The ceremony and reception are inside. However, the cocktail hour will be outside. Please come prepared depending on Kansas City weather with a coat, hat and/or gloves. Whatever you need to feel comfortable as the reception will still be setting up inside and will not be ready for guests until reception time. You will be able to access the bathrooms during cocktail hour. There are not outdoor heaters.
There is a break between the ceremony and cocktail hour. The ceremony should be over by 2:00pm and the cocktail hour starts at 5:00pm. This would be the perfect time to check out our "things to do in Kansas City" tab or stop by your hotel/home to freshen up. Doors will open for the cocktail hour promptly at 5:00pm. The bride and groom will be arriving at 5:30pm.
We will be offering complimentary wine and beer along with various pop, iced tea, water and Shirley Temples. Liquor will not be offered during the cocktail hour or reception.
