Brad Kaye3 months agoCassidy, Shannon, Morgan and the team at Union did a great job with our wedding. When we first signed on last year, there was a different group running it, but these ladies took over and impressed us with their organization and helpful attitudes. Cassidy in particular was our coordinator for the day of our wedding and she helped us through everything, kept the schedule on track with our photographer and DJ, and made sure we weren't stressed out on our special day. The venue is beautiful and our guests all commented on how much they enjoyed it. Convenient location near hotels, very clean, and overall just a great experience. Would highly recommend them to anyone for their wedding or any big party that needs a venue. My photos won't do it justice, so you'll have to check it out sometime.
Jillian Moya Beltrán3 months agoWedding day was 5/30/25. We were told a lot of things that weren’t financially accurate from whomever did our initial tour—it felt like omission later on which was super disappointing BUT Allison did a hell of a job working with us/making things right. She has a very calm demeanor and understands how stressful wedding planning is. Utilize their planning services! Kyle was a man on a mission and I wish I had hired him. He went above and beyond to check in on me and my husband. Even ran to the liquor store with our card to pick up more wine.
Madison Swart5 months agoWe couldn’t have asked for a better wedding venue. The space itself is absolutely stunning, and having the freedom to choose all of our own vendors allowed us to truly personalize our day. The staff was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. Addie, our coordinator, was truly amazing. She was so detail-oriented and attentive with everything I provided her. Because of her and the wonderful staff, our wedding day went off without a hitch. I felt completely confident knowing everything was in such capable hands. The venue is beautiful, and my vision was brought together perfectly. I especially loved the speakeasy and having two separate spaces for the ceremony and reception. It made the day flow seamlessly and feel so special. I can’t recommend this venue enough!
Tip Rudell9 months agoOur wedding day was absolutely magical, thanks to this incredible venue. The exposed brick walls and abundant natural light created the perfect backdrop for both our ceremony and reception—our photos are breathtaking. We loved that everything could happen in one place, from morning prep to the last dance. The getting-ready suites were spacious, comfortable, and beautifully designed, making the entire day relaxed and seamless. The staff was attentive and easy to work with, keeping everything running smoothly so we could simply enjoy every moment. Truly the perfect venue for an unforgettable wedding—five stars without question!
Brian Wirta month agoUNION at 1721 Baltimore Ave in downtown Kansas City is one of the most versatile industrial wedding and event venues in the Crossroads District. From a professional DJ and Photo Booth standpoint, it’s a top-tier “blank canvas” space that consistently delivers strong production flexibility and a high-end urban atmosphere. The venue’s multi-level layout is one of its biggest strengths. With exposed brick, wood beams, high ceilings, and large open rooms, each floor can be transformed for ceremonies, cocktail hours, receptions, or after-parties. This separation of space allows events to flow smoothly while keeping energy levels organized throughout the night. For DJ setups, UNION is extremely production-friendly. Load-in is straightforward, sound carries well in the open industrial layout, and there’s plenty of room for lighting rigs, dance floors, and full reception entertainment setups. Once the party starts, the space easily converts into a high-energy dance environment. Photo Booth setups also work exceptionally well here. The industrial-modern aesthetic provides a strong visual backdrop without needing heavy décor, and the natural guest flow between floors helps keep engagement high throughout the event. One of the biggest advantages is vendor flexibility. Couples and planners can fully customize their event with outside vendors, allowing for a more personalized experience compared to traditional banquet halls. That freedom makes UNION especially popular for modern weddings, creative receptions, and styled corporate events. Overall, UNION is a premium Kansas City industrial venue for weddings, DJ entertainment, Photo Booth experiences, and high-energy social events, especially for clients wanting a modern, flexible, and visually striking space.
