Wedding planners truly are the unsung heroes of the wedding industry, and this list of the best St. Louis Wedding planners are my personal loves. The thing is if the event goes absolutely perfect, everybody thinks they didn’t need the planner and if things go sideways everybody looks at the planner. But in all honesty, in my experience if everything went well its because there were a million little fires you didn’t see that they put out and if it went a little sideways it means they probably saved you from the apocalypse.

No really, a planner is worth their weight in gold. Their expertise and relationships can save you time, energy and money in the long run and most importantly stress. Every wedding planner on this list is there to help your day go so smoothly you get to be a guest at your event. And a St. Louis wedding is a thing to behold. We have the best wedding planners in the world in St Louis. And I might be a little bias, but work with me here. From morning Catholic services and evening receptions, to service and reception on a family farm, St Louis is known for its weather challenges and its need for balance and I am excited to tell you these planners are ready to make sure your wedding day is perfect for your love story.

So with no further adieu, here are the best wedding planners in St Louis Missouri

Coda Events has been blazing a trail for themselves in the St Louis Wedding Planning scene for a while. Their team handles all the curve balls St Louis weddings have to offer. During Covid they came up with a really sweet “Peace Of Mind” package that I thought was wonderfully smart and thoughtful for couples who may have decided that a planner was what they needed to get though those opening weeks of the pandemic. They are definitely a team you should check out as our world gets back on track.

My favorite thing about Altar’d Events is they have an uncanny ability to connect with their clients. It reminds me very much of how I love to work with my couples. Every thing about their events feels very couple centered, which is a delicate balance in wedding planning and I love how well Allissa and her team pull that off for their couples

Kate and Co is a nationally recognized planning firm with press in Martha Stewart Weddings and Vogue (and more) and we are lucky enough that they call St Louis home for wedding planning. Kate is one of my favorite people shes thoughtful and open and very interested in people as much as she is wedding planning. I am excited to keep watching their growth as a company and her growth as a leader in the St Louis wedding industry (and the wedding world nationally) My favorite thing about Kate + Co events is how creative and lively the decor and mood is with out feeling over bearing. They do a lovely job of creating a experience for their clients and their guests.

We hope this helps you find the planner you need for your wedding day

The biggest reason we want you to find the right planner for your day is that we want you to enjoy your wedding like a guest and if you don’t hire someone to take the reigns and releive your stress our biggest fear is you will look back on the images we create for you and only see how hard you had to work to entertain your friends and family on your big day. And its your big day, you should be free to enjoy all the people who have come to celebrate this commitment you have made with your partner. A planner makes that endlessly possible. St Louis wedding scene has so many wonderful options and we are excited to introduce you to our favorites.
