I had my daughter's wedding at Lake Quivira Country Club, and overall, it was a really great experience. The lakefront setting is beautiful, which definitely added something special to the day. We were able to have the ceremony outside on the Patio, and the view in the background made for some great photos. The event space inside was clean and well set up. It didn’t feel too big or too small for our 200 person wedding - it was just right. The decorations were simple but elegant, and the layout worked well for the reception. The staff was helpful and easy to work with. They stayed on top of things and made sure everything ran smoothly, which took a lot of stress off of us. I appreciated how organized they were, especially with the timeline and food service. Speaking of food, it was delicious and people seemed to enjoy it. Everything came out on time and was warm and well-prepared. If you're considering it as a wedding venue, I’d say it’s worth looking into. The location is really nice, and the event space worked well for what we needed. It felt special in the right ways

I cannot recommend The Highlands enough as a wedding venue. The owner and venue coordinator, Jean and Aubrey, are constantly working to make every wedding experience the best. We could not believe the beauty of the venue when we first toured it. Since booking, they have made many beautiful updates such as new bridal suite furniture, new bar decor, and have even added chandeliers to the wings of the venue. We could not believe how much was included with our rental: ceremony and reception table/chair setup and takedown, black or white linens; a full closet of decor including signs, centerpieces, candelabras, table runners, and even champagne walls; open vendor policy, and on-site event staff to help with trashes, bathrooms, and any concerns that may arise. We were incredibly lucky to have found this venue, and we recommend it to every couple searching for one!
