Fantastic venue. Beautiful and incredibly versatile.

We could not have asked for a better wedding venue or a better person to work with! From the very beginning, Ashlyn was absolutely incredible. Incredibly kind, easy to work with, and so knowledgeable about the entire wedding process. Whether it was vendor recommendations, layout ideas, or answering our (many) questions, they were there for us every step of the way.

The venue itself is stunning. It’s beautiful on its own, but also so versatile. We loved how much you can do with the space to make it truly your own. It’s ideal not only for weddings, but also for hosting a variety of events, big or small. Our guests couldn’t stop complimenting the setting and the overall vibe.

If you're looking for a space with character, flexibility, and an amazing person behind the scenes to help guide you, this is it!

Amazing venue

I planned my wedding from far away and did not even see the venue until the day of. Thankfully, the venue was totally the right choice. Very cool historic building with lots of fun different spaces good for pictures. They coordinated a lot for us, day of coordination, catering, flowers and everything was reasonably priced and turned out lovely. Highly recommend.

Highly recommend

Town Square decorated the private room we had at a local restaurant for a rehearsal dinner. Our son, his bride, and I enjoyed the short drive to Paola to meet with Michelle and talk about decor for the tables. They provided beautiful floral centerpieces, floating candles, and also set out a pretty welcome table with framed pictures of the couple which we provided. The bride and I were both very happy with how the room looked. I dropped by the restaurant early to check on something and was pleasantly surprised that it was decorated early, so I was able to go to the rehearsal knowing everything was ready in case guests arrived early.

Best wedding venue in Kansas!

Town Square was a fantastic venue! We worked with Michelle, Tammy and Beth for 10 months and had a wonderful experience and wedding. Tammy helped us navigate the food tasting and it was absolutely fabulous. Great food. She also helped us with decorating choices. We worked mostly with Beth though and she does the flowers. Our wedding flowers for the table were gorgeous and we had many compliments. Had several different simple flower centerpieces and she did a great job with all of them. My bouquet was just what I wanted-different shades of lilac with white stock and scabiosa and a few eucalyptus leaves. She had great ideas for decorations both inside and out and we needed that direction. Always cheerful, always available to talk or text and never pushy. All three ladies let us have free rein and worked hard to make our vision happen. We had a bridal luncheon for the bridal party on the day of and it was great chicken salad, sandwiches, fresh fruit, chips and cookies. Perfect. The food at the reception was truly delicious and we had many compliments. I just wish I could have eaten more but didn't have time! And the wedding cake! Michelle is the cake baker/decorator and she did a phenomenal job with our cake. We had two cakes, a 3 tier white with raspberry filling and white buttercream icing and a chocolate sheet cake with white buttercream icing. I had emailed a picture of a cake decorated with different sized edible pearls all over it and Michelle nailed it! The cake was beautiful-just what I wanted-but it was also delicious. We got lots of compliments on the cake too. The photographer said it was the best wedding cake she has ever tasted and she tastes lots of them. Town Square is such a unique venue with brick walls, tin ceiling, original wood floors and a beautiful wooden staircase and railings connecting the 3 floors. Makes for wonderful, unique photos. We had a smaller wedding and reception with about 60 people yet the spacious street level room didn't feel cavernous because they know how to arrange everything. Plenty of room for dancing, a DJ set up, food tables, cake table and all the other tables. We had an outdoor ceremony in front of the gazebo and they did a great job setting up as we wanted. All included in the price which, by the way, we thought was quite reasonable. We would recommend Town Square to anyone for any kind of celebration. They're professional, great to work with and most knowledgable about weddings. Michelle has done a fantastic job and she has a great staff. Recommend highly!

I have not stopped hearing “you two picked the PERFECT venue!!!” since I got married. Town Square was everything I wanted. It was so naturally gorgeous that decor was an after thought and only a perk. The staff took all of my notes and everything was just the way I wanted it when I walked in on the big day. Every single staff member including the bartenders were kind and respectful to all of our guests from all walks of life. I cannot say enough about this place!!!!!

I am an event coordinator with The Veil KC, I recently worked with Town Square Paola for a fundraiser where they were the cater. As impending weather approached Michelle proved once again why people matter. She graciously opened up her venue to host our event and they were above and beyond amazing! Flexible doesn't it cut it, the word has not been invited on how amazing Michelle / Beth and the entire team. TRULY the ENTIRE TEAM. There is a level of care and commitment to your events. Brides, Event mangers, this is the place to have your events!!! You will not be disappointed. That was just the service! The food, the service, the beauty. It has it all!! As a Miami county girl myself I am reminded how sometimes in the city we get to busy - customer service is king, and you all were impeccable.
From everyone at The Veil KC. THANK YOU!!!!

I used Town Square for decorating, coordination, cake and flowers. I only had to meet with Michelle a few times in order to get the wedding of my dreams. She came out to my venue the day before and the day of and made sure my wedding went off without a hitch. I haven't stopped getting compliments about how beautiful everything was and how much detail went into the decor. We got married at a farm and Michelle's vision matched perfectly with mine. I just showed her a few things that I liked and told her our theme and she came up with the rest. Her cupcakes were absolutely delicious and the flowers went well with the rest of the decor. The best thing about this vendor is that she is invested in making your wedding what you want it to be right down to the last detail. She is experienced and knowledgeable about all things wedding. I felt like I could trust her to tell me if something would or wouldn't work. She was also able to work well with my other vendors to make sure that everything went as smoothly as possible. Did I think I could have a wedding without a planner? Absolutely. Am I glad I had one? Absolutely!

We had our ceremony and reception at Town Square and it was absolutely fantastic! Tammy, our coordinator, was so helpful and responsive leading up to the wedding! Town Square and the staff did everything for us: flowers, DJ, food, bar, etc. And everything was amazing!! They made our wedding so fun and completely stress-free! We cannot thank them enough, and we will be recommending them to everyone we know!
