I highly recommend the Plaza Wedding Chapel for those seeking a stress-free ceremony on the Country Club Plaza at most affordable prices.

They also have a décor closet with leftover centerpieces, sequin runners, etc. that you can use, which saved us a lot of money! The food is AMAZING. We went with a 3 protein buffet (rotisserie chicken, roast beef carving station, salmon) with salad, rolls, and 2 sides. It was AMAZING-- easily the best wedding food I've ever had. Another bonus with TTOG is that they offer two day-of coordinators, which I couldn't have appreciated more. A few weeks before the wedding, we met with Emad to set a timeline for the night so that everything moved along smoothly as the night progressed. I dropped all my decor off (and a list of the ones I wanted to use from their supply) the week of the wedding, and they do all of the set up and tear down for us! Everything looked perfect the night of. We don't have a single complaint about the venue, Emad or Maggie, or the bar/serving staff. If anything went wrong, Emad or Maggie took care of it and we didn't notice a thing! For the price, they offered a lot more than any other venues downtown that we looked at, and came in at our projected budget. I cannot say enough nice things about TTOG and would 100% recommend them to another couple.

This place is a beautiful and gorgeous venue for a wedding and reception.

Due to the natural beauty of the barns interior, we didn't have to do a lot of decorating. We couldn't have been happier choosing this location for a new chapter in our lives. They also allow your own vendors for your event which is now to have that flexibility. There are few requirements that differ from other venues as this place is a registered historical site, but they are nothing major or very costly that makes or breaks your event. As a heads up, this place is rented out hourly so it's challenging to decorate for a wedding the same day of the event, but it can be done! We highly recommend this place!

The facility offers meeting and wedding space for up to 200ppl and can be booked through the City of Lenexa which keeps the cost affordable.We booked the wedding on a Friday evening which saved even more costs. Saturday weddings book a year out so you'll need to contact them early or camp out to book a spot with the City. Many images can be googled online to show you the facility's offerings. We didn't need to do much for decor as the facility is so clean and classy with brick walls, exposed beam ceiling in the main hall, a full kitchen, meeting rooms for the wedding party to get ready etc. An outdoor courtyard can be used for the ceremony also although it's along I-35 for traffic noise. We did experience problems with the set up, AV equipment and evening staffing but these issues were addressed satisfactorily when we brought them up to management. We'd definitely recommend this air conditioned barn to any bride and groom.

First of all, when the client contacted me and asked me to help with her daughter's wedding, I…read morereadily agreed. The Loose Mansion managers, Abbey and Loren, seemed to have an attitude issue. I wanted the wedding event to be just as memorable for the client as they... but they seemed to want to make things unnecessarily difficult. When I arrived at the scheduled time, neither Abbey nor Loren were there. No one else knew anything about any of the A/V equipment that Loose Mansion provides. Awhile later, Loren arrived. I introduced myself and was as pleasant as I could possibly be. Again, I received a "not so warm" reception. There was just a prevailing attitude of arrogance, entitlement and an unfriendliness. Because Loose Mansion was providing the video projector for the event, I asked Loren if we could plug my computer into the projector prior to the arrival of guests to make sure everything operated correctly. She told me that she probably wouldn't have time to allow me to test the hook-up because she was "so busy". I thought to myself "had you arrived at the time we had agreed upon, perhaps you would have had time to check important components like making sure the A/V would work." I was told that I would need to bring my own sound system and mics because they don't allow any "outsiders" to touch their equipment. So I came prepared with speakers, speaker stands, mixer, mics, and audio playback. As I was setting up the computer, I couldn't get the "Loose Mansion" WiFi network to work. I said something to Loren and she told me that I would have to connect to the "office network". The WiFi network was so ridiculously slow that no webpage would even load up. I thought that something must be wrong... so I connected to the network with my phone to check the speed there. Again, practically non-existent speed... so bad that nothing would work (see the screen caps from both my computer and my phone). I was afraid to say anything to Loren or ask her to reset her router for fear that I'd get another harsh response. So I just set up my own hotspot and used that. I finally did mention it to Loren and she said "Yes, it's very slow... we just tell people to download everything they need in advance." It seems ridiculous that a professional "event space" facility would have WiFi that is virtually of no use whatsoever. As the set-up for this very nice wedding event proceeded, I noticed that Loren was wearing a black skirt for the event, but with old green sneakers. I thought that she was just wearing these old green sneakers because they were comfortable during the set-up process, but surely she'd change into something more presentable for the wedding once guests started to arrive. Wrong! Later during the event, I overheard one guest mention her appearance to another guest... they were also surprised that management would allow an onsite manager to dress like this for a client's wedding event. They forgot to turn on the speakers for the ceremony, so if you were sitting in the room used for the ceremony, it sounded like all of the sound/music was coming from the room behind you (there were speakers in other rooms of the house). After the ceremony, as guests went for cocktails, we started to set up our gear for the after-dinner event. The "unused" Loose Mansion speakers were still sitting on the small stage... and when I asked Loren if we could move them aside so we could have room for our speakers, she said "No, we'll leave them right where they are!" Unbelievable! Another thing noticed was the fact that in order to lower the projection screen from the ceiling mount, Loren had to get a tall staffer who stood on top of a bucket or something and then used a plastic coat hanger to try to reach the bottom of the screen and pull it down. Tacky! My review is directed to other vendors/event planners. I've never had to deal with event space management who was NOT a team-player with the goal of wanting to create a stellar event by working TOGETHER with vendors. Instead, there was noticeable resistance. It's really too bad!

Our daughter and son-in-law recently had their wedding reception at Loose Mansion and we were…read moreextremely please with the event. We cannot recommend Loose Mansion highly enough. My wife and I were impressed and pleased with the professionalism of the staff and the preparation of the event space. The event manager, Loren, appeared to be everywhere and invisible at the same time, and the staff worked seamlessly with the outside vendors. Every guest that spoke to me about the venue mentioned how beautiful it is and how well everything ran. My wife and I also stayed in the Carriage House and that simplified and enhanced our experience. We love to take a morning walk, and the neighborhood was fun to explore too. One last item that I don't want to overlook is their process of event preparation. It seemed that every need, every eventuality, was anticipated and prepared for. On the front end, it seemed a little daunting, answering all those questions and choosing among so many options, but the payoff came at the reception. Everything ran smoothly and we were able to relax and enjoy our guests. The Loose Mansion team could not have been more thorough.

There was plenty of space for hundreds of us, and yet it never felt crowded. They pulled off the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, and the after-party seamlessly. The rooftop and well-placed bars made everything flow effortlessly. At no point did we feel rushed, overwhelmed, or stuck waiting around--which is rare at big events. It was an incredibly fun night. If I ever had a large event to plan, The Abbott would be high on my list.

If you are looking for a space to host something, here is why you should consider Cellar 222: Affordability: 10/10 When I got home, I had to look at ways to book and I was blown away by how affordable the prices were! Compared to other venues nearby, it's nearly a steal. It's no wonder they have been around as long as they have! You can bring your own food and use your own vendors. Chairs and furniture are free! Need I say more?! Location: 9.5/10 Located in the Crossroads District, the urban feel gave the space the perfect atmosphere. There are a couple spots for photo ops, especially the staircase leading to the entry. Parking was ample but it is difficult to get to with traffic during peak hours. Bonus points for it being across the street from Manny's! Time to Chill: 10/10 I am big on energy and vibes and I must say the energy this place has says a lot about the owner. The website says the owner is low stress and we could tell! I immediately felt comfortable and welcomed. The happy couple opted for uplighting but it was not needed. The airy setup made for glorious natural lighting and with candles, it was perfectly romantic. There was a lot of people but it never felt overcrowded with the setup. Intimacy: 10/10 Downstairs in the cellar is where the ceremony and dinner reception took place and it was fantastic. For the ceremony portion, it was very intimate with the chair setup. We were encircled around the couple and the wedding party, which made it even more special to witness their vows. There was not a dry eye in the building. Overall: 10/10 This venue is a hidden treasure. It's a combination of Tuscany and big city with loads of romance. From the open, airy setup to the beautiful structure, there really is no need for decoration. I'm sad I did not get more pics but I'm happy I lived in the moment. I look forward to booking this space in the future.

The facility gives off a great first impression, so we rented for bridal shower. After arriving to set up on the day of our event, we found a very filthy facility. There was an event the night prior, and cleaning had not been done between events as we were led to believe. The manager was actually mopping the floors as we arrived, and the whole building had a damp musty odor that lingered all day. The carpet was covered in stains. There was dried food on the walls, the chairs were covered in stains and soil and were obviously not wiped down from event to event. One chair looked like soda had been spilled and left on it to dry. The handicapped bathroom door would not close and shut, and had to be slammed or kept close with your foot. There were no signs to direct or make awareness of another public restroom around the corner, hidden from view, and was overlooked by some of our attendees. The kitchen appliances had not been cleaned in months, if ever. The refrigerator was covered in dried crusty food stains, beverage stains and human hair. It took 8 people 2 hours to clean and stage the facility for our event, seriously no elaboration here. We started at 9 am for an 11:00 bridal shower. Upon complaining to the venue people after the event, we were accused of stealing entranceway door mat, which was found later by staff, who apparently had misplaced it when mopping the floor. The venue has potential to be a very awesome rental space, but is currently under poor management who think sweeping and mopping floors between events is sufficient. This place needs a routinely scheduled hard deep cleaning. There are nicer, cleaner event spaces out there, so my opinion is to take a pass on this one.
