TESTIMONIALS

“We chose The Royal Sonesta Chase Park Plaza for a variety of reasons. The weather in STL can be rather unpredictable in the spring, so we were looking for a venue that was unique and had the ability to feel "outside," at an inside event. The views of Forest Park from Zodiac and Starlight give you the magical vibes that take you to Central Park in NYC. If you're looking for an all inclusive event (room block, parking, ceremony, reception, brunch), just book Haseeb from The Chase. From the moment we met he saw our vision and was always available for texts, phone calls, emails and meetings. We were planning during quite a bit of uncertainty with COVID and if there is one thing I was always certain of, it was that Haseeb knew the plan and he certainly knew how to execute. We truly had the best day ever & can't thank Haseeb enough for his dedication, love, and attention to detail for our entire slew of events!”

Allie S. | Zodiac & Starlight Wedding

 

“We had our ceremony and reception at the Chase in the Zodiac and Starlight rooms. We worked with Joy for most of the planning process, but Haseeb actually took over the week before the wedding and was absolutely incredible. He even saved the day when my bustle broke! Absolutely everything during the wedding was seamless and every detail was accounted for. We did the reception stations (which we highly recommend) and our guests are still raving about the amazing food. The taco bar had a line all night! Cannot recommend The Chase enough for weddings!”

Audrey H. | Zodiac & Starlight Wedding

 

“We didn't have our reception at The Chase, but we used it for our hotel guests as well as a post-wedding brunch. We worked with Haseeb and he was helpful in taking care of logistics, even as we had last minute changes. The brunch in the Zodiac Room was great- the room is beautiful and has a great view and the food was delicious as well. The Chase is such a great hotel for guests to stay at and was super convenient since our reception was in Forest Park. The rooms are spacious and clean and the other amenities (pool, movie theatre, bar, etc.) only enhance your stay!”

Caitlin M. | Room Block & Wedding Brunch

 

“The Chase was the perfect Venue for my wedding last month. It was originally planned for May 2020 but Haseeb was able to pick up right where we left off and help us put together the wedding of our dreams. The execution was seamless and truly a magical evening ceremony and reception. We couldn't have asked for more professional and accommodating service, not to mention the enthusiasm and excitement for our nuptials! Highly recommend this beautiful and timeless St. Louis establishment for your wedding celebrations!”
