About this venue

Blue Vista is an inspiring lakefront venue and retreat just north of Randolph, Kansas. This elegant and modern venue boasts breathtaking views of Tuttle Creek Lake and the Flint Hills, and the pristinely landscaped property makes a perfect backdrop for those memorable photos. Couples can immerse themselves in the stunning natural beauty and host an outdoor event, or enjoy the outdoors through the copious windows within the event buildings. The staff is detail-oriented and trained to execute a flawless wedding day event.

Facilities and Capacity

Blue Vista has a few spaces for couples to consider for their wedding day events. For smaller gatherings, the venue’s Stone Lodge Hearth Room is cozy and rustic for up to 70 guests.

The hall features not only indoor seating, but also a terrace outside that leads to the Rose Quarry outdoor space.

Beautiful!

Getting married at Blue Vista was seriously like a movie. The venue is so naturally beautiful. The views, the glass windows, the natural lighting… I could go on forever. The owner, Drew, was super helpful for not only the day of, but a good portion of the wedding planning process as well. I have nothing but great things to say!

Great overall experience

Only one negative; they show the place while you're decorating/tearing down.

But it's a beautiful place with amazing amenities!

A DREAM come true!!!

This venue was a DREAM COME TRUE!!! We couldn’t have imagined a more perfect day at a more picturesque place, and thanks to Drew at the Blue Vista we were able to make our dream wedding day a reality. Not only is the venue itself incredible, but the lodge that is also on-site was fantastic for accommodations for the bridesmaids. It was more beautiful than any hotel we had ever stayed at, and you couldn’t beat the view. We also used the lodge as the site for the girls and guys to get ready, which was perfect. The upstairs suite is a perfect bridesmaid get-away while the downstairs of the lodge provides ample space for the groomsmen to set up some games and hang out before they get ready. The outdoor ceremony site has one of the most fantastic views as well, absolutely STUNNING. We never thought our dream destination wedding was in Manhattan, KS, but this venue was by far the most beautiful venue we had seen (and we looked all over the country). I would give Drew and the Blue Vista 10 stars on here if I could— this place is absolutely unbeatable.

Our photos were taken by Meg McGee of Backcountry Imagery — she is FABULOUS!!

Great venue with even greater views!

Large building with a wall of glass that shows the beauty of rolling hills and Tuttle Creek. This venue offers amazing views which are pretty hard to find in Kansas.

Absolutely Amazing Venue

Blue Vista is an amazing venue with an even better view! Drew was professional and extremely helpful the weekend of the wedding. I would highly recommend Blue Vista to everyone. I don't see how we could have had a better experience with Drew and his team at Blue Vista.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
