Slate

Slate is a contemporary event venue in downtown St. Louis, suited to organisers planning wedding ceremonies and receptions, rehearsal dinners, corporate functions, holiday parties, lectures and other celebrations. Its open layout and tall windows give the room a light, adaptable feel, making it possible to shape the space around the occasion, whether the plan calls for a formal seated event or a relaxed gathering.

The venue accommodates up to 150 guests for seated events and up to 170 for cocktail-style receptions. Built-in audiovisual facilities, including dual projectors, make it practical for presentations and talks as well as social occasions. Organisers also have access to an on-site venue manager and professional service staff, with set-up and breakdown included in the listed rental arrangements. Tables, chairs, tableware and glassware are provided, helping simplify the planning and equipment checklist.

Food and drink are provided through the venue's exclusive in-house catering partner, The Fifth Wheel Catering. Menus can include seasonal choices and options suited to vegan and gluten-free guests. The team can also arrange action stations, speciality cocktails, craft beer and draft wine, with custom cakes and desserts available through Baileys' in-house bakery. This combination of flexible event space, catering and service support makes Slate a useful option for planners seeking a single downtown location for both the gathering and its hospitality.

The venue is at 1015 Locust Street, with private parking garage access and additional parking options. Its central location and accessible facilities add practical considerations for guest arrival and movement. Event organisers can enquire with the venue team about availability, room hire and a tailored proposal for their plans.
