Lee's Summit is one of the fastest-growing cities in the metro and it shows up in the wedding calendar first. The Historic Longview Mansion has been standing for over a century — 22,000 square feet on ten acres of gardens — and it's the reason a lot of couples pick Lee's Summit in the first place. Stonehaus Farms, the Pavilion at John Knox Village, Faulkner's Ranch, and the venues around Lake Lotawana and Longview Lake fill out the rest of the season.
Downtown Lee's Summit keeps the historic side. Summit Fair and New Longview handle the newer one. And Eurofins Viracor anchors a real corporate calendar on top of it all.
A coffee bar at a Lee's Summit reception isn't a beverage station. It's what keeps the dance floor alive at 10pm, and it's what you hand the third of the room that isn't drinking.
