The Dome
Wedding venue in Saint Joseph, Missouri
About The Dome
The Dome is a historic event venue in Saint Joseph, Missouri, in a Beaux Arts building originally constructed as a church in 1899. The sanctuary can seat up to 900 guests, with a 43-foot ceiling, a central dome, stained glass, ornate mahogany woodwork, and a stage for a bridal party. Couples can rent the sanctuary alone or combine it with the ballroom for a wedding in one building. The 3,200-square-foot ballroom seats around 200, depending on table layout, and can accommodate a DJ; the venue can provide tables and chairs for about 180. Additional event facilities include a conference-style room, two staging rooms with half bathrooms, upper and lower foyers, and a lounge. A rehearsal is included with the rental; a rehearsal dinner in the ballroom incurs an additional fee. The venue allows outside caterers, while beer and wine may be arranged case by case; hard liquor is not allowed. Parking includes about 12 spaces beside the building and street parking, with an additional lot potentially available by arrangement. The historic building is not fully handicap accessible, though a side entrance with fewer stairs leads to the ballroom.
