A Lavish Hotel Wedding

Claire and Taylor were married in St. Louis, Missouri – the city where they fell in love – in a beautiful hotel ceremony. She was in a beautiful lace gown, he in a navy suit, and the bridesmaids in fabulous mismatched dresses! With a sunny, picturesque park, the downtown city streets, and the hotel’s incredible skyline view, there were no shortage of amazing photo ops.

The reception took place in one of the hotel’s stunning ballrooms and featured lavish decor with white, gold, and teal accents. “Our favorite detail of the wedding was the gold heirloom mirror we used to display our seating arrangements,” Claire shared. “We hired a calligrapher to create the display, and included a handwritten note at the bottom of the mirror to honor Claire’s passed grandmother, who owned the heirloom.”

Claire had always loved the idea of mismatched bridesmaid dresses, and with varying shades of color and texture, she was able to pull off a beautiful natural palette!
