We had a great experience using the Monarch Room for our wedding/reception venue. The owner, Megan, is very easy to work with and was helpful with our planning process. Shout out for being one of the only venues in downtown KC with the option to BYOB! There is a required charge to use the venue’s bartenders, but still well worth it. Venue is beautiful and was easy to decorate. Also she allowed us to bring our dog (best boy in our wedding party) so he could celebrate with us as well! Wedding was a great time!

The venue was just the right size, the staff was very good and very efficient, especially when arranging the room from ceremony to reception. However, it did not seem as though the floor had been wet mopped in a while. A guest spilled a beer and the rag used to wipe it up was super dirty after using it, far dirtier than it should have been. Other than that, no complaints.

We absolutely loved our wedding day at the Monarch Room!Megan was so nice to work with and made planning so easy!Their open vendor policy made it so nice. We supplied our own alcohol, but hired bartenders through the monarch room.And speaking of our bartender Joshua WAS A WHOLE VIBE! Everyone loved him!The room flip was seamless during cocktail hour and the set up was phenomenal. Also the fact of lighting, and linens being included made decorating a breeze. It’s SUCH a beautiful venue you hardly need to do any work.

Here’s my honest review of The Monarch Room:We booked this venue early in 2023. There were only a handful of Saturdays available and we luckily got a date we loved. It’s downtown and was exactly was we wanted in a venue.The owner, Megan, was super helpful and communicative.This was the easiest process for booking. The venue was open vendor, they provided the bartenders, they offered security as an add-on if desired. I believe 250 max guest count.There’s a full catering kitchen, multiple restrooms, large bar, and 2 get ready areas.Linen rental and tables and chairs were included, as was all the basic pop and tonic water, etc. Down lights are already in the venue, and the bar lights up. You can even customize the front of the bar with a monogram for an extra fee.As for service, everything was smooth. We had access at 10am, there was an on-site attendant to help us and coordinate with vendors if needed.Bartenders were great, they packed it all up for us and did their best to open bottles only as needed. They did our signature drinks great, and couldn’t ask for more. Just make sure you have your guest tip!As an above and beyond, we had a sentimental item left (even after we thought we got it all) and the owner was able to help us get it back very quickly.Rules: no confetti, use command strips for decor. It’s was pretty simple.I highly recommend. You get a great value for the price and location!

The Monarch room could not have been a more perfect venue for the casual vibe we were going for at our wedding!!! Meeting with Megan was always great! You really get the most bang for your buck at this venue. The bar package was awesome and the bar staff….well…..we cannot say enough good things about them!! The bridal room was amazing and because I didnt have a large wedding party, my friends got to hang out with me back there while we all got ready. It was a cute bride room that was cozy and made great pictures! The grooms room was super chill and im pretty sure several naps were taken on that couch. There was also a tv in there too. I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone looking for a venue!

Our daughter had her wedding reception at The Monarch Room. It was spectacular! Megan and her staff answered all of our questions before hand. The day of the event her staff helped with everything we needed done, down to every detail. We are still getting texts and emails about what a wonderful night it was and how perfect the venue was!! I truly recommend The Monarch room for any of your events!! Thanks again Megan for a fantastic lifetime memory!

There are so many great things about this venue to write about. First, Megan and team were so helpful. From our planning meetings to ensure everything was figured out, all the way through to after the wedding to make sure our day was everything we had hoped for, they were there for us. We loved the flexibility of their open vendor policy as well as the BYOB bar package, which not only made it easy to have fun signature drinks but also saved us so much money! The venue is modern industrial and lit so artistically that we didn’t need hardly any decorations. The downtown location was very convenient for hotels and excellent views. We were able to have a low waste event by partnering with Compost Collective KC. All in all, this venue is an incredible value for all the features and qualities it offers. Don’t hesitate to book your next event here!

As a Wedding Officiant here in Kansas City I get to see so many beautiful Wedding Spaces, and the Monarch Room is among KC's finest! It's clean, contemporary, super dope and nestled in heart of the historic crossroads area of Kansas City. It's 16-foot ceilings and large windows with picturesque Kansas City views makes the space feel so open and warm. The Monarch room is the perfect space for your Wedding, call today to set up a tour.

Great space in general for an event but felt a bit narrow especially for something with a lot of people.

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Monarch Room on 10.01.22. The venue was perfect for our vision -- we wanted a dark, moody, romantic vibe and we were able to execute that in this space. The bride and groom suites were so nice to have, the location is perfect, and we had great communication with the owners. The Monarch Room will always hold a special place in our hearts and I strongly recommend this wedding venue to anyone wanting to get married in the heart of Kansas City!

We LOVED having our wedding at The Monarch Room. In so many ways we felt they were an answer to prayer! Megan was the absolute best to work with and went above and beyond to help us with set up and the room flip. She was very accommodating and made us feel like she cared just as much about our special day. Our guests loved the location and took great pictures right outside with the city in view.
