This place is a beautiful and gorgeous venue for a wedding and reception. My wife and I just got…read moremarried there a little over a week ago and we were nothing but pleased with how everything looked. 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!

Our son recently held his eclectic wedding at this venue which is a beautiful mix of a historical,…read moreGerman brick barn updated to today's standards of comfort and technology. 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.

We went to the Longview Mansion tonight (12/12/24) for Sip and Shop. It was a wonderful experience…read morewhere they open up this historic home. Visitation and fellowship during the holiday season. There were many people from all over town and our little area here in New Longview. My wife and I live is Kessler Ridge, so we drove less than five minutes to get to the mansion. We have been on the grounds many times before, but this was the first time we were able to visit the interior of the house. It is impressive and fun. There were lots of little pop-up shops set up inside the mansion, all on the main floor and then in a tent that extended from a sunporch on the back of the house. That was by far the biggest area to shop. The rest of the little pop-up areas were small and cozy inside the house. The staff was lovely and serving drinks, wine and food. We only had one glass of wine so we could drive home safely. We loved walking around the house, which everyone who attended was allowed to do with no drama and no supervision. Everyone I saw was super respectful of the property. Everyone we encountered was kind. It was a lovely evening. I hope they do it again next year so we can go.

I could not imagine a worse experience planning a wedding. My sister and her now husband had their…read morewedding here, and the stress that they experienced as a result of this venue is beyond anything I ever would've expected. If you'd like to hear about all the lies and deceit throughout the process, please reach out, but I'll just drop the most infuriating deception here. Attached is the bar package information we were given when considering booking the venue. My sister and her husband booked the Platinum package, which already limits you to a total of 3 types of hard liquors but is the most expensive package. About 6 weeks before the wedding, they scheduled a meeting with the owner of the venue and her husband to solidify their beer and liquor choices. During this meeting, the owner tried to charge us the full alcohol price for MINORS who can't consume alcohol. Luckily, we had printed the bar package sheet, and we showed her exactly where it states that the cost is $5 for minors. After this meeting, the owner's husband, who owns the bar company, sent over a bar contract that stated "While customer is purchasing an 'Open Bar' package for their guests, the Catering Agreement and Selected 'package' is not an Unlimited or All You Can Drink offering." Imagine our shock when we discovered that we now, 6 weeks before the wedding, must worry about running out of alcohol during the wedding. The calculator that the owner's husband provided was based on average drinkers, and it's mostly intended for people stocking their own alcohol for events. We've planned and had plenty of friends plan weddings, and at absolutely none of the weddings has anyone ever had to worry about running out of any drinks. Also, they did run out of cabernet. PLUS, for the tons of money that you spend on the most expensive "open bar" option with limited alcohol choices and limited alcohol volume, the wine they serve is Barefoot wine. That's right. The same Barefoot wine that you can go buy for about $10 for a 1.5L bottle. They also state that sour is available as a mixer, but it probably shouldn't surprise anyone that they didn't have sour mix, even though it was printed on the signs they made for the bar. If you think we only had an alcohol issue during the event, you'd be mistaken. You can't bring your own alcohol onto the premise, which is true of KS venues. So after we asked ahead of time, the owner's husband agreed to provide ONE bottle of champagne for the ladies while getting ready. It was so fun for us each to have half a glass of champagne while getting ready for six hours. For the guys, the owner's husband said, "If I am available during the afternoon hours, I will serve the gentlemen beer out of the overall event allotment." So for the guys to have any drinks while getting ready, we would've had to be even more worried about running out of alcohol during the wedding. Because of this, the guys had to spend their day elsewhere, then just show up at the venue to get dressed right before photos. The lies, deceit, and headache we experienced with the bar was only one example and was emblematic of our entire experience. I wouldn't recommend this venue to my worst enemy. I will say that Jessica, who was present the day of the event, was a delight. We didn't meet her until the meeting six weeks before the wedding, but she was fantastic. I'd recommend Jessica, but I wouldn't recommend this venue ever. If you do book this venue, make sure you get absolutely every single thing that is said or promised in writing immediately, then make sure you always have that documentation on hand.

We were told we'd have a final meeting closer to the date to discuss layouts & finer details. That was never scheduled. We had to drive down to the venue to get answers. On the day of, they were not prepared for our event. The tables and chairs were not set up, our decorator couldnt even start setting up when she got there. They did not take responsibility for this at all and were very rude when we asked why the room was not set up at the time they said it would be. The space was also not cleaned properly. I had to ask for floors to be mopped. The bridal suite had food on the floors and carpets. There were also a pair of dirty socks in one of the rooms. The bathroom did not have a doorknob, and they also did not stock and toilet paper in the bathroom. There were also many issues with communicating with staff. We asked that the a/c be turned up so it would he cool enough for our guests, and the owner made a rude comment about his electric bill. During our event, it got so hot, our guests were using napkins to fan themselves. There were many issues with the sound system and microphones. Guests couldnt hear the speeches. No help was offered from staff. To top it all off, they started setting up for another event during our reserved time. The worst part of it all is that they never to accountability. The only made excuses and further put the blame on us.
