We struggled finding a reception venue in our area that would be of reasonable cost but exceptional style. Both my husband and I agreed that we would not go to the Ritz Charles because we had had so many functions there. We were so very wrong! Everything at the reception was absolutely beautiful. The food was delicious and for a reasonable price per person, we were able to get an open bar. The staff is amazing and very flexible! Everyone at the Ritz was a delight to work with! I had tried working with a hotel in the area, and they were completely unresponsive. Please give them a look, you won't regret it.
Lucinda is, hands-down, an incredible photographer. As soon as I saw her pictures, I knew that she was the photographer for our wedding. Lucinda was very nice and easy to work with, most always meeting our wants and needs as the consumer graciously and professionally. When it came down to scheduling the day, she provided some very helpful tips and time lines to make our day flow seamlessly. Her work is absolutely gorgeous and speaks for itself.
Caren was absolutely wonderful to work with. We met with her to decide the cake design and based on my very vague descriptions, she created the perfect cake! I did a TON of research on cake designers and she is, by far, the best, cheapest and easiest to work with in the Kansas City area. I loved that she didn't tack on extra fees here and there but rather had one set price regardless of fillings and flavors. Our reception was in a gigantic hall, so she created very reasonable "floater" cakes to create an enormous cake that was proportional to our room. Also, one thing that is neat about her cakes is that the sheet cakes in the kitchen are EXACTLY the same as the pieces that come from the wedding cake. You might not think this is a big deal, but think about it: if some of your guests are served from the wedding cake and some are served from the sheet cake at the same table, your guests will notice a big difference in quality, size and appearance. This is NOT the case with Caren's Cakes.
Our wedding cake was absolutely delicious and still is even a couple of months later! :)
My husband and I are so glad we booked both our video and DJ through Complete Music and Video. We attended several bridal shows and were honestly intimidated by the energy and enthusiasm displayed by Complete Music and Video at the booth. As a result, we had eliminated them from our list because we had a very diverse group of guests. After consulting with our photographer and other vendors, the kept recommending Complete Music and Video and said that their DJ's have a range of personalities from outgoing (like the ones we saw at the bridal shows), to calm and soft spoken. We chose a DJ with a moderate personality (calm at the beginning of the evening and more outgoing towards the end of the night) and it fit our event perfectly!
Because we booked both DJ and Videography through them, they provided a budget friendly discount for us. We have yet to receive our wedding video, but I am positive it will be fantastic.

CaraSue is a wonderful person who does amazing makeup! She put my makeup on at 8:30 am and it lasted all day long-- well past midnight. She has ample experience applying makeup for people who will be in front of the camera... so I know the pictures will look great! If you're someone like me, you're wondering whether or not you should spend the money getting your makeup done when you know you're completely capable of doing it yourself. I had that battle and am so glad I chose to have it professionally done. Not only did it last all day, but I got so many complements from guests and it's one less stress to such an emotion filled day!
