** it might help to know how many guests you plan on having. If it's around 100, you will have a better chance at finding a place.

I'm getting married in Sept too, the 29th. I am getting married at Peeper Ranch in Lenexa, it's $1000 for the whole day, and rehearsal the night before (not food though). You DO need to rent tables and chairs though so it might not be in your budget. You bring in a caterer.

Others that might work

Parkway West in Overland Park KS
Cellar 222 in KCMO (i think it's a little more than 1000 but really pretty!)
Lake Paradise Resort in Lone Jack Mo
Shawnee Town in ... Shawnee KS lol


I suggest getting a KC Weddings magazine. There are TONS of listings and most of them say "varies" on their price so you would need to look them up online or call. They are 3.95 or go to a HyVee and they normally give them away at the bakery and floral dept. (at least mine does, I am a cake designer at one)

Try Olde Mill Emporium in Parkville. That's where we are having ours. They do catering, but are fine with outside caterers, for a little bit more (but only like $100 or something). http://www.oldemillcatering.com/Photos.html

ooo oo ooo! I have been looking to rec our wedding venue!  We got married at the Stanley Event Space in Lee's Summit, MO.  It was perfect and would fit your budget.  Please contact Jennifer, one of the owners, she is fabulous!  Tell her that Ashley and Kris referred you (no prize to us for it, but I want them to know we are referring peeps!)  I cannot tell you how much we loved this venue and especially the people!  Good luck!

I just booked Olde Mill Catering in Parkville, Mo.  It's super cute and has a rustic vibe to it.  The venue itself is $1750 and include a 5 hour even window, tables, chairs, linens, dishes, flatware, cups for the bar and water glasses.  Their food isn't the cheapest but it's not too horribly bad.  The fee for having an outside caterer is $800.

After reading reviews online for it I wasn't even going to give it a second look but the owner definitely helped to ease my nerves.  The old reviews were written before the current owner took it over.
