Absolute dream

Knotting Hills was an absolute dream!! Not only are the facilities gorgeous, but the service was fantastic. Our coordinator Kaelee was excellent and was extremely helpful the day of and during the entire planning process. She took care of everything to make sure that we had the best day. After the ceremony was over, she had our signature cocktails and cocktail hour snacks waiting for us. The staff was also extremely helpful in helping my family set up and break down the reception area so that my husband and I could enjoy our night and not worry about a thing. We rented out the big house for ourselves and our bridal party the night of and it was super convenient and a great way to keep the party going. Highly highly recommend Knotting Hills and I could not imagine a more perfect place for our wedding!

Ah-maz-ing

Knotting hills was absolutely a dream. We booked before it was done being built and seeing the venue and envisioning my wedding there was easy to do with how beautiful it is. Kaelee was my day of coordinator and she was a rockstar. I would highly recommend her for your wedding. Katy at KH is spectacular as well. She is quick to respond and so helpful. The day went so smoothly and I couldn’t have asked for a better staff to assist my big day! I will definitely be going back years to come to renew vows at the place where our life began. Thank you Knotting Hills and the staff for being a 5-star venue and for making my day one I will cherish forever.

Kisena/Thomas Wedding

Absolutely amazing venue!! We knew when we booked, prior to it opening, it was going to be a gorgeous venue. Knotting Hills staff went above and beyond for all our needs. Kaelee, day of coordinator, was on top of everything. She made sure that our day was perfect. She went above and beyond and exceed our expectations. Our guests are still complimenting us on what a beautiful venue, wedding, and reception it was and how amazing the staff was. Do not think twice about booking this venue, just do it. I would highly recommend this venue for any event. Thanks Knotting Hills for making this day so perfect.

Exquisite views-True pure bliss

I had my wedding here 11/19/2021! Katy & her team made sure my wedding was perfect! From the rehearsal ( which was included) & to the decor ( which again included- they have so much to choose from! ) to keeping me on track with dinner, speeches. It was the easy stress free beautiful slice of heaven I could ever ask for!! Everyone of my guests kept asking me how I found this place && how beautiful it was! Thank you for making my day unforgettable! High class! Outstanding attention to detail with the best directors ever!! This place will always have a special place in my heart!

Forrest/Pfeiffer wedding

I had the wedding of my dreams last month and I can’t stop thinking about it. Kaelee was our wedding coordinator and she was absolutely amazing! She helped us out the entire day/ evening and made sure we were okay the whole day and night. I highly recommend this venue for your wedding. Thank you Knotting Hills!❤️

What an incredible venue!!

You'll be hard pressed to find a venue that is anywhere close to comparable with Knotting Hills within 40 minutes of downtown St. Louis!! It is absolutely gorgeous and I can't think of any ways they could even improve it! They provided all of the tables, chairs and decorations I needed which kept my floral budget well under $1K, and having the Ezra houses available for rent was so nice- many of us stayed on the property after the reception and partied into the night without worries of how to drive home or expensive Uber trips. I loved doing photos, the ceremony and the reception all in the same place so i didn't have to waste time on my wedding day crawling in and out of shuttles and limos. So worth it!!

The most perfect venue!

This was a breathtaking venue for my Sons wedding. From start to finish there was not one single problem. My ENTIRE group of attendees raved about how beautiful it was. I would give it ten stars and a AAAAA rating.

Spectacular venue & staff!

beautiful piece of land. As a wedding vendor, I get to see how things work like a fly on the wall. Katie and Michelle are very kind, attentive, and respectful to their clients and vendors. They’re just a pleasure to work with. The abundance of big windows in the venue give you a stunning views from every angle.
A 5 star venue you won’t regret!

Incredible!!

Wow! What a place! Book it now/ don’t even think twice!
We have had such a wonderful experience with my daughter and son in laws wedding. Katy and Michelle are so kind and great to work with. The staff is phenomenal. The venue is BEAUTIFUL!
We booked it before it was finished and we were blown away with each additional added feature. Just a magical place!
We experienced it in full- using the main house was perfect and so nice to be on site, so much more relaxing than a hotel. It was great to have a home base with family and friends who also stayed there. With it being just steps away from the grooms quarters many hours were spent in the pool and arcade. So much fun!
The bridal suite it so beautiful and has great functionality for stylists and great backdrops for photographers. Absolutely perfect!
Having the golf cart to move about the property was a great plus!
I can say without a doubt that my daughter’s wedding was perfect and I can’t thank Knotting Hills enough for helping make it be everything that my daughter and son in law had every dreamt of❤️❤️

The venue was absolutely stunning! You get the entire grounds for the whole day, and it did not disappoint! The bridal suite and groom’s quarters are SO FUN and beautiful, and the staff were very accommodating and helpful! We were their very first wedding and have no regrets choosing Knotting Hills!
