Saint Louis is a city that has a lot of
character. From the old world 1800's style buildings to the new
modern ones, there are plenty of sites in the area to have a great
ceremony and a fabulous reception. Many of the venues and vendors in
St. Louis are very affordable when you consider the last two year's
national averages. It should be noted that full wedding planning
averages around $5000.00 nationally. However, the numbers are skewed
a bit by all of the "Day of" Coordinating services that are
considerably less. Should you have any questions and need services to
recommend venues and vendors, please reach out to us. We would be
happy to be of assistance.
