I can not say enough about The Hobbs Building as a venue and Feasts of Fancy as a caterer! One of the best decisions that we made with regard to our wedding is to host the ceremony and reception at this venue! The service was UNBELIEVABLE! Planning was a breeze with the help of their coordinators; they made sure we had thought of everything and worked so hard the day of the wedding to make sure everything was perfect. Some of the staff even helped me pin my dress as one of the seams had ripped during the reception. They made sure my husband and I had everything we needed with regard to food and drink and even pulled me aside later in the night to make sure I had a snack and could cool off. We have received MANY compliments on the quality of the food. The caterers are AMAZING! They took a family recipe of an Indian dish and made it perfectly! The creator of the recipe even said it tasted exactly like hers. I would recommend this venue to anyone for any event. It is truly worth every penny and probably more! The service and quality that you recieve will make your day a perfect one! The venue is unique and gorgeous at night and you won't get better catering in Kansas City!
Honestly, one of the best decisions we have ever made is calling Mary and Joel for our wedding. They are so extremely talented and two of the kindest people you will ever meet. Their photos are breathtaking and leave you wondering how any two people could do such beautiful job at capturing exactly who you are in a single shot. Their photos will make you laugh, make you cry, and make you remember EXACTLY how you felt on the day of your wedding. Their work is so unobtrusive that you barely notice that they are snapping shots throughout the day. They spent so much time with us, including two days of ceremonies before our Indian meets Western wedding and were truly part of our wedding, not just another "vendor".
And it doesn't stop there; they don't just take jaw-dropping photos, they create custom invitations that will exceed any expectations that you would ever have about a piece of paper. Three months later and post-wedding, we are STILL getting compliments on our invititions. I promise, you won't find anything more creative, more unique or more beautiful than what they can create for you. They really get to know who you are and work tirelessly to get everything right. Mary and Joel are also able to recommend equally talented florists, dress-makers, bakers, etc with the same passion and creativity that you absolutely will not find in your typical run-of-the-mill wedding vendors.
We absolutely can not say enough about Mary and Joel, personally and professionally! We would recommend them to any one for any event as they are, beyond doubt, two of the most talented and sincere people we have ever met.
Bridget is absolutely AMAZING! From the first time that we met her, we knew she was going to be easy to work with and do a unbelievable job. She listened to our ideas for our Indian meets Western wedding and got to know us and our vision. When I walked into the reception room, I truly could not believe how gorgeous everything looked. My family, who was there to help, can not stop talking about how sweet and talented Bridget is. She also constructed a mandap for us (like a Jewish chuppah) out of curly willow and flowers that could not have been more perfect! She was really able to set the tone for our wedding and incorporate cultural aspects that would likely be missed by your run-of-the-mill florist. Bridget is so caring and talented. With no question, I would recommend her to anyone for any event!
I'm not the type of gal who wanted a huge wedding dress with millions of layers and fluff. I had a really terrible time dress shopping, as you can imagine, until I met Janay. We originally planned to make a custom design dress, which fit exactly what I was looking for. She did an amazing job listening to what I wanted and creating a sketch of my vision. Then, I found my mothers wedding dress from the 70s with little expectation that anything could be done to make it more modern without ruining it. When I took it to Janay, she listened to my ideas about how we could alter it to make it perfect for my wedding day and had amazing suggestions of how to maintain its integrity through the alteration process. She was completely honest about things that could not be fixed and always had a work-around for something I didn't like. She was diligent in making sure everything about the dress was exactly what I wanted and I can say that she far exceeded my expectations as the dress turned out exactly what I was looking for. She even took some of the left over material that was cut off the sleeves of the dress and made a beautiful hair clip for me to wear in lieu of a veil. It was so very special for my mom and I to share the same dress and Janay absolutely made that happen for us. I got so many compliments at the wedding on the dress and I can never thank Janay enough for making a very special dress a true gift for my wedding day.

Jeff Holmes did an amazing job at our wedding ceremony and reception. He was open to our ideas regarding music selections and had great suggestions for things we could not think of. He is so fun and nice and amazing to work with. I was nervous about our reception as we had an Indian/Western wedding and I did not know if everyone would dance to the different types of music. Jeff did a REMARKABLE job of getting everyone on the dance floor and having a good time, even if the music was unfamiliar to them. His music selections and timing could not have been better and he is really able to read a crowd to see what is going to get people up and having fun. People were dancing non-stop at our reception and everyone has commented on what a great job he did and how much fun they had. A million thanks to Jeff!

Katie did an amazing job on my make-up and my wedding party's make up. The only reason I rated her lower for Responsiveness and Professionalism is that I found it very difficult to schedule appointments or even get an e-mail response back from her in a timely manner. When attempting to schedule the trial-run with her, I did not hear back from her for several weeks. After three weeks, I called and left a message asking her to let me know if she was still available to do my make-up because I needed to find someone else if she wasn't and she called back right away. With that said, the day of the wedding, she was very timely and did a great job on everyone's make-up. I purchased the "pampered bride" package for myself and I didn't really see much of a difference in my make-up versus the regular make-up for the rest of the girls. She forgot to bring the full set of fake lashes for me (which was an extra cost included in the pampered bride package) but had just a couple of lashes that she used. Just be mindful if you are thinking of the pampered bride package that in my experience it wasn't really that much different and not worth the extra money (which I just considered part of the tip in the end and didn't ask for a refund). One great thing that I would recommend is having the touch-up service (especially if you are having make-up done quite a few hours before the ceremony). Katie came to the wedding venue 30 minutes before the start of the wedding to touch everyone up and was very helpful in that way. I was very pleased with the actual service. Just be mindful of response time and what package you purchase.
Accent Special Event Rental Kansas City, Missouri 64116
We used Accent Rental for our ceremony chairs and all of our linens. Their price was much better than other companies that we had interviewed and we were happy with the actual products that we recieved. My only complaint is that I worked with several different people throughout the planning process and it didn't seem that they had a very good tracking system. On multiple occassions, I had to re-confirm exactly what I wanted on my order as they had a couple of different invoices in their system for me. I think this was a result of working with several different people, who had each entered seperate proposals/invoices for our wedding. This proved to be a small headache throughout planning as they called a week before the wedding to say that I had not paid a deposit so they assumed the event was no longer on. I had to call them back and provide proof of payment and they finally pulled up the right invoice and explained that they had just pulled the wrong one. Finally, a week after the wedding they called to say that they were missing some linens and a substantial number of napkins. Now, it is three weeks later and we still have not resolved that issue as no one has returned my follow up calls. I called to see if the missing linens ever turned up or if it was an counting issue during inventory (I find it hard to believe that our venue who was EXCELLENT and very detail oriented failed to put these linens in the return bag), but have not yet heard anything back. At one point during my follow-up call, they seemed confused as if there was another bride by the same name and maybe it was her wedding? Overall, we were happy with the acutal chairs and linens (which were clean and very nice) and their delivery service, but some organizational and customer service issues might be something to look out for.
