Loose Mansion Reviews

Our experience working with Abbey, Loren, and the rest of the Loose Mansion team for our New Year's Eve wedding was wonderful--and we, and our guests, had so much fun at our wedding! We both have busy jobs and travel often for work, which made fitting wedding planning in a challenge at times. The Loose Mansion team kept us on track and by the day before our wedding we were sort of surprised that there really wasn't anything else to do--it was all taken care of.  On our wedding day, the staff ensured everything ran smoothly from beginning to end. Our guests were impressed by the venue, enjoyed taking photos with the beautiful holiday decorations, and had an amazing time overall. Thanks Loose Mansion, for making our night so special and so stress-free!

Everything about our Loose experience was first class. It was easy to work with Abbey. It was obvious from the beginning that all they wanted to do was ensure our party was a success and they knew how to deliver that.

Other than the beautiful venue and wonderful food I want to mention one example of how they just ‘took care of us’, during the cocktail hour before the rehearsal dinner. In our planning there was detailed discussions on the hors d’oeuvres selection and that we would have servers walking around the room. I was impressed at how MANY servers were working the room. I have been to numerous country club functions where it was difficult to find any staff, not the case here. The whole evening was well staffed from entry to exit. Would highly recommend the Loose Mansion as a party venue.

My husband and I had a great time planning our event, thanks to the Loose Mansion team. They know events inside and out, they recommended vendors that were awesome, and the food and beverage is terrific. And the location is gorgeous- we had the main floor for 100 people, and it was an amazing time. The staff took care of us on the day and made sure everything went well.

We held our company holiday party at Loose Mansion and reserved the 3rd Level Ballroom. The staff made the event simple to plan and were so friendly throughout the whole process. The mansion looked beautiful, especially with the holiday decor! The fireplace upstairs was perfect for photos and the whole feel was welcoming. Our group of 80 had a great time celebrating the holidays with their in-house hors d'oeuvres and bar. We were able to enjoy their holiday music and then play our own playlist. At the same time, they were also hosting a wedding on the main level and we could not tell there was another party going on. I just got a glimpse of the bride and groom taking stunning photos on the stairs as I was setting up desserts! There's designated parking for your party with security at the door and assistance navigating the mansion is provided. 10/10 recommend touring this space for any upcoming event you're planning!

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Loose Mansion and received MANY compliments following our big day. The ambiance, staff, food, and overall experience was amazing! Their team of coordinators ensured we were prepared for our big day and all the details were handled so we didn’t have to worry. Cannot recommend this venue or team enough !

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Loose Mansion. The staff took care of us all day long, planned everything down to the minute and the on site catering was so delicious. Would recommend to anyone.

My daughter and son in law were married on December 8th. Thanks to the Loose Mansion it was a beautiful, smooth and perfect wedding. Our coordinator, Chris Fabarez was professional, friendly and fantastic to work with. The Loose Mansion was worth every penny. This is THE place to have a wedding.

This was the perfect venue, we saved so much stress and money by going the "all-inclusive" route. The actual space was breathtakingly beautiful and fit my wedding's theme so well (Christmas theme)! The food was delicious and our coordinator Chris was a godsend. 10/10 would recommend!!!

A big factor for us in choosing Loose Mansion was having an event space that aesthetically stood out on its own, while also having an in-house team that could handle the details in a way that took time, pressure, and stress off of us. Loose Mansion was near-perfect on these fronts. We did not hire a wedding planner nor day-of-coordinator in large because the staff at Loose Mansion took on those responsibilities and did so in a professional, competent manner. Several guests have told us they were impressed with the beauty of Loose Mansion as well as with how kind and courteous the staff was during the event. Given all of the in-house amenities Loose Mansion provides coupled with the excellent service and support provided by their team, we think this venue is high up on the value list compared to other venues we reached out to earlier in the wedding planning process. In sum, we were very happy with our experience and would definitely recommend Loose Mansion to family and friends!

Loose Mansion was our dream wedding venue! We wanted the planning process and wedding day to be as low stress as possible and Abbey and Chris made every step easy. They are truly professional event coordinators and seemed to predict our questions and always had answers waiting in our inbox within an hour or two. All our other vendors (photographer, videographer, florist, officiant, etc.) commented on how helpful it was to have Chris reach out to confirm arrival times the week of the wedding. The morning of the wedding, Chris was at the venue with a smile on her face and made sure everyone knew where they needed to be and when. We did not have to worry about anything and were able to enjoy the day with family and friends.

The venue itself is beautiful! We rented the entire mansion and were able to use the whole space for our wedding. Our guests loved being able to move throughout the mansion all night. I would 1000% recommend Loose Mansion for your wedding!

Great experience at the wedding reception! The staff were very helpful from the 1st day of the planning to the day of the event. Our guests were very impressed with the service and location! Thank you so much to the staff at the Loose Mansion!!

We couldn’t have been more pleased with Loose Mansion and their staff. Abby was wonderful to work with all the way through. She was kind, responsive, helpful, flexible and 100% about walking alongside Adrienne, making her wedding the most special day ever. Of course the venue is gorgeous and then it was made even more so with the flowers that our florist was allowed to bring in. The food was delicious (more red sauce on the cannelloni, please) and plentiful. From initial planning to clean up, the Loose staff was fabulous and we wouldn’t hesitate to give them the highest rating possible!

TL;DR - If you're planning a wedding, a small corporate event, a family reunion, a class reunion, or any other kind of event that requires catering, coordination, and other resources, give Loose Mansion a call. You won't regret it.

Honestly, Loose Mansion is by far the most underrated small event space and venue in the entire metro area, especially for weddings. My wife and I recently held our wedding there, and after having done wedding photography for 11 years, it was honestly one of the most seamless, effortless weddings I've ever been involved with in any capacity.

First off, the venue itself is gorgeous and well-kept. It practically decorates itself, and if you're any fan of the series Downton Abbey, this building will appeal to your aesthetic (if Kansas City had a version of The Breakers mansion built by the Vanderbilts in Rhode Island, it would be Loose Mansion). It's evocative of a bygone era, but has all the modern appointments one could need for any event.

Second, the venue can provide you with nearly everything you'd ever need to put on a wedding: food, booze, photos, sound/media/DJ equipment, staff, coordination, all of it. While we only ended up utilizing their in-house catering options, being able to rely on the staff for setup, tear-down, and coordination across the board was invaluable. The food was **incredible** across the entire menu, and I highly recommend using it because you'll get more for your money with that option than you will with any other caterer. One thing that stuck out to me about the building itself was the vast number of bathrooms it has (literally over a dozen of them across several floors).

Third, the venue itself is in an area that's quite conveniently located (close to Westport, the Plaza, and even downtown), which made getting places around the wedding weekend much, much easier for everyone involved. Parking was not an issue at all, as their lot was large enough to accommodate everyone with space leftover for more if we needed it.

Finally, above all, the expenditure for all of this was well worth it in the end. We paid far less to have more organization and a better overall experience than we probably would've received at any other venue, and with other vendors for the various wedding aspects combined.

And this was all in the midst of a pandemic, with only 4 months of planning.

My daughter & her husband had planned to have their wedding reception at Loose Mansion in May of '20. That date was postponed not once but two times due to the pandemic. However, Loose Mansion was incredibly understanding & cooperative to work with regarding these changes. The reception in Sept of '21 was a great success! All details were handled by Loose Mansion (both Abby & Abbey were fantastic event planners!) seamlessly. The food (appetizers & dinner) was delicious, the bar was free-flowing and the wait staff was top notch! As mother of the bride, it was such a relief to me that this venue was all inclusive. The staff handled all of the decor & clean up, thereby allowing me to enjoy the day. The table decor available was so lovely that the need to purchase additional flowers for the tables was eliminated. Our guests loved it .... my daughter & her husband loved it ... and so did I. I enthusiastically endorse Loose Mansion!

Loose Mansion helped us plan everything, and they were professional and flexible. It meant the world to us, especially during these times. We had a perfect, stress-free day, largely in part to their phenomenal staff. The in-house baker and photographer are amazing people! (Everyone there is.) They responded to our questions quickly, and helped out so much. I cannot thank them enough for the perfect memories we will hold onto forever.

Loose Mansion is everything we could've wanted in a wedding venue. It brings elegance that is truly timeless, yet has a warm charm that keeps it from being too traditional and stuffy. The staff is amazingly responsive and excellent at anticipating your needs, keeping track of all the important details, and keeping your big day on schedule. Since the venue also functions as the coordinator, caterer, has their own stock of rental chairs/tables/linens, and an entire room of decor for you to peruse and select from, it cuts down on the total number of vendors you need, which means fewer lines of communication to keep track of, and overall less stress. The food is delicious and there is a large selection of dishes to select from. The dressing room spaces are perfectly functional with a formal feeling, yet comfortable enough to try to relax the nerves. There is also a recently remodeled 5bd/2ba carriage house on the property that is a perfect place for family or the bridal party to stay.
Sorry for no photos- the website wouldn't load them. Trust they are beautiful :)

Everyone at Loose Mansion is fabulous to work with. They provide excellent guidance throughout the planning process. All details are managed so that you can enjoy your special day. Additionally, the venue is absolutely amazing with all of its historical features. Loose Mansion is truly a hidden treasure!!!

First, please know I rarely write reviews--but this venue deserves the 5 stars plus. From the moment we toured the venue, to the planning meetings, rehearsal, and especially the day of the event-we not only were treated as if we were the only couple getting married there, but as if we were all that mattered. We initially thought we'd hire a wedding coordinator to assist...but early on it was apparent that with the LM staff that was not needed. They were easy to communicate with, share our wishes, provide excellent ideas, and truly made it a day we'll never forget. Our guests gushed about how fantastic the wedding was, and we completely agree. The food was amazing, and the choices endless, and being able to bring in our own alcohol was not only a cost savings, but allowed us to put our own special touch to the event.
Although Natalie was our main contact-and she was by far the easiest and best vendor that I worked with throughout the wedding planning process-Brad, Abby & Barbara (as well as the extended staff the day of the wedding) were all impeccable in their customer service.
If you are looking for a venue to be memorable, fun, and different-look no further. I highly recommend taking advantage of the carriage house, the ladies used this to get ready in & we stayed there with some of our guests that evening, and it couldn't have been more convenient.
Hands down-best decision outside of saying "I do" that we did for our wedding memories.

Absolutely wonderful venue! The staff is amazing and took so much stress off of me during the whole planning process. The food is delicious, and the building is gorgeous. I've gotten so many compliments on the meal, the staff, and how beautiful everything was. I would choose Loose Mansion all over again, one of the best choices I made!!!

An amazing venue with an amazing staff. Almost everything you will need for your wedding, they do in house. Which means that you don't have to worry about finding someone and arranging to get it there. My wife's anxiety was almost zero because we were working with Loose Mansion staff! Super professional and good at what they do!!

Choosing Loose Mansion for my wedding was one of the best decisions I made in the wedding planning process. The staff, especially our day of coordinators Chris and Jess were absolutely phenomenal and went above and beyond in so many ways I'm still learning about them from guests and family members 3 weeks after the wedding. Venue- stunning, food-delicious, staff- amazing. Everything was just so perfect for our day and it was truly because of Loose Mansion.

We had a great experience with Loose Mansion! We were so impressed at the initial meeting and tour that we actually didn't look at any other venues before committing. The comprehensive nature of the planning, decor, food, and bar made the process very easy. Abbey, Chris, and Karen are organized and calm under pressure. They were so attentive on the wedding day and even helped my fiance surprise me with a gift. We have absolutely no regrets about our wedding day and the Loose Mansion crew helped us create a perfect experience.

We looked at several Kansas City venues for our wedding and were blown away by the beauty of the facility and professionalism of the staff at Loose Mansion. Everyone commented on the amazing venue. It was perfect for our fairly large wedding. Karen and her staff somehow managed to pull off a wedding, reception, and dance without a hitch. We felt like we were in good hands the whole time. We're very happy we chose Loose Mansion for our special day.

This venue was at the top of our list for our wedding, and it still found a way to exceed our expectations. The mansion is beautiful, and the Loose Mansion team (shoutout Chris and Abbey) showed tremendous attention to detail in making sure that the day went smoothly. 10 out of 10, highly recommend Loose Mansion!
