Outdoor Wedding Venues
So you've been on a hunt, looking for a place to have your wedding, somewhere where you can have a beautiful backdrop of the river, bluffs, or greenery. Chances are pretty good that your DJ has been to most of these places and has good knowledge of things like: "Is there cover if it rains?", "Is this a really windy spot where not even hairpins and moose can hold a simple bun together?", "Is there power available for music and microphones?", "Does this location have enough room for 200+ people?", "Is there any/enough parking?", "Where will my grandparents sit?". An experienced DJ or wedding planner can answer these questions pretty easily.
You are pretty safe to assume that any winery, public park, or golf course will allow you to have your wedding at their facility however if you can't think of them all or need some ideas below is a list of venues in the greater St. Louis area that I recommend you look into if you are considereing an outdoor ceremony and/or reception.
