The Best Wedding Reception Venue in Downtown Kansas City

The Guild is the best wedding reception venue in downtown Kansas City. No, but seriously - we researched & toured a LOT of venues. For the price, you won’t find anything like it in downtown Kansas City. Not only is it a completely stunning, photogenic venue with an outdoor garden space in a fantastic location, but it has unmatched customer service. Chelsea, Darren & the rest of The Guild staff made us feel like VIPs from our venue tour to booking to planning to wedding-day & even after. They were kind, respectful, knowledgeable, responsive & flexible. All of our guests were in awe of the venue and wedding day in general. Many said it was, “one of the best weddings they’ve ever been to,” (and not just to our face).

Book The Guild. You will not regret it.

Our Perfect Venue

The Guild was 100% venue of my DREAMS and Chelsea was the cherry on top. You could not ask for a more helpful venue manager! She was quick to communicate, had expertise ready to share on what has worked in the past or what she would recommend, created mock-ups of our ceremony and reception set-up, answered 900 of my questions - she is truly a star and loves what she does.

The venue is stunning. It was the first one we walked through and I was sold. The bar is gorgeous, there are both bridal and groom suites, a garden space, an indoor cocktail space, and OMG...that chandelier. The floors are a statement and the variety of walls (brick, wood, subway tile, window panes, etc.) give you plenty of indoor space for all kinds of pictures. Oh - and did I mention reserved parking lots and plenty of bathrooms?

If I could do it all again, the only change I would make would be not wasting my time walking through any other venue. Best venue and venue manager in KC - hands down.

Beautiful space

The Guild is stunning. A little oasis in the city. I was so impressed with how everything looked. The courtyard was just as beautiful at night as it was during our ceremony. Inside the modern rustic space with the giant chandelier you barely need to add any decorations. We used the many different textures of wall for our wedding party photo shoot. The staff was very professional and helped get us through several covid postponements. Also very helpful with the layout of tables and the day of manager was on site to set up and answer any of our day of questions.
