See St. Joseph: community, celebrations & comedy
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (News-Press NOW) -- The longer weekend promises to be an entertaining one full of celebrations, laughs and community happenings. News-Press NOW's Kendra Simpson found the weekend's top entertainment in this week's edition of See St. Joseph.
What’s spring in St. Joseph without the community markets? Well, the wait is over because this Saturday is the return of Market Days.
Supporting local businesses has never been easier with a wide selection of flowers, baked goods, pottery, jewelry and more. These markets are an excellent opportunity to find the perfect gifts for yourself or a loved one, get to know local businesses and engage with the St. Joseph community. The first community market of the season goes from 9 a.m. to noon Saturday at the Center for Joy, located at 1202 Felix St.
St. Joseph is officially entering the wedding season with the warm weather, but St. Joe's Comedy Wedding is no typical ceremony.
St. Joseph residents have been cordially invited to the most outrageous wedding of the year. Lora and Billy are tying the knot, despite a long-standing, bitter and hilarious feud between the groom and the bride’s family. What could go wrong? Get ready for an evening of dancing, laughing, auctions and an incredible meal. This isn’t just a wedding, it’s an experience! Guests should arrive between 7 and 7:15 p.m. with the nuptials beginning at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at 515 S 6th St. Regular and VIP table tickets can be purchased by calling the box office at 816-279-1225.
What better way to celebrate the Memorial Day weekend than with a party hosted by one of St. Joseph's most popular pubs?
D&G Pub is hosting its first-ever Memorial Day celebration. There’s going to be a free fireworks display, an ice-cold beer station, grilled brats, a campfire pit and roasted marshmallows. Come for the celebrations and stay for the bonding and camaraderie. The celebration goes from 7:30 p.m. to 1:15 a.m. at D&G, located at 1918 Frederick Ave.
