The main banquet hall is spacious enough for a big crowd and band, the kitchen is large, the bar/lounge area is very nice and comfortable, and the bathrooms were immaculate.

We couldn't be happier with our choice to go with SJMBC Celebration 2 Center for our event and 100% recommend it.

From the little details to the main things to remember, I went into my day relaxed and had no worries. Every question was answered with expertise and the communication was stellar. The outside space was gorgeous and with my 105 guests it fit them without any problems. The overall price was reasonable compared to other venue prices i researched around STL and I bought the decor package so a lot of great stuff was included. We also got to stay the night there in the honeymoon suite which was really nice after a long day of festivities. Highly reccommend the Larimore! Ask for Hailey! She rocks!

I was invited to give a presentation for a luncheon. Bellecourt place is an old Baptist church,…read morethat the new owners have renovated into a banquet center. The downstairs is divided into two meeting rooms and the upstairs is open to one big room that can be used for a small private weddings etc... The people that own this place also own the Pie Pantry. So that means they have wonderful desserts, which is great because the main course was not so good. That is why they got 4 stars and not 3 stars. We were served homemade cream of mushroom soup, some kind of pasta dish and chicken parmesan. The cheese on top of the chicken looked rubbery, and according to the lady sitting next to me it tasted rubbery as well. The pasta was crusty and not very tasty. Thank heavens for the chocolate meringue pie.

I wanted to eat everything unfortunately I had to practice moderation.

I attended a corporate event at the caramel room last night. The location was a little bit…read moredifficult to find, but once we got there and were parked in the private gated parking lot with two security guards, we were directed to the fourth floor event space. I agree with the other reviewers, the event space is really beautiful, modern, and well laid out. When you walk in off the elevator, you cross the dance floor and then the very long bar with plenty of high top cocktail tables, circular settees, and cute swings. Since this is an event space, there were no barstools at the actual bar, which is fine. The restrooms are also located at the end of the bar and the Women's restroom was modern and clean. We had four bartenders and they were all very sweet. The pours were not measured out in shot glasses, but they were nice pours. The cocktails were basic, such as margarita, whiskey sour, wines, etc. Our bartender did not know how to make a lemon drop martini. Entering the ballroom/dining area, you are struck by the sparkly, curtain chandeliers. They really are striking. I couldn't stop looking at them LOL!Our dinner was set up with large round tables of 10 seats each. The bread basket contained pretzel rolls and regular bread rolls and they were good, but nothing special. I loved the presentation of the butter which was a really pretty swirl. I ordered the scallops that came with sautéed spinach and I couldn't put my finger on what was mixed with the sautéed spinach but it was really good. The scallops were sitting in a light orange colored sauce and I don't know what that was either but it was delicious and the scallops were a bit small, but cooked very well. Others enjoyed their steaks with sautéed spinach & potato wedges. The chicken Parmesan was served with roasted broccoli and the huge chicken breast was so large, no one finished it. The broccoli was plain and dry and not very well received. Oh, I forgot to mention the salad which had apple chunks & crispy sweet potato haystacks on top - it was really delicious. For dessert our options were hibiscus mousse with a hibiscus macaron or a chocolate shell which was filled with whipped cream and strawberries. Both were super yummy! The wait staff had to encourage us all to leave the dining room after dinner to go back out to the bar area and the upstairs area so they could clear the tables. The upstairs area is just a long hallway with high top tables overlooking the floor below, and access to the rooftop with lounge seating, high tops & fire pits. There was a beautiful view of a suspension bridge, but I don't know the name of it. I spent the most of the evening on the rooftop since it was so nice outside and the DJ was super loud inside. I would recommend this venue. It's suited for very large parties and weddings, it's just really far from St. Peters. I would like to give kudos to the wait staff and bartenders, the service was excellent and everyone had big smiles on their faces. It was a fun night! I normally take tons of pictures but since this was a corporate event, I was too uncomfortable to do so. it was a struggle. I really really wanted to take photos of the food. LOL! Sorry!

The Crystal Room (larger space) is well lit, and very lovely. The Cherub Room (smaller space) has no windows, white walls, tiled floors, a Greek Revival sort of aesthetic that, even with imported floral displays, is just a little too stark for me. This weekend, I was there for a fundraiser in the smaller room while a reception was taking place in the larger. The food was good, but the buffet service was about 15 minutes behind schedule getting started (it must be difficult to serve two large rooms at approximately the same time).
