Brandon W. Married on 10/01/2021The best all-inclusive wedding venue in Kansas City
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.-

Stephanie A. Married on 10/27/2021Loose Mansion Can't Be Beat
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!

Shannon T. Married on 09/30/2021Loose Mansion was perfect and flexible
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. -

Joyce C. Married on 09/24/2021Outstanding success in working with Loose Mansion!
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! -

Mary B. Married on 09/03/2021We highly recommend Loose Mansion!
Loose Mansion was the only wedding venue my husband and I toured because we knew that was the only place we wanted to get married from the second we stepped in the door. The ambiance is unmatched and the natural decor (especially the fireplaces, mahogany grand staircase, and chandeliers) is absolutely stunning. The Loose Mansion staff does an outstanding job of making you feel like your event is the only one they are coordinating, although we all know that’s not the case. It didn’t matter if I was communicating with Abby, Abbey, Barb, or Karen - every response I received was prompt, professional, and overly accommodating. We reached out to Loose Mansion within weeks of our wedding (after we already had a meeting to finalize details) with concerns about the surge in COVID-19 cases in the Kansas City area. They immediately responded with alternative layout suggestions to consider to increase social distancing among guests and were more than willing to make these changes for us in such a short time period. The wedding planning experience was made SO easy thanks to the Loose Mansion staff. Abby was our main point of contact throughout the process and we can not say enough about her caring, thorough, and personable approach to coordinating our event. Our wedding day was everything we had hoped for and so much more! Guests raved about the Oscar-style layout, the amazing hor d'oeuvres (meatballs, flatbreads, spin-art mac & cheese bite), entrees (salmon, beef tenderloin, boursin stuffed chicken breast, vegetable wellington), desserts (cheesecake, chocolate indulgence), and frozen margaritas. Finding a wedding venue that is truly “all in” with every aspect (including planning, decor, and catering) is very rare, but that is exactly what you get with Loose Mansion. We can not emphasize enough our positive and seamless experience with everyone at Loose Mansion and could not have envisioned a more perfect place to host such a special event! -

Martha W. Married on 08/28/2021100% Perfection
The reception was 100% perfection. The mansion was gorgeous and every little detail was seen to. I simply can’t imagine a more wonderful place for Beckie and Chris to have celebrated their marriage. From the moment we booked Loose, you and your staff were unfailingly responsive, respectful, patient and kind. Every request was met with “sure, we can make that work.” I’ll never forget how you stayed with us during Covid and our need to reschedule. I heard horror stories about other vendors, but you were simply amazing. I will be forever grateful. I also wanted you to know how wonderful the vendors are that you recommended. Every single one of them stayed with us and did not charge us a single extra penny for postponing. They reflected the leadership tone you set, also being unfailing responsive and helpful. I can only imagine how tremendously difficult these last 18 months have been for you. But you never let it show to us. You had our backs every step of the way and it gave us so much confidence that we could still have a special celebration, even in the midst of Covid. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I can't recommend Loose more highly. For those who are wondering about an "all in" vendor, I found this greatly simplified the planning and was probably less expensive than going with separate vendors. Researching, hiring and especially coordinating vendors took the most time in our planning. Having one stop shopping with Loose was wonderful. The mansion itself is also gorgeous with marble, a gorgeous staircase and Tiffany chandeliers. In addition, we didn't spend any money on flowers or decorations because Loose has an entire huge room filled with decorations to choose from. Both Abbys and Barabara were wonderful to work with. We had to postpone the wedding and then faced a big Covid surge right before the re-scheduled event. They kept us up to date on all developments and helped ensure we had an unforgettable event. This place is a gem! Finally, my daughter, her finance and her finance's family all lived in New York. Loose has many ways to communicate across the miles and their inability to be physically present for most of the planning did not create any issues -

Debbie J. Married on 06/09/2021Loose Mansion is the perfect venue
Not only is Loose Mansion beautiful, the entire staff was an absolute dream to work with! They responded promptly to all of our questions and had a wonderful plan in place due to the COVID restrictions. It made the whole experience less stressful as they handled everything! We could not have asked for a more perfect day. -

Anna D. Married on 05/23/2021
The Wedding of My Dreams
I truly had a vision for my wedding. I am an older bride and I wanted a venue that was sophisticated, with lots of character, and everything I needed in house. Loose Mansion gave me all that and so much more!
Barbara, Abbey, Abby, and Karen are a fantastic team and they all work together to make your wedding day perfect! They handled every little detail of my wedding and made the planning so easy and the whole process absolutely stress-free. All the staff that I interacted with were kind, professional, and meticulous. I was truly treated like a queen on my wedding day with everyone looking after me and making sure everything went perfect.
I had a very intimate wedding due to Covid. Loose Mansion treated my little wedding of 40 like it was the biggest and only event they were coordinating, which of course was not the case at all. But they really make their brides feel like they matter and that their event is the most important one.
The venue itself is resplendent. The most beautiful place I have ever seen! All the details and character... There is not a bad place in the whole mansion to have a picture taken. It is gorgeous. All the food was excellent, with lots of menu items to choose from. The bar packages are easily customized and very generous. They handle all the decorations, put up and take down... You do not have to worry about a thing.
I would absolutely highly recommend Loose Mansion to any bride. You will not regret it. They helped make my wedding day the best day of my life.-

The Loose Mansion is not only beautiful the team is truly amazing.
The Loose Mansion is not only beautiful the team is truly amazing. After postponing our wedding several times due to COVID we decided to have a small ceremony with just our closest family. For ease of travel for my new in-laws we chose Kansas City, a place neither of us had been to, nor would we get to visit before the ceremony. The team at LM helped me plan our ceremony and dinner for 15 from start to finish, including all the details of decor, custom menu, music, etc. They also provided a list of vendors they had worked with in the past (all of which reassured me LM was beautiful since I hadn't seen the place in person yet) and I was able to create all our florals, cake, transportation, photography, hair, and makeup from New York, which the team then helped coordinate on the day of. I really can't recommend the Loose Mansion enough! -

Michelle Married on 06/08/2019All-inclusive

Taylor Married on 03/09/2019Would book again without hesitation
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 :) -

Kelli O. Married on 10/27/2018Absolutely Amazing!!!
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!!! -
Yuki Married on 09/02/2018The Loose Mansion is amazing both for their beautiful venue and perfect service. I cannot spot a single negative thing about their hospitality. I worked in hospitality industry for long and I have never been so satisfied with my experience before. Every single one of the staff is friendly and professional, and they would make sure everything is well organized so I never had to worry or feel stressed about anything. My now-husband and I had a last-minute trouble with guest count but they were so kind and quick to respond to us and took care of everything perfectly. I honestly had the best experience and am so happy I chose them as our wedding venue. I am a foodie myself and I just want to say I loved all their food too, from appetizers to plated dinner. After the wedding, I had so many of our guests come up and comment on how wonderful the place is in terms of both their service and the Mansion's beautiful outlook. If you are looking for a beautiful, classic wedding at a historic Mansion with amazing staff to work with, the Loose Mansion is definitely the one.

Cory Married on 06/09/2018Loose Mansion was amazing to work with! I didn't have to stress out about my wedding at all. They take care of all the 'day of' things and make sure the ceremony and reception flow together seamlessly. The food and drinks were amazing, no one left hungry or thirsty. We were getting compliments all night from our guests about how good the food was, the beautiful venue and the perfectly orchestrated evening. I have been told our wedding was elegant but at the same time relaxed, which makes me happy knowing our guests enjoyed themselves. Also, because the mansion was so beautiful on its own we really didn't need to purchase decorations or tons of floral. My wedding was absolutely perfect and Loose Mansion was a big part of that. I HIGHLY recommend them!

Kaylyn Married on 04/14/2018Beautiful venue, super helpful staff, and incredible food. Highly recommended for anyone who doesn’t want to spend the weeks leading up to their wedding putting together centerpieces and buying decorations. It’s all included in the cost here and they have a TON to choose from, so it still feels personal. The catering menu is huge too, so it shouldn’t be hard to find food you like.
