The Hilton St. Louis at the Ballpark is hands down THE BEST place in St. Louis to host your wedding reception! 2.5 years ago when my now husband and I were looking at venues, we fell in love with Ali and the Hilton immediately! The venue itself... is breathtaking with remarkable floor to ceiling windows that show a picturesque view of downtown that truly can't be beat! In addition, the gold chairs, pristine linens, and warm uplighting transformed the room into pure elegance, and the flow from cocktail hour to dinner was seamless! As an event planner, Ali spoke our language from the beginning and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was everything we dreamed of and more (spoiler alert: it was even better than we could have ever imagined thanks to her and her staff)! The professionalism, punctuality, and overall service was top quality! I am still receiving compliments on how delicious the food was, how romantic the ambiance was, and how remarkable the bartenders were to remember everyone's drink of choice! As a bride and groom, Ali was our go to person to help us breathe, pause the day, and take in the special moments while she assured us everything was taken care of and that we were in good hands! I still have tears in my eyes thinking of the little surprises she provided us that truly made a lasting impact! On top of it, she exceeded our expectations by going that extra step and making sure we were always well taken care of whether it be having plenty of food or drink or finding safety pins to help bustle my dress! In these unforeseen times, we were highly impressed and could not have felt safer by all of the COVID precautions the staff followed in regards to mask wearing, plexiglass partitions at the bar, spacing the dance floor 6 feet from the stage with the band, etc. Looking back on our wedding day, I would not change a single moment and will forever be grateful for Ali and the unforgettable experience we had at the Hilton!
