From the Bride… For our wedding day vision, David and I were both born and raised in St. Louis, so we decided that the historic World’s Fair Pavilion in Forest Park would be the perfect venue for our reception. We loved the open-air space, architecture and the gorgeous views from the pavilion.

As we started planning, the most important thing to us was that our wedding be a fun, loving and relaxed celebration with all of our friends and family. We were going for a classic and timeless look so we chose a palette with lots of soft and natural colors to keep it light and airy. Even though the guest list was fairly large we wanted dinner to feel intimate. We used an assortment of table sizes and shapes, low centerpieces (mix of vases and long table garland filled with italian ruscus, white polo roses, white majolica spray roses and quicksand roses), and lots of candles to achieve this look. One of our favorite details from the night was having our head table right down the center of the pavilion so we could be surrounded by all of our favorite people.
