Community Courtyard 

5.0

Plattsburg, MO
  • Up to 350 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $100

As a non-profit organization, Community Courtyard is dedicated to providing over 10,000 square feet of facility space at below market rates. The graceful brick arches of its architectural design has made it a choice location for families, businesses, and schools to host weddings, events, and celebrations. From elegant dinner affairs to burlap and boots, the Community Courtyard lends its self to any type of wedding theme you and your guests will remember for a lifetime.

With a short engagement and a tight budget, we were having a hard time finding a venue. On a whim, I randomly found Community Courtyard. Little did I know it has been a town staple in Plattsburg, MO for 20 years as an event space. The building itself is very historical, dating back to the 1800's. This building is a non-profit and runs as a food bank throughout the week, so you know your money is going to a good cause. They came at very reasonable price (about 70% lower than most places we looked at). Not only that but we got a lot of bang for our buck. They had decor we could use, a sound system, a cute bridal suite, they tore everything down for us for a small fee, and were super flexible with scheduling. It also holds a lot of guests and has ample kitchen space on both floors. I would recommend this venue to anyone!

Overnight stays in our onsite guest suites or the stunning honeymoon tower offer panoramic views of the property and allow you and a number of your guests to retreat to cozy accommodations post celebration.

White Iron Ridge Venue was the perfect location for our special day. The communication with the venue staff leading up to our wedding was very quick and efficient, which we greatly appreciated during the hectic planning process. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, spacious, and magnificent - the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception. On the day-of, the staff worked diligently and carefully to flip the room from the ceremony set up to the reception decor in a very short period of time. All of the vendors were polite, professional, and eager to assist us in any way possible. We could not have asked for a better venue or team to host our wedding - everything was handled smoothly and the gorgeous mountain venue provided the ideal atmosphere to celebrate our marriage with friends and family.

I assisted as a party decorator for an event at this location and the place could not have been more perfect. We worked very smooth with the owner and had enough time to complete all the setup. We were very pleased with the result and enjoyed setting up an event at the place.

Oliver Building 

4.8

Kansas City, MO
  • Up to 600 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor

The Oliver Building Event Space encompasses 3 floors of a lovingly restored 1880s building in Kansas City's Historic West bottoms. With over 20,000 sqft the Oliver is perfect for everything from an intimate, romantic wedding, a throwdown party or corporate trade shows and seminars. Make history at your next event at the historic Oliver.

We had such an amazing wedding at The Oliver Building. Having the venue for the whole weekend made our weekend run so smoothly. We had our rehearsal Friday night, and brought everything over so we didn’t need to deal with it Saturday. Then got ready in the amazing upstairs suites Saturday morning. We had a great time, and Caitlin was so easy to work with! The only reason I took a star off is that we had some issues with the bar. We made it clear from the start that we wanted to prioritize the bar, and didn’t want long lines. Because of that, they said we would have 3 bartenders, and would batch some of our signature cocktails. Unfortunately, we only had two bartenders, despite giving tips for 3, and there were no cocktails batched. We did have a pretty long line at our bar most of the night because of this. All in all, it was an amazing venue for our wedding!!
