Heritage Event Spaces Reviews

I loved having our wedding ceremony and reception at Heritage Event Spaces, 1923 Room. It was beautiful through and through. There were so many locations at the venue for gorgeous pictures, the bridal suite was phenomenal, the space for the ceremony and reception was elegant and intimate (but still quite spacious!), and the event coordinators were lovely and kind people. They answered all my questions throughout the whole process, and they were understanding of our unique needs. I fully recommend.

We loved the event space. The space was perfect for our reception. The team that we worked with was friendly, helpful, and overall wonderful. Would highly recommend working with them.

The team at Heritage Events made it super easy to plan everything. We chose their Armour Loft Event Space, which will be closing, but I know you will get the same service at any of their locations. They respond quickly, are affordable, have recommendations to make on almost anything you might ask. The whole process was just super easy and left me with little to worry about.

Choosing to hold our reception at one of the Heritage Event Spaces was such a great decision. Joe and Kelsey were so easy to work with and very helpful throughout our entire planning process. I could genuinely tell they wanted our event to be perfect for us and all of our guests. The venue takes care of tables, linens, chairs, set up, and clean up. It was such a huge help! The open vendor policy was also great, we had more control over the rest of our wedding budget. We highly recommend!

Joe was very professional and friendly through my entire wedding planning process! He answered emails and phone calls in a timely manner. Heritage was an awesome space and I would recommend it to anyone!

Brookside Gardens has actualy just opened on 63rd St. in the Brookside neighborhood. We signed our contract even just based on the unfinished venue. LOVE the space, the bride/groom room setup upstairs is great. We love the huge back patio and the cherry stained wood everywhere. It definitely helped that we signed our contract before the venue's first event and got a lower rate! So excited for our wedding here next summer.

We booked Brookside Gardens for our wedding before it was finished and because of that, got a discounted price on it. We knew it was going to be a great space the moment we walked in. The space itself is beautiful with a really cool wood bar, a LARGE bridal suite upstairs (Seriously, it is a great size!), and a deck out back with pretty Italian lights strung across. Another reason we booked the venue was because of the flexibility in vendors they offer! We could use any caterer, alcohol, and band we wanted! If you want a DJ, you have to use theirs but we wanted a band, so that was waved. Joe was totally accommodating to our needs. We wanted a family style meal which required more prep space than what was in their kitchen. He made sure our caterer had enough space for it. He was incredibly responsive with any questions I had and always made me feel like as long as I was happy, he was happy. Joe let us set up the space the day before the wedding, a huge help! On the day of the wedding, the bridal suite was a great place for the bridal party to hang out before the reception began! And when the guests started arriving the reception went very smoothly! I would definitely recommend Brookside Gardens, and any of Joe's spaces to anyone getting married!

Our wedding was booked through Heritage Event Spaces, specifically at the Heritage Hall location. Joe Dugdale and his wife were very helpful throughout the whole wedding process. He is super flexible and main goal is to make the bride "his girls" happy... that also includes the mothers (he should set up a side business for mother of the bride/groom counseling, Haha). I was able to go to the site multiple times to look at the hall and take measurements or whatever else I needed. They make everything super easy. Platinum Productions is the DJ company that is contracted with them... they are EXCELLENT and have a discounted rate at the Heritage Event Spaces. They have a contract with bar tending Co., PM Bar tending, which is nice having them already ready for you. You can chose your own catering which is a positive for me and my husband. We were not fans of venues who had specific catering companies to use because not all of the vendors were in our budget. Overall, I would recommend Heritage Event Spaces to any couple who are looking for a beautiful, flexible, and affordable venue to have your wedding with great customer service. Thanks Heritage Event Spaces!

My experience with Joe Dugale and Heritage Event Spaces was absolutely wonderful. This was not only one of the most affordable venues I found in the Kansas City area, but also the quality of service and attentiveness we received in making our wedding day perfect was top-notch. My wedding was at Armour Loft in North Kansas City, and it was a gorgeous venue and great location for our special day. Joe accommodated and executed every detail of our vision perfectly. I would highly, highly recommend!

We had our wedding reception at The Monarch Room. It was BEAUTIFUL. I was not too big into décor and the little details, but that's what was so great about this space, it had its own vibe as is, but could decorate to our liking. We were so fortunate to have an amazing sunset during our reception and our guests are still talking about the view.
I think there is a trend in the review that Joe and his wife are easy to work with and laid back. I could not agree more. I am not sure he ever says "no" to any of his brides. Highly recommend.

LOVE LOVE LOVED our wedding at the Monarch Room by Heritage Event Spaces!!! It was the best day of our lives. Joe was super responsive and helpful, also very flexible since we lived out of town. The price was amazing and the location was incredible! If you are looking to get married in downtown KC go with the Monarch Room, without a doubt.

My husband and I had our wedding reception at The Monarch Room about a month ago. The space was exactly what we wanted for our simple, yet elegant wedding of 170 guests. You could certainly hold more guests/tables than we had but we liked the large dance floor and open floor plan for people to mingle and it never got too loud or crowded in any given area, even around the bar! Having fewer tables also allowed us to leave the space in front of the, floor-to-ceiling, windows in the front of the room open for everyone's enjoyment and provided a beautiful view of Downtown KC, and backdrop for all our dances and speeches. The venue was conveniently located near the Power & Light district, as well as, to Crown Center where our hotel block was located. Joe was amazing to work with and allowed us to be creative. He was very flexibly and willing to meet us at the space at a moments notice. This was especially appreciated since we live in Dallas and were planning our wedding from afar. He was great a corresponding via email and was always available over the phone as well. The best thing about the space (besides the amazing windows and view) is that it's basically a blank canvas in a cool space, in a great location, for you to do as you please. Round tables, linens, and chairs are provided in the contract and there are many vendors that Joe works closely with that are extremely professional, comfortable, and know what they are doing in the space. Overall we were very happy with our choice to host our reception in this space and we would recommend it to anyone.

The Monarch Room:

I planned a wedding while living in a different state. We booked at the Monarch Room before I was able to see it in person but the pictures my family sent made me fall in love with the space. I was anxious about not being able to see it in person but with a prime location in the Crossroad District I knew I had to act fast and book our date. When I finally got to see the venue in person I was so pleased! I loved the rich wood in the space, the large floor to ceiling windows, and the smooth dance floor.

Joe, the owner, is fantastic to work with. He was very prompt answering all of my emails. Also he has established quite the network of quality vendors to partner with. Off his recommendation I found our church, caterer, DJ, and bartender. Located at 17th & McGee the block is a one stop shop for so many of your bridal needs. There is a church, salon, DJ and Screenland Theater with full service bar and restaurant. Parking downtown is very limited, but Joe has made sure there is plenty of parking available near the venue. We had the ceremony at New City Life Church and our guests only had to walk 150ft to attend the reception at The Monarch Room. The venue is also very close to the P&L District.

Now that the wedding is over, I look at pictures and I am still so pleased with our location. The Monarch Room photographed beautifully! We had several guests compliment us on the venue. The Bridal Prep Room was incredibly useful to store products and freshen up during the night for myself and my bridesmaids.

Thank you Joe, we loved The Monarch Room and it was a pleasure working with you!

We had our wedding at Heritage Hall in Liberty, MO. Joe helped make our day so special. He was so quick to get in touch with us, made everything we wanted happen, and has the best venues around!

Joe and his team were so professional and made our wedding absolutely perfect. Paul and I are forever thankful for having such a wonderful group of people to work with to make our wedding reception everything we ever wanted it to be. Joe himself was very flexible in working to accommodate certain needs and wants that we had. The evening of the reception, Joe's son helped out a great deal by moving tables, rearranging seating charts, and helping to keep things neat and organized. They are truly awesome people and I would recommend working with Heritage Event Spaces to anyone who wants to have a perfect wedding like we did!!!

We cannot thank Joe and Ann enough. Our day was amazing! Ann saw we were having trouble decorating so she jumped right in to help. Joe was very kind to let us take our decorations down the day after rather than that night since the space was not booked on Sunday. Also, the business partners (DJ and Bar service) we were contracted to work with shared the same professionalism and service. Couldn't have asked for a better team! Thank you!

Armour Loft was perfect for our event! Not only was it affordable, it was also beautiful. Joe did an amazing job and was available for all of my requests/questions/freak outs. I loved being able to get married in the theatre and then just going up the stairs for the reception. Also, the bridal room was unique and fun. I can't say enough good things about our experience! Our wedding day was perfection!

We love this venue! Our wedding was beautiful and the venue provided us with more than adequate space. It's already decorated a bit so we didn't have to do very much to make it beautiful and incorporate our wedding colors. Joe worked with me from the beginning and got me in touch with all the vendors that helped make our day spectacular. He also made sure that the tables were arranged perfectly to make our smaller event feel intimate. The bridal suite had plenty of room for my makeup artist to set up a table and chairs to work on the 9 faces and hair she did that day. All of the bridesmaids and some friends and family were able to comfortably spend some time in the bridal suite getting ready for pictures.
The parking accommodated our 150 guests with no confusion or problems. All in all, I am so glad I decided to have my wedding here.

I had my reception at the Monarch Room in downtown Kansas City. We were looking for a venue that we could bring in our own catering without choosing from a specific list, as well as our own alcohol. This company allowed for both.
The owners were very easy to work with and made the planning process much more enjoyable. They were very quick to respond to any text, email, or phone call and met with me on multiple occasions to let me look at the space and ask questions.
Their price is very reasonable and the space was gorgeous! It was the perfect mixture of urban and elegant!
I was so pleased with the space and would recommend any friend of mine to use Heritage Event Spaces.

Joe was so helpful in our wedding planning process! Whenever we needed to meet up at Heritage Hall (which was several times to get a gage on decor ideas!), he would meet us within that week. Recently, they added a soda gun machine which is super convenient when ordering alcohol; it was less to worry about and a very reasonable price. He also had a backdrop on the stage where the head tables sat that truly illuminated the room and make it much fuller! I have been to several weddings there before, and when we got engaged, we knew exactly where we wanted to have ours because of the high recommendations we had from friends.

Joe was so easy to work with. He was so attentive and very helpful. He made my wedding day great! The venue was perfect and I received so many compliments on it

The Monarch Room was our perfect wedding reception location! We loved the aesthetic of the space and the location. It looks especially beautiful at night with all the lights and windows overlooking the beautiful KC skyline. The space has the perfect amount of detail while still allowing you to add our own personal touches. The best part is, Joe is absolutely awesome to work with! He will make sure your event is perfect. He was so attentive throughout the entire process and was even there on our special day to 'check-in'. Our guests could not stop complimenting how beautiful and fun the venue was. And we loved it!!

I loved everything about the Monarch Room for our wedding reception. The location is great. The venue is beautiful. Joey was so helpful. He answered so many questions and put my mind at ease when I would get stressed. The other staff were just as great. We got so many compliments on the venue.

I had my wedding reception at Heritage Hall in Liberty, MO and I could not have been more pleased. We were limited with venues because of our large guest list and this fit perfectly, allowing 350 guests. Joe was super helpful and kind, as was his wife. The venue had everything we needed. We did have to use their dj/photobooth/bartending people, but they were all great and decently priced as well. I would recommend Heritage Hall to all of my friends.

Joe and his wife Anna were awesome to work with!!! Joe responded to every phone call, email and text very quickly!!! It was a wonderful place to hold the wedding/reception! I would recommend this to anyone who would like to have character to their venue!!
