About

A classic wedding venue in Saint Joseph, Missouri, The Dome is a historical piece of architecture, originally built to be a church in 1899. The church's integrity is still intact with various renovations having been completed to make the space a luxurious and elegant wedding venue. Spacious halls and tall ceilings add to the breathtaking beauty of the interior and the exterior marble walls create quite an impressive atmosphere.

Facilities and Capacity
With six separate event spaces for couples to choose from, The Dome has become a premier wedding destination. The Sanctuary is the largest of the spaces, fit with a stage, seating for 900 guests and stained glass windows. In addition to the Sanctuary are the ballroom and several other indoor spaces. The grandeur of a much older time is felt throughout The Dome and no matter your choice of space, your guests will love being a part of your special day. The Dome can accommodate anywhere from 20 to 900 guests, allowing for small, intimate gatherings as well as much larger celebrations.

This place is extremely beautiful. The acousitics are amazong as well! I got married here back in June and had a very good experience. The owners are very passionate of this building and love to share it with others. The owners were very flexible and worked hard to make my wedding everything I wanted. I highly recommend this venue.

As Chairperson of the St Joseph Landmark Commission Preservation Awards committee, I am pleased to announce that we have planned our event to be held at "The Dome" in historic St Joseph MO on April 24th 2016. Marcina and Jason have been wonderful to work with and our committee is especially thrilled to be able to hold the Preservation Awards Ceremony in this beautifully newly restored Church. Thank you for all of the love and care you have taken in restoring this historic property. We look forward to our event..

Ruined my wedding day

Very unprofessional staff. Women who ran the place named marcena carter let her dog run around throughout my ceremony and reception. She approached me in the middle of my reception and yelled at me because one of their tables completely broke while some boys were getting the floor ready for our first dance. She told me we would have to shut it down early. She would bump into guests without apologizing while she was angrily cleaning up people’s food before they were done eating. She had no regards to my feelings or others. Then had the audacity to eat my cake. This place ruined my only special day. Wouldn’t recommend to my worst enemy.
