Keagan was the BEST - we are so thankful we had her help! We used the a la carte options for set-up/take-down day-of our wedding. But Keagan went above and beyond and helped make everything run so smoothly! Set-up would have been a nightmare without her. She totally saw my vision, and took care of everything so I could enjoy the day without thinking about decorations/logistics. THANK YOU Keagan, this was the best money we spend on the wedding, and if I could do it again I would have hired Keagan as our full-on day-of coordinator. HIGHLY recommend.

Your wedding is YOUR day! At Ultimate Beats Entertainment, our biggest goal is to make your vision come to life. We customize a plan for your wedding, party, or event that incorporates both dance floor-filling DJ sets and live performances. Join together with your friends and family, get down to great music, and make magical memories.

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!

Awarded Best of Zola
Matt provided his services for my husband and I this past weekend for our wedding, and we have nothing but good things to say! When I started wedding planning, the two most important vendors to me was our DJ and photographer. After lots of research and talks with other DJs, I found Matt and I’m so glad I did. He listened to what we wanted and was super professional during the whole process. During our reception, I told him multiple times that I needed him to play something I didn’t know so I could get a break. We highly recommend Matt Baer Media for DJ services and even the Photo Booth. It was a huge hit at our 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.

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!

I created Emily Novara Photography, LLC because I believe that capturing the best day of your life deserves the same attention to detail that you put into planning it. I love meeting my couples, hearing all about their love stories, getting to know them - like truly getting to know them (most of my brides consider me one of their friends!). My brides trust I understand their vision and are able to enjoy their wedding day because of the communication leading up to it.

Awarded Best of Zola
Emily is seriously amazing! We had an instant connection of trust and I knew our photos would be perfect. She was there for me through my entire planning process and helped guide me on any changes we needed. For our engagement photos, it was pouring rain and she had a backup plan asap. She makes the photos feel natural and nothing forced. For our wedding day, it rained yet again and Emily took charge of our wedding day. She creates a timeline for you. She was like my day of coordinator too! She came prepared with everything and anything you need. She made sure the day flowed as smooth as possible. Our wedding wouldn’t have been what it was, without her! We love Emily!!

  • Serves Venice, IL

I have been a wedding photographer since 2011 & love being a part of my couple's lives. I enjoy getting to know clients on a personal level so I can really document who they are as people & as a couple. I am one of those people who rarely meets a stranger & love becoming friends with new people wherever I go. On a personal level, I have the cutest mini Aussie who is my pride & joy! I am close with my family & have some of the most wonderful friends.

New to St. Louis and planning a wedding was a stressful combination. We did not know what vendors to book for our wedding day, or have any family or friends in the area with recommendations, so we went with a company called George Street Photo and Video. Thank God we did, because they put us in touch with Brooke who went above and beyond my wildest dreams!!!! From day one, Brooke was a joy to work with. Neither my husband or I had been in front of a camera before for any type of photoshoot, and we felt awkward and uncomfortable ... for about 2 seconds. Brooke made us laugh, talked us through poses and how to make them look natural, and took a lot of time and care to get to know us. Needless to say, we were thrilled with her work and went into the wedding day feeling calm and confident that she would capture our day perfectly. Between the engagement shoot and the wedding, Brooke was easy to get a hold of via text and email. She is responsive and full of excellent ideas. With 100 weddings under her belt, she has a wealth of knowledge. TRUST HER to make decisions, and she will blow your mind with the final proofs. She gets to know you intimately, finding out what matters most to you (like family backstories and tradition) and what your vision is. Best yet, she is able to execute it with precision amidst the chaos of wedding day. Her kindness, passion for photography and storytelling through this medium, and organization skills are unmatched. She is the kindest soul, and someone I hope to stay in touch with to photograph life's greatest moments in the years to come. Brooke, thank you for everything. You are one of a kind, and we are blessed to have met you!!!

Lover of all things photography. I have been a photographer for over 10 years and love what we do. I have an amazing team that helps me out. My husband also second shoots with me. I like to say you get two professionals for the price of one. I try to offer quality at a reasonable cost. I know photography can be daunting for some people and my goal is always to put people at ease.

Timeless Imagery & Media were the most excellent wedding photographers we could have hoped for. Their communication style was superb - they provided beautiful guidance and direction that made us feel at ease throughout the day. The quality of their work and storytelling was of the highest caliber, capturing all the special moments and details that made our wedding day so unique and memorable. They helped us stay on time and knew exactly when to step in to take photos and when to let us enjoy the celebration. We couldn't imagine our day without this talented and caring team, and we would 100% hire them again in a heartbeat.

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.

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.

Charley and her team were impeccable. They coordinated with our vendors, wedding party, and family members, so that we didn't have to respond to a thousand messages. Her team was present, friendly, and in full problem-solving mode as we got ready that morning. Her emergency kit came in handy, and she even steamed my dress for me while I got my makeup done. To say that they go above and beyond is an understatement. They tied ties, pinned corsages, tracked down missing earrings, anything and everything that needed to be handled was done so. She was worth every penny and I highly recommend her team to any couple looking for a seamless wedding day.

Our highly experienced St. Louis DJ's pay attention to every detail of your wedding and prioritize the most important things to you. We are there to ensure an evening you can enjoy with your guests, have fun and dance the night away "Stress Free". Though we are a new advertiser on Zola as of November 2024, Elite Pro DJ has hundreds of 5-star reviews on other various wedding websites and Google. Reliable, premium quality and fully accredited by the BBB with a long standing A+ rating. We are not a franchise or nationwide company. We are a smaller St. Louis DJ company with a very select group of highly qualified wedding DJs.

I cannot say enough good things about our DJ (Jon)! My now husband and I had some concerns regarding some of our family members and we discussed them with Jon prior to the event. Jon respected our wishes and was so professional about everything. He handled things extremely well. We had an issue with the pastor who married us. We had asked the pastor a week or two prior to the wedding if he would at least come by the reception hall to say the blessing at the wedding (He said yes at the time.), and he no-showed. Jon had announced that the pastor would come up and say the blessing, and of course there was radio silence because we quickly realized the pastor wasn’t there. Once we told Jon that he didn’t show up, Jon said a quick blessing and our meal began. We started the dances, and we could not keep people off of the dance floor. Jon kept pace with the crowd so well and everyone had such a blast! What my husband and I didn’t realize at the time was that my husband’s Uncle Joe had a surprise song picked out for us as well as green Irish polo shirts made for all of us (inside joke) and we essentially had a bit of a flash mob at our wedding. Kudos to Jon for going along with his idea! That was so funny and it made our wedding so special. Overall, it was a wonderful evening and I truly hope every couple is blessed with a DJ like Jon. I don’t think he could have done anything better honestly. You will not find a better DJ in the St. Louis / Metro East area! Thanks Jon!

  • Photographer
  • Classic style

  • Serves Venice, 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!

  • Serves Venice, 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!

We were married at Laumeier Sculpture Park in 1999, so when our 25th Silver Anniversary rolled around this year we decided to do it again!! This park has always been a favorite of ours since high school - so to return to the original spot meant so much to us. The staff at Laumeier are just amazing! They were quick with responses to questions and went above and beyond with the planning. We live out of town and they were gracious enough to meet with me when I came to town a few weeks before to walk through everything ahead of time. The day of, the staff did everything possible to accommodate our wishes and be sure other park goers knew that the space was saved for a wedding. We just cannot say enough about this park and venue for weddings. Beautiful setting, easy to access for all the guests and top notch staff - hopefully we will do it again when the Golden Anniversary comes around!! If you’re thinking of holding a wedding here, please do!! It is a magical place and photos after are so much fun!

Not only did Sollie capture our laid back personalities and informal wishes, but those of our dogs that of course we had to include too! We were able to chase sunlight and our photos are beyond everything I ever imagined! Our families and friends were thrilled with our photos we shared and said they captured our love and personalities perfectly.

Preston’s video so perfectly captured our day - two years later, we still look back at it and tear up and remember all the magical details. We had to replay our wedding in four weeks during the thick of the pandemic and he brought a piece of calm and logic that we are grateful for. He also accommodated our tiny number of notes on the first draft beautifully. He was professional, kind, and an asset to the whole experience. Hire him!

Courtney Lee Photography

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,500
  • Serves Venice, IL

My name is Courtney and I am a wedding and portrait photographer based in the midwest of the United States and available for work worldwide. My inspirations and approach to my work are largely influenced by my studies in filmmaking, my deep appreciation for the nostalgic, my curiosity for nuance, and my strong personal relationship with love and friendship.

Awarded Best of Zola
Courtney is by far my favorite wedding photographer in the midwest region. She is the full package - low-key, relaxing to be around, friendly, and a brilliant creative genius. :) If you create the day, she is there to capture it in all of its glory: head down, behind the lens, sneaking all of those behind-the-scenes- moments you will hold dear. She is a skilled portrait photographer but doesn't forget the details. She is caring to her clients and fellow vendors. By the end of the day, you'll be asking for her number so you can go out for drinks next week. She is like the friend you've always known, yet she is able to keep her professionalism high all day. When you get your photos delivered... you'll know exactly what I mean! Hire her!!

We absolutely LOVED working with Grbic Events. Lejla (the wedding coordinator) was so fabulous and helped the day run as smoothly as possible. She went above and beyond to make sure my wedding vision came fruition. The night of the event she was out of the floor and her team was constantly checking in and making sure everyone had what they needed. The team was so great to work with and I would 10/10 recommend this event space for any event. The event space is gorgeous and the outdoor area really helps accommodate for large weddings. We had about 300 people and it never felt too full or crowded. We got so many compliments on the food. The food was delicious and everyone loved that it was a little different than typical wedding food. This event space is spectacular and I would highly recommend it to any bride!

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.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Unique barn setting
  • Natural elegance with open spaces
  • Creates a sense of togetherness

Venue considerations

  • Does not allow pets
  • Requires outside catering services

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!
