The Hilltop

01/31/2025

STAHHHP. 🥹 I love our couples.

"I recently had my wedding in early November at The Hilltop and I cannot express how happy I am with the experience and more importantly how much our guests enjoyed the experience. Not only was the venue absolutely stunning, but it was also incredibly affordable, which was a huge plus for us. Along with the open vendor policy and option to stock your own bar.

The staff were amazing. Terrica was incredibly welcoming and accommodating. She was always available whenever I had questions and even offered her expertise when I wasn’t really sure what to do about something. I was not the kind of girl who had a super clear vision of what my wedding day would look like. That can be a blessing or a curse but The Hilltop and the staff will make your dreams come true whether it’s over the top you are wanting or just a chill day with your boo.

The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and provided the perfect backdrop for our special day. I mean who doesn’t love a view?! The grounds were well maintained, the decor closet was organized and had a little something for everyone’s style. It’s a DIYers dream and I loved the special touch of being able to make your own monogram or PowerPoint and display it during the reception!

But what really stood out to us was how stress-free the entire experience was. From the planning stages to the day of, everything was so well taken care of, allowing us to truly enjoy the day.

Some special moments that meant a lot as a bride were the behind the scenes pictures Terrica took during the photography portions of the day, riding in her truck from shoot location to shoot location (so nice for the feet!!!) and just the random updates that everything is coming along just as you pictured it and concern for if there’s anything she can do to make it better/more perfect.

Overall, I highly recommend The Hilltop to anyone looking for a beautiful, affordable and stress free wedding venue. THANK YOU for making our wedding day so incredibly special!" - Cayli

Can any other type A's figure out why this graphic has my eye twitching?

Intimate weddings are still trending for 2025 - but the bulk of couples still report a guest list of 100+.

Wondering how your guest list stacks up against others?

Check out this graphic from Zola.

When it comes to guest lists, The Hilltop works for 65% of those!

We are so thankful to have been nominated for Kansas City Wedding Vendor Choice Awards, Venue of the Year - the last 2 years. (Even though we aren't a finalist)

To be recognized by fellow vendors, really warms my heart and reminds me of this wonderful community I get to be a part of.

Working together with all of you wonderful people to execute amazing events for our common couples, sharing hugs, referrals, and a whole lot of water bottles. You all are such a blessing.

Thank you for seeing me

That's right. Merry Christmas. Save your money to stuff those stockings, but get that wedding date booked!

12/03/2024

I had the sweetest conversation with a bride last week. She told me that the reason she booked was she had spoken with 3 past brides who told her things like..

"Terrica made me feel like her own daughter."
"Terrica was so helpful and caring."
"Terrica is 100% why we booked."

CUE THE TEARS!! 🥹

It truly touches my heart.

I am so thankful for all of our couples, all of our vendor friends, our staff, and our friends and family that continue to share us with their friends and family.

And now that it is engagement season (We have 10 tours this weekend alone) I want to remind you all how much your support really means to us.

We love you all.
