Why Eden Coffee Co is the Perfect Fit for Summer Weddings, Corporate Events & Grand Openings

There’s something magical about an outdoor event in St. Louis—especially in the summer. The sun’s out, the florals are blooming, and the city’s vibrant energy is in full swing. But let’s be honest: St. Louis summers are hot, and when you’re hosting a wedding, baby shower, or client mixer under the Missouri sky, keeping your guests cool isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity.

That’s where Eden Coffee Co comes in. We specialize in mobile cold brew and iced espresso bars designed to not only refresh your guests but also elevate the entire event experience.

☀️ Why Cold Coffee is a Summer Event Essential in STL

Whether it’s a garden ceremony in Tower Grove Park, a rooftop cocktail hour at The Last Hotel, or a company celebration in Clayton, cold coffee is no longer just an afterthought—it’s a feature.

Here’s why iced coffee bars are trending in 2025:

Weather-friendly: When temperatures hit 90°F+ (as they often do in July), hot coffee gets passed over. A cold brew station keeps everyone happy and hydrated.
Customizable & on-brand: We tailor drink menus, signage, and syrup flavors to your event’s color palette and vibe.
Photo-ready setups: Our mobile cart is a guest favorite—and yes, the iced drinks are as Instagram-worthy as the florals.

💧 What’s on the Menu? A Cool Selection of Crowd-Pleasers

We work with each host to create a seasonal, refreshing menu that pairs well with sunshine and celebration. Some of our most popular iced options this summer include:

Classic Cold Brew with optional vanilla cream, sweet foam, or almond milk
Iced Espresso Lattes in flavors like brown sugar cinnamon, honey lavender, and toasted caramel
Iced Dirty Chai (spiced chai + espresso + oat milk = yes, please)
Seasonal Syrups: Strawberry basil, peach rosemary, vanilla cardamom

📍 Where We’ve Served: Real STL Venues, Real Expertise
