Cellar 222

ridal suite, plenty of parking & the vibe was exactly what we wanted for our special day. It was my dream venue and I’m in love with it. I loved the two floors. Steve, the owner, is amazing to work with and was so helpful the entire way through. He made us feel comfortable & informed from the very first meeting. He was very accommodating & was there every step of the way. He also recommended preferred vendors and worked with our other vendors as well. We couldn’t have asked for a better person & venue to work with on our special day! Thank you Cellar 222, we would highly recommend this venue for any special occasion!

ays so patient with me. The venue looked incredible for our actual wedding and they did a great job of flipping the space between the ceremony and reception. If you are looking for a laid back space that has incredible preferred vendors (catering, bar, and linens) look no further than Cellar 222.

ed too crowded. The two floors allowed our guests to spread out and created some separation for those that wanted to dance the night away with the band upstairs (shout out to KC All-Stars) and those who wanted to spend the time talking in the more subdued downstairs. It was an amazing evening and we could not be happier with Cellar 222. Steve did a great job of supporting us and giving us advice along the way. The venue is beautiful and needs no decoration, although we added a few just make it extra special...including lots of candles! From the moment we walked through the space for our initial tour we knew it was the right spot for our event. Aside from the venue being turnkey ready some of the definite benefits of this venue is the flexibility you have to use outside vendors. We opted to use several of the preferred vendors that Steve provided us and they too were awesome to work with (shout out to Top Shelf Bartending, Dutzel Catering, and Sugar Beats Bake Shop). Additionally, as a gay couple we are always attuned to how welcoming the vendors we worked with seemed in the process. Not all businesses are as open minded as we would hope and it was import to us to work with people who are supportive of our tribe. From the start Steve was awesome to work with and it was definitely apparent he was a supportive ally. We honestly have not one concern, complaint, or issue and highly recommend Cellar 222! Cellar 222 is beautiful, affordance, flexible, and in a great location with lots of parking for guests. You will not be disappointed!

ayout and Tuscan wine cellar decor made it feel cozy and intimate for our ceremony and reception. In fact, the furniture and decor along the walls are so beautiful that we didn't need to bring many decorations of our own, which was perfect since we were trying to keep our day as easy and low-stress as possible. The owner, Steve, is AMAZING. He is so kind and easygoing, and we knew the moment we met him and saw the venue that Cellar 222 was the way to go. He recommended great vendors that frequently work with the venue so the planning process was a breeze, but we also appreciated the flexibility of choosing our own bakery for the cake. Overall, I am SO glad that we chose Cellar 222 for our wedding. I felt so pretty coming down the staircase in my dress to walk down the aisle, and everyone loved the reception that followed and kept talking about how beautiful and unique the venue is. Thank you, Cellar 222!

my needs were met. He gave me great ideas and he was so easy to communicate with. I received so many compliments about the venue choice and how beautiful our wedding was.

ke to get married and throw together a wedding prior to the birth of our son. A quick Google search connected me with Steve and Cellar 222, and within a week of being engaged we secured the venue and got to planning. Steve was communicative and helpful throughout. His recommendations and preferred vendor list made the process easy and affordable. We had an intimate ceremony and dinner by the fireplace, followed by a larger party upstairs complete with DJ and open bar. We could never have imagined how well, beautiful, and FUN it would have turned out, and would not have been able to pull it off without Steve. Would recommend again and again, especially for a cozy, winter party like the one we had. Thank you, Steven and Cellar 222!

Steven Bell. It is his goal to make your day perfect, truly. On the day of your event, he has it down to a well oiled machine. Everything just flows easily, it is beautiful, and he is correct about candles, at night it is just magical. Don’t pass up this gem. The price is AMAZING! It’s not just a giant dull round ballroom. This has elegant and beautiful little nooks for you and your guests to sit down and feel comfortable. Absolute PERFECTION.

perfect! Additionally, it was an absolutely beautiful space and never felt crowded with our group of roughly 100 individuals. I HIGHLY recommend Cellar 222 for any event!!

eat ideas to share from his experience, but let you be as unique as you wanted. If you are looking for a romantic and memorable location Cellar 222 is it! They have a list of others vendors to help you check off all the things on your to do list. I could not have dreamed up a better place or a better team to work with! Thank you for making my wedding a true fairy tale.

es a list of recommended vendors and we used the caterer, DJ, and bar tender from the list and they worked out great. This venue has the urban vibe we wanted and we created a soft and welcoming environment with lots of candles, silk flower arrangements and soft lighting. We loved having a cocktail hour on the first floor and transitioning down to dinner and back up stairs for dancing- the spaciousness was something all our guests commented on. They all loved this space and I honestly can say you will be in the best hands while planning with Steve and his team. Enjoy!

ome stage for a DJ or live band and more than enough room down stairs for dinner and the ceremony. We loved the atmosphere and decor that made up Cellar 222. 10/10 recommend!

les for talking and visiting on the lower floor. Steve provided great recommendations for trusted vendors, was extremely responsive and let us come visit for planning as much as we wanted. I had a very short timeframe (4 1/2 months with no wedding coordinator!) and Steve’s calm demeanor gave me the confidence that it would all come together. It’s a really great venue especially if you want to have your ceremony and reception in the same location. I highly recommend it.

nstairs and then drinks and music upstairs was perfect and really gave our reception a good atmosphere. The venue is an excellent price and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a reception space.

o get in the very cool, unique interior of the venue and it requires very little additional decorations, which saved us so much time and stress. Highly recommend a tour of this venue, especially if you are looking at a smaller guest list!

wedding. The venue is absolutely beautiful. There are plenty of opportunities to decorate, but the space is so lovely by itself that it doesn’t require a lot of decor if you don’t want to focus on that. We absolutely recommend this venue for your celebration!

a lovely venue with different levels for you to really enjoy and have a semi small wedding. The fireplace was the perfect setting for us to say I do and the entire place was exactly what we needed. They say to always look at more than one spot before you decide, but we knew that this was the place for us and was very reasonably priced. I wish I could give this an even higher rating, but just know that you are going to love having your wedding there. The professionalism and kindness Steve showed us makes me want to do it all over again because of that alone.

l decorated. Our guests kept telling us how much they enjoyed the venue and how nice it looked. Steve was so accommodating and helpful. He was also very responsive when I had questions. I appreciated that we could use our own vendors, but also liked that Steve was able to give me some names of trusted vendors when I wasn't sure who I wanted to use. I would feel confident recommending this venue to anyone!

doesn’t take much to bring it to life. That was another big thing for me! We had the best night ever and our guest loved Cellar 222!

ore the day. The venue doesn't require a lot of extra decorating and we received so many compliments from guests on the unique venue. Our favorite thing about Cellar 222 is that it's 2 levels so you can have the party/dancing on one floor and chatting/relaxing on another to accommodate everyone. There is no elevator between the floors, but the stairs weren't an issue for our guests.

s venue to anyone planning a wedding party in Kansas City.

. It isn’t the most suitable for older/handicap guests, there are stairs, but worked our well for us! Such a lovely hidden gem!

gatherings.

omments about our beautiful venue, and it’s inspired a few friends to use it in the future. Highly recommend!

ed every request. Thank you, Steve, for making our special day absolutely perfect!

everything you may need to set up for a wonderful reception. His sound system is superb and the venue just gorgeous. It takes so little to make this **gem** shine! Everyone that attended LOVED IT and we love Steve!

will definitely be back!

but Steve and his staff/his other vendor recommendations were what made our day special. Highly recommend checking them out!

endors were also amazing to work with. We had no issues whatsoever. Highly recommend them.

ke our daughter's wedding day everything she wanted it to be! Can't recommend this venue enough!

ucated within the event industry. The space itself surpassed our expectations. Visually, the venue is especially stunning in the evening. The exposed brick, cement floors and beautiful fireplace really elevate the place. Having the opportunity to utilize both floors helped separate the evening's events while still feeling like we were in an intimate venue. The reasonable rental fee was also a HUGE incentive compared to other traditional venues in the metro. We were so happy with how our reception turned out! Steve's attention to detail and reliability truly made our planning process easy and hiccup free.

a great place for that minimalist bride as it’s got a lot of natural decor and ambiance to it. I would definitely recommend 10/10!!

outstanding. If we had it to do over again, we would not go anyplace else or do anything differently.

anything up for decorations because it is so lovely we didn't want to cover any of the gorgeous stone! We loved it and were so happy with how everything turned out!

d easy to customize decorations and set up, and prices are reasonable. Owner is very upfront and clear about what is expected of all parties and he was so absolutely patient with us. Fantastic location near several nice hotels for friends and family as well as food and games. Thanks for a great wedding, Cellar222!

onds quickly to texts, emails, and really helps get all your needs met. He was so helpful on the day of the event and made sure everything was just how we wanted it. It was such a memorable rehearsal dinner and Steve and his crew helped so much to make this happen. I would highly recommend this venue for your next event! Thank you Steve for providing us with the best possible evening to give to our son and his beautiful new bride! They loved the atmosphere you've created at Cellar 222, and were so blessed and touched by the evening!

s due to covid and having a baby... We were still blown away by Cellar 222. Our event went absolutely perfectly. Steve is so helpful and relaxed. He accommodated our date changes and exceeded our expectations with everything!! I couldn't recommend this place more! You will not regret it if you book with Steve at Cellar 222!!

ly someone you can trust. No surprises. I am so glad we had our special day at Cellar 222! You will not be disappointed!

place). I received tons of complements on the venue and how awesome it was! Also, definitely go with their preferred list catering company, Above and Beyond, they were so amazing and great food!! Really happy and grateful to have had my wedding there! :)

I would highly recommend Cellar 222 to everyone! Thank you so much Steve! You are awesome! :)

big day. Thank you so much Steve!

special day was more than special and words cannot describe the thankfulness we have for you and your incredible space!!!

was always available by email or phone with questions. It was a magical unforgettable experience. Cellar 222 superb all around!

menting how beautiful the venue was. The owner, Steve is hands down so amazing to work with. We had an issue with another venue (we had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic and our old venue would not postpone or refund us & so we backed out of our old venue contract even though we lost money) when we found Cellar222 and met Steve he was so kind to us, he heard our story and discounted us for all the issues we had endured. Out of the kindness of his heart just took money off because he’s a great guy. He is very down to earth and calm, exactly the kinda personality you’re looking for when it comes to wedding planning! He made our entire process easy. The venue itself is so beautiful, i cannot say enough positive things about this place. The bridal suite was gorgeous, it allows for some beautiful photos! Plenty of room for food, cake, dancing, photo booth, we had it all! The perfect place for an intimate wedding. We even left behind a gift and Steve kept it safe for us and offered to drive it to us! I literally have nothing negative to say about our experience, it was simply perfect.

rough the covid situation. He gave us fantastic recommendations for catering, bartending, linens...pretty much everything. It was seamless! Steve, thank you so much for helping us put on an unforgettable rehearsal dinner for our kids!

uture events I have. My guest loved the space and two levels really helped with social distancing. I wish I could give 10 stars, if you are looking for a venue look no further Cellar222 is perfect!

in an hour. My husband and I were the only ones handling all the planning so we didn’t really know what to do and it helped knowing we could ask him any questions and get his input. We had some confusion with our bartenders (completely on my end) and Steven was willing to help with that situation as well. The venue is such a beautiful place that we didn’t feel the need to have any extra decorations. I loved that we had two different levels for the day. We held our ceremony and dinner downstairs and then moved everyone upstairs for the reception and dancing. We had around 90 people show up and there was plenty of room for everyone.

n we needed and made everything stress free for us. The vendors working with this venue are also all extremely competent and professional. I recommend this venue 100%!

ther pros to list about this venue: - little decor is needed. This venue is absolutely stunning and requires very little decoration - venue layout was perfect. We loved having both the upstairs and downstairs. This slowed our wedding to feel so intimate. Instead of large halls that can feel huge we were able to have an eating space and dancing space that both felt intimate and friendly. Additionally, this venue is flexible so you can make the set up however you want. -given that we used the downstairs for eating and upstairs for dancing, it was so great that we could clean up and get items out to the cars while people were upstairs dancing. This way no one even noticed the clean up! -affordable! -easy parking which is hard to find in the crossroads I cannot say it enough, I loved this venue: the staff, the layout, the vibe, and the location. Perfect!

d helping us get our vendors for the wedding. There is plenty of parking for guests and security to keep you and your guests safe. We were able to bring our dogs and include them in our special day which was great as they are our children. He was very welcoming to everyone and helpful the day of the wedding. Definitely a place for the laid back couple that is looking for natural elegance that the building and the city have to offer.

t! Steve is friendly, flexible, and very accommodating. Location is also great as it is central to the KC metro. I would 100% recommend this venue to anyone!

e in downtown KC. The bridal suite is cute and big enough for me and my 5 bridesmaids to get ready in and have our photos done. The ceremony and dinner were held downstairs, you are able to use real candles, which we loved. He has table and chairs for you to use. Great speaker system for the DJ. Steve is very accommodating and gives you suggestions for vendors you may need. We received so many compliments on the venue and how pretty it was for our intimate wedding of about 90-100 guest.

ntimate. Would recommend them to any couple time and time again. Also, price for location is top notch. You will not find a better venue in this price range in the city.

very quick to answer texts, calls, and emails. When we originally had to move our date he was very helpful in finding us a new date! We were able to visit several times to help make wedding decor decisions. This is a great place for any couple to get married!!!

reception perfectly. We planned our wedding from out of state and it was easy because Steve was more than helpful for all our planning needs. He responds quickly to emails, was available for phone calls, and recommended excellent vendors he has a good relationship with (our caterer was Brancato’s for taco buffet & Top Shelf Bartending for alcohol). Most importantly, we were a couple getting married during the time of Covid. Our original wedding date was not possible possible due to social distancing rules. Steve was flexible and understanding of the situation. We were able to change our date and still have a wonderful wedding at Cellar 222.

great to work with. He promised a stress free event and he certainly delivered. Most importantly the price to rent his venue was very reasonable. I’m very happy I chose Cellar 222 Catherine

easonably priced. This is a great venue for any event.

venue is absolutely beautiful and you could easily get by with minimal decorations because the space is gorgeous on its own. The two levels make it perfect for having the ceremony and reception at the same location. There is a great space for the bridal party to get ready in and makes a great setting for pictures. Our guests raved about the venue. I highly recommend Cellar 222 for any event!

autiful. The location and easy access was perfect for our out of town guests to get to. The setup of having 2 levels to use was so amazing. Steve was so great to work with and was very helpful with suggestions along the way. My wedding was such a special day and the energy in the room was so spectacular! I have had several friends tell me it was the best wedding they have ever been to!! Thank you to Cellar 222 for allowing us to use your space to begin our life together as husband and wife!

added bonus, it practically decorated itself. Plus you're able to hire on your own vendors, and that kind of flexibility is a huge plus. My husband and I had an amazing time. My family and friends had an amazing time. I really could not have asked for more! Thank you Steve and Cellar 222!!

ail hour, dinner and dancing. It was the perfect place for everything. The brides area to get ready was lovely and had plenty of room. I would absolutely recommend Cellar 222 for a stress free wedding venue!

ut when we had problems with our food vendor he was very supportive and help me out ! Thanks Steve

ing he wouldn’t do if asked. The Venue was perfect! Would highly recommend Cellar 222!!

ke the night seamless! Every conversation we had up to the event was very-easy going and provided a stress-free experience! We would absolutely use this venue again! Thank you!

d the help we received from the proprietor, Steve. His assistance from the start to the end was like that of a wedding planner. I would highly recommend this place for your special event.
