This is a free street festival close to downtown with food, drinks, and performers. If you are looking for something to do between the wedding and reception, this would be a great option!
The St. Louis zoo is absolutely incredible and admission is completely free! It is also very close to downtown, so it would be an option for entertainment between the wedding and reception if the weather is nice.
The city museum is a super cool urban museum that exhibits repurposed industrial and architectural items. It's really fun, but note that there is an admission fee.
If you are from out of town, the Arch is a must-see! The grounds have been completely renovated, along with the Museum of Westward Expansion, which is free to visit. You can also pay to go to the top of the arch for beautiful views of the city and river.
The Soulard Farmers Market is almost next door to our church, and will be open from 7-5:30 on the day of the wedding. They have both food and craft vendors!
