The Foundation

Steve and I visited The Foundation last Friday evening and we have secured it as our wedding/reception site! We wanted to find a place with charm and character and this place has it in abundance. It's located in the West Bottoms, which for those of you unfamiliar with Kansas City is the former home of the infamous KC Stockyards. The West Bottoms is currently home to Kemper Arena, the American Royal Complex, several Haunted Houses and lots and lots of really old buildings which are being converted into lofts, event space, restaurants, retail businesses and more. The West Bottoms is the oldest part of Kansas City and the building The Foundation is located in was built in 1875. Patrick, the owner, is an Architectural Restoration Specialist and has a showroom with architectural pieces on the level above the event space. This place is fabulous and I love everything about it! We are so excited to have our wedding there and can't wait to see how it all turns out!
