If you’re looking for an absolutely magical wedding venue in St. Louis, the Jewel Box is it, filled with tons of greenery and the most romantic, giant glass ceiling.
Jewel Box Wedding
Right in the heart of Forest Park, the Jewel Box is one of those places that will stop you in your tracks, and its iconic here in St. Louis. It’s a greenhouse, but not the kind you’re thinking of — this one has sky-high glass walls, tropical plants everywhere, and the most romantic setting that’s perfect for a wedding.
The ceremony space sits under tall palms, which gives it a relaxed, almost destination feel without ever leaving St. Louis. And outside are beautiful gardens and cool architecture that make it just as stunning. If you’re going for a wedding that feels both unique and totally gorgeous, this spot’s hard to beat!
Planning a Wedding at Jewel Box
The Jewel Box is available for wedding ceremonies in 1 1/2 hour increments on Fridays through Sundays, and receptions from 5 pm to 10 pm on Sunday through Thursday, and 6 pm to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. It has a max capacity of 250 people for a ceremony, and for receptions with a dance floor the capacity is 140. With the rental fee, there are 10 60″ round tables and 250 chairs included. You can get more details about the space on their website!
St. Louis Union Station
For some added fun with their wedding photos, we made a stop at St. Louis Union Station Hotel, one of my favorite locations here in St. Louis! The architecture on the outside looks like something straight from Europe, and it creates a truly gorgeous backdrop. It has multiple spots for capturing beautiful photos, so you can have a variety for wedding party portraits, or some of just the two of you. The interior is absolutely breathtaking, and would make an ideal location for an indoor wedding during those chillier months!
