Kansas City is such a special place to us. We've spent the last 5 years exploring all there is to do here and are so excited to share it with you.
We know that the time between the ceremony and reception can be full of confusion when you're not from the area.
Here's a list of some of our favorite places to go within walking distance of the reception venue.
If you're in the mood for some exploring- you can find lots of places to go just walking and hopping around the area.
