About this vendor
Situated in De Soto, MO, Arlington Event Center is a historic venue where couples can host the wedding of their dreams. The spacious building features both indoor and outdoor spaces that can be used for the sweethearts' “I dos" and their celebrations. The team is enthusiastic about seeing your ideas come to life and strive to be as accommodating as they can be.
Arlington Event Center was originally constructed in 1860 as a hotel for the railroad, which adds to the overall historic charm of the building. Throughout the center, antique details and ornate decor add to this ambience. The event spaces themselves are neutral and elegant, featuring classic architectural elements such as hardwood flooring, crown molding, and more. The hotel is situated in De Soto which is less than an hour’s drive from St. Louis. This makes the event center’s location more easily accessible to those in the larger St. Louis-metropolitan area.
A number of events can be held at Arlington Event Center in addition to the wedding. This includes engagement parties, showers, pre-wedding parties, rehearsal dinners, and more. Before swapping vows, couples can prepare for the big day in one of the get-ready rooms. Then, for dancing and dining couples can choose between indoor and outdoor spaces. Outside in the large courtyard, the pavilion provides an ideal setting for festivities to take place. Planning services are provided to make orchestrating the event more straightforward. Other services include but are not limited to catering, beverages, setup, and decorating, all intended to help make the couples' wedding ideas become a reality. A selection of rentals, such as linens and table runners, are also available. After the big day, the special couple and guests can stay the night in the overnight accommodation.

This was the best experience I’ve ever had in my life. I got married July 8, 2023 and the owners of this venue are LOVELY. they were kind, detail oriented, and professional while still being friendly. The venue has a vintage charm to it that my guests adored. We also used them for our catering, and I have not stopped receiving compliments on the dinner my guests had. We spend the night the Friday before and Saturday of our wedding, and the bridal suite was so cute along with the other rooms on the second floor. If you want a wedding that is different then everyone else’s that look the same, this is your place! They also asked us if we had any special liquor we wanted and made sure to have it at the bar. It was seriously perfect.
We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Arlington. The staff is very accommodating and meet all of our needs. My bridesmaids spent the night before the wedding and got ready in the rooms upstairs. It was amazing having everything in one location. Our ceremony was absolutely beautiful. We had our reception in the new courtyard area. It was everything we could have asked for.
