    Absolutely Perfect.

    I literally can't say enough good things about Eventful! Not only was it super reasonable budget-wise, everything about the space, inside and out, was absolutely beautiful. I'm so glad the weather was gorgeous for our wedding day because our outdoor ceremony was so lovely, but it was such a comfort to know that if the weather didn't cooperate we would still have a lovely indoor option! The setting was a magical place to have our big day. :)

    All the staff are an absolute JOY to work with - everyone truly made us feel like we were family, they were so dedicated to making our day wonderful. An extra shoutout to Christy for going out of her way to allow us to tour the venue several times each time my family came out to visit in the year before the wedding!

    Perfect ratings all around! I held my wedding at the Eventful in Weston and I couldn’t have been happier with the choice. Christy and the team were great to work with and helped me throughout the day to make it just right. They made everything so easy to plan! Everyone commented on the decor and space. It felt so homey and was large enough for dancing and mingling. They have a beautiful outdoor grande and ceremony space too. I was so happy with it all. It’s a really pretty vintage country feel and I loved it!

    Eventful At Locust Grove's reply:

    Thanks so much, Emmalei! It was a gorgeous wedding and we were so happy to be a small part of it. Congrats to you both!!!

    My partner and I got married here on Oct 7! The venue is perfect in every way from the ceremony site to the dance floor:) We absolutely loved it from the moment we had our first tour. The owners Christy and Kate are amazing. They really know what they are doing when it comes to running this place. Christy was a great help, she was always there when I needed her and anytime I emailed her it was a quick response. The day of the wedding we had Hannah as our house manager and she was wonderful as well. My wedding day was perfect and I couldn't of asked for a better place to do it at.

    This venue is absolutely beautiful. The fact that the wedding ceremony and the reception was in the same location was awesome. It's all normally decorated so eloquently that we really didn't need to add a whole lot of decorations. Kate and Christy were amazing to work with. Especially since we were planning our wedding from three different states and two different time zones. They had some extra decorations and such that they let us use which saved us money. Their professionalism and the ease at which we were able to get our wedding ceremony and reception planned with Kate and Christy was incredible. They definitely helped ease any stress that we may have had. I hope that one day one of our children chose Eventful at Locust Grove as their wedding venue as I can't wait to go back!

    Eventful At Locust Grove's reply:

    Cheri,
    Thanks so very much for the nice words. You make our job sooooo easy. Loved being a part of your special day. Congratulations and we hope to see you back very soon!

    Our wedding was on September 26,2015. I can't say enough good things about this place. Our guests kept asking us how we found the Eventful. My best friend recommended the venue but I was in Texas so we skyped the tour. Christy and Kate were very gracious and full of suggestions from the beginning.The venue was beautiful and required little adornment. We used the outdoor space to get married and it was breathtaking. The white church pews looked beautiful in our pictures. The corn fields and rustic barn in the background photographed so nicely. Christy let us use her ferns to decorate the altar platform. The ladies were very generous in letting us use the decorations they had available.I used their darling antique suitcase to hold our cards, their candelabras to light our cake, their lanterns to light the patio. There were so many personal touches Christy and Kate brought to our gathering. The reception was so perfect. They figured out a way to accomodate my dream of paper lanterns hanging from the ceiling without damaging the drywall. The bar staff they hired were amazing.We even had a personal day of event coordinator provided by them to make sure the day ran smoothly. She did a fantastic job. No job was too small for Christy to perform. She even put out wedding cake! She answered endless phone calls and emails promptly. Her mantra was ,"Don't worry about it, we will take care of it." I toured the property several times and they met me without complaint. Loved the personal bridal room with huge mirror and salon chairs. They also coordinated the flow of wedding guest, vendors and even the wedding part to make sure the groom didn't see the bride before the wedding. I have a huge family and they were given run of the whole property. We were even allowed to use Kate's front porch of her antebellum home as a photo backdrop. Parking was plentiful. Our wedding was perfect and I can't imagine having had it at any other place. I would not change a single thing.

    Where do I even begin when talking about Eventful!? Let me start with Kate and Christy. They are absolutely amazing. They helped me to plan my wedding from out of state and were so attentive from the beginning. They sent me tons of information and photos and gave my parents and sister a tour of the space for me. They were so easy to get in touch with and very quick to answer any and all questions about my big day. Thank you so much Kate and Christy for everything you did to help Scott and I pull off our wedding day.
    Both the ceremony space outside, the lattice house, and the absolutely gorgeous reception space inside are to die for. I knew it was meant to be the moment I saw the first photos. All of these spaces are so stunning on their own that they hardly need any decoration to dress it up. The space stands on it's own. Our ceremony was a beautiful September night outside. They set up the church pews and white chairs for all of our guests to settle in to. We set up our guestbook and water bottle station inside the lattice house under the gorgeous chandelier they have inside. It was so stunning and all of our guests were so impressed by the beauty of it all.
    Our reception was inside and my oh my the compliments I have gotten about the space. It was absolutely perfect. We lined their "mantle" wall with wedding photos of all of our family members, some dating back to the 30's! We also added pops of flowers to the wall. We hung our engagement photo's with push pins on the burlap wall. We also hung a gold fringed DIY photo booth backdrop from the curtain rod separating the dance floor from the entrance. We used their cute chalk board wall as the backdrop for our candy bar and had our guests write on the wall. We even had Big Jay the KU mascot come in and surprise everyone in attendance...including the groom! Eventful helped me pull all of this off and I couldn't have done it without them.
    Thank you Christy and Kate for helping me achieve such a perfect wedding!!

    This is a beautiful venue with a dedicated staff who was easy to work with from the very beginning all the way through the end. They even jumped in during our wedding to help with last minute emergencies as they came up. We are so grateful that we chose this location!

    I cannot say enough great things about Eventful! Christy and Kate are very knowledgable about hosting events and helping with every step along the way. Even planning an hour away from Weston was not impossible because Christy was always quick to respond to e-mails and returning phone calls. She also had several suggestions for decorations and helped our big day run smoothly. I will recommend Eventful to anyone and everyone getting married OR having a large party!

    If you are looking for the perfect venue, this is it. Look no further…Our wedding was on June 6th, 2015. This venue was amazing!!! Kate and Christy were a dream to work with. They really tried to make sure every detail was taken care of. They were just wonderful!! The outdoor ceremony site is beautiful without decoration but you could make it as fancy as you like. There are flowers leading up to the area, during season, that are so beautiful. We opted for a small wedding and big reception. Even though the outdoor ceremony site large enough to accommodate many, Kate and Christy still managed to make our ceremony seem intimate and beautiful. They really are amazing. The reception was indoors and a guest list of just over 100. It was more than enough room to comfortably accommodate everyone. The space is beautiful and can be decorated to be whatever you want. We were able to have a live band and bring our own caterer. The patio off of the reception area is perfect for guests looking to escape the party for a few and enjoy some fresh air. Our wedding guests kept asking me how I found this place because it was so beautiful.

    This was a perfect location for my ceremony and reception venue together! Every square foot has a perfect rustic elegant look. The owners are so sweet and helpful. Outside and inside are gorgeous and once you visit it will be hard to say no.

    We have not yet had our wedding here, but the venue is beautiful. As soon as my Fiance, our family, and I visited we knew it was the place we wanted to get married. They have been so much help, generous, flexible, and very down to earth and that has made the wedding planning process that much easier. I cannot wait to get married here!
