One of my favorite things about Kansas City is the amazing wedding industry!! The people in this town could not be more passionate about the work they do, and the couples they have the joy of serving. They constantly inspire me by how hard they work, their creativity, and their talent. Showing up to a wedding where I get to work alongside my friends makes my dream job even better!

I always tell friends who are getting married to pick people over products. Narrow down your top choices to those with the best products, but make your final decision based on the person / team you want to work with. When planning a wedding it can be tough to find the right vendors, and know they will take care of you. The businesses I’ve included here are my recommendations; they are people I trust. I’ve made this list solely from personal experience because I want you, whoever you may be, to have the best KC has to offer!
