Bridgette + Ryan | A Wedding at Main Street Abbey in Saint Louis

Bridgette and Ryan’s wedding day could not have been any more beautiful. This wonderful couple exchanged their vows in front of friends and family at Main Street Abbey, a renovated church that features all-white walls, high ceilings, ornate stained glass, and plenty of charm. This wedding venue is located just outside of Saint Louis, Missouri, which makes it an incredibly convenient place to celebrate. Bridgette chose a timeless color palette, full of lush foliage and white blooms. For extra pizazz, she selected gorgeous lighting schemes and lighting patterns for her venue.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • The bride embraced her Irish heritage completely for their wedding. They had a bagpipe player perform for their ceremony and their grand entrance. As a symbol of two becoming one, the two of them chose an Irish Handfasting Ceremony as their symbol of unification.

  • In lieu of cake, the couple chose to provide their guests with an entire spread of delicious desserts, including chocolate-covered Oreos, canoles, brownies, and, in true Saint Louis fashion, ooey gooey butter cake.

  • For decor, the couple chose to have two ice sculpture installations designed. They were absolutely stunning centerpieces for the cocktail space and the main reception space.

We provided them with ongoing planning guidance, attended a variety of planning meetings, created a detailed timeline, facilitated the rehearsal, managed their wedding day, and so much more. We wish this amazing couple the most blessed marriage. Thank you both for inviting Plan it Terra to be part of your special day.

Hey, I’m Terra!

Born and raised in Missouri, I’m a grateful wife and dog mom to my rescue pups, Hildi & Lola. I’m a true believer in the pursuit of bold dreams, learning from mistakes, and staying curious.

I'm a girl that lives in her Chacos during the summer, and I'm typically always wearing lipstick. Yes, red is my preference! When I'm not helping engaged couples plan weddings, you'll find me on stage teaching Jazzercise classes. Needless to say, creating engaging experiences that leave people feeling good afterwards is my passion. Seriously!

I’ve created this blog and my wedding packages to empower you to plan an awesome wedding day and put all of the stress and obligations straight into the dumpster! Now that sounds like a party.
