The Ultimate List of Wedding Venues in Kansas City
The Ultimate List of Wedding Venues in Kansas City | Wedding Photographer Kansas City
{AUGUST 2023 UPDATE} Wedding Venues in Kansas City range from chic, intimate rooftop venues perfect for tiny weddings and intimate affairs, to elegant, opulent spaces crafted for larger nuptials, to classy, rustic barn venues, and everything in between. As a lifelong marriage lover and wedding enthusiast, I’m thrilled our “Crown Town” (Shout out to our Royals and Chiefs!) has it all. And if one thing is true about my craft, it is that I get a front row seat in just about every event venue you can imagine as a wedding photographer. Kansas City is host to a plethora of wedding venue locations, but when you are newly engaged and just getting started with planning your wedding, it’s hard to know where to begin. (If that’s you, be sure to check out my post on What to Do First When Planning Your Wedding and bookmark it, then come back and keep reading.)
While there are a few lists floating around with some of the venues, I was hard pressed to find an exhaustive list with all the wedding venues in Kansas City which was not rife with advertisements or containing too much or too little information. In fact, the bottom line is that one simply did not exist!
So, I decided to put my expertise to work for us all and to make the list that we all needed: The Ultimate List of Kansas City Wedding Venues. To make this a little easier to skim, I’ve divided the wedding venues in the greater Kansas City area into five distinct regions: North, East, South, West and Downtown. (***Insider Tip: If you’re looking for a wedding venue in a specific area of Kansas City, skip on down to your desired region!) Under each region, you’ll find the best list of wedding venues in and around Kansas City, as well as the maximum capacity each venue holds, the address, website and phone number, accessibility, whether or not the facility allows you to choose your own vendors, and any other pertinent details that stand out to me.
