SqWires Annex & Front Room

everything went smoothly on the day itself. Stephanie, Kieran and I cannot thank you enough for everything you did to make our wedding so beautiful! We cannot recommend SqWires enough, the venue was gorgeous, the food was great, and everyone involved was so helpful!

cut out as much room for error. Sqwires had their own airbnbs across the street from the venue. (Although, I do believe they sold them now). We booked both houses so the bridesmaids and groomsmen could each take one. Our family and friends were able to book an airbnb in the area which was much cheaper than hotel blocks too. Stephanie helped me make a timeline and chose our table decorations over a year in advance. She also offered to use their own flower person to make our bouquets and decorations! I decided to make my own but was so shocked at all the details Sqwires was able to organize and handle for us. We planned to have our ceremony down the street at Lafayette park then the reception at sqwires. Sqwires has a plan where they can set up the park with their own equipment and take it down for you! We had multiple “disasters” leading up to the wedding. My husband and I both had car issues. Our dj quit the day of, and there was rain in the forecast forcing us to move the ceremony inside at sqwires. Stephanie and her team executed such resilience and professionalism. It took all the stress off of my husband and I and allowed us to have the perfect wedding day. Another side note, many people raved about the food and how amazing it was. Most weddings, the food is over priced and just average. But sqwires has amazing food. Compared to other venues in downtown STL area, it was much more affordable as well.

t every aspect of our wedding was flawlessly executed. Their professionalism and responsiveness made the entire process stress-free and enjoyable. The ambiance of the venue was absolutely perfect—elegant, romantic, and inviting. The décor was stunning, creating a breathtaking backdrop for our special day. Every detail, from the floral arrangements to the lighting & fireplace contributed to an unforgettable atmosphere. The food exceeded our expectations in every way. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor, impressing all of our guests. Overall, SqWire provided a seamless and magical wedding experience. If you’re looking for a small venue with impeccable service, a gorgeous setting, and top-tier cuisine, this is the perfect choice!

it was one of the least stressful and most fun weddings they had been a part of! We can’t thank SqWires enough for helping to make our day so perfect!

ecommend for any celebration and or party!! Thank you again !!

being overpriced. We ended up having about 113 guests and Annex was able to accommodate that perfectly. Stephanie was a joy to work with! She's extremely knowledgeable about the industry and was able to assist me through the entire wedding planning process. My original plan was to have the ceremony outdoors at Lafayette park, however the weather day of made those plans impossible. Stephanie and her staff were able to move the ceremony indoors and made the space so beautiful I wasn't even sad about the last minute location change. The food was amazing! Its not the usual wedding food and we've gotten so many compliments. They have so many choices and it made planning so much easier to not have to book an outside caterer. I was worried about the guests I would have to seat on the mezzanine, but it turned into a hang out place for people who don't enjoy the usual wedding dancing and people loved it. The staff frequently checked in with me and my husband to make sure everything was perfect and we were happy it. It was truly a wonderful experience from start to finish, and I highly recommend this venue for your wedding!

o had used their services for her wedding the year prior. After doing much research, communication between myself and the vendor was a breeze. I was sold on all the accommodations that were included with the package. We decided with an evening Saturday ceremony taken place at the Gratto in Lafayette Park. The process for securing our spot at the park was thoroughly explained and easily to obtain. It was surprising to learn it included the bridge and pond that’s surrounded by beautiful scenery, ducks, and my absolute favorite two swans. This was the perfect spot for our wedding. Bonus part is the venue staff sets up the chairs, podiums, and other necessities needed for your big day. This also includes arbors, drapings and other decorations. The cocktail hour and reception took place inside the SqWires Annex. This space is so beautiful with a romantic vintage feel that includes a main level and upstairs. The venue completely provides all the decorations including faux florals which you have about six themes you can choose from. You can add any personal items if you like such as a wishing well box, signage’s, or pictures. We chose the buffet style which included two salads, three sides, and two entrees which were all very delicious! I’m still receiving many compliments from my guests about the venue space and food. The cocktail hour including one signature drink and three appetizers. Also in this package included 4-hours of open bar! Who can beat that? The best part is this venue has an Annex House available for the day of—all-inclusive! This means complimentary breakfast, fully stocked house such as you would see in an AirBnB, and many last minute items you may need for the big day. It really was a one stop shop not only for my guests but my bridal party as well. Adding this house was an additional fee but it well worth it. I promise you will not be disappointed. I personally added the house for the whole weekend (Friday to Sunday morning). A great way to have a bachelorette party the night before, a place to get ready the day of, and a place for my husband and myself to stay the night till the following morning. I highly recommend!!! Despite having to speak with two different coordinators during the initial process, I was completely blown away by the new coordinator, Stephanie, for completely taking charge and seeing to our vision is better than fantastic! Her communication, professionalism, and eager to please customer service absolutely made our day even more special. Phenomenal is a better choice of words. All my vendors and guests raved so much about Stephanie and her phenomenal services. That’s how amazing she and the staff were. I really appreciate that the venue really connects with you through this whole process. They really want to hear you and give you everything that you ever dreamed for your special day. I keep replaying everything from start to finish with the biggest smile on my face. I can always look back and say, “Wow, we really did this!”. Our wedding here at SqWires with no regrets, only wonderful memories. So what are you waiting for? Please go on their website and look at all your options. You won’t be disappointed. Your future wedding venue space is waiting for you at SqWires!
