Wedding Events & Destination Weekends

The St. James has a variety of lovely private rooms and settings for your rehearsal dinner, sendoff breakfast, brunch or any other special gatherings. Give your guests the convenience of multiple events at a single location — yet it never feels like the same place twice.

Bachelor & Bachelorette Getaways

Celebrate other traditions with your closest friends at the St. James before walking down the aisle! St. James getaways range from area adventures such as hiking, biking, rock climbing, golfing and boating to onsite activities like spa packages, ArtReach painting, Pinterest craft classes, wine tasting, and shopping. Enjoy a flight of bourbon at the Port Bar after a day on the water, or sip deliciously crafted cocktails on Scarlet Kitchen & Bar patio overlooking the Mississippi River after relaxing at the spa.

How To Start Planning A Wedding?

Our banquet and ballroom options range from intimate to expansive, all designed to make your wedding joyful and unforgettable.

Intimate and ample spaces.

For small, romantic ceremonies, our Historic Lobby – with its classic pipe organ and intricate Grand Staircase – is a perfectly intimate setting. The Laurentine Room provides a beautiful river backdrop for smaller gatherings.

Designed to fit your dreams.

Every room has custom floorplans that can be configured to meet your unique wedding and reception needs. In keeping with our full-service commitment, we also have ideal spaces for engagement parties, rehearsal dinners, bridal showers, and photo shoots.
