The west bottoms, near downtown Kansas City, MO hold a special place in Anna and Jon’s hearts. Therefore it was only fitting they held their wedding reception in the west bottoms. A wedding in west bottoms was the perfect location for their dream wedding.
Anna and Jon started their day getting ready at the Courtyard Kansas City at Briarcliff in north Kansas City, MO where they had their first look. Then we ventured to their favorite areas in Kansas City that held special memories to the both of them.
First on the list of locations was The Hobbs Building where Anna surprised Jon with the Harley Davidson motorcycle he had been dreaming about. He had no clue she bought it for him. She even put the key to the motorcycle inside the same container Jon used to propose to her with.
Next on the list we stopped for a view of downtown Kansas City, MO and wandered around the Crossroads area near The Bauer event venue. Then to the location where they had their first date, The Blue Line.
They had their wedding ceremony at Platte Woods United Methodist Church surrounded by their family and friends.
Finally they ended their evening at The Hobbs Building with The Feasts of Fancy in the west bottoms near downtown Kansas City, MO where they danced the night away and we ended our time together with some fun light painting.

Jon and Anna had their first date at this bar. So we thought it was fitting we would go back with the wedding party for a drink and photos.
Their cake topper is a family heirloom. I love the little touches added to wedding days to make it even more special.
