This was the best venue I've ever been to! Amazing staff! Austin, Melissa, and Abby were so helpful! Best staff and best/easiest all in one experience! My daughter and her now husband agree this place was a dream! If you're getting married, check this place out! We loved it!

I'm not a Brim Bride, but I'm a wedding photographer who has personally experienced the Brim and its staff in many different scenarios. I can not say enough good things about this venue, its staff, or Aaron & Kelsie. Not only is the venue such a classic, timeless, and beautiful venue, but the staff ALWAYS goes above and beyond for their couples. Their stance on marriage and their desire to be affordable for ALL budgets is a rarity in this industry and it's so refreshing to see. They are not only a wedding venue, but they INVEST in their couples, even in those that do not get married at The Brim. From those that are considering marriage, to those that are seasoned in their marriage, they have something for all and truly invest in every season of a couple's life. This kind of servant's heart is evident in everything that they do at The Brim. Aaron & Kelsie's dedication to build up this type of mindset around marriage and the continuous way that they show love for and serve their couples is something to be admired and says a lot about the mission behind The Brim. 10000% recommend this venue every chance I get because it's truly a gem in Kansas City and an experience that I think every couple deserves!

We love The Brim and the staff here! We got married here a few years ago and have come back to visit a few times, including Snowed In at the Brim. Such a lovely property and atmosphere! ❤️🥂

We got married May 5, 2023. The Brim made our special day a magical one. From the infrastructure, to the minimalistic interior design, to the location, everything was perfect. Not to mention Kelsie and her team! Customer service was top notch.Thank you Kelsie, for stepping up to the plate when some of the folks in our wedding planning team dropped the ball, even though we did not hire you for that specifically. With the Brim staff, you really get a sense that they strive to make your day memorable and to minimize stress as much as possible.I am recommending them left and right to everyone that I know who is getting married. Thank you so much for such stellar venue and service!

We can’t say enough good things about the Brim! It is absolutely gorgeous any time of year. They are so knowledgeable and accommodating and make your dreams a reality. You can tell weddings are marriages are their expertise! They anticipated and thought of details we wouldn’t have even thought about. My wedding planning went so incredibly smooth thanks to my coordinator provided by the Brim! We love how they pour into your marriage and the future plans they have for the property so you can continue to enjoy and relish your special place as you grow with your spouse. 10/10 recommended, we wouldn’t have changed a thing.

Before booking our reception, I checked out every venue in the KC metro. The Brim was absolutely the best choice! We initially did not include coordination, but changed our minds and I am so glad we did. Kathy and her team made my decorating dreams come true and made sure everything ran smoothly with vendors and the night's schedule. Before our reception, Kelsie (owner) & Kathy (coordinator) had great communication with me and made sure all bases were covered. The night of, Kathy was so attentive and made sure we had a great time. This venue offers so many affordable options (and even free ceremonies) for every kind of couple looking to celebrate their marriage. Not only was I impressed with the brand new reception space that is absolutely beautiful, I loved knowing that our money was put towards a great place that values marriage and an even better family who makes it all happen! I am so grateful for The Brim and highly recommend them.

The Brim went above and beyond to make our wedding day perfect. The facilities are gorgeous, extremely reasonably priced, incredible open vendor policy, and owners/ staff were available every step of the way. I am so glad we made the decision to have our wedding here and I can not recommend this venue enough.

There are not words to describe the majesty behind this place. Every part of the Brim was carefully thought about to create the perfect wedding space for couples to start the next adventure in life. The staff is absolutely exceptional, and I truly cannot express that enough. So many details go into the day and the Brim staff is hard at work thinking about the small things that had never crossed my mine. These small touches are what set the Brim aside from any other venue out there. I don’t know how to express the gratitude I hold for all this place has given me. Brim, thank you for everything! 🧡

We absolutely LOVED The Brim. After touring the venue, we were so excited to have our wedding day here and knew it was the perfect venue for us. The chapel is BEAUTIFUl and so elegant and the team at the Brim is seriously the best. My wedding day went so smoothly because of them. I would definitely recommending adding on the day of coordinator to your package with the Brim, as Kelsie made the day go so easily and smoothly and eliminated any stress that I could have had. The chapel bell was so fun for us to ring before our sparkler exit, and the set up of the venue was so beautiful. They really have everything that you need for a beautiful wedding. My husband and I would not change a thing about our wedding day, and we are so grateful for the team at the Brim for making our day truly the best ever. The Brim is such a beautiful, classy and elegant place to get married whether you have 30 people or 150 people in attendance. I highly recommend booking The Brim! Their team is incredible and so kind and you will have the best time planning your wedding there.

Words cannot even begin to describe how grateful my husband and I are for Kelsi and Aaron. They are two of the most kind human beings we have ever met, and they both went above and beyond to make our day perfect. The Brim is hands down the perfect venue if you’re looking for a gorgeous, intimate wedding. I don’t have a single thing I’d change about our wedding day, and we owe that to Kelsi and Aaron. Thank you both so much for the perfect venue and the most perfect wedding day!

The Brim helped to make all of our wedding dreams come true! Kelsie is incredible at coordinating and making sure you’ve thought through everything. You can tell that while the wedding they help to create is stunning, they understand what matters most is the marriage, and I love that. The environment at The Brim is BEAUTIFUL and perfect for a dreamy wedding! I can’t recommend this venue enough!

My husband and I were married here this February. The Brim is an amazing beautiful place to get married. It is the perfect price and the owners are AMAZING to work with. Kelsie was always so quick to answer any questions I had. She was also a HUGE help the day of. My favorite part was we felt we didn’t need to decorate much either. The chapel has its own charm and character that we just brought a few things. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to marry my best friend.
