  • Not for you if you prefer a more modern aesthetic
Everything about this venue is amazing. The true Kansas views, the wonderful staff/owners, and the beautiful facilities are just the tip of the iceberg regarding all the great things I have to say about Fireflies Farms. I got married in June 2024 and still receive many compliments about my wedding. Everyone comments on how beautiful the grounds/buildings are and how fun the space is. Planning a wedding can be overwhelming, but Lisa (the owner) was so helpful!! I cannot thank her and her event coordinator enough for making sure I thought of everything, coordinating the day of, setting up the venue, and working with me on the unique activities I had planned throughout my wedding day. I got married in their meadow, and I have an elderly family member who has mobility restraints. They didn't think twice about using their golf cart to shuttle them to ensure my loved one was able to participate in such a special day! I cannot thank them enough for being so thoughtful in those little but important details! Also, the venue already having a stockpile of decor to choose from and decorate with was amazing and eliminated one more thing I had to worry about. Not that you need much decor since the venue is so pretty on its own that every corner is a beautiful backdrop to your photos!

Ally is the freaking bomb! She was my day-of-coordinator, but she went above and beyond day-of-coordinating. Shortly after booking with her, we had our first of three meetings before the wedding, where she was instrumental in building the foundation of our special day. She was extremely helpful throughout the whole process, and was always available and very responsive. With this being my first wedding, I had no idea where to start, but Ally was very knowledgeable and efficient. She always had a plan and paid attention to all of the small details. For example, the timeline she provided was excellent and very thorough. It was so detailed that my DJ told me it was the best timeline she had seen, making her job much easier as well. Ally even provided printed versions for the bridal party the night of rehearsal. If there is any problem that arises, you can trust Ally to find the solution with ease. She was a calming presence the day of and I could not recommend more, she was amazing.

My husband and I got married in December 2023 and used Sofi for the entirety of our wedding planning. I'm not great at, nor do I enjoy planning parties/events, but once we explained our general vision, vibe, and hopes for our day, it was obvious Sofi had a clear idea of what we wanted and she hit the ground running. I cannot even fathom what our wedding would've been like without her. Every detail was carefully curated. She stuck to our budget and honestly made everything so enjoyable with her bubbly, fun, and kind personality. She felt like (and I'd like to this was!) a close friend throughout the course of the year that we planned our wedding, and then the day of the wedding came and she was all business (I mean that in the most respectful and awe-inspiring way). Her and her team could not have made the day easier or more stress-free for us. She was on top of everything and her attention never wavered from doing everything she could to make it the best day ever for us. There was even a small detail that was wrong with our drink menu at the bar; we had incorporated our dogs' names and a sketch of them, and the wrong sketch had been placed next to the wrong dog name. We wouldn't have been upset in the slightest, and yet Sofi made a call and had the corrected drink menu on its way within seriously only 20 minutes! Our special day just would not have been the same without Sofi's calm demeanor, attention to detail, and unique eye for design.

Definitely book All Set Events!!! Their communication style is easy-going yet efficient, and the quality of their work is simply outstanding. Sky, our DJ, listened intently to all of my music preferences and executed the playlist flawlessly, resulting in so many compliments from our guests and a packed dance floor all night long. People also loved his table dismissal game! Additionally, Eden alleviated a ton of pre-wedding and day of stress by helping us nail down timelines and decor - she's so clever, like when she proposed using our bridemaids bouquets as the centerpiece for our kings table since I didn’t have anything planned and was running out of time to create more decor. Eden also helped us with the ceremony rehearsal the day before the wedding, which I was extremely grateful for! Sky & Eden worked together seamlessly to make our special day fun, memorable, and low-stress. We are beyond grateful for their top-notch service!

Hi there! Nice to meet you! I’m a photographer, full-time executive assistant at a non-profit organization, graphic designer, true crime weirdo, and karaoke expert in Kansas City, Missouri. Most importantly, I’m a mom to a sweet baby boy and two pups, and I’m in love with my best friend. Twelve years ago, in a tiny Kansas town called Yoder, I started my little photo business. Since then, I’ve been so lucky to be able to create many life-long friendships with tons of incredible people throughout the Midwest and beyond.

Stevie Nicole Photography was an absolute dream to work with for our wedding day. From the very beginning, they were extremely responsive and attentive, always getting back to us quickly and addressing any questions or concerns we had. Their photography style is truly unique and creative, capturing beautiful, one-of-a-kind shots that we'll cherish forever. On the day of the wedding, Stevie's calm and easygoing presence was so appreciated - they helped keep us relaxed and focused on enjoying the moment, all while discreetly capturing all the special memories. We are thrilled with the final photos and feel that Stevie Nicole Photography provided incredible value and quality for the investment.

In doing this, it gave me the best sound quality to make a killer wedding video for the bride and groom. He was interactive with the guests during dinner time, kept everyone entertained, and KEPT THE PARTY GOING! I never saw the dance floor empty throughout the night and I'm looking forward to hopefully working with Derek again in the future!

Caitlyn Cloud Photography 

5.0

  • Photographer
  • Photojournalistic style
  • Serves Paola, KS

I grew up in a divided home, literally. Splitting time between my parents after their divorce, often being in the middle of their fighting, made me grow into a very empathetic person. It’s become the biggest strength I take with me into wedding days. My documentary style stems from my ability to sense when special moments are about to happen. I am able to sense emotions that aren’t necessarily visible, sense when to come close and when to be a fly-on-the-wall, and sense what/who is important to you therefore important to photograph.

Awarded Best of Zola
I cannot recommend Caitlyn enough!! I've been so lucky to work with Caitlyn in the past through my sister's wedding (so I know how amazing she is and how fantastic her picture are), but working with her from the bride's POV was just as amazing! Everything from our initial inquiry with her, to our wedding day was seamless. Caitlyn had great communication with us; responding to emails within 1-2 days, checking in with us on the wedding planning journey, offering support and advice in all areas of wedding planning, even emailing to give updates on the wedding gallery editing process. My husband and I are just naturally very awkward people and had never taken professional photos together before. We were worried that our awkwardness would come out in the pictures/we wouldn't know what to do other than just stand and smile. What we loved about working with Caitlyn, was that she was just there as a fly on the wall capturing pictures of us as we were sitting and talking and laughing together. She would give us pose ideas and ideas to make each other laugh, and overall made us feel very comfortable in a situation where we would not typically feel comfortable. On our wedding day, there was probably 5-6 inches of snow on the ground; Caitlyn brought her snow boots with her to our wedding day and marched through the snow with us to give us the most amazing wedding photos! The snow pictures are by far my favorite pictures from our day. Caitlyn delivered a MASSIVE wedding gallery of so many fantastic photos! I feel as if she captured all the different moments of our wedding (e.g., getting ready, vows, first looks, ceremony, reception, etc) perfectly. I love all the photos of our guests from the ceremony and reception; with the day being so busy it's hard to talk to every single guest, but having these pictures is special because we know they were there and excited to celebrate with us. One thing I recommend to future brides booking with Caitlyn, is to schedule a meeting with her to sit down and make sure your shot list has all the necessary combinations. Our family photos are some of our favorite pictures, but when my husband and I were putting together our shot list, we forgot some combinations of people that we felt strongly about getting more 1:1 pictures with. A meeting with Caitlyn to discuss your shot list, will help to eliminate any opportunity for missed combinations. Overall, Caitlyn did a fantastic job capturing my husband and I from our engagement pictures, to the wedding day, but also capturing our relationships with family and friends through wedding day pictures (e.g., getting ready, reception, etc.). We plan to use Caitlyn to capture all of our best life adventures from here on out! :)

I was a bride in June of 2017 and I booked this company almost a year and a half before my wedding. I would not change it for anything!!! They were so helpful and available throughout the whole wedding planning process and made themselves readily available to us. The day of the wedding was absolutely perfect and almost every single person there complemented the professionalism and vibes all the staff had - particularly our DJ Brandon. If any of my friends get married in the future I will STRONGLY suggest using this company! Brandon has become close friends to my husband and I and our groups of friends. We recommend him to all of our loved ones and love seeing him at all of our events together. To this day, I still am told that our wedding was one of the best they have been to and we have Brandon to thank for that. He raised soooo much money for our honeymoon during our non-traditional dollar dance and made the whole night ruin so smoothly. Like I said, best wedding decision we made.

Your wedding should be a seamless, joy-filled celebration, and that includes a beautifully curated bar experience. At Polished Pour, we specialize in creating elevated, stylish, and stress-free bar services tailored to your vision. Inquire today to secure your date!

The ladies with Polished Pour were one of the best accidental decisions we made for our wedding! Our scheduled bartenders canceled 2 weeks before our wedding, and Polished Pour stepped up andturned out to be everything we wanted and more! They had excellent communication and were extremely professional. They provided everything, except the glassware that we rented with our tableware. Our cocktails were delicious and gorgeous! We hired them them again for my husband's company picnic, and we are planning to ask them to do it all again for the Christmas party. I can not recommend Polished Pour enough! 10/10

  • Videographer
  • Storytelling style
  • Serves Paola, KS

Award winning Videographer team that specialize in the very best day of service. Telling your story of the entire day from start to finish with a Cinematic touch. Everything filmed in 4k with the ability to livestream.

If I could give Chris more than 5 stars, I WOULD! He did such an amazing job at our wedding! Not only was he professional and punctual, but he went above and beyond! Helped me stay calm when we hit a couple bumps along the way, brought me water after the ceremony (I hadn’t realized I hadn’t drank any for awhile), made sure I had drinks throughout the night, but also made sure I ate before attending to my guests! He helped me take care of myself in the midst of the chaos! My husband and I read our vows privately before the ceremony and Chris already sent that over and I have cried so many times watching it already because he captured the moment perfectly! I can’t wait to see the rest of the footage! 10000/10 would recommend Chris for your wedding videographer!
