28 Event Space was one of the best choices we made for our wedding. We had originally booked The Station for our 2020 wedding, which had to be rescheduled (for obvious reasons), and they were so easy to work with during such a stressful season....
The floor plan of The Station is INCREDIBLE, and having all of our events in one place was perfection. I love how understated and elegant the venue's decor is- also, the amount of amenities included in the package is unheard of- DJ services, bartending and a party bus? Amazing. PLEASE check them out if you want an easy stress-free spot to hold your special day!

mill event space… it offers so much more. 28event is a one stop shop if you need it to be. We choose the plan that included dj, bar, party bus transportation and beautiful areas for guys and gals to get ready in. This event allows you to byob and bring your own catering. Don’t let the industrial neighborhood fool you… when dressed up the inside becomes very elegant. If you are looking for a venue that offers a lot for a reasonable price visiting 28 event space is a must. Our reception was 24 tables plus a head table of 17 people, we still had plenty of room for a large dance floor. Do your self a favor and go with Icon music, their in house DJ vendor they are amazing also.

help from our planner, who we later had some issues with, and 28 Event Space did an amazing job helping us find a new planner and stepping in to reassure us that our day would still be perfect! Our guests loved the gorgeous, big space. The surrounding parking was perfect. I had a blast hanging with my friends and getting ready in the huge bridal suite! The bar tenders were also absolutely incredible - fast, friendly, and made great drinks. The space makes it easy for vendors to load up everything that’s needed, with big garage doors and loading spaces. The lighting is also awesome! The only change I think I’d make to the space is not staying there overnight after our event. Due to the surrounding area having other event spaces and bars, it was very very loud until about 3:30 am in the couples’ suite and we didn’t sleep really at all. I would 1000% recommend 28 event space!

We chose 28 Event Space - The Kansas City Room for our wedding ceremony and reception venue because the amenities were unbeatable for the price. Some of our favorite things about the space were that it held our 215 count guest list comfortably,...
the bridal suite was huge and an amazing place to get ready before the big day, party bus was included, they have a discount deal with a local DJ company, you can bring your own alcohol to serve at the reception and they don't limit your catering options which both allowed us to save thousands on alcohol and food. One of the downsides is that in the 8 months between booking and having the wedding they went through 3 different venue managers so communication was kind of rocky for some of it, but the venue manager that we ended up working with the days before the wedding was amazing and super helpful. Since there was a lot of turnover we got different answers to all of our questions and it took a lot of reading through the contract to figure out what was right, which was frustrating. However, the positives totally outweigh the negatives and I would definitely book with them again if we had to do it all over!

y to work with, and accommodating. Wedding planning during the COVID pandemic was not easy, but Doug and his team did all that they could to ensure we would still be able to have our dream day. For example - about a month before the wedding, we decided that we wanted to have an outdoor space for guests who didn't feel comfortable mingling inside because of COVID. Doug was very open to this and allowed us to set up tents and use two different outdoor areas at 28 Event Space. Some of the highlights of the venue for us were: the general flexibility of the staff; the DJ, bartenders, and transportation being included in the price; the bride and groom suites; and the ability to provide your own alcohol. The only downside of our experience working with 28 Event Space would be that there was a lot of staff turnover - so much so that every meeting we had was with a different person. Despite this, our questions were always answered by someone and our reception turned out beautifully!

'our way or the highway'. They offer bar staffing but you can bring your own alcohol. We chose 'The Station', and the venue itself is big, classy, and beautiful! The groom and bridal suites are very nice and spacious. They also have very nice kitchen/prep area for the catering staff of your choice. The included party bus is actually super nice, and way better than a limousine. The Station was actually not our original choice in venue, but due to Covid-19, we had to change our venue. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise, as our family and guests all raved about how much better it was than the original venue and how beautiful it was. The with all the marble and upscale finishes, the space hardly needed any extra decor. We highly recommend booking The Station to anyone looking for an elegant venue with outstanding service and added benefits typically not provided by other venues!

We had our wedding at The Station on September 28. I have wavered back and forth between giving this venue a 4 or a 5 star review, but ultimately I settled on a 4 for several reasons. First let me talk about the positives: The venue is beauti...
ful -- the décor inside the Station is lovely and with the lights on at night, it is just the mood you want for a wedding. The size of the bridal suite is lovely and it's nice that they have a Groom's suite as well. The venue coordinators are good at allowing you sufficient time to set up and take down your decorations (this is probably my favorite part about this location). I like that they had a package that included their bartenders, transportation options and a DJ from Icon Event Group, those were convenient to not have to worry about on top of booking everything else. My mixed feelings about the venue are the shape/layout of the venue -- it can either work to your advantage and disadvantage. Also, if you have any elderly family that need a lower stimulus environment, the openness of the venue doesn't give them any area to temporarily retreat to -- especially because the upstairs isn't wheelchair accessible. My negative feelings about the venue is that they advertise it can hold up to 200 I believe. I fretted a lot prior to the wedding about it feeling too cramped, but everyone I've spoken with said it felt cozy and inviting (which made me feel so much better). Things to know if you book this venue: A room flip is not feasible at a certain guest count if you opt to have your ceremony and your reception there. There is nowhere for your guests to go if you decide to do this -- particularly if you have tables over near the bar section. I think our actual guest count including wedding party ended up being around 160, less than 170. I think they should tell you ahead of time that they sit 10 people at 60 inch rounds instead of 8 -- which wasn't terrible, but it's something to know -- it cramps the place settings if that is in your design.

number of guests (we had 250), but the mural of the skyline is just so different and unique than any other venue! It was fun for our guests and is a great way to remember 28 Event Space! The staff is extremely accommodating. I felt Maura was extremely personable, even calming when I was stress crying (LOL- thank you!). Everything we had talked about and planned was perfect and went smoothly! The tables arrangements and decor looked amazing! We used their suggested DJ package, Icon Event Space. My parents, husband and I are so glad we picked this beautiful spot. Our guests had a blast, as did we! Everyone had such nice things to say! The only complaint we have is it was a little warm in the room before we opened the garage doors. We understand though because what room wouldn’t be with 250 people? Ha! However, it was totally OK! We highly recommend this space! Thank you, again!!!!

he Kansas City Room in May and we were able to bring the garage doors up once the sun had gone down after dinner. Everyone LOVED that!! We also got to reveal the mural of Kansas City after dinner which was so cool! We reserved both the bridal suite and the grooms suite that come with the venue. My whole bridal party (6 total girls) were able to come the morning of the reception and get their hair and makeup done at the venue with me! Some of the girls even stayed overnight with me the night before. Time and time again I will recommend this venue. It's 100% worth it's cost. We were also able to reserve a bus to take our wedding party around for pictures before the ceremony and then everyone and their significant others from the ceremony to the reception through 28! It was so convenient! We worked with Karly and then with Maura the day before the reception and they were both so sweet and helpful with all my small requests. They helped me stay calm during the planning process. There was not a single hiccup at the reception thanks to 28 Event Space and their staff for being amazing!!!

check that we were still on for the tour, nobody would email me back. I called, and nobody answered the phone. It came down to me having to leave a voicemail to the venue an hour before our appointment asking if we were still supposed to drive downtown to meet them. After four days of not hearing from them and leaving them a message the day of the appointment, they didn’t even have the decency to call and apologize for missing the appointment THEY scheduled with me. It was a waste of my time as I could have booked other venues that morning who were actually willing to communicate with me as a business should.

ices and we purchased the basic one because we were on a budget. The level of service we received was no different than if we would have committed to the most expensive. The site is close to downtown which was important to us. They didn’t have an event scheduled the day before so we were allowed to decorate early, which made the wedding day so much more relaxed and as the mother of the bride, I was able to really enjoy the celebration. I was worried about parking but since the contract includes parking attendants this was not an issue. We did not serve alcohol but the contract includes bartenders. I was worried that the bartenders would be upset about the loss of tip money due to no alcohol, but they served soda, maintained the water and coffee dispensers perfectly and with a great attitude. Christine, our day-of coordinator was excellent as well; making sure everything was ready prior to guest arrival; lighting candles, pouring the toasting drinks, etc. My daughter and her fiancée live out of state and Maura and her staff allowed us to visit whenever they were in town, they answered phone calls and text messages almost always the same day.

lanning on having 75-100 wedding guests so the KC room was going to be a bit too large for our needs. The Station being a smaller space, was more accommodating to the smaller wedding guest count. Now since we got word of this new event space before it was built, they were not quite accepting deposits for dates at that time. Once we were alerted to put our money down, there were a few hiccups but nothing to really mention now since everything worked out in the end AND you always have to expect with a new event space there are going to be a few things to sort out in the beginning. We didn’t really have an assigned main point of contact (as far as I know) leading up to the big day which seemed like maybe a downfall but honestly it was never an issue because any questions we had you could send in through the online portal and get a fairly quick response. I think the majority of the responses came from Karly and she was always extremely helpful. We decided to do the largest package with The Station which included, but not limited to, two overnight suites (takes care of 2 hotel rooms!), linens (even ones in my color theme), tables/chairs, bartenders, parking lot attendants, the limo/party bus for 4hrs-ish, photo booth, car racing game, pool table, day of coordinator... I am sure I am forgetting something- We had to find our own DJ, caterers, photographer and liquor provider but this was nothing considering all that was involved with the venue itself. We had a meeting with Courtney about a month before and she took very detailed notes about our wants and needs for the day of- made us feel very confident for the upcoming big day! Fast forward- wedding day we ended up getting Courtney for our day of coordinator and she was fantastic! The scheduled bartender ended up not being able to come in, so Courtney manned the bar! And if there was anything that went wrong throughout the evening, we had no idea- she really was wonderful. (we had many compliments from our guests as well about her!)

with Karly, we decided on a Friday wedding because of the availability. There are many perks to a Friday wedding at 28 Event Space – the biggest and most helpful was having Thursday access to the venue. The all-inclusive price included Friday night in the lofts, but a Friday wedding included an extra night (Thurs). It kept my mind at ease knowing we had a full day for set-up and to get acquainted with the space. We had our ceremony at a church near by, but a room flip would have been great in the space too. All our vendors had experience working at and with 28 Event Space and there was a sense of familiarity for them when we would go over the details of our day. There was only one snafu and it was that we had a couple of different coordinators in our 9 months. Karly was a constant so that helped, and for our day-of, we worked with Courtney. Courtney was AWESOME to work with. She was new-ish on our wedding day but Karly being there was super helpful and kept me at ease. Courtney has a great energy and enthusiasm about her….just what we needed nearing the end of our engagement! On the day-of, we spent it getting ready in the suites. It was so helpful literally being in the next room as our vendors. It was great having a front-row seat to seeing the magic happen. Being type-A, it was great to just have my hands in everything! Everything and everyone that was part of 28 Event Space was highly personable, approachable and patient (perfect for brides to deal with!). We used one of the suites during the reception as a “Child’s Suite” and had a babysitter come in and watch the young kiddos as their parents had fun on the dance floor. My parents and in-laws were extremely impressed at the ease of having it in that location! So many things I didn’t have to tend to because of 28 Event Space: accommodations for the night before/night-of, shuttle services for our guests, party bus for the bridal party, a place to get ready (the vanity is picture-perfect) and so much more. Parking was great for the guests and the space was so open that no matter where anyone sat, they were able to see everything! We used the stage for our cake cutting and it was great to look out into the crowd and see our reception in front of us. 28 Event Space is a one-stop shop for a great wedding.

This venue was my dream venue. The location was perfect, central in the city. There was ample parking for a city location and the staff was incredible. You get some many extras with 28 Event Space, including security, parking attendants, bar...
tenders, plenty of restrooms and of course, day of coordination. I LOVED that the venue provided so many decor & set up items and that it was beautifully decorated so I didn't feel like I had to spend a bunch of money on making the place look presentable. They are very organized, kind, and helpful, from the moment we contacted them for a tour Karly and her team set us as ease. You won't be disappointed if you book with 28 Event Space.

I am not booking the 28 Event Space for my event. While it is a beautiful venue with a pretty good location downtown, it is overpriced compared to similar spaces with similar amenities. The reason I felt compelled to write a review is when I ...
contacted the space to request pricing information and to ensure the date I needed was available, Courtney (28 Event Space Coordinator as of May 2017), responded by emailing two prospective customers at the same time and failing to bcc us. The other customer and myself then went through a week of irritating miscommunication before we realized neither of the other was the coordinator (Courtney did not respond to emails within days of receiving them to clear this up). She then did not apologize or even acknowledge that she had made an error. I could have gotten over that initial communication error if when I finally was able to schedule a time to tour the space, Courtney had taken the time to re-confirm that the date I needed was available. Instead, I made a special trip to see the space only to arrive (and wait for her to show up for another 10 minutes), for her to tell me the date I requested wasn't available. Are you kidding me!? How difficult is it to re-confirm a date prior to making a prospective customer waste their time?! In summary, the space is pretty. There are better investments scattered through the city, and beware Courtney's planning abilities.

ce low to mid 80s that day and they opened the garage doors the whole night to help give our wedding the summer night feel that we dreamed of. The only little blip with the venue would have been the photobooth. Unless you held really still for a few seconds after the photos were taken, they came out blurry. But otherwise, everything was great, the rooms were amazing and allowed us to stay and keep a small party going with our wedding party after. Couldn't say enough great things about this venue!

ithout ever setting foot in the space! It turns out that was a great decision! We worked with Maura from the beginning of the planning process and she was always accommodating to my many questions and scheduling meetings around our visits to Kansas City. Planning from afar can be a daunting task and having a coordinator to contact directly really put me at ease. Maura left shortly before our wedding which definitely made me nervous, but I was relieved to be placed in Karly's very capable hands! Our wedding day could not have been more wonderful. Everything from the bridal suite to the ceremony set up to the reception, was amazing! The seamless transition from ceremony space to cocktail hour and then the room flip for the reception made it very easy for our guests and kept the evening flowing smoothly. I have heard from multiple people how much they loved the venue and the staff. Thank you 28 Event Space for helping to give us one unforgettable Wedding! Can we do it all over again now, please?? :)
