If you're reading this you're probably engaged and/or looking for a wedding venue in central Kansas... so OMG congratulations!!
Here is a list of some of the best wedding venues I have photographed a wedding at that you and your partner should look at booking for your 2024 wedding. Most of my couples have western themed weddings so all of these venues fit that theme perfectly!

Clover Cliff Ranch
Address: 826A US-50, Elmdale, KS 66850
Website: https://www.clovercliffranch.com/
First on the list of best Kansas wedding venues I have photographed at is Clover Cliff Ranch and Bed & Breakfast. This cute venue is located in the heart of the Flint Hills right off highway 50 in Elmdale, Kansas. It's 19th century themed venue features a bed & breakfast house for getting ready in the morning along with their limestone pavilion to either hold the ceremony and/or reception inside of. If getting married in nice weather months (but who are we kidding its Kansas) there is an outdoor ceremony space outback.
