The Venue At Willow Creek is one of the best wedding venues in the Kansas City area! I decided to have my wedding back in May at this amazing location and I was not disappointed. The staff are extremely nice, professional, and dedicated to making sure your special day is as magical and stress free as possible. The venue offers a large quantity of decorations to use, a vast variety of different food options or outside catering options, and a lovely stocked bar with a tasty cocktail selection to choose from. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a venue for their wedding and would strongly suggest booking before the year is completed booked. Reviewed on 18-12-2023

The Venue at Willow Creek is so PHENOMENAL!!! I cannot speak highly enough of them. Both as a venue and as a vendor to work with. Right from the start they were so eager and willing to answer questions! I sent them so many emails over a few months as questions kept popping up and they were always professional and prompt to answer and assure me that they were happy to help. It was such a comfort knowing that they had everything organized and taken care of on the big day - I honestly had no worries that things were going to get set up or taken care of - they handled everything! And get this - another HUGE perk - they have some decorations included in the cost for your use!! We're talking table numbers, candle holders, signs, vases, the arbor, adorable white trees, and more. So I spent much less on decorations than I originally expected and when planning a wedding, everything counts!! I am not good with flowery speeches, but let me tell you, this place is worth writing a long review! KayCee is so sweet and wonderful to work with! She actually cared about our vision for the big day and anything she could do to help. So very thrilled that we found this place and that it was available for the day we needed! The decorations and wonderful people aside, the venue space itself is BEAUTIFUL!! So much natural light and a gorgeous, large outdoor patio with string lights and hanging baskets full of vibrant flowers! With patio seating, a large green lawn surrounded by trees, and glass doors that open up to the outside, I was sold on this place just for the outdoor space. Now unfortunately, my wedding was October 29th, 2023, the ONE cold weekend of the year so far and we're already in mid December sooooo we didn't get to use the outdoor space much, but the inside is so stunning, it didn't disappoint! We had to make a decision on the weather at the last minute and move the ceremony indoors but KayCee and the crew were so flexible, it was SO seamless that the guests said they didn't notice it was originally supposed to be outside! The venue is so beautiful that a couple of our friends came up to us afterwards asking for the details of the space, saying that they want to get married there as well! It is remarkably affordable for the space, decorations, and overall great experience working with the staff. I would totally recommend you check this place out!! Reviewed on 14-12-2023

Emalee Martin(bride)2 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-11-2022 We picked this venue because we fell in love with the outdoor space! Throughout the process of planning the wedding the communication with the venue became frustrating. There were times where we waited a month for our checks to be deposited and a lot of information was unclear such as how much event time we had and when that event time would start. At our final meeting at venue we noticed they started construction which I would have liked to be notified about because they had to remove some trees from the outdoor space. During the day of the venue staff was rude to not only myself but my family as well. Every time we came to the venue we were not greeted by anyone we had to go up to the staff to say hi we are here for them to acknowledge us. Morning of the wedding when I arrived to the venue I was informed they did not send accurate information to the florist, so I had to make decisions on best plan for arbor the day of. They had a venue tour while I was getting ready for the wedding, so I was getting dressed and trying to find the best light for photographers while complete strangers were walking by. The venue waited last minute to set up chairs for the outdoor space and set up linens on the tables which put stress on our photographer to capture details due to having to wait on the venue staff. Overall the space has a great beautiful outdoor space, but would have liked communication to be more clear and customer service focused. Reviewed on 11-12-2022

We knew when we walked in the door that this was the perfect venue for our daughter's reception. Lindsey made sure that all our questions were answered and Allison made sure our night went without a hitch. They communicated with us about every detail, made suggestions to help us make our guests more comfortable and encouraged us to be creative and personal on this special night. The staff working behind the scenes were professional and competent. We had two bars outside and used the patio as the dance floor. This allowed people to enjoy the beautiful outdoor area either on the dance floor or on one of the comfy seating areas. I could not have been more impressed when Allison made sure our sparkler send off got moved up in order to beat the rain. That attention to detail meant the world to my daughter! It was one of the most important parts of the night for her! We have had multiple people tell us it was the most beautiful and fun wedding they've ever been to.

The dance floor was set up right in front of the head table and we just moved some tables later in the night which was perfect for everybody to come out and dance!We set up the bars outside on the patio, one was under the covered patio and one was all the way outside. Our photo booth was under the covered patio as well which worked out wonderfully! The yard games and big grassy area were clutch to keep the little kids entertained. Also, we used Olive Events for catering which was one of the recommended caterers from the Venue. People are still asking about the mac and cheese!!! We also got the s'more bar from Olive Events which was a hit! Seriously, this place was perfect and it couldn't have gone any better!

From the moment we \"barged\" in on the venue a year ago-while they were setting up for another event, Lindsey took the time to show us around and answer all of our questions.

It has a rustic but very elegant feel and is awesome for creating a relaxed but still beautiful feel to the big day. We had out reception here this past month and everything was great. They nailed the details and were very accommodating to our needs. We lucked out with a super hot day but we were able to still utilize the outdoor area out back once the sun started going down. We had a smores bar set up outside and it's also a great place for a wedding with kids because they were occupied the whole time! Everyone had a blast! Reviewed on 24-07-2016

Surrounded by big woods and the lake the picture taking opportunities are endless. The Venue itself was amazing. The design of the building, the layout of the grounds and the outdoor areas and patio are all great. We have had 100's of compliments and continue to get them. We had the ceremony on the grounds down by the creek. It was awesome. The suites for the bride and groom were great for relaxing in before the festivities got started. As far as planning goes they make it very easy, meeting with you and giving you their insight from their years of experience. They are very flexible as we had some unusual requests and ideas. It all worked out and when the day came everything went flawless. They were onsite the entire day and night making sure everything went well and it did. The most important thing on your wedding day is enjoying it and not worrying about scheduling and such, and we never worried about a thing, they had us covered. It was a great day, at a great venue.

Anonymous (groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-02-2017 This journey began back in September for a surprise engagement and Wedding in one. I was searching for a venue that was classy, elegant, warm and inviting and found all of that and more in the Venue at Willow Creek. I had my heart set on another venue until I stepped foot into the room with vaulted ceilings, stained floors, and just an overall comforting feel. I was sold immediately. Not only was was it everything that I was looking for but it was practically in my back yard. My now mother in law recommended the Venue to me based on the reputation and party planning skills of Marisa Roberts. I am grateful she did. Marisa was excited from the get go about my plans for this surprise. Her suggestions for things such as the fire pit, smores bar, outdoor games for the kids and signature cocktails for the adults :) were all a huge hit. The additions made the night more enjoyable and comfortable for everyone. The food from Olive Catering was nothing short of amazing. Everyone that took part raved about it. From the passed hors d'oeuvres to the brazed brisket. Exquisite! \rLindsey was a godsend. As a planner she was on top of things immediately. She helped in every aspect of coordination and had wonderful suggestions that led me to pulling off this surprise. She made sure all of our families and closest friends (who all thought they were attending a surprise engagement party) were in their places and were coordinated for our big reveal. All of the staff were professional, friendly and did an overall amazing job. Every aspect was 5star. I would definitely recommend The Venue at Willow Creek to anyone looking for a top notch facility and staff. They will definitely recieve my business again. Reviewed on 16-12-2015
Megan Moriarty(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-11-2015 My husband and I were looking for a non-traditional venue for our ceremony, something other than a church or a hotel ballroom. I heard about The Venue at Willow Creek from my hair stylist, whose cousin was planning a wedding there. I immediately called Marisa and scheduled a tour, since it sounded exactly like what we wanted. I do a lot of running at the neighboring lake, and my husband grew up in New Hampshire, so the location was special for both of us. \r\rThe outdoor ceremony site along the creek was perfect! We planned an outdoor wedding in front of the beautiful fall leaves, and really lucked out with the weather. There are so many thoughtful details that made Willow Creek the perfect spot for us. The barn doors leading into the outdoor ceremony space, the chandeliers hung from the tree, the moonlight patio and the back yard facing the tree line gave the venue a special ambiance. The woods surrounding the venue give a secluded feeling, but the venue was easy to get to and find. The fire pits on the patio and the buiId-your-own-sâmores bar was such a fun feature for both us and our guests, and really gave the reception that outdoorsy feeling we wanted. \r\rI could say so many good things about the venue, and working with Marisa and Lindsey was so easy. They really anticipated our needs and had helpful suggestions along the way. The Venue at Willow Creek really was âthe perfect spot we had been wishing for!â I would recommend it to any bride looking for a unique, natural venue with lots of personal touches.
