Tess & Jack’s wedding at 612 North was the perfect mix of timeless elegance and modern city vibes. From the moment we started the day at the Four Seasons to ending the night under twinkle lights and brick walls, it was nonstop magic! And with the St. Louis Arch peeking in from just about every angle? You couldn’t have asked for a better backdrop!
Every piece of Tess’s wedding morning felt so her, from the lace-detailed heels wrapped with pearls to the dainty gold and pearl jewelry she’d picked out. The invites had just the right touch of sophistication, pairing gold foil lettering with a minimal design. Florals were lush white roses and hydrangeas with pops of greenery, the perfect complement to the romantic-industrial feel of a wedding at 612 North. And let’s just say, those candlelit reception tables? Absolutely stole the show!
The suite at the Four Seasons was buzzing with laughter, coffee in hand, and that it’s really happening energy! Tess wore a beautiful white pj set and her bridesmaids wore matching stripped baby blue and white pajamas while cozying up on the bed for a few group photos. Her mom helped with the final touches, buttoning the gown and fastening her bracelet, while the St. Louis skyline stretched out behind them! Meanwhile, Jack was looking sharp in a classic black tux, straightening his bow tie and glancing out the window like he couldn’t wait to see her.
The rooftop at the Four Seasons gave us the moment, Tess stepping up behind Jack, the Arch towering in the background, and that look on his face when he turned around. The wind even played along, catching Tess’s veil for those cinematic, just-married-soap-opera-scene shots. They laughed, they hugged, they breathed it all in before heading off to portraits!
We traded the skyline for greenery and strolled through Lafayette Park for their couple and wedding party portraits. The soft sage dresses popped against the lush backdrop, and the guys in black tuxes brought that classic, formal balance. Tess and Jack’s smiles were constant, the kind that come from finally being together on the big day. This crew knew how to make an entrance. From popping champagne in the street to cheering each other on during portraits, the wedding party brought all the hype. The brick alleys around 612 North gave us that urban, celebratory backdrop that matched their energy perfectly!
The loft ceremony space was flooded with natural light and framed by brick walls and white draping. Greenery and white blooms lined the aisle and flanked the altar. As Tess walked toward Jack, you could see the emotion hit, a mix of happy tears and the biggest smiles. Their vows were heartfelt and personal, and when they shared their first kiss, the entire room erupted.
Walking into the reception felt like stepping into a romantic dinner party with a modern twist. Long farm tables were covered in white linens, candles flickered in glass holders, and every table had its own lush floral arrangement. Guests toasted with heartfelt speeches, and Tess and Jack cut into a vintage-inspired tiered cake before opening up the dance floor. The party did not slow down. Between group singalongs, twirls, and champagne toasts on the dance floor, it was the perfect ending to a day that felt completely theirs. A wedding at 612 North with this kind of energy? Absolute perfection!
