The Details:
First, the Basic stuff.
The Pavilion Event Space features elegant indoor ballrooms with versatile floor plans, and a one-of-a-kind outdoor ceremony space for couples to host their big day. The inside consists of 10,000 sq ft of thoughtfully curated spaces, 13 Swarovski Crystal Chandeliers, Stylish Getting ready areas, and a ton of rental and design options. Outside, The Open Air Chapel is arguably one of the most unique outdoor ceremony spaces in the midwest! It seats up to 300 (just like inside), has full amphitheater surround sound, and is sure to wow your guests. We intentionally designed all the spaces with a neutral color palette so that your colors and style will always look flawless, no matter what aesthetic and vision you choose. We are located in Kansas City, MO near I-70 and I-435, on four acres, making us easily accessible to guests coming from every direction. Our breathtaking event spaces and dedicated in-house design and coordination team make for an unforgettable experience for our couples.
Now that we got that part over with, let's get to the HEART of the matter:
The Venue is gorgeous. It really does sell itself. HOWEVER, it is truly the people that work here that make this place special. We hope to make you laugh as much as we do, because this is supposed to be FUN! We take your wedding day VERY seriously, but we certainly don’t take ourselves TOO seriously. Our goal is to turn what can be an incredibly stressful planning process into something that you can actually enjoy. Sometimes you need a wedding professional, but sometimes you need a friend (or a wedding therapist). That is where The Pavilion Event Space stands out from everyone else. We are a small close knit family who really take pride in what we do. We LOVE weddings, helping people, and love in general. ALL are welcome here. We are not just dedicated to your wedding, we are dedicated to you and how you feel throughout the whole process. Our whole team will do everything in our power to make this day as special as you’ve always dreamed. When you book with us, you are not just booking our venue, you are booking the people too. If you don’t believe us go read some of our reviews and see what the couples that have come before you have to say. We sincerely hope to meet you and get to know you!-Let's get started
If you are trying to find a place for your wedding, I could not recommend The Pavilion Event Space more. They were so kind and respectful. All my vendors raved about how organized they were. I didn't worry about a thing because I knew how organized they were. They made our day perfect, and that's just the service. The space was gorgeous and they even designed the room with me so I knew it would look perfect. If you are on the fence about where to get married, you should definitely choose The Pavilion Event Space ! Reviewed on 04-12-2023

The Pavilion went above and beyond for us on our wedding day and leading up. They were 2nd venue we looked at and ended up looking at 4 total. Nothing compared to what they had to offer! Destiny, Evan, and Stacy I think was her name were there for us every step. I do not know of any other venue that would do what they did. They made sure we were okay and answered any questions up until the last second. They were easy to work with, always answered quickly and recommended the BEST vendors. We got our DJ, Florist and Catering through their recommendations as well and nothing went wrong. They provide a day of coordinator and bartender with the venue as well. I wish I could do it all over again just to have them! They made the day fun, effortless, and memorable. Reviewed on 03-11-2023

My husband and I just got married at this venue. We had such a blast and everybody said it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to! The wedding coordinator Destiny is the reason everything was so amazing! She really took control and kept everything running smoothly. As a bride, I was shocked being so stress free and relaxed because Destiny was covering everything! She also gave me and my bridesmaids her personal phone number to instantly contact her at all, but we never needed to because she was always there when needed. Destiny single-handedly helped make our special day the best day ever. I hear so many wedding horror stories, but I knew I had nothing to worry about thanks to her amazing work! That’s saying a lot because I’m an OCD anxious control freak! You won’t regret requesting her! Reviewed on 25-07-2023

From the moment we walked in the building, we knew The Pavilion was where we were going to get married! If you're looking for an incredible venue ran by exceptional and down to earth people to help make your Wedding day exciting and memorable, The Pavilion is IT!!! Kacie, Evan, Destiny, Taylor, and the team are so attentive, organized, personable, and dedicated to making one of the best days of your life even better. They treat you like family, and do everything in their power to make your dream Wedding come true. Destiny was our Coordinator, we LOVED her approach and support to ensure we stayed on schedule and things went as smooth as possible. She went ABOVE AND BEYOND in EVERYTHING, and our family and friends LOVED her too!!!! Taylor and Kacie were always smiling and cheerful, and they work so hard alongside the team! Evan was a great Manager and Bar Tender, he made our guests laugh and have fun! The cost is affordable, and they even have a wide variety of linens, centerpieces, arbors, and so much more! We used the outdoor space for the ceremony because the landscaping was breathtaking and romantic. They even lit up the open air chapel at night with purple lights, which was fun for nighttime photos too! The indoor reception hall is gorgeous, with a Jr. Ballroom and Bridal suite for getting ready. We also appreciated that we were able to bring our own alcohol instead of committing to a Bar minimum. It was truly an honor to have our wedding at the Pavilion, we would do it 100 times again if we could! We even hope to go back for a Vow renewal in the years to come. We THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for being the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Reviewed on 19-07-2023

The Pavilion Event Space was the first and only venue I toured after I got engaged! Right when I walked through the door i knew it was the place I wanted to get married. Not only because of how beautiful the event space was, but because of how nice and welcoming the staff was. Through out the year and a half engagement they were always there to answer questions whether it was email or over the phone. I truly felt like they were there for me and my now husband the whole way. Fast forward to the couple weeks leading up to the wedding and the day off. Destiny and Taylor (day of coordinators) were absolutely amazing. They made sure my husband and I didn’t see each other even if that meant they stood in front of me lol. Destiny and Taylor always made sure I had someone with me 24/7 on the day of incase something happened. They also checked on my husband and I throughout the whole day/night to make sure we were okay and didn’t need anything. Evan (bartender) was absolutely amazing as well. He served my husband his special drink all night and everyone was ranting and raving about his energy the whole night. He even got on the dance floor and showed some of his own moves. Our wedding was perfect, everything went so smoothly, and I feel like that wouldn’t of happened without these three workers who would do anything for their bride and groom. 100% recommend the pavilion event space. Kacie (the owner) and her colleagues are absolutely amazing and the venue itself is gorgeous!! Reviewed on 20-06-2023

From the beginning, Evan gave us a great tour and helped us envision ourselves at the alter and dancing the night away in the reception area. He gave tips on great vendors and even helped with our bar on the day of the event. We had multiple attendees give positive feedback about their experience with him. Destiny was a gem to work with. You could tell not only that she was committed to ensuring our day was a success but that she was experienced enough to handle any obstacles that arise.

Ma'Isha Cody(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-04-2023 I can't say enough great things about The Pavilion Event Space. We decided to look at this venue based off the Pavilion outdoor ceremony area, which I was in love with right off the bat, and the indoor area for reception sealed the deal even more. The Pavilion has so much to offer that you really do get the bang for your buck. They set up & take down, provide the linens, tables, chairs, bridal suite, jr. suite, BYOB with them doing the bar service, along with being able to rent all of the decorating needs from them as well!!! You don't even need to out source if you don't want to deal with the hassle of 50 million vendors... which I didn't. The bonus that really sold me was the Day of Coordinator. I had DESTINY! She was/is a heaven sent. If you want someone who is there to really advocate for you as the bride on your special day, someone to take on the little stress worries, give you great energy, make you laugh, etc. she is 100% the girl for the job! My husband, bridal party, parents, we all LOVED her! She truly cares about you and making sure your day is enjoyed with no problems. I was able to work alongside her from designing everything for the reception, rehearsal, & wedding day. She's easy going, relaxing, just absolutely perfect!EVAN is also amazing! He helped so much with the numbers for alcohol that we needed to buy, gave great tips to help and his personality is perfect! I was so happy that he was able to be the bartender on our wedding night!

Alexandria Mitchell(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-04-2023 We had a flawless and smooth experience at the Pavilion. The venue is just as gorgeous as all of the pictures make it out to be. We took the advice of the coordinators there and selected all of our vendors from their approved list. They have great relationships with many vendors that know how the Pavilion is setup. Picking a photographer and videographer that knew the venue also generated some amazing shots that I'm sure others would have missed. The Pavilion offers a lot of support compared to other venues we looked at. A day-of-coordinator is included. They offer the ability to customize the space without having to buy all the drapery and linens, they just had a small fee. So we had a beautiful wedding and were not left with a bunch of decorations we did not need. The team there makes you feel very special and they want you to have a great event. They were there for us every step of the way and made planning easier than we were expecting. Our wedding was in April, so we planned for an outdoor wedding and were able to have a back-up plan in case it rained. Luckily for us, we had a beautiful spring day that went off without a hitch! I 100% recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful and trouble-free experience for the couple. Reviewed on 14-04-2023

The packages are reasonable, the items for rent look wonderful, and the staff are flexible in making the look you want happen. The venue has the best intentions for your day and ensures that caterers, DJs, Photographers, and other vendors are working to give you the best day possible.The day-of coordinator will meet with you as often as needed, make sure that your vision is possible and met, and make sure that, on the day, you are catered to and comfortable to the best of their ability.While we were planning and preparing for our day, our coordinator, Destiny, met with us to pick out linens, decor to rent from the facility, and go over our plan for the day to ensure she understood what we wanted the day to feel like, how we wanted it to flow, and what we wanted it to look like. Destiny met with us again to go over our plans after we had finalized more information later in our process, was available by phone very readily, and was a reassuring presence leading up to the day.During the rehearsal, Destiny made sure to explain what she would be doing to make our plans a reality, how she would keep people in order, and was flexible in including people we offered to help support her from our families and wedding party so that we could have someone else close to us involved in ensuring the day went well.The day of, Destiny was on top of everything. She had the floor laid out, placed all the linens with her team, frequently checked in with us to make sure we were feeling like the day was progressing smoothly, and ensured that we had the best time possible that day. Destiny helped ensure that the plan we had built was kept to and we stayed on schedule the entire day thanks to her awesome support.In addition to Destiny, Evan, the GM, helped us build our drink order for our caterer, ran the bar for us, and was also readily available by phone as needed. When we had a small concern from our meal caterer, Evan helped step in and reassure the caterer of their concerns and get everything back on track. When we had a more finalized count for our wedding, Evan advised reducing the bar tenders we had hired through them from 2 to 1, a move that definitely demonstrates what the Pavillion Event Space showed us time and time again: A willingness to lose a bit on the price to ensure we were spending our money and time in an efficient and appropriate manner even when it was against their own bottom dollar.That focus on us and our best interests is by far the strongest selling point we can point out. They are not out to flip weddings or take advantage of you. The Pavillion Event Space cherishes your experience and happiness. It's a great feeling to have that you are spending your money at a place that acts that way and that your guests will enjoy.The day-of Evan made sure that any holes we had not filled got covered to the best of their ability, such as when we realized that we did not have serving tongs for our cocktail snacks. He also made sure that when we came in first from the ceremony, we had drinks and a moment to celebrate ourselves before our guests rejoined inside.We greatly enjoyed our time at The Pavillion Event Space, and highly recommend checking them out to host your events, as they will definitely give you a great experience.

Not only were we nervous because it was our first tour but especially because being an LGBTQ couple, we hoped we would be treated just as normal as other couples. From the moment we stepped inside, all of those fears quickly faded. Evan gave us the tour and really sold us on everything. But it wasn’t just that he sold us on the venue, he sold us when he found out we were at our first tour and on his willingness to talk to us about what questions we had, what questions we SHOULD have, answered those for us. He provided us with a list of amazing vendors and the order of which we need to book them. We saw one more venue directly after the Pavilion and as soon as we left we emailed the Pavilion and wanted to book. Not only did Evan sell us on the venue but he is the bartender and he CRUSHED it. All of our guests were so impressed with him and told us this all night. He helped us create signature drinks and come up with a shopping list so we had enough alcohol for the evening. He had us drinks waiting when we came inside from the ceremony and kept the guests happy all evening! Not only was Evan amazing, but Kacie CRUSHED it as well. She’s so fun L, creative, and energetic and came up with amazing ideas during the design meeting.

The ceremony in the outdoor air chapel was beautiful and everything I dreamed of for a refined outdoor wedding. Our guests loved it and we got nothing but compliments! The indoor reception was absolutely gorgeous! They had the perfect backdrop to match our colors, the linens were set up probably long before we arrived, and the facility in general was clean and well-kept. The staff was friendly and we loved the bartenders who did everything in their power to make me, my groom, our immediate families, & the bridal party have as much fun as possible all night long! Evan even helped us decide what alcohol to order before the wedding, as we brought our own. We also highly recommend the ambiance package because it was cool to have our monogram projected onto the walls and fun colored lights throughout the night. Our guests loved the venue and we had fun in the outdoor chapel for a few nighttime photos with the lights. Highly highly recommended! Reviewed on 30-11-2021

Our wedding was on January 9 of this year and it was INCREDIBLE. Of course it was stressful planning a wedding during COVID - but from our first meeting, the Pavilion team was with us every step of the way. No question / request ever seemed like a burden (believe me - I had a LOT of questions). In addition to the amazing staff - their venue is truly so timelessly beautiful that I didn't need a ton of decorations to make it beautiful. We could not have had a better coordinator to help things run smoothly on our wedding day. We never had to worry about a thing - we were just able to enjoy ourselves! Guests raved about how beautiful and elegant the venue was and also how incredibly helpful/kind the staff was. Our wedding and reception was indoors but you are free to use their stunning open air chapel for photos. Even in the dead of winter we got a beautiful backdrop that was steps away from the venue.

Inside is equally as stunning, and they have several centerpiece items you can use that not only save you money, but elevate the beauty of the space even more. We had a very large wedding - about 275 guests - and a big dance floor was the most important thing to us when looking for a venue. We had a massive dance floor and there was still plenty of room for our 22 tables so guests didn't feel crammed. Something I found to be unique to the Pavilion is the design meeting and final layout meeting. They are organized and help you really see how everything will come together on your wedding day so you don't have to worry about a thing the day of. Kacie was there every step of the way to answer questions and provide suggestions. Evan rocked the bar and his shopping list made it so much easier to stock our own bar.

Chaz Bishop(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-05-2018 Friends, brides, lend me your ears. I'm about to lay down a review for the only venue you should use for your wedding.First off, the venue itself. Honestly not much to look at on the outside. Definitely clean, but not picturesque. BUT. Step inside and treat your eyes to an absolutely gorgeous reception area full of polished wooden accents and stunning tin ceilings. Plus, clean bathrooms with plenty of stalls and a very comfortable bridal salon. The open-air chapel-like structure is near a few ordinary business centers, but you can't see them when you're in the chapel itself. Have Leah tell you all about it - super cool story!Speaking of Leah and her staff...they are extraordinary! They are what really won us over. Leah, Evan, and Lindsey are fun, professional, and knowledgeable, and they genuinely care about your event and how YOU feel about it. Your ideas are important to them, and they're conscientious about your budget.And they all went above and beyond anything we could have hoped for. Leah held my train when I walked in. Evan memorized guest names and orders like he has some kind of photographic memory. Lindsey made us a crest to go on the wall at the reception!Book your wedding here. You will not regret it.

I have also attended another wedding here and because my wedding was coming up I was watching carefully.

Whether I saw them at a scheduled meeting time, called them on the phone, popped over to see something, or ran into them at another event, they had nothing but kind words of encouragement to share with me as a stressed-out bride. They went out of their way to make sure that I had everything I needed and to reassure me that I was well on my way to the wedding of my dreams. They went above and beyond, stepping in to help with the setup of decorations and last minute things I had forgotten to do (I mentioned to Evan as my dad and I started walking down the aisle that I had forgotten to have someone put out the grooms cake and he took care of it during the ceremony!). Even when we had to delay the start time of the ceremony due to traffic, they were reassuring and helped redo the timeline with all of our other vendors so that the ceremony and reception went off without anyone knowing that we hadn't started on time.It's weird to say this about a vendor, but I miss them. They were such an important part of my life for the months leading up to my wedding and now I have no reason to see them anymore.

All the staff was so welcoming and made our big day completely effortless. 10/10 would recommend and hang out with all of them again. Reviewed on 08-10-2017
Lindsey Nelson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 30-09-2017 We had our wedding ceremony and reception at The Pavilion Event Space and it was beyond what we had hoped it would be. When we walked into The Pavilion, we fell in love. It is absolutely stunning on the inside, with amazing antiqued ceiling, and so many beautiful chandeliers. The outdoor space is absolutely breath taking during the day, and also at night. It allowed for so many awesome photo opportunities. Kacie is the owner, and takes so much pride in her work, and works so well with all of my vendors. She literally has everything down to a science; she knows what works and what doesn’t, what looks good/bad. At The Pavilion, there are a variety of décor options, to choose from that come with the package, which made the centerpieces so beautiful and easy. The Pavilion is pristine and drop dead gorgeous. My husband and I and my family were treated like we were the most important guests that The Pavilion has ever had. Kacie was our coordinator, and she made the entire wedding planning a breeze! She makes you feel like family, and makes your wedding day go perfectly. And not just Kacie was great, but every person of their staff that we worked with was wonderful.We opted not to have a wedding coordinator, and not once did I question if anything would be just as we thought it would have thanks to Kacie and her team. The staff did EVERYTHING I asked to make my wedding a fantastic event. She worked with us down to every detail and it was exactly how we had pictured it when we showed up the day of.Besides the amazing coordinating and staff, the DJ was amazing. Andrew Termini “DJ Termini” kept our dance floor packed the whole night, in fact, we never wanted to leave. He kept the flow of the wedding so smooth. He really takes the time to get to know you as a couple and what you want for your wedding day. Looking back at our pictures, the space not only accommodated our wedding and reception, but also photographed perfectly and made for the best background for our forever pictures.Thank you again to Kacie and her Pavilion Event Space team for all that you did to make our dream special day a reality.

Felicia Addison(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-09-2017 The beauty of the Pavilion is unmatched. Both the Grove wedding ceremony space and the ballroom marvel in comparison to all of the other venues we visited in our search of finding the perfect place to hold our ceremony and reception. Overall, the staff was pleasant to work with and very helpful. My only complaints were 1)the responses for requests for changes and 2)the DJ. It seemed like there was push back from the owner whenever we wanted to make changes to accommodate our specific wants for our special day, including using our own DJ and making changes to the layout that would better accommodate our guests. At times, it came off as rudeness and was not very pleasant. Since the Pavilion includes the price of their DJ in the cost and we were going to have to pay for him regardless, we thought it would be best to use him rather than spending additional money for another one. We spoke with the DJ prior to our wedding as it seemed that he was not familiar with our preferred music choices. He assured us that he would \"meet and exceed our expectations\" during the reception. While he was very nice, a lot of fun when it came time to do the tosses, willing to do whatever we requested with the music, and pleasant to work with, it was clear at the reception that he wasn't very familiar with our desired music genres. Looking back, I would have eaten the cost and hired a DJ of our choice just to have more of our desired music played. Reviewed on 27-09-2017

Kevin Newsome(wedding party)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-09-2017 If you are looking for a venue you must see the Pavilion in person. The pictures do not due it justice. BUT the main attraction at the Pavilion is Kacie and her entire team. Kacie and Evan (the bartender) were professional and delightful. Kacie's organizational skills are beyond belief. Evan was on top of all the guests needs. Our guests enjoyed him immensely. He made everyone feel good. Kacie noticed little things before we did and corrections were made before anyone knew (our timing issues.) Everything was on time and flowed seamlessly. The evening as a delight for everyone. We cannot say enough good things about Kacie, Evan and the entire staff who worked with us from beginning to end to make the day a success and memorable.

Our bartender, Evan Culp, went above and beyond in taking care of our guests and helping us with many other serving issues that arose throughout the night. I guarantee you cannot find anyone better to work with than Evan and Kacie, even if you pay a bunch more money. Their work ethic is rare, and their kindness and professionalism impressive.

They worked the bar for our reception and our cater ended up leaving early without cutting the cake and Leah just hopped on there and started to cut it for us!

My daughter first fell in love with the photos on-line, and then we discovered it was even more beautiful in person. It has an elegant and comfortable, spacious feel, lovely entrance, darling bridal room, great sound system and offers endless layout options! Kacie (the owner) and Leah were absolutely wonderful to work with - consistently approachable, friendly, responsive, flexible and professional from beginning to end! Kacie even surprised me with a personalized sign to reserve my chosen seat at my table! When I mentioned one guest was sensitive to an overhead fan, voila! it was turned off above that table in an instant. Evan (the bartender who works closely with them) stayed in regular contact as the event day approached, advised us on our liquor purchases and quantities and even offered customized drinks. Afterwards, one guest made a point of telling me how special he made them feel. Our chosen caterer, PB&J (again, recommended by them) set up a variety of food stations offering beautiful display and delicious food served by an efficient and friendly staff.

SANDY TRADER(wedding party)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-07-2018 If you are looking for the PERFECT wedding Venue…THIS IS IT!!! Where to even start—when our daughter got engaged back in February 2016 we started searching for a Venue. At first, we didn’t even think about the Pavilion because we had been in there in the past, even had used the smaller room for a baby shower and didn’t think it was what we were looking for. But when searching the net we came across The Pavilion website and saw in was under new ownership and the pictures were like wow can this be the same place. Well we one day we were attending a bridal show somewhere else and decided we wanted to check out the Pavilion. We called ahead and they said, sure come on over and check us out. So we headed to the Pavilion and let me tell you, we were not disappointed. The Venue was Amazing!! My daughter and her Fiancée loved it, so we checked availability and they chose a Saturday in May 2017. The next few months we got rolling with lots of ideas, but had lots of question that kept coming up. Kacie was always there for us with answers, I emailed, called and stopped by several times and she was always so helpful and always so NICE! Kacie and her staff are truly there for you every step of the way. NOW On to EVAN… We chose to use the bartending services the Pavilion offered after meeting Evan. Once again we were not disappointed!! My daughter wanted two signature drinks to match the colors of the wedding, one pink and one green. Evan came up with 2 amazing drinks, the Tropical Haven and the Mojitos. He also always made himself available for questions…Even made himself available through text, when it got close and I had questions on my shopping list for the Bar. Evan was AWESOME and we would hire him again without question. If ever we are need of bar services again; Evan will be who we will call!!!! There is one more person that I need to mention and that is Lauren. Lauren was at our rehearsal to make sure all of our needs were met as well as at our Wedding/Reception last Saturday, she also was Amazing!!! Make sure you check out the new outdoor area, it makes for some beautiful photos. I could go on and on how great the Pavilion was, but I’ll just end with saying our daughter’s wedding last Saturday May 13th,2017 was AMAZING!!!! Thank you Kacie-Evan and Lauren.

Linda Sloan(wedding party)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 19-11-2016 My daughter was married at The Pavilion Event Space November 4, 2016. We had the ceremony, reception/dance all in one location with approximately 105 attending. The venue was spectacular. All of our family and friends couldn’t believe how gorgeous everything was decorated. We did pay for additional items such as the logo on the wall, the crystal candelabras for the head table and gift table, upgraded white crushed taffeta table cloths, uplighting in royal blue, additional time in the venue for hair/makeup and rehearsal time the night before. We did not do a “flip” with the ceremony chairs as we had just enough room for everything to leave it was it was setup. Kacie (the owner) and Leah plus the rest of their staff did an awesome job of setting up everything as we wanted it. Both Kacie and Leah were there the day of the wedding to help with issues as they came up. Leah was the “day of coordinator” for us making sure everyone was in their place for the ceremony etc. They also worked with our vendors before and the day of the wedding.Enough can’t be said for the venue, the staff, and our overall experience. We just received our preliminary photos from the wedding and the venue just added to the entire ambiance of the wedding and reception.

How do I begin to describe the Pavilion Event Space? The space has been beautifully renovated and we knew the second we stepped in we'd be saying \"I do\" here. The grand ballroom comfortably accommodated our 250 guests and even has the perfect bridal suite, you'll feel like a queen! Kacie, the owner, could not have been sweeter.
