Fantastic Wedding Reception Venue

Our wedding at the Forest Park Golf Club was absolutely outstanding! Lexi was stellar helping us when we first visited, learning about the different package options, and finding out that we could make the dream of having our wedding reception in Forest Park come true!

Maddie did more than we could ever have hoped for as our coordinator, helping us with decorating ideas, arranging all of the details, and getting everything set up perfectly on the day of the reception. We made some additions the week of the wedding that the club accommodated seamlessly. They made everything as easy as it could have been.


Our photographer was in an accident on the wedding day (oh no!) which pushed back the timing of the wedding. We arrived later than planned at the reception. Maddie was waiting outside with golf carts so we could immediately dash away for pictures at the Grand Basin- after she made a quick dash into the club to bring out some emergency finger nail tools! And the pictures around the Grand Basin: sunset reflecting on the water behind us… so beautiful!

And the food! The drinks! The service! Everything was absolutely outstanding. Me and my bride never got our own drinks- the servers were frequently asking us for anything we would like. It truly exceeded the dreams we had of what our Forest Park wedding reception could be!

5 Stars Isn't Enough

We could not have asked for a more perfect reception venue than Forest Park Golf Course, and so much of that comes down to the incredible team behind it. Our journey began when we toured the venue and met Lexie. From that very first conversation, she made us feel like our vision for the day would truly come to life — and that feeling is exactly what led us to book. Shortly after, we began working with Tram-Anh, and she was nothing short of amazing. She answered every question promptly, made us feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire planning process, and brought such a positive, reassuring energy to every interaction. We always felt like we were in the best possible hands. Because of the trust they built with us, we never had to worry about a single thing on our wedding day — we just got to be present and enjoy every moment. And enjoy it we did. The space itself is stunning, the food and beverage service was outstanding, and the flow of the entire evening was seamless. Our guests were blown away. Lexie, Tram-Anh, and the entire Forest Park Golf Course team went above and beyond our expectations in every way. If you are searching for a reception venue in the St. Louis area that delivers on atmosphere, service, and food — look no further. We are so grateful we chose this special place for our day

11/7/25 Reception

Forest Park Golf Course was the most beautiful venue for our reception! The food was incredible, the decorations were gorgeous, but most of all, I’d like to shout out our most AMAZING wedding coordinator, Maddie. She made sure everything was just as we wanted it and ensured day of (and basically the whole planning process) was stress free! She was so helpful, so kind and patient with us. We can not thank her enough. She made our entire event happen and we are eternally grateful! Thanks FOPO & Maddie! :)

Knobloch Wedding!

Where do we even begin? Our entire wedding experience with Forest Park Golf Course was nothing short of amazing, from our very first meeting to the final moments of the reception.

Our journey started when we met with Lexi for a tour and package review—she sold us immediately! Her warmth and professionalism set the perfect tone.

Once the contract was signed, we were assigned a Venue Coordinator, Maddie. Maddie was phenomenal. She helped us select every detail and truly brought our vision to life. She was always quick to respond to our many questions, and her feedback and advice were invaluable throughout the entire planning process. She was an absolute dream to work with!

On the day of the wedding, Maddie was truly on top of everything, ensuring our reception timeline flowed perfectly and seamlessly.

Beyond the incredible service, the venue itself is beautiful, and the room looked stunning for our reception. And the food? It was absolutely amazing! We are still receiving compliments almost a week later—people simply cannot stop talking about how great the meal was.

We would pick Forest Park Golf Course again and again, and recommend them endlessly. Thank you, Maddie and the entire team, for making our wedding dream a reality!

Could not be one bit happier.

We were beyond thrilled with our wedding reception at the Forest Park Golf Course. The entire team, lead by our wedding planner Tram-Anh were energetic, thoughtful, organized, and service oriented. The food was AMAZING. We received so many compliments on the food and the service, some saying emphatically that it was the best wedding food and selection they 've ever had. We could not agree more. We will be back to work with them again.

The perfect wedding venue!!

I am so glad we chose Forest Park Golf Course for our wedding ceremony and reception! Along with being a beautiful venue, the food and drinks are spectacular (guests are still raving about these a month later), and the team is so knowledgable, accommodating, and dependable! Tram-Anh was the absolute best coordinator I could ask for!! I always felt reassured and that I was in good hands. She patiently answered all of my questions/requests and set up our decorations so beautifully! She also made us feel so comfortable and at ease during our wedding—she was meant to do this job!! Booking this venue was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

Best wedding ever!!!

Forest Park Golf Course was an easy choice for us. Everything is so organized and the package details are clear. You get the whole package here including ceremony space, reception, food, bar, and so much more! They also provide a “preferred vendors” list which helped tremendously to narrow down our other vendor choices.

Maddie was our venue coordinator and she was very easy to work with! She was always quick to respond and keep us in the loop on things. Another great part of this venue is that they will set up your decorations for you, you just need to drop off your stuff the week before and they will take care of the rest!

We got a lot of compliments from guests on how much fun they had at our wedding and how wonderful the food was. We loved our wedding day are so glad we went with Forest Park Golf Course!

Best venue ever!!

This venue is the BEST and I couldn’t be any happier that we chose it for our wedding reception. Tram-Anh was an incredible wedding coordinator and was our saving grace through the entire planning process. The venue is beautiful, the food was delicious (many said it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had), and the team goes above and beyond to make all your dreams and visions for the day come true!

Gorgeous venue, perfect day!

After touring and searching through all the venues St. Louis has to offer, we are so happy that we went through Forest Park for our wedding. Tram-Anh was our wedding coordinator and she was so wonderful. Very sweet, organized, answered all of questions that would pop up very thoroughly, and was fantastic in every way the day of. The food and drinks were top tier and have since heard so many compliments on it being “the best meal at a wedding I have ever had.” The ceremony space was beautiful with all of the flowers, greenery, and the water behind- and I loved having all the events of the day at the same location (we had many who traveled in). My vision was executed perfectly and had no reservations leading up to it that it would turn out anything but. Forest Park was unfortunately hit by a tornado just 2 weekends before our wedding and they could not have worked harder to make the outdoor space look as if nothing had just happened. Tram-Anh and her team will make you feel confident and taken care from the planning beginning stages all the way through to your special day. I wish I could relive this day again and again!

Could not have asked for better!

I cannot say enough about the team at Forest Park Golf Course! From the start they were at my side asking if I needed help with anything along the way and made sure that every detail was perfect leading up to our big day. We had gorgeous greenery hanging from the ceilings that their team had hung for us, and it made us feel like we had our own perfect garden just like we wanted. The service was incredible and their team works like a well oiled machine that just keeps getting better. The culinary staff blew our guests out of the water! We still have guests almost three months later tell us it was the best meal they have had all year! Everyone on staff at Forest Park made us feel like we were family and we had the best day because of them. Our whiskey and tequila tasting on the veranda was also a huge hit! Lexi, Tram-Anh, Michael, Charley and the entire culinary team all went above and beyond for us and we could not be more thankful for them. We love you guys!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
