I really loved the event space! It was so open and the whole staff was easy to work with and get in touch with whenever I had a question. I had many compliments from my guests that it was an elegant space and they will be referring to them late...
r on. I would recommend them 100%.
I have both my ceremony and reception here and loved it! Britney is great to work with. She answers all of your questions and will even give advice of set up. The rest of the staff is also kind and helpful. The venue itself is stunning. They wi...
ll even change the lights to match your wedding colors! I highly recommend this place.
There are so many wonderful things to say about The Cotillion! Britney was amazing with every aspect of my wedding and reception. The pricing is affordable, the venue is beautiful and very diverse. Perfect for any event. Loved that my DJ didn’t...
need to bring equipment in and the special lighting they have was able to change the mood at a split second. It was everything I could have ever hoped for. Only downfall we experienced is we ran out of my favorite liquor because we were having so much fun!
This venue was a great place . The staff was amazing expecially Brittany . It was very smooth going and I didn't have to worry about anything . I forgot my aisle runner which was very important to me and she saved it for me until I was back fro...
m my honeymoon . Thanks again to the cotillion and Brittany for the best venue !
We are so glad we chose to have our wedding reception at The Cotillion Blue Springs! The venue manager, Britney, was a big reason we chose The Cotillion. She was so welcoming and did a wonderful job of anticipating the information that we would...
want to know when we toured the venue. After we booked, the great service continued. Any time we had a question or needed anything at all, it was attended to quickly and met or exceeded our expectations. As promised, the tables, chairs, and linens were set up when we came to decorate the venue, which was a HUGE plus over other a few other venues. We had many compliments on how nice the venue was: it’s classy, yet not pretentious. The venue has developed great relationships with several vendors in the area, so we did very little coordinating between vendors and the venue. I’d recommend taking advantage of the discounted packages you can get with Elite Sounds (DJ/Sound System). Their sound equipment and down-lighting are installed in the venue and are great quality. Speeches, announcements, and hours of dancing went off without a hitch! In sum, The Cotillion Blue Springs is a wonderful venue with a fabulous manager who is incredibly knowledgeable about all aspects of the event management business. When you choose The Cotillion as your venue, you will not be disappointed!
From the moment we walked into The Cotillion, we knew that's where we wanted to hold our reception. The space was perfect! We had nearly 250 guests and it felt very spacious. ( I was nervous about it being crowded) Britney was great! She was so...
helpful and was able to answer all of our questions. Definitely check out The Cotillion as you are looking for venue options!
My wedding date: June 2016. Britney was very helpful. She answered all of my questions no matter big or small. She was on the premises on my wedding day which made me feel less stressed knowing she was close by if I had a question, concern or n...
eeded assistance with something. When I changed my reception layout from the original design she was more than willing to accommodate and made it work. I had my ceremony at the venue as well. She set up black drapery dividing the ceremony and reception areas and it looked very nice and professional. It became really hot and humid that day, so Britney made sure the temperature controls inside the venue were comfortable for everyone. When I first saw the venue while I was deciding on a location, The Cotillion had the decor style and atmosphere that I was looking for. It was clean, modern and had adequate space to accommodate all my guests. I would definitely recommend The Cotillion for any event!
The Cottilion was a great venue for our reception. It was close to where our ceremony was and the space is great to work with. The staff was very helpful in explaining the different options for placement of tables, cake table etc. Our guests co...
mplimented on the space and ample parking as well. Overall it was a great setting for our wedding!
Britney and the Cotillion was amazing! Everyone was incredibly friendly, their recommendations for caterers etc were spot on and I absolutely loved that you could have back drop lights along the wall that can go along with your colors! They hel...
ped set up and made sure everything was perfect before our reception started. Every detail was tended to and I could not be happier!
I recently got married in March 2016. The overall experience with this venue was amazing! As most brides do, I changed my mind hundreds of times, but Britney never acted bothered or put out when I would change times, setup, etc. She recently ha...
d a baby, but still managed to meet with me numerous times which I thought really showed her dedication to making our day perfect! Thank you for everything!
My husband and I used this venue for our December reception. For our first visit, the manager was very helpful and accommodating. After we signed our contract, it went downhill from there. She was really not very friendly or helpful anymore. Th...
e venue had a Christmas tree that was decorated in colors that didn't match our color scheme and the manager told us they would take off the decorations so we could use our own. They were still up when my grandmother got to the venue to set up and we ended up having to leave them up because she didn't have the time to take it all down. We also had a slideshow to play at the reception. We ended up having some technical difficulties and one of our guests ran all the way to his house to get his computer so we could play the video. While my dad was trying to get it to play, no staff members offered to help at all. If anything, they acted annoyed and irritated with my dad. I was also not impressed with the way the staff treated us or our guests. The manager never said congratulations or anything to us. The first thing she said to me when we arrived at the venue for the reception was "we need to square up on money". I totally understand wanting to square up on money. However, the money was not overdue and as much money as we were paying, it would have been nice to at least get a congratulations or something. At the end of the evening when my family was taking everything down, several staff members were very unfriendly to members of my family, including my mom. The venue is beautiful and affordable, but if I had the chance to do it over again, I would choose a different venue. The staff did not make it feel like a very special evening. I was overall disappointed with the way my guests and family were treated.
Response from the Vendor on 09/17/2015
Hello,
I appreciate you hosting your event at The Cotillion and taking time out of your schedule to write us a review. I am sorry to hear that we did not provide you the experience you were looking for on your wedding day. All of the staff at ...
The Cotillion strives to provide a positive experience and customer service to not only our couples, but their wedding guests as well. It is our standard policy for balances to be due 30 days prior to an event. We are happy to provide allowances in certain cases if the final balance needs to be paid closer to the event time, but we would like to take care of them before everything begins so that we don't have to interrupt you with your guests. If there was any misunderstanding on our part, we apologize. In the event If you would like to contact me personally to discuss our shortfalls, I would be more than happy to discuss them with you.
I cannot say enough about The Cotillion! Britney is very easy to work with and the venue was perfect for my daughter's wedding reception. We received so many comments about how awesome the reception was. Great location, plenty of space for 15...
0 guests. It was so nice to have the table cloths provided. We were expecting a friend to turn on the candles for us when they arrived before the guests, but the candles were already light when they got there. What a special touch. Just another example of how Britney goes above and beyond to help make the event special.
I would highly recommend The Cotillion!!!
Great place...very pretty as is, doesn't need much decor to make look beautiful! Only downside to this place where it gets you in price is having to use their alcohol. Very pricey. At least you can bring in your own caterer for food, which save...
s money. I'd recommend Hyvee food and cake!
My experience with The Cotillion was nothing short of amazing. The venue is gorgeous, spacious, and affordable. Britney was accommodating and professional. She was so easy to work with. I highly recommend The Cotillion.
It was down to 2 spots I loved The Cotillion and my now husband liked another place because it was closer to the church we were getting married at. I won! The Cotillion had the ambience that I wanted for my reception, I had my purple lights as ...
the backdrop. I used their photobooth and the cash bar. Brittiny is a great service to The Cotillion she was very flexible with us and even helped set up and take down. Her service made us choosing The Cotillion very easy. Our wedding date Aug 23, 2014. Thanks so much.
I loved this place and so did my now husband! They help get everything just right! And my night was so special. The bartenders we very nice and Brittany was the best!
Working with the cotillion was a great experienece. All of our guests said we had a very fun wedding. I wouldnt change my wedding day for anything!
I dragged my poor fiance all around Kansas City looking for the perfect venue. We looked at over 20 venues in total. The Cotillion was our last and our favorite. It was an incredible value, but worth so much more. The inside of the event sp...
ace is romantic and looked spectacular. You will not find a better venue in that price range. The staff at the Cotillion was so helpful up to and the day of the wedding. I couldn't have done it without them!
Britney did an amazing job making sure all of our needs were met for the evening. Everything went off without a hitch and we definitely will recommend their location to anyone we know who is planning to get married in this area.
We would no...
t have changed a single thing in the entire night, except maybe gone with the photo booth but that was a personal budget issue not a Cotillion issue. Amazing Venue.
Brittney was very easy to work with and did a great job answering any questions we had. She made our reception run very smoothly and we would recommend The Cotillion to anyone!
The venue is simple, yet beautiful. The staff is accommodating and easy to work with. Working with The Cotillion was an excellent experience from beginning to end! They really helped to make our Wedding Day the best it could be!
I researched many, many venues before settling on The Cotillion. The only other venues in this price range were in weird locations and had old, outdated decor. The Cotillion is sleek and elegant and surprising! When I read it was in Blue Spring...
s, I pictured Vesper Hall. But walking in is spectacular. The chandeliers, black accents, and beautiful bar are striking. It was the perfect space to craft the look I wanted for my reception. Brittany, the owner, was so nice, helpful, and knowledgeable. I was an annoying bride who kept changing my mind on the bar options and was constantly emailing her questions. I received prompt replies from Brittany, often within an hour or immediately the next day. She has so much experience with weddings and gave the best advice. She was also amazing during our final walk-through and design and even the day of when setting up. She stayed there for the whole reception and kept my mom updated and informed about behind-the-scenes happenings. My dog even came to say hi to us and she not only allowed it, but even helped put a princess dress on her! I would highly, highly recommend The Cotillion for any reception. The venue also does wedding ceremonies.
I worked with Britney at The Cotillion for over a year. She was easy to work with and willing to meet with me almost any time that worked for me. I had a great experience. The site was beautiful and needed little decoration.
I had my reception at the Cotillion and it was amazing! Brittany worked with us every step of the way and was very helpful. We had ample time to set up for the wedding, and everything looked great when we arrived for our reception. I would high...

Our reception at the Cotillion went off perfectly. We had wonderful service, excellent décor, a great bar, and a fantastic space for everyone to enjoy. I would recommend the Cotillion in Blue Springs to anyone wanting to have a reception for up...

Our wedding was June 8, 2013. We looked at a lot of different venues before finding The Cotillion. The first time my husband and I went to look at it we knew that it was perfect for our reception. Along the way, Britney was a great help! She he...
lped make the planning process less stressful. Whenever we had a question, she was very thorough in answering them and if she wasn't available, she was very prompt to return our calls (even on her vacation). We had around 260 guests at our reception and it accommodated for all of ours and our guests needs. We had a lot of guests tell us how beautiful the reception was and how beautiful The Cotillion is. There is not one bad thing that I could say about this place! It was truly the best reception I could have asked for! I would recommend it to everyone! :)
My husband and I had a our wedding reception at the Cotillion in April 2013. It is a beautiful place. We fell in love with the black pillars and the chandeliers. We paid extra for up lighting on the walls and were able to customize to our color...
s. We had more than enough space for our nearly 200 guests. Britney was great to work with. She always answered any questions we had quickly. When the bridal party arrived for set up, the tables, chairs, and table clothes were all set up like we discussed so we were able to add our decorations and it didn't take long at all. We loved that we were able to bring in our own caterer. The reception ran smoothly. The day was perfect and we would definitely recommend the Cotillion!
We really enjoyed our reception at The Cotillion. We had 250 guests and there was plenty of space around tables, on the dance floor, and in the cocktail area to keep everyone comfortable. The service was great and the staff was easy to work wit...
h. I would really encourage brides to use the photo booth, our guests had so much fun in it and we love the photo book we received at the end of the night. Also, the TV's around the venue provide a great way to share a slideshow with the guests. The lighting in the venue creates a very romantic and cozy feel. I loved this venue, It makes a great place for a reception!
We couldn't have choosen a better venue for our wedding on May 5th 2013! Everthing was perfect! Britney, the owner was always willing to meet with us, answer any questions I had, and was flexible with us changing our date! We had both the cerem...
ony and the reception at the Cotillion. While planning we knew that we would have to move/add a few tables and move chairs after the ceremony. Everything must have been done quickly and flawlessly because I can't even remember any moving of tables or chairs and the best part was, I didn't have to worry about it!. We have gotten so many compliments from our guests on how great the space was! We couldn't have chosen a better venue for our special day!
My wedding was October 20, 2012 with 225 guests. Had plenty of room. It was great that you can bring in your own vendors for the event and not have to use specific resources. The tables were set up and ready to go the day before so I was able ...
to be there to decorate which was a huge relief. The staff was kind and easy to work with. Very affordable.
Great space for our wedding. Elegant backdrop - don't feel like you have to hang up curtains or use chair covers to cover up anything cheap. Flexible seating arrangements and layout. We did apps instead of dinner, and they worked out a floor...
plan that didn't include a buffet or head table to keep our party style flow going. Only complaint is timing: it's a 5 hour contract but we had to be out by midnight even though our wedding wasn't even over by 7 - so we got a little shorted there. Also, they told our caterer what time to pack up the food - which was earlier than the time we agreed on with the caterer and as a result the groom and I didn't get to eat. Other than that, Britney was great to work with, she always responded timely to emails, not fake or cheesy, very professional. We fit 150 guests with room to spare. On a visit we saw it set up for 250-300 but that looked too tight even though it's doable.
We had our reception on Friday October 26th. We had the entire day to set up. Britney and the staff were great and very accomodating. Beautiful place, I call it a diamond in the rough. Our guests could not stop complimenting on how beautifu...

The Cotillion was an amazing venue for our reception. Britney was extremely helpful and worked with every little thing we wanted to happen. She was there everytime we needed to look at something. She answered every questions promptly, and sh...
e was there the entire day/evening to ensure everything went as planned. The space is beautiful and modern and requires little decorations which makes things easier as well. Overall, I could not have been happier with my reception venue!!
Simply beautiful! Any color you choose matches with the room. Fantastic, helpful, easy going staff! Spotless and up to date. We had 260 guests and it wasn't crowded at all. I definitely don't regret having my reception there. I highly recomme...

We just had our wedding reception at the Cotillion on 9/22 and it was PERFECT! We had already planned for some family to arrive early to put out our appetizers and turn on all of our lighted branches and light the candles. When they arrived, t...
he Cotillion staff had already taken care of everything! They were quick to respond to e-mails throughout the process and even allowed us to come in a few weeks before to see if we liked the centerpieces on the tables. They did not have an event Friday night so they let us in at noon to set everything up without any extra charge! They were amazing and I could not have asked for a better place to hold my reception. I would highly recommend this event space to anyone and everyone!
This was a great place to have the wedding receptions! The place is very vercitile
I had my wedding reception at the cotillion and I couldn't have been happier about how everything turned out. The Cotiliion is very neutral and modern so it goes with any decor you could pick. We had around 225 guests and fit in the space perfe...
ctly. Another additional thing I loved was the photo booth that is now available we got it for 5 hrs and the price was a deal compared to getting a photo booth elsewhere. Britney was good with returning any emails in a timely manner and answering any questions I had.
The cotillion is a real nice place to have your wedding or any elegant event! Looks very high class on the inside and the staff can deal with bridezillas! :) no request was unreasonable. I had my ceremony and reception there and they got us dra...
ping across the room to make it look like two separate areas. Not much decor is needed because they have a beautiful stone looking bar and chandlers on ever square of the ceiling. Although my wedding didn't go as planned with some problems with the dj I wouldn't of had it anywhere else. The only complaint is there is no scenery outside for good pictures and it's kind of hard to find for the old folks that don't have a gps. Love the price well worth it!
The Cotillion is beautiful, accommodating, and affordable, especially when compared to similar venues. I had my wedding reception at The Cotillion on June 23, 2012, with 160 guests. We had plenty of room for a fantastic party! Britney was th...
ere every step of the way, answering questions, coordinating vendors on the day of, and offering helpful suggestions. We only had to supply centerpieces, as the venue is so beautiful that other decorations were simply not necessary. As we were able to have any vendors, we were able to stock our own bar through sales and deals. We spent a fraction of our planned budget for beverages! This is the best reception venue I could have ever hoped for, and I highly recommend it to all brides! I highly recommend Blue Springs Hy-Vee Catering in conjunction with The Cotillion!!
After failing to find a reception hall that was both stunning and cost efficient, I struck gold with The Cotillion.
I hardly had to do any decorating, as the entire room is set up for events all of the time. I could not say enough good thi...
ngs about The Cotillion.
The dramatic look of the dropped white ceilings hanging from an industrial type ceiling, the chandeliers, the built in dance floor, the draping and lighting provided, the bartenders (including Britney) were all amazing. Britney was always available for questions by both email and phone and really helped calm down my wedding jitters.
There is plenty of parking available and Britney was on site the entire day of my wedding to direct vendors and guests.
The only downfall is the outside of the building. It looks like a strip mall and I was very skeptical when I drove up for the first time. But once I entered the doors, it turned into my dream reception hall. With my tastes both modern and romantic it was a perfect mix.
I did not get married at this location due to look of the outside of the building and lack of places available outside to take pictures. But it worked wonderfully for my reception.
We celebrated two wedding receptions at The Cotillion, on May 12, 2012 and June 16, 2012. The site is beautiful and easily accomodated our 200 guests comfortably plus photo booth, appetizer and buffet tables,cake and gift tables. The Cotillio...

It is very nice inside, they were helpful and made the day go smooth.
We held our reception at the Cotillion on Feb. 4 of this year and I have to say it was amazing! The floorplan easily sat our 190 guests, photo booth, buffet dinner, dance floor and cake without feeling crowded. The staff was always very helpf...
