This is where Charles and Mason took their engagement photos! A lovely botanical garden with a few climate controlled greenhouses, and extensive gardens to walk through! Make sure to check out the café and gift shop inside the main building!
This is where Charles and Mason took their "cool" engagement photos. It is a lovely park to walk through, check out the different gazebos, and visit the water fowl at the main fountain. There is a children's playground here for those who may have kids!
Charles and Mason drive by Bevo Mill almost everyday and love to play, "is she spinnin?". This includes: Driving by the mill and seeing if she is spinnin. If she is you say, "she's spinnin!". If she isn't you say, "not spinnin...".
This is where our reception will be! If you're a local go check it out early! If you're only in town for the wedding, well you're in luck!
Charles and I love Steve's Hot Dogs! They have regular beef hot dogs and they have Vegan Hot dogs!! Their fries are the best!!
Charles's go-to dog is the St. Louis Style (Vegan).
Mason's go-to dog is the Chili Cheese Dog (Vegan with Fried Onions).
Charles and Mason love Terror Tacos!! All of food is served as a vegeterian friendly item! So nothing has meat in it!
Charles's go-to taco: Hatch Slingin' Slasher Burrito
Mason's go-to item: The Behemoth or The Citrus Mistress (Behemoth is a secret menu item..)
Mason has been working at Cafe Dolce for the summer! Lovely place to hang out on the patio or sit inside and sip an espresso.
Charles's go-to order: Caramel Latte w/ oat milk and a cheese danish.
Mason's go-to order: Honeycomb & Lavender Latte w/oat milk, a cheese kolachy & an chocolate dipped almond crescent.
Try the cannoli!!!
Charles and Mason visit this shop to buy Magic the Gathering Cards, Dungeons and Dragons items and to play Magic the Gathering with others!
They sell SO many cool board games, accessories and the employees are great to talk with!
The Delmar Loop is a wonderful place for families, couples and friends! It is a street with restaurants, shops and activities on either side of the street up and down over 5 blocks!
Charles and I love going to Blueberry Hill for dinner and darts, or stopping by Vintage Vinyl to buy some records or cassette tapes. We also love Wizards Wagon (already on our list) for games and dice!
Lone Elk State Park is one of a kind! Drive through the park and experience elk, bison and maybe even some bald eagles! You can also hop out of the car and explore the walking trails in the elk section of the park, not the bison section!
Towards the entrance of the park there is a bird observation tower with a spiral staircase! We recommend stopping and hopping out to check out the view!
Mason was proposed to while wearing her malt shop sweatshirt!!!
Mason worked at The Malt Shop during high school and the owner has been a long time friend of her family! We encourage you to go support a local business and enjoy some grilled food and ice cream!
When Mason worked there her signature dish was a vanilla sundae with caramel and bacon bits! She's vegetarian now, but I'm sure some of you would enjoy it!
