The Gallery Event Space

g, bar, tables, linens, etc, and in a package that includes tax and gratuity. We also appreciated how responsive and communicative our point of contact was. We postponed our wedding from 2021 to 2022 due to the pandemic and while they were very flexible about that, trying to communicate with the person that took over during the pandemic was like pulling teeth. That main point of contact was reinstated again at the end of 2021 and we were very happy initially but sometime just around 3 months before the wedding it seemed like all communication broke down. In March 2022 for example we absolutely could not get an answer to a couple simple, but relevant, questions for two entire weeks (after 6 total attempts to contact them over email, web portal and text message - which was left on "read" for 3 days). They said there had been a problem with their email system. Funny thing is another vendor of ours also had an email problem just a month later, and they posted about it on Instagram and also emailed their clients letting them know, which only highlighted how badly this issue was handled by the Gallery. Despite being managed by a larger company, it seems like they have no sort of coverage for their people. You are assigned one person and that's the only contact you have. If they're out of office (not that you'd know, since they never use OOO automatic replies) or busy with another event, there's not a second person to at least take two seconds to say something like "we'll look into that and get back to you". It seems so unprofessional and not in line with the expectations they set. We had scheduled our final walkthrough 3 months ahead of time, because it's an appointment in the middle of the day during the week so we both had to fit it with our busy work schedules. Just a week before the appointment we got an automatic email notification that it had been changed to a completely different day and time. I had to reach out myself saying that new date didn't work for us. No explanation was given about why the appointment was changed, and we were appalled that they would change it without FIRST contacting us, the client! More details: - On the day of there was no one from the venue there when the groom arrived at the scheduled time, thankfully our coordinator was able to reach someone over the phone to unlock the door. The point of contact person eventually came in about an hour later. She barely acknowledged either of us at any point. - There was also no one available at the rehearsal, so again we had to track someone down to validate parking for our guests. - The food was not as good as what we had been served at the tasting, and it was fine, but again, not at all in line with the expectations set. - They were supposed to have 100 signature drinks placed on the way to the cocktail room as guests left the ceremony, but only a few were placed there in time. By the time people realized the drinks were sitting outside the room (the Kill Devil Club) most of the ice in them had melted. As a side note, the bartender Ruben was absolutely great, he was fun, attentive, and it seems like he ended up taking on some responsibility that we would have expected from someone else at the venue.

l food. It was everything we could have wanted and more!

for a good-size crowd and had the event well-staffed. The view looking toward the P&L District and T-Mobile Center was wonderful. The food at our second wedding was not as good as the first one, and that's the only mild criticism I would have. I think part of that is the crowd was significantly bigger so they had to serve a lot more meals. But overall the staff is great to work with and the venue very good.

thought we wouldn't get to have one. The space is gorgeous and in a prime location. Jessica is easy to work with and so flexible! We are so thankful to have many memories in this space.

who was not only equally wonderful, but also empathetic and incredibly accommodating. Back in June we made the decision to move our wedding venue from the Gallery to an outdoor venue. Instead of taking our deposits and telling us we were out of luck (which they easily could have done) Jessica and the Gallery instead kindly offered to use our deposit to host our rehearsal dinner. The Gallery actually shut down 14th street so that we could host our rehearsal dinner outside, which turned out to be an amazingly cool event. The food was fantastic, and Jessica coordinated the event as a true professional. I cannot praise McCall, Jessica, and the Gallery enough for the way in which they handled an incredibly difficult situation (both emotionally and financially). They went out of their way to accommodate us and host an unforgettable evening. If I could give them 10 stars I would. They saved me from an extreme amount of stress for which I am forever grateful. They will not disappoint!"

wer & Light employees. First was McCall, then Jessica and Kendall. Every single one of them was so professional and helpful. Despite going through a very hard time of their own, managing a large venue during a time when large events aren't always an option, they were flexible, understanding, responsive and all around AMAZING to work with. When we had a big structure we were worried about setting up the morning of the event, they let us store it in their back room so we didn't have to stress about it. When at the last minute we asked to spread things out more to provide a safer environment, they turned around a new seating chart right away had the linens ordered ASAP. And when we needed to come by early in the morning to pick things up or drop things off, they made it work so someone would be there on OUR schedule, making it so easy. All around loved the space, loved the food and loved the people!

had a last minute change the day before our wedding which they happily helped me with. I could not recommend this space more, it is beautiful, great downtown location, affordable and everything you could want in a wedding venue. My guests cannot stop talking about how much they loved the venue, food and the drinks. I was also impressed with the bartender serving us that night. She was friendly, fast and remembered all of our guests drinks. My guests could not stop raving about her and it made a special night even better. I am so glad we chose this venue and am very thankful for all the staff that made our night flawless and unforgettable!

awesome location of the venue. It was beautiful and I highly recommend the Gallery event space!

long with the kill devil club for happy hour and it was outstanding. The gallery’s large size ensured that we could follow social distancing with our number of guests. The gallery also went above and beyond to ensure that our guests were safe. I could not recommend this venue enough!

to see how this space transforms for a romantic event. I've had the pleasure of working with McCall and can say that her love of weddings and keen eye for detail is only surpassed by her drive to offer the best experience possible. She will stop at nothing to ensure complete customer satisfaction...which spans from the time you meet her until after you say your last goodbye at the event. You will not be disappointed.

l hour at the Kill Devil Club and then into the reception. McCall and her team were so great to work with. She was there to answer any question I had and went above and beyond to make our day perfect. We had a specific idea for what we wanted for our menu and they were able to accommodate all of our requests! The food was amazing we received so many compliments! I cannot say enough good things about The Gallery!

0) and has the best location in the heart of downtown Kansas City. More importantly, you will work with the BEST event team at the Gallery. The team is not only knowledgeable but they go above and beyond to make sure your day is everything you envision. Special shout-out to McCall, who is the dedicated events coordinator for the space! She was nothing short of amazing to work with. My husband and I were planning our wedding from out of town, and McCall made our planning such a breeze. She is professional, prompt in her responses, has a real eye for event design, and unbelievably accommodating. Any weekend we were in town and wanted to see the space, or bring our other vendors by to see the space, she would make it happen for us. She was also incredibly thorough, and if she didn’t have the answer to our question that second, you could be certain we would hear from her within 24 hours. Simply put, we couldn’t have been in better hands while planning our wedding. It has been a month since our big day and we are still getting compliments from family and friends! We could not recommend the Gallery more, and hope we are lucky enough to attend many more weddings of family and friends at the Gallery in the future!

ectations. McCall made this all happen; she was prompt in her responses, was readily available and gave great advice to make the day smooth. Our guests are still raving about how beautiful the venue was, how delicious the food was and how great the service was. We are SO glad we chose this venue for our wedding and would HIGHLY recommend it!!!

s we had to have and I think it made everything flow so nicely throughout the evening. Not only does the Gallery handle almost everything, they have wonderful relationships with other vendors who work seamlessly together. They had a working relationship with our florist (Blue Bouquet) and our final stages planner (Thirty One Thirty Events) which made it so easy. Finally McCall is the BEST to work with. She is responsive, makes great recommendations and kept our planning on track. Thank you!

etail was left hanging. We met with their chef for a food tasting and really loved everything we tasted. We received lots of compliments from our guests about the quality of the food and the overall atmosphere of the space. The location in Power & Light is perfect. It provides a beautiful after-dark setting and is great for those who want to after-party in Power & Light. The Gallery staff was flawless right down to the servers. We are extremely happy.

, beautiful and rare space for a group over 250. *All areas have fantastic views of beautifully lit city buildings seen from the interior and roomy balcony. *Quality of food was fantastic and matched the sample tasting. Nice variety of food to choose from. Space comes with a very helpful planner who was always response and a pleasure to work with!!!!

edding I highly recommend the Gallery!

he patio. It's conveniently located next to the streetcar, which made it easy for our guests to find the space. McCall and her team are phenomenal at their jobs- we had the most perfect day! They really did help create our dream wedding. Oh and the food was delicious! I cannot recommend them more!

t in helping us through the process and decision making. She even checked in with us during the reception to make sure the lights were good, if we need a drink, etc. The location is perfect to showcase KC, especially if you have a lot of out of town guests like we did!

t this venue....all inclusive! Most venues you have to pay a rental fee just to have it there, this venue you don’t so keep that in mind. Most venues you have to think a lot about the extras, this venue you don’t. It’s a per person count. We did the silver package and were very happy with it! The food is soooo good!! We are foodies and we not going to go anywhere that didn’t have top notch food. This venue comes with your bartenders, servers, a venue coordinator, chairs, tables, linens, cutlery...down to champagne glasses, and an extremely cool cocktail hour in the kill devil club! Also did I mention the gallery has a beautiful balcony with a great view? I wanted to be able to go outdoors but not be somewhere that outside was the only option (in case it rained) so this place was perfect! I could go on and on. McCall, the coordinator at the Gallery is very organized and there when you need her! Everything was perfect on my wedding day and I wouldn’t have had it anywhere else. Do yourself a favor and go tour this place if you are considering. Also follow the gallery on Instagram and Facebook! They post a ton of photos regularly. My day was perfect and I planned it in 4 months. I would recommend The Gallery to anyone. It’s hands down the best wedding venue in KC.

ts their clients, vendors, and staff. I have worked with McCall (The GM) at several weddings and she goes above and beyond for all her clients. Her attitude is so amazing it rubs off on everyone around her, which means her staff is just as amazing. This venue also has catering and bar on sight! That means you do not need to look for those vendors once you book this venue. They take of everything for you.

g together seamlessly. My favorite part was their “First Look” in the foyer that I watched from the rooftop patio... a close second was their father/daughter dance under the chandelier and pink ceiling lights. Thank you for the gift of such a wonderful day. I highly recommend The Gallery for your special day!

uch praise that it was the best wedding ever and I think that is mostly in part of The Gallery. A special shout out to McCall who did a lot of the behind the scene work ahead of time to make sure our day ran as smoothly as possible. Book your wedding here - you absolutely will not regret it!

ruly the best night of our lives and The Gallery and their team was a huge part of that. I would 1,000% recommend the Gallery as a venue to anybody getting married.
