Fall is one of the most romantic seasons to get married in St. Louis. The weather is cooler, the colors are vibrant, and golden hour light is at its best. If you’re dreaming of a wedding that embraces the season, here are five wedding venues that bring fall’s charm to life. Shooting weddings in the fall is one of my favorites, and these venues really let the natural season shine through.

1. Silver Oaks Chateau

Set against a wooded backdrop, Silver Oaks Chateau is a romantic French-inspired estate designed to wow. The grounds absolutely glow in the fall, with trees bursting in reds and golds, stone terraces, and elegant indoor spaces that feel like something out of a European countryside dream. Perfect for couples who want nature and refinement.

2. Knotting Hills

Knotting Hills blends modern luxury with a peaceful countryside feel. Their rolling hills and private wooded areas create a stunning fall canvas. The indoor reception hall features floor-to-ceiling windows so your guests can enjoy the sunset and foliage even after the sun dips below the trees. It’s a hidden gem for a fall celebration.

3. The Larimore

This charming estate features historic architecture surrounded by mature trees and manicured lawns. In the fall, it transforms into a cozy, colorful haven. The outdoor ceremony garden is especially dreamy in October, with natural foliage adding to the already picturesque backdrop. It’s absolutely STUNNING any time of year.

4. The Wild Carrot

While it’s technically an indoor venue, The Wild Carrot offers great access to Tower Grove Park: one of the best local spots for fall wedding portraits. Many couples choose to do a first look or bridal party shots in the park before heading into the urban, industrial-chic space for the reception. It’s the best of both worlds.

5. Four Seasons St. Louis

If you’re looking for fall views in the heart of the city, the Four Seasons rooftop terrace delivers. From the golden skyline to the Arch at sunset, it offers a luxurious outdoor ceremony option with indoor backup steps away. The clean aesthetic makes it easy to bring in fall tones without feeling too themed. You can really make this one your own. Plus, many of the city’s beautiful parks are nearby!

Final Thoughts

Fall weddings thrive on natural beauty, and these venues make the most of it. Whether you’re surrounded by trees in the countryside or catching golden hour on a rooftop, the right location can elevate your wedding experience and your photos.

As a photographer, I love when a couple chooses a venue that allows the day to flow naturally from one gorgeous backdrop to the next.
