I recently attended an event at The Mint and was seriously impressed. The venue is stunning—modern, clean, and really well laid out. The main reception hall is huge and beautifully designed, and there was a separate space that worked perfectly for a smaller part of the event. Everything was seamless, from the sound system to the lighting. You can tell they’ve put a lot of thought into making the space flexible for all kinds of events. It’s definitely a place I’d recommend to anyone planning a wedding, party, or even a company event!

  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $100

From elegant dinner affairs to burlap and boots, the Community Courtyard lends its self to any type of wedding theme you and your guests will remember for a lifetime.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Rustic charm with elegance
  • Bridal suite on site
  • Space for a large guest list

Venue considerations

  • No in-house catering options
  • No on-site guest accommodations
  • On-site parking not available
With a short engagement and a tight budget, we were having a hard time finding a venue. On a whim, I randomly found Community Courtyard. Little did I know it has been a town staple in Plattsburg, MO for 20 years as an event space. The building itself is very historical, dating back to the 1800's. This building is a non-profit and runs as a food bank throughout the week, so you know your money is going to a good cause. They came at very reasonable price (about 70% lower than most places we looked at). Not only that but we got a lot of bang for our buck. They had decor we could use, a sound system, a cute bridal suite, they tore everything down for us for a small fee, and were super flexible with scheduling. It also holds a lot of guests and has ample kitchen space on both floors. I would recommend this venue to anyone!
