Our family was looking for an event space for a wedding reception that could easily be used for the ceremony as well. We visited several locations in the Kansas City metro area, but the last venue we visited was Crestview Dairy Events. They met and exceeded our wishlist for my daughter's wedding. We would need an event space that could accommodate 200+ guests where we would have ample parking for local guests and great nearby accommodations for a number of guests who would be traveling in from across the country. We also wanted to host the ceremony and reception at the same location. My greatest concern with the event space was that it was outdoors. I'm from Kansas City and the weather here can surprise you and ruin your day. Crestview has that covered, literally with options to move it into covered space that will accommodate you guests.There are numerous lodging options within a few minutes' drive from the Crestview venue. This is especially convenient for guests who are coming in from out of town and might not be familiar with the area. The ease of accommodation was a significant factor in our decision, as we didn't want our guests to undergo the hassle of long drives after the ceremony and reception. Crestview was completely flexible when it came to catering. They were very open to allowing us to bring in our own caterers, which was essential for us. We wanted the wedding meal to be a true reflection of the bride and groom's tastes and preferences.Another aspect we highly appreciated was the kid-friendly environment. There was plenty of space for the kids to run around and play and be a part of the festivities. The dance floor, an essential part of our celebration, was spacious, which meant that guests had ample room to dance the night away, making it a memorable night for all. The acoustic properties of the space were also impressive, ensuring that the music was neither too loud nor too soft.Parking was abundant and well-organized. We didn't have to worry about guests having to walk far distances, and there was no issue with congestion when arriving or leaving the venue. Also, after parking, hay-rides were available to transport guests who chose not to walk to the location of the ceremony.Crestview also has a beautiful onsite cottage where the bride and her bridesmaids could comfortably prepare and relax without the stress off traveling on the day of the wedding. This was not just convenient, but it also provided a serene and private space for them.In conclusion, Lolo, the events manager, was fantastic and a lovely person to work with. Her focus was solely to make sure my daughter's dream came true. Crestview Events Space in Kansas City is a hidden gem. The combination of its beautiful outdoor setting, its flexibility to cater to personal preferences, and its thoughtful amenities make it a perfect venue for memorable events. I wholeheartedly recommend it for anyone looking to host an unforgettable wedding or any other event.
