A Botanical Summer Wedding at Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis

This botanical summer wedding at Bellerive Country Club in St. Louis was a night of whimsical celebration!

Bellerive Country Club is a golf country club located in Town and Country, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis, Missouri. Bellerive is also considered one of the “big four” old-line elite St. Louis clubs. Side by side with Westwood Country Club, Old Warson Country Club, and St. Louis Country Club.

Furthermore, Bellerive has established itself as one of the premier venues for professional golf championships in the Midwest. Having hosted three major championships: The U.S. Open in 1965, and the PGA Championship in 1992 and 2018. But, the expansive event spaces inside the country club offer a refined option for weddings and events ranging in size from medium to large.

You’ll find a Bellerive Country Club wedding to have gorgeous garden settings, delicious food, and concierge-level service from start to finish. Thus making Bellerive a chic option for a modern meets classic St. Louis wedding. As a wedding photographer, I love that Bellerive offers expansive open-air green space. Consequently allowing plenty of light to blanket the outdoor ceremony location. Big skies made an uncluttered backdrop and removed any distractions from the gorgeous floral arch at this summertime wedding.

Without losing an old-time feel, I was able to capture a fresh take on this classic venue. The cozy dining area oozes sophistication. Heaps of bountiful fresh floral garland line the guest’s tables and spill onto the floor with flickering candles creating ambiance and soft shadows. The band takes the stage to enchant the crowd with live music on a stage lit with innumerable bulbs. And when it’s time to make a grand exit, Bellerieve’s staircase leads from the patio down to the road. All in all, making the most ideal location for a sparkler exit with fireworks, as the bride and groom catch a ride in a vintage getaway car!
