Venues in Wichita and Surrounding areas!

We took a vacation from our blog series last week, but we are back and close to the end of the series! We have been able to feature several vendors and past brides who have talked about some of the important elements that go into the planning of a wedding celebration.

Although many have already chosen their venues, we have fall brides, 2016 brides and companies trying to determine the best venue for their celebration. We thought we would compile a list of venues in Wichita and the surrounding areas that could host your party.

The list is written in no particular order, but will hopefully give you more options to think of while you are choosing the best one for you! Make sure you read to the bottom to read tips on choosing a venue.

Wedding Bliss

The wedding of Amber and Pat could not have been more beautiful or perfect. With the weather looming over the outdoor wedding, nerves were on edge, but after many prayers, the ceremony went on without a drop of rain. The cloud cover made the temperature perfect and allowed the guests to see the bride and groom without squinting.

After the ceremony the guests headed to Abode Venue for a cocktail hour while the wedding party and families took pictures. All still without any rain! The guests greeted the wedding party with bubbles as they made their grand entrance and headed straight into cutting the cake! Amber and Pat were ready to get the celebration started after dinner and first dances. DJ; Scott Ward, with Accent Mobile Music had the guests dancing the night away under the chandelier and lighted drapes! The perfect wedding for an amazing couple. We were so glad to have been a part of their wedding day.

Wedding Colors: Lime Green, Black and White
