Sumner Center is a new venue in historic downtown Wellington, Kansas, with an industrial-meets-mid-century-modern vibe, and capacity for up to 500 wedding guests. Most couples start their venue search thinking they only have two options: barn or ballroom. But there's a third option — and it's the one a lot of couples didn't know existed until they found it.
Services Offered
Here's what's included at Sumner Center — no inquiry required:
Round tables and chairs, set up and broken down for you

PA system, projection, and high-speed WiFi
Accent lighting built in
Professional event security

There are no hay bales, no barn doors, and no guessing what's included in the wedding package. Just a clean, beautiful, well-equipped space that can be styled to match exactly what you're envisioning — softened with art, fabric, and flowers, or left to speak for itself. If you've been scrolling through venues and feeling like nothing fits, this might be the one worth a closer look. You might also find that the Sumner Center has a second location, the Spanish Revival-style Edwin Smith House (listed on the National Register of Historic Places), a block and a half away, available as an outdoor venue as well as for engagement photos.
