding out that we could make the dream of having our wedding reception in Forest Park come true! Maddie did more than we could ever have hoped for as our coordinator, helping us with decorating ideas, arranging all of the details, and getting everything set up perfectly on the day of the reception. We made some additions the week of the wedding that the club accommodated seamlessly. They made everything as easy as it could have been. Our photographer was in an accident on the wedding day (oh no!) which pushed back the timing of the wedding. We arrived later than planned at the reception. Maddie was waiting outside with golf carts so we could immediately dash away for pictures at the Grand Basin- after she made a quick dash into the club to bring out some emergency finger nail tools! And the pictures around the Grand Basin: sunset reflecting on the water behind us… so beautiful! And the food! The drinks! The service! Everything was absolutely outstanding. Me and my bride never got our own drinks- the servers were frequently asking us for anything we would like. It truly exceeded the dreams we had of what our Forest Park wedding reception could be!

If you’re here, you're probably in search of an idyllic indoor/outdoor venue to say “I Do” and dance the night away near St. Charles, St. Louis, or somewhere south of the city. You’re looking for something that feels close to home, with modern amenities and easy access to local hotels, but surrounded by the beauty of nature. You’ve likely pinned a few (hundred) photos for wedding inspiration and you’re searching for your ideal St. Louis wedding venue. Haue Valley is the venue you didn’t think you would find. The one that’s both awe-inspiring and affordable.

Located a short distance from St. Louis Haue Valley is an amazing venue with a lot to offer. Family owned and operated Haue Valley ownership and staff provide great communication, clear directions and an amazing 3,000 piece Something Borrowed Closet with everything a bride needs to decorate the ceremony and reception areas. The ceremony area is outdoors and is versatile. There’s an alternate ceremony location on-site in case of rain. The alternate ceremony location isn’t the reception area. Yes! No need to rearrange the tables and chairs! The Groom’s Room has plenty of seating, a bathroom and is spacious. It also has a TV, shuffleboard and PlayStation to keep the guys occupied. The Bridal Suite is fabulous and beautiful in its own right. It is large, beautifully furnished, has a bathroom is and well lit and equipped for getting ready on your wedding day. Last, I will say that the entire site is beautiful and has many spots for pictures so there’s no need to go to other locations for photos. There’s a waterfall, a lake, a vineyard, an ivy wall, giant rocks and several other places that make fabulous backdrops for your wedding pictures. So glad we chose Haue Valley for our wedding venue!

Erin is so sweet, easy to work with and their food was amazing! I am a vegetarian and she made it so easy for our guests to enjoy both vegetarian and local meat options. We got so many compliments throughout the night of our wedding and even weeks after on how great our food was. A couple times throughout the night Erin came up to me asking what I wanted to drink, because I was busy trying to talk to all the guests! I didn’t expect it and really appreciated that! I also love how everything they get is made locally and they are big on minimum waste. I would cater from Seed Sprout Spoon 100% again!
