Our Story
STL Bucket List is an independently owned media brand based in the heart of Downtown St. Louis. What began as a passion project by founders Lucas and Marissa Farrell to document their foodie adventures and favorite local gems has grown into one of the most influential digital voices in the city.

To support our growing network of brands, we also operate Bucket List Creative, a full-service digital marketing agency founded in 2019. With a focus on local business growth, our agency partners with entrepreneurs, creatives, and organizations to elevate their online presence through social media management, content creation, web design, and more.

As we continue to grow, so does our commitment—to amplifying local voices, supporting small businesses, and playing an active role in shaping a vibrant, connected future for St. Louis.
