Situated in the heart of Kansas City, the Power & Light District stands as a vibrant and captivating setting, offering a perfect backdrop for hosting wedding festivities. With its diverse selection of stylish venues, world-class dining, and entertainment possibilities, Power & Light wedding fun comes easy in a place for celebrating the many cherished wedding moments with family and friends. Whether seeking a chic rehearsal dinner, an illuminate bachelor(ette) party, or both, this dynamic district boasts an array of options that cater to every couple’s engagement season fun.
We took a walk around the Power & Light District to spot out spaces and services that you may wish to include in your wedding journey. Here is our list of wedding-worthy hot spots:
It’s obvious to start with the largest wedding venue in the district: The Gallery Event Space. With seating for up to 400 guests, the clean and modern look of the space allows couples to bring to life any vision they have for their wedding. The floor-to-ceiling windows slide open for a unique cocktail hour experience that overlooks downtown. And you can’t miss the LED ceiling that matches any color – the golden hue is our favorite as it brings a romantic and candlelit feel to the space.
You can view more photos or go see the space in person, just reach out to Meg (she’s the best!) at mmuckey@thegalleryeventspace.com.
Looking for a unique venue for your engagement party or rehearsal dinner? You can stop the search because the Kill Devil Club will be checking all your boxes. Boasting speakeasy vibes with a splash of jazz, the atmosphere of the space sets the tone and eliminates the need of any further decorating. Select a desirable menu, pair it with some classy cocktails, hire a jazz trio to be on the stage, and invite 130 of your nearest and dearest to celebrate with you!
It’s safe to say that what comes to mind when thinking of the Power & Light District is partying. And that’s because there is no other entertainment district in KC that serves up a memorable, fun time quite like P&L. So, when it comes to your bachelor(ette) party and/or the night of your wedding, you don’t want the party to fall flat on its face – making reservations ahead of time will unlock a series of perks for your party. Whether Shark Bar, Mosaic, or PBR Big Sky is your choice, you can receive VIP treatment for you and your guests, including reserved seating, flashy bottle service presentation, a special DJ shoutout from the DJ. You’re getting married for goodness sake, you don’t stand in line at a club, you should be treated like VIP!
Sometimes you need a spot to gather to welcome guests to town, entertain the wedding party, or begin the bach-night festivities. And you can do that right in the heart of downtown at No Other Pub. Complete with 4 bowling lanes, a gaming parlor, social lounge, and a one-of-a-kind sports bar, it’s the perfect spot to keep your guests entertained with a good time.
DISTRICT TAN + POSH KC
Now we know you’re going to want to feel beautiful – so it was important that we added District Tan and Posh KC to this list. Located in Power & Light, both companies offer top-of-the-line services to get you feeling good!
If you are looking for a wedding-day glow, then scheduling a custom spray tan before the bachelor(ette) party, wedding day, or honeymoon will have you looking your best. And close by is Posh KC, a team of incredibly talented stylists that have perfected special occasion hair and makeup. All members of the wedding party are welcome to come enjoy their downtown salon and be beautified for all of the upcoming wedding events.
ENGAGEMENT + WEDDING DAY PHOTOS
This isn’t one specific stop, but we couldn’t help but notice all the amazing photo opportunities throughout the district. If you are looking for some photo inspiration for your engagement photos or wedding party shots, why not choose here, right in the heart of downtown?
