Things To Do
Clayton Art Fair
Our wedding is the same weekend as the Clayton Art Festival—one of the top juried art fairs in the country! Step outside your hotel and enjoy booths by more than 200 artists, food from local restaurants and live music.
Forest Park
Enjoy Forest Park, one of our favorite place to spend time in St. Louis! Home to world-class attractions – most of which are free! – it’s considered one of the best urban parks in the country. You can visit the Missouri History Museum, Saint Louis Art Museum, Saint Louis Science Center and the Saint Louis Zoo. The park has more than 30 miles of walking and biking trails, plus tennis courts, raquetball courts and a skating rink. Our rehearsal dinner is at the Boathouse in this beautiful park!
City Museum
Go crazy at this super fun adult playground! Housed in the 600,000 sq. ft. former International Shoe Company, the museum is an eclectic mixture of playground, fun house, surrealistic pavilion and architectural marvel made out of unique, found objects. Just make sure you save some energy for the wedding!
The Gateway Arch
Take a tram ride to the top of the Gateway Arch, a 630-foot monument and national park. It takes four minutes to ascend to the top where small windows reveal spectacular views of the Old Courthouse, downtown St. Louis and beyond to the west, and the Mississippi River and Illinois to the east. Back on the ground, explore the on-site museum which traces more than 200 years of our region’s history.
