As warmer months approach and weddings resume, I’ve been working on updating my original Ultimate List of Wedding Venues in Kansas City with updates, new venues and current information. While researching, I discovered that while there are a couple of articles and lists that include a handful of “best rooftop wedding venues,” I couldn’t find a complete list of Kansas City rooftop venues anywhere! So, I decided to take a slight detour and create one ultimate list of rooftop venues for all the Kansas City skyline loving couples out there!
Below, you’ll find a list of every rooftop wedding venue in Kansas City that I could find and research, as well as a few just outside greater Kansas City. I’ve included the basics about each venue, as well as a brief description of the vibe and pricing key as of this posting.

You’re ready to start scheduling some lovely tours of every rooftop wedding venue in Kansas City! Did I miss any? Are there any other details you’d like to see included in my summaries? Tell me in the comments below, then share this article with your engaged friends who are getting married in Kansas City. They’ll thank you, and I will, too!
I’m a documentary photographer based in Kansas City - I’m glad you’re here! When I’m not behind a camera, I am usually spending time outdoors with our children or creating something. My husband Jamie is the other half of the team here. He is my second shooter for weddings, and he leads marketing, sales and development.
The most important thing about us is that we serve Jesus. We have been completely, radically changed because of His incredible love, mercy and grace, and our prayer is for you to know just how much He loves you, too.
We have four amazing “arrows” - our oldest daughter, Cadence, who dances with Jesus already, and three here with us: Zai, Elle & Ezzy. They keep us walking the line between feeling absolutely humbled that we get to be their parents… and in a state of somewhat painful shock from the sheer number of Legos we find ourselves tripping over on a nightly basis.
In our day to day lives, we serve and love Jesus, and homeschool our children. We also create minimalist art and resources for homeschool and discipling children - you can find those in our Etsy shop, Ever June Co. Sometimes I share about all that here, too. Life is an amazing gift, and we’re so grateful.
Let us know if you can’t find what you’re looking for; it’s our joy to serve you.
