"This is a wedding venue to remember. Jim and Jeannie have created such a one-of-a-kind, whimsical place at The Lalumondiere that my guests fell in love with it, as we did. From the unique treasures Jim has found to decorate the property with, to the beautiful motif Jeannie has used to decorate it, you really feel like you're somewhere else besides Missouri. The river as the back drop lends tranquility to the wedding ceremony & reception and is a beautiful back drop for pictures. Our wedding on 4/30/11 was amazing and we know The Lalumondiere played a huge part in that." Photo courtesy of Allie B Photo

"We were so thrilled that we chose the Lalumondiere for our reception. We wanted a special occasion that was unique and memorable. I could not have asked for a more beautiful setting, top-notch owners who more than accommodated our needs, and the most peaceful memories to last a lifetime. Our reception location was the most talked-about part of our whole day (at least for those who attended)! Their website even suggests other vendors to help on your special event. I used the business they suggested for renting tables & they were helpful, friendly, & timely too. I would highly recommend the Lalumondiere Mill & Rivergardens for any special occasion - you have to see it to believe it!"

"Jeannie and Jim and their lovely Lalumondiere were positively, incredibly wonderful!
They have created a beautiful and enchanting venue, and it was PERFECT for our homespun, DIY, Autumn wedding. Jeannie and Jim are extremely helpful and flexible, and having been with the Lalumondiere from it's start, they know just how to make her sing. Furthermore, the venue has so many great features, it's impossible not to fall in love with it.
Our guests can't stop talking about how amazing our wedding was--they were all in awe of the location, and kept asking how on earth we found this hidden treasure, with such beautiful landscaping, rustic but comfortable styling, and natural features, like the lovely river itself!
The Lalumondiere certainly holds a very special place in our hearts.
Thanks Jeannie and Jim! We love you guys and can't thank you enough!!"

You have such a beautiful, amazing home and garden, thank you so much for opening your home up to us and our friends & family for our special day, it was just incredible.

It was the perfect backdrop to our day, exactly how we envisioned it. Thank you for everything, you two are such genuine, exceptional people. I can't wait to send you some pictures!!
Eva & Dan
Jeanne & Jim, it's a little belated but life is just now slowing down a bit. I wanted to say thank you on behalf of Dan and myself for allowing us the pleasure to start our married life together at your home. It was an absolutely wonderful, amazing experience. God helped out with the beautiful weather, but I think even if it would have rained all day it still would have been magical. Your home & surroundings can not be described in words; everyone who attended the wedding is STILL very complimentary to you and your home! I will send pictures when we get them back. Hope the New Year is treating you well!!

"Emma and Owais had their ceremony at the stunning Lalumondiere Mill and Rivergardens in House Springs. I had never been and was completely astounded when I got to the property. It is LITERALLY an old mill, right on the river, and the gardens are amazing! Everything is landscaped and lush, rustic stone and wood – it is beautiful and being a junky for (my catchword of this blog) all things rustic, I was in heaven." Samantha of Arms Up Photography
I worked at an awesome venue last night--the Lalumondiere Mill & Rivergardens. It was definately one of the most unique and scenic places that I have been to in my 20 years DJing. Dan and Eva picked a great spot and got some perfect weather to just hang out and enjoy the views. The owners of the property are two of the nicest people you will ever work with. I can't wait to go back! Jeremy of First Class Weddings DJ

"We played a wedding at the Lalumondiere Mill & Rivergardens last night. I couldn't be more surprised to find such a gem tucked away in the trees and hills, barely more then five miles away from where I grew up. I'll definitely be recommending this spot to anybody I know looking for an event space. And Trigger 5 is looking forward to playing there again!" Alex Carlson/member of Trigger 5 band
