About

On WeddingWire since 2020

Housed in the restored Fire Station No. 31, Fire House KC has been meticulously renovated with tradition and elegance. Throughout the entire space, several preserved accessories and artifacts from the era are showcased, including the original fire pole, antique fire hose cart, and fire hose shaft. Blending the history of the area with modern infusions, Fire House KC is now a classy, elegant, and charming event space. The main hall showcases original brick walls and windows, with antique chandeliers adding a touch of elegant refinement. The second floor, which once housed the offices and sleeping quarters for one-duty workers, now features multiple suites for the wedding parties to prepare as well as a perfect intimate ceremony room. A private courtyard space is also available, making an ideal area for a ceremony, cocktail hour, or for guests to enjoy a breath of fresh air. Couples who choose to celebrate here can invite up to 150 of their loved ones to enjoy the celebrations in this truly remarkable location. Newlyweds-to-be can host both ceremonies and receptions at Fire House KC and have access to the entire space. Located in the heart of Kansas City, our intimate venue is perfect for your wedding or unique event. With the 1930's architecture, natural light, historic charm and stunning courtyard, Fire House KC creates a lovely, intimate setting to celebrate!
