Loose Mansion

From start to finish, the staff at Loose Mansion made our wedding planning and the actual event enjoyable. They provided plenty of options and guidance, answered all of our questions, and there were willing to work with all of our wishes.

Our guests enjoyed the venue and were very interested in the mansion and its history. They continue to praise the food. It was a very enjoyable evening. The evening of the wedding, they attended to every detail, allowing me to totally enjoy the event.

Loose Mansion was recommended to us by a co-worker of my daughter.
From the first contact we made with Loose Mansion, I knew this was
a venue we wanted to seriously consider. The entire staff is responsive, attentive, respectful, professional and strives to make sure it is just the way you want it. Our guests were awed by the entire facility and raved about the quality and presentation of the food.
The staff knows what needs to be done to make the wedding day special and unique to the bride and groom. There is no need for a wedding planner-Loose Mansion is the total package! The facility is elegant and beautiful.

We had a wonderful experience at Loose Mansion. We had a destination wedding and had an event later at the Mansion to celebrate with our family and friends. It was very important to me that we had a very "cocktail type party" and nothing that was too "weddingish". The staff at the mansion went above and beyond to see my vision and accomplish what I wanted from the event. It was wonderful. The food was amazing and I was so pleased with the end result! It was completely stress free as they handled everything for us.

As Barbara (owner), her entire wonderful staff and the BEAUTIFUL facility all exceeded our wildest expectations in every way possible; I really don't know where to start.

When my fiancée (now wife) and I began our search for a reception venue, we really had one goal in mind...to find a place that was very elegant, without feeling too stuffy which could inhibit our very fun group of friends from having a great time. I have to say that our goal was accomplished. To a person, the feedback was that our reception was one of the best they had ever been to (keep in mind that the median age was probably 35 - so these were no novices!)

We found everything we were looking for in the Loose Mansion. We reserved the entire mansion which included a very quaint "bistro room" downstairs, the extremely elegant main floor, and the beautiful and spacious ballroom upstairs for dancing (all three levels had bars)! Additionally, there was outside seating on the terrace for those looking to enjoy the weather or have a celebratory cigar!

I was initially concerned that having three floors open could potentially keep the reception fragmented, however, it actually worked out better than I could have imagined. The guests (roughly 265) really enjoyed mingling and exploring the different rooms the mansion had to offer. Once the dancing started upstairs in the ballroom, most people generally stayed up there and enjoyed themselves immensely! The staff did an amazing job of directing the flow and it made for a truly enjoyable evening.

I cannot stress enough how their great staff made the whole process of planning the reception so easy for us. They take care of every last little detail and leave no stone unturned. From the food choices to the table settings, all the way down the cake topper, they ensure you have everything covered.

The food...one word, AMAZING. They have a terrific in-house chef that provides numerous delicious choices - for all budgets - that you get to try at one of their fun and elegant tasting events. Regarding the bar, they allow you to bring your own liquor...what more is there to say about that! This alone saved us thousands!

In summation, I am generally not one to write reviews. I expect to get what I pay for and I move on. However, when something so far exceeds my expectations to the point that the Loose Mansion did, I felt compelled to share my experience with the hope that this review will help you make one of the best decisions of your life. After all, it is your wedding!

Amazing!! I got married at Loose Mansion in September 2011, and I could not recommend it more highly. It is such an elegant, beautiful space, and the staff works so hard and thinks of absolutely everything. We had a large wedding reception (225 people, plated dinner) and rented out the entire mansion (all four floors!), and the set-up was perfect. We had a children’s buffet on the bottom level and seating for adults on the main level and third floor ballroom (the ballroom is SO gorgeous) – I was initially skeptical about having people eat dinner on two different floors, but I couldn’t believe how well it worked out. Everyone loved milling around the mansion and exploring the different nooks and crannies – I actually think having the multiple levels made people stick around longer and have more fun, because there was more to see and do than in your typical ballroom.

I was also extremely happy with Loose Mansion price-wise – you can save a ton of money by bringing in your own alcohol (we honestly ended up spending about ¼ what I originally budgeted for alcohol, and that’s with a full open bar for 200 adults), and I was really impressed with how many reasonably priced options they have (and how delicious they are. And the portions! Huge). Speaking of, the food was AMAZING. We did a duo plate with salmon and pork loin, and I have heard nothing but rave reviews from my guests (though I can’t comment myself – how is it that brides never get around to eating at their own wedding??).

The service all night long was outstanding, from the butlered hors d’oeurves to the wine service at the dinner tables to the actual bartending as the night wore on. Another thing that amazed me – my champagne hand was never empty all night long, even though I never made a trip to the bar. Someone was always there checking up on me and making sure everything was going smoothly (though not in an annoying or over-the-top way). Loose Mansion really knows how to treat brides!

I could go on forever about how wonderful Loose Mansion is, but I think you get the idea. I ESPECIALLY recommend this venue for: (1) large wedding parties when you rent out the whole mansion, and (2) out-of-town brides who want to leave a lot of the details and worrying to someone else who will do an awesome job. And anyone else, really. I can’t wait to go to another wedding/event here! It is such a special and unique place.

If there were 6 stars available - Loose Mansion would have received them!

First off - I am NOT a bride. I am a "mother of the bride". One that thought that this venue was absolutely a CRAZY place to hold such a big reception. When I realized that we couldn't hold the wedding reception (225 people) on one floor - I was very apprehensive about using Loose Mansion. BOY - am I so glad that I bit my tongue and let my daughter make the decision!!

I mean, really - how many wedding receptions have you been to that are held on MULTIPLE floors? Throw in butler passed hors d'oeuvres, a plated dinner, dancing reception, full bar, and a child care area - and it only made sense that a multi level venue just "didn't fit the need". Ha ha ha --- so wrong. Loose Mansion met...and exceeded...every aspect that I had for the reception.

I am absolutely amazed at the feedback that I've received from our guests at the reception. One of the most frequent comments - - how professional, yet unobtrusive, the staff was. Drinks were miraculously refilled; pre-dinner and post-dining hors d'oeuvres right there when you turned your shoulder; and best yet, staff that seemed to be happy to "participate" in the wedding celebration instead of "serving" the event. These people seemed to really enjoy working at 11:00 at night!!

And I didn't even mention the Carriage House! Oh my goodness! What a wonderful "benefit" to have the Mansion staff "deliver" all of the wedding gifts directly to our room while we were still entertaining and enjoying the evening!! Able to walk to our room, sleep in the next morning - wait until the bride/groom was ready to meet us there to transfer the gifts to them. SO, so very convenient - and, oh, did I mention, great accommodations?!? Could very well see how the wedding couple would reserve the Carriage House for themselves! (In our case - we reserved the room before our daughter/son-in-law had "decided" on a wedding night location! Lucky for us!!)

I'm not one to glamorize things - - I tend to have a black and white view on things and call 'em like I see 'em. I've tried to come up with some negative things and/or constructive criticism about Loose Mansion, just so this review would seem legit! Other than the rain that day - I just can't come up with ONE thing that could have been changed for the better.

To Barb and her staff at the Mansion - to this day, I still can not believe that you are as good as you are. Would welcome the opportunity to be a reference for ANY event that may be contemplating using your facilities. And if you want to keep us on your semi-annual tasting event - we'd continue to come just for the fantastic cuisine.

I can't say enough positive things about our experience with my daughter's wedding reception at The Loose Mansion this summer! Not only is the Mansion a beautiful venue for a wedding reception, but the best part was working with Barb and her staff! They made our wedding experience so much more enjoyable! They took care of all the small details.....down to a driver to get the bride and groom to their hotel. They have 2 rooms full of beautiful decorations for the tables and the mantels. We took advantage of their creative abilities and saved money by using their decorations and not having to buy flower arrangements. Everyone commented on how beautiful the tables and mantels looked! The other wonderful savings area was with the alcohol. They allow you to bring in your own......we have a large Irish and Italian family...... big savings!

The best part about having an event at The Loose Mansion is really the fact that they are like wedding planners. They take care of all the small details. From lists of great venders to contact, to the amazing food, to the decorations, to contacting everyone the week before the wedding. It was a HUGE load off of my shoulders to know that they were taking care of everything that had to do with the reception. We just had to show up and enjoy! And that we did! We can't thank Barb and her wonderful staff enough! They were all amazing to work with!!

I held my wedding ceremony and reception at Loose Mansion, everything was perfect! The food was amazing,as well as the staff, they are experts at what they do. The whole setting was beautiful and comfortable. I felt like I was home. Many of my guests complimented the venue and said it was the best wedding they have ever been to. It was truly wonderful. I also referred a friend to Loose Mansion, and she is getting married there in September 2012.

A unique, breathtaking, gorgeous venue, outfitted by a flexible, courteous, and professional staff, whose sole concern is customizing your event to otherwise unconsidered levels of 'Cinderella ball' type beauty all gift wrapped in a worry free turn key package of bliss! The food is top-notch, and facility top-shelf...the only mistake a person could make is NOT choosing Loose Mansion. This venue took care of our every wish and desire...smiling while doing so!...to say 'we LOVED it' is an understatement. They are simply and unequivocally the BEST!!!

We had our wedding reception at Loose Mansion in July 2011 and had a wonderful experience. The staff was extremely organized and our coordinator made everything happen with ease. The food was top-notch and the mansion was beautiful. Numerous guests told us it was “the best” wedding reception they ever attended! We know Loose Mansion and the wonderful staff made it so!

Loose Mansion provided the venue and plated dinner for my son's wedding rehearsal dinner. There were nearly 50 guests. The location was perfect. The food was terrific and the staff was flexable very easy to work with. I would recommend this venue for any small to medium size gathering.

I cannot say enough good things about Loose Mansion. From the minute I walked in the door to view the mansion, I knew I had to have my wedding there. The mansion itself is beautiful and located conveniently to many things. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. But, the best part of Loose Mansion is the staff. I planned this wedding from out of town and in the midst of a house sale, and overseas move. Barbara, Lauren, and Amy were amazing and took all of the pressure off me. Through numerous emails and phone calls, they planned everything. And when I was in town, they met with me, at my convenience, to go over all of the decorations and took the names of all of my vendors. From that point on, they contacted everyone and made sure every detail was ready. They were organized, proactive and most importantly, gracious. Upon arrival on that first day, to the day of my wedding when the last guest left, they left nothing out. The mansion was perfect on arrival, the vendors executed as planned and the wedding surpassed all of my hopes. The food, location, and customer service were outstanding. It was truly the wedding of my dreams, and the perfect day. And while every bride might be biased with her choices, the compliments from my guests were affirmation that Loose Mansion is truly an amazing place.

We used Loose Mansion for our rehearsal dinner. It was the perfect venue..classy yet comfortable. The staff were wonderful to work with and made the planning process very easy. They offered a variety of options with food and decor. Once our decisions were made they managed the evening flawlessly and left my husband and I to enjoy the festivities with our families. The food was delicious, the presentation was wonderful, the staff were courteous and attentive and the venue simply speaks for itself...it is beautiful. We received so many compliments from both sides of the family for such a wonderful evening. I would highly recommend Loose Mansion.

We fell in love with Loose Mansion the moment we stepped foot in the door. The venue was the perfect place for us to have our wedding reception. The inside has been spectacularly restored to its original beauty and the cost of the space and food (delicious) was very affordable. The staff is easy going, detail oriented and made sure we were pleased with everything from start to finish! I look forward to hosting additional parties there in the future.

Our wedding day was perfect, and flowed flawlessly through the different parts. The food was amazing, and the staff were attentive in assuring that everything was perfect. The mansion was prepared beautifully, and our guests were very pleased with the venue and the staff. I would recommend this venue to anyone have a wedding or event.

Wonderful and Amazing... two words that describe our evening at Loose Mansion. From the first tour of the Historic Building, meeting Owners and Staff we knew this is where we wanted to hold our Reception. Barb and her staff know exactly what it takes to run a Full Service Venue such as this. They made our evening something we will remember and cherish for a lifetime. The food we chose was prepared by their chief with perfection. We went about our evening enjoying our time with our guests never having to think about any thing or worry about what is next or if everyone is being taken care of. IF you want a venue that offers the total package, with a price that can be tailed to fit your budget, this is the place.
You will see by reading the reviews they are the best in town.

Thanks

My husband and I wed at Loose Mansion back in February of this year. There are endless things to say about the venue, beginning with the owner I suppose is where to begin! Barb met with us back in the summer of 2010 to help us begin planning our wedding, since I am in the Air Force and was only home to meet her the last portion of my R&R, we booked the venue for 27 Feb, and I went back to Afghanistan to continue planning the wedding, but could NOT have done it without Barb or her wonderful staff. This speaks to the excellent service they provide, allowing the flexibility to plan things from across the pond set the benchmark for premier customer service. Once I returned in November, we only had a limited time to plan the wedding, and Barb and the staff made themselves readily available, all the while maintaining their busy schedule at the mansion. Day of the wedding, you always plan for something to go wrong because you are told to, well, if you leave it up to Barb and the staff, nothing will go wrong. They are detail-oriented so you don't have to be. You can relax and enjoy your day without the regrets. This, in my opinion, is invaluable. For a bride to look back on her wedding and say "everything went as planned," I'm not sure I have met another who can say the same. Quality, friendly, expert service is what those at Loose Mansion are all about.

From the beautiful building, to the professional staff, and the delicious food, my husband and I are very happy that we chose Loose Mansion for our ceremony and reception venue. Our guests still comment on the food, and my husband and I only regret that we couldn't eat more that day :) Thank you!

It has almost been an entire year since our wedding, but my husband and I (as well as both of our families!) continue to rave about our experience at Loose Mansion. From the moment we expressed interest in holding our ceremony and reception at Loose Mansion, we experienced nothing but timely, professional, and personal attention and service. Loose Mansion is clearly a well-oilded machine and I truely appreciated how organized they were during every step of the planning procress--especially due to the fact that my husband I were planning the wedding while living in Chicago! I really never once felt stressed or worried that a task would not be completed or a detail would be missed.

We have nothing but the highest compliments for the Loose Mansion and every person that is assoicated with them. The food for our reception was AMAZING, the staff was incredible, and I couldn't envision a more beautiful venue to hold a wedding than Loose Mansion. They clearly take pride in maintaining the facility itself and the Saathoffs and their staff display such kindness, caring, and professionalism that we never once questioned our choice to hold our wedding at Loose Mansion. They even provided us with a list of recommended vendors (very helpful for us out-of-towners) who provided us with services up to par with Loose Mansion itself.

Additionally, the value was unbelievable considering how expensive weddings can be. We LOVED that we could supply our own alcohol...when comparing with friends who held their receptions elsewhere it was clear that this opportunity saved us THOUSANDS of dollars. We would highly recommend Loose Mansion to anyone who is getting married or who wants to host another event without having to sweat about the small details because Loose Mansion's amazing staff will take care of that for you!

We were so pleased with our daughter's wedding reception at The Loose Mansion. The elegant house looked absolutely magical that evening, the
decorations being even more beautiful than we could have envisioned. The food and it's presentation was wonderful (thanks to a fantastic chef), and
everyone on the staff was so kind and gracious. The staff is amazing - efficient and professional, as well as warm and welcoming. Everything was
perfect, and it was such a pleasure to be able to relax and enjoy the party, confident that we were in good hands. Every detail of the event was
anticipated in our planning sessions, and we were encouraged to add in personal touches to make the event our own. We received prompt responses to all calls and emails, and helpful advice for every aspect of the celebration. The Loose Mansion is a real treasure in Kansas City - a magnificently restored historic mansion with an expert event staff.

I am so glad I did our reception here. the food was excellent and the staff was very attentive. Loose Mansion is beautiful and Barbara ( who owns the mansion) is wonderful to work with it. The rest of the staff was great too. Day off they sweat the details so that you dont have to. The also let you bring your own alcohol which makes the cost a lot more afforable.

My husband and I planned our wedding from out of town and they were really accommodating and flexible. Whenever we were in town if we wanted to meet with them, they were happy to schedule meeting and talk about whatever details we wanted to.

Loose mansion is a beautiful and unique venue. We wanted to do our wedding somewhere that wasn't a generic hotel and was unique to KC. When we saw Loose Mansion we fell in love with it and immediately booked it. Loose's service is as great as their venue. They are a full-service venue that made our wedding day perfect. We didnt have to worry about any of the details for our wedding, which was such a great relief day of. We also reserved the carriage house for two nights (the bed and breakfast attached to the venue) which made it super convenient for our wedding party.

Everyone commented about how fun and beautiful our wedding was and I couldn't be more thankful to Loose Mansion for making it so special!

Everything was perfect. Venue was wonderful, staff was great, they planned almost everything for you. HIGHLY recommend.

The staff was wonderful here -- not to mention the site is BEAUTIFUL! Every person that attended our wedding raved about the service, the atmosphere, and the food!

If you want the perfect balance of ambience, a professional while personable staff and an outstanding chef to create your palate’s dream all within your budget, look no further than Loose Mansion. The Mansion is a secret gem our daughter and now son-in-law discovered while shopping for a venue for their wedding reception. Our “planning journey” to make our daughter’s vision a reality was simplified by our first planning meeting with the knowledgeable staff, a tasting dinner to explore cuisine options and follow-up e-mails to finalize all details. When my husband became gravely ill just 8 days prior to the reception, all the final little details that really tie an event together truly fell into the hands of Barb Saathoff and her amazing staff including, Amy, Lauren, Allison and all those behind the scenes players. The emotions I felt when I walked into Loose Mansion and saw my daughter’s vision had come to life are indescribable. The crowning accolades came from our guests who raved about the beauty of the Mansion and decor, the service and the food. I highly recommend Loose Mansion as THE place for your special event!

I feel compelled to write a great review of Loose Mansion. It was the perfect choice for our daughter's wedding reception. The food was excellent. We received so many comments throughout the evening about the great food! One of our guests is a fabulous gourmet cook and and she raved on about it. The staff is excellent every step of the way. They are very detail-oriented. An event plan with every detail is written up for you to review, which makes it so easy to ENJOY your event. You are the host without all of the host duties. So, whatever special announcements you may have throughout evening or however you want the timing of events to happen, someone is making sure that it happens just as you want it, all planned in detail ahead of time. The staff encourages you to give them as many specific details as you want; they love what they do! The atmosphere was so amazing the minute our guests walked into the reception. It was so romantic, so beautiful, so welcoming. The perfect mood was set for a very fun night right at the beginning. I think this is very important for a wedding reception. You plan for so long for just one night and to see your guests reaction and hear their wonderful comments just as they have arrived was a great feeling!

We recently had our wedding reception on the 3rd floor ballroom at the Loose Mansion and it was the most perfect space for our event. The Loose Mansion is such a historic site and we loved having our event there and will always remember the day as being magical. The day of our event, there was another reception on the main level and we never would have known it was going if the staff didn't mention it. The 2 spaces are completely seperate and you never heard or saw the other event. We had a large band playing and the event below apparently had a DJ and the sound of each event was completely isolated. The Mansion staff is very professional and capable of making the appropriate separations. We had our own parking lot and entrance so our guests were not confused on where to go or park. We highly recommend the Loose Mansion and their well equiped staff. They have their own professional planners, chefs, attendants, waiters and they literally take care of all the details. As a bride, that is a huge relief. It's a one stop shop for weddings and they'll take care of every detail. We loved how nice, sweet and accomodating they were too. The value of the whole deal is second to none and we are so glad we didn't try to piecemeal the event together ourselves. The food was amazing and some of our guests said it was the best food they've ever had at a wedding and they loved how classy the space was. Thank you to the Loose Mansion staff for making our wedding reception extra special!

The Mansion staff is great. They brought my wedding vision to life. The cost is more but it is SO worth it! Choosing this venue made my wedding planning experience so NOT stressful since they took care of so many details.

Amazing experience, great location, they do all the work and the venue is gorgeous!

Loose Mansion made my wedding reception planning and experience flawless and free of stress. They bent over backwards to accommodate. They really are a full service vendor. We used their space, their decorations, their food and they contacted all my other vendors to coordinate things. They even helped me find a ceremony site. The food was wonderful, the space was beautiful and they were so pleasant to work with. Because of them, my reception was the least stressful part of my whole wedding planning experience. I cannot highly recommend them enough.

The owners and staff at Loose Mansion could not have been better. They are incredibly quick to respond and provide invaluable information. They completely accomodated all of my wishes and the event space itself is absolutely beautiful. Choosing Loose Mansion was the best decision!

Loose Mansion is not only incredibly beautiful, but the staff is AMAZING. They were great to work with when planning my wedding and I was even more impressed with their work on my wedding day. They were incredible attentive and took care of problems before I even knew about them. I had guests comment on how friendly the staff was! And the food was outstanding. I would highly recommend Loose Mansion for any event, they really helped me pull off my dream wedding.

We just had our ceremony and reception at Loose Mansion, and the entire event was perfect in every way, thanks to Barb, Amy and the amazing staff! They were so helpful during the planning process, recommending vendors and offering ideas and suggestions. They coordinated all my wedding vendors, so the week before the wedding was stress-free, and the day of was even better – they took care of every detail, and some I wouldn’t even have thought of – so I was truly able to just relax and enjoy the day with family and friends. Our guests raved about the food, it was one of the best dinners I’ve ever had. And I never had an empty glass of champagne thanks to the super attentive staff. The venue has so much natural charm and beauty, it would be impossible not to have a gorgeous wedding there! I’d recommend Loose Mansion to any future bride.

We had a small wedding reception (~45 people) in the 3rd Floor Ballroom and couldn't have been happier. I was planning the wedding from the east coast so needed a venue that took care of everything. I never thought it could be so stress free. We had one meeting a few months out to select most of the details, then just a few emails in the week or two before to finalize things. They took care of everything! They have a selection of centerpieces that are included as well as their basic linens. It makes the pricing so reasonable since you don't have to get floral centerpieces or other decorations (though you can if you want). The mansion is beautiful and ornate enough on it's own! It was absolutely beautiful and I was so happy with their service! The food was delicious too!

The staff at the Loose Mansion are indescribable! They made my wedding feel like it was the only thing they were worried about. All of my emails and phone calls were returned quickly and I never felt like just another Bride. They are more pricey than other venues but worth every penny. The food is FANTASTIC and even when I contacted other vendors, they said that same thing to me. My dogs were even allowed inside for the ceremony! You can use their stock of centerpieces, but with how gorgeous the place is, you don't even need it. Every one of my guests commented on how beautiful the mansion was. I never regretted using the mansion for one minute!

Loose Mansion and the entire staff was a pleasure to
work with. The minute we walked in the door we were met with warm greetings. Barbara Saathoff (owner), Amy Capps, (Events Director), Lauren White (Coordinator), as well as the police officer that directed traffic and many others treated our family and guests with exceptional hospitality. I will continue to promote Loose Mansion as the perfect venue for weddings/receptions, small/large in number and formal or informal.

If you want to have a fantastic wedding, this is the place to have it.

My husband and I booked Loose Mansion for the reception following our daughter's outdoor wedding ceremony at Loose Park Rose Garden. We somehow lucked out on a break in the heat and had a beautiful day. The staff at Loose were on top of everything and made the day joyful and worryfree. From the first meeting to saying good-bye at the end of Carrie and Kyle's big day, everything was perfect. We had a small group of 75, so we used the 3rd floor ballroom and it provided a comfortable and elegant setting for dining and dancing. The photos were amazing, too.

From the time my husband, daughter, her future husband & I walked into the Mansion we were swept away by the building's beauty. We were greeted warmly & professionally. Barbara & her staff were awesome from the first meeting. They took a personal interest in the wedding couple & want they wanted. They let us know what was avaliable & tailored it to what was desired & fit with our budget. They continually kept in touch with the wedding couple & with us. Working with all the staff, including their fabulous chef, was a joy & decreased our stress level. They worked with outside vendors to make sure everything was perfect. We had Amy working with us at the wedding rehearsal, as well as the day of the wedding at the Rose Garden at Loose Park. She was so organized & kept all of us calm. Evertything was perfect from beginning to the end. The Mansion was beautifully decorated, the food delicious, and the service impecable. At one point, our daughter needed her insulin, which a family member had misplaced. Several of the staff, including Barbara, came to the rescue & searched everywhere until it was located. We were able to enjoy our daughter's most special day & evening without any worry. The comments from our guests were very complimentary to Barbara & her staff regarding the whole experience. They made the day a bride's dream come true.

Most beautiful place to possibly have a wedding! The price was just what we were looking for too! With my husband about to go overseas, we really wanted to find the perfect place to create our magical evening. This was it!

We chose Loose Mansion because it was pretty much an all-inclusive vendor. They did the food, non-floral decor, ceremony and reception, and wedding coordination. They made our wedding a breeze. The LM staff worked with all of our vendors and everything went so smooth that night. People said it was the best wedding they had ever been too. The food was amazing, the decor was amazing, and my husband and I had the time of our life!!!

Choosing Loose Mansion proved to be one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. It's obvious that the venue is a gorgeous, well-kept property that will WOW most attendees. But we were even more impressed with the staff, the flexibility and accommodations made for our event. We had a couple ideas for food that were not on the menu, the Chef graciously worked with us to do (at a good price as well). The event staff helped in every way they could, even driving us back to our hotel when we couldn't get a cab at the end of the night. Bringing in your own alcohol, even paying the nominal set-up fee to Loose Mansion, proved to save us a ton of money (and set us up for a fun summer with lots of leftover beer & wine!). It's not the cheapest venue in town, but hands-down we would do it all again there.

Loose Mansion was a perfect venue for our ceremony and reception. We had the whole mansion, so it was great for guests to be able to spread out and find their perfect spot. The staff is wonderful and so helpful. They do everything, from the setup, tear down, food, decorations, etc. They were even able to do the flowers at wholesale for the centerpieces. Another big cost saver was that fact that you provide your own alcohol. Many other places inflate these prices and you end up paying way more than you should have to for the alcohol. All in all it was a great day and everyone was fantastic.

They were wonderful, even with all my questions and emails and changes. The only problem is we ended up having way to much food.
They even put up my paper cranes on the ceiling.

Great, professional staff! Amazing location and look, all the included decor was amazing! The food was good, but I'd probably only give it 4/5 stars.

Loose Mansion was the most beautiful place to have our wedding. I especially appreciated how well my wedding coordinator handled everything so I didn't have to worry about anything on the big day.

This is a wonderful place to have both your wedding and reception. This is a full-service venue. You will save a significant amount of money using this venue because you can purchase your own alcohol and they will serve it. They are very accomodating and the food is delicious. You don't need a wedding planner when you go with this venue space because they do everything for you from set-up to break down. You will not be disappointed.

Awesome venue - lots of history, very beautiful interior, lots of space and flexibility, central location.

Several of my wedding clients over the years have selected Loose Mansion for either reception or wedding & reception, and I can attest to their high level of care and organization. My clients receive great customer service, and behind the scenes (from a pro photographer point of view), they extend that same level of care. The events of the day always run smoothly, the building is beautiful and always seems to get better and better, and the guests receive a fun and safe attendance. Always a pleasure to photograph at Loose Mansion.

So beautiful! WONDERFUL location to have a lovely wedding! People are super nice and easy to work with!

I have filmed several weddings there. They are classy, the building is amazing, and the staff is awesome to work with!!

Loose Mansion is of course historical, but more importantly it is beautiful! Imagine your guests seeing you descend the magnificient staircase. This is a must see when you are searching for a wedding venue. The fact that you can have the ceremony and the reception there makes it even more special. The best part though is something you cannot see, you can only experience and that is the staff. Loose Mansion's staff is so professional and so accomodating. What more could you want on your wedding day? We've provided photobooths for so many weddings at Loose Mansion and every couple was thrilled with the Loose Mansion experience.

You can just feel the richness, and the history as you pass through the rooms of the gorgeous Loose Mansion. Top notch staff! One of our favorite places to DJ!

What an incredible venue! I've been all over Kansas City for three decades and this is far and away one of my favorite places to photograph a wedding.

A beautiful facililty, great staff and fantastic food...what else is there to say?

Wow, what can I say!? Simply elegant and first class in every aspect. Their service and staff attention to detailed is top notch. They have one of the best executive chefs in the KC area. He hails from restaurants in the Plaza and has taken wedding delicacies to the best level possible in KC. 5 STARS NO DOUBT!

Loose Mansion is a lovely facility to have a special event. It is very intimate and has a great history and personality all its' own.
