Things To Do
The City Museum
One of our favorite spots! Patrick started his journey in the circus here and it was one of my favorite childhood places to go! Visitors have dubbed St. Louis’ City Museum many things—a warehouse of fun, a jungle gym of exploration, a playground for all ages.
The Gateway Arch
The Gateway Arch is a 630-foot monument dubbed "The Gateway to the West". It's the world's tallest arch, the tallest man-made monument in the Western Hemisphere, and Missouri's tallest accessible building. Take the tram ride to the top, or climb the stares if you dare for great views of the city we call home :)
Ted Drewes Frozen Custard
Ted Drewes has been selling frozen custard for over 80 years! Our favorite is any of the Ted’s “concrete” flavors The concrete is a malt or shake so thick that it is served upside down. Don't let the lines discourage you! They are speedy quick and well worth the wait.
St. Louis Zoo
The STL Zoo is located in right in Forest Park where our ceremony and reception will be held! It has been named the best Zoo in the country and is completely free! Definitely worth checking out.
Anheuser-Busch St. Louis Brewery
As the largest and oldest brewery site, St. Louis gives you a first-hand look into the heritage and timeless tradition Anheuser-Busch employs to brew beer in a one-of-a-kind brewery tour. Not only that but you can see the world-famous Budweiser Clydesdales at the historic stables built in 1885.
Schlafly Bottleworks
Sure, there's the Anheuser Busch tour. But how about a trip to Schlafly? You'll experience good food, good drinks, live music, and yes, free tours!
Bogart's Smokehouse
Down-home barbecue joint where crowds eat Memphis & St. Louis specialties at formica tables.
