FAQs

Question

Who is invited?

Answer

Due to space limitations at our venue, only those listed on the official RSVP/invitation are invited to the wedding ceremony and reception. While we genuinely love your children, we have made the decision to host an adults-only event. We appreciate your understanding and support and we look forward to celebrating this special day with you!

Question

What is the address of the ceremony and is it accessible?

Answer

The ceremony and reception will be held at Lemp's Grand Hall, located at 1817 Cherokee St, St. Louis, MO 63118. The event is on the third floor with elevator access. The main entry way to the venue includes a small step, but is ADA accessible through the side/garage entrance to the left when facing the main entrance.

Question

Will we be outdoors for any of the events?

Answer

The welcome event will be hosted at Earthbound Brewing with the option to utilize their patio space if weather permits, or remain indoors. The ceremony and reception are both held in the same location at Lemp's Grand Hall. Weather permitting, we will host the ceremony outdoors on their rooftop patio and the move inside for the reception with the option to enjoy the patio space throughout the remainder of the event whenever you like.

Question

What are the parking options at both events?

Answer

For the welcome event at Earthbound Beer, there is both free and metered street parking available, and metered spots are free after 7pm. For our wedding ceremony and reception venue (Lemp's Grand Hall), there is a designated parking lot with an attendant. You may leave your car overnight if you are unable to drive your car home at the end of the evening and you may retrieve it in the morning.

Question

Will there be an open bar at the reception?

Answer

Yes! Beer, wine, and liquor will be available as part of our open bar package for guests at our wedding reception. We recommend utilizing ride-share apps (Uber/Lyft are readily available in STL) or planning for a designated driver so you can enjoy responsibly. :) You can also leave your car in the parking lot for the venue overnight and get it in the morning if needed.

Question

Are we changing our last names?

Answer

We are not changing our names at this time- we will remain Stephen Lightle and Emily Lombardo. :)

Question

Is it Steve, Stephen, or Steven?

Answer

While the groom answers to both Stephen and Steve equally, it is never spelled Steven. Emily knows this and NEVER mixes it up on important wedding emails to their guests. ;)
