Kansas is a portrait in contrast. From her vast fields of sunflowers bowing their graceful heads in a prairie breeze to her urban cities polished like emeralds, Kansas offers a diverse backdrop for couples planning a wedding. Jump into the Kansas Wedding Guide for helpful articles to make your Kansas wedding the day of your dreams.
Kansas is so vast, the sun actually sets thirty minutes later on its western towns than it does on its eastern cities. Packed into all that space is a state filled with history, agriculture and pioneer spirit. The eastern half is home to major cities such as Topeka and Wichita. These major urban centers provide couples all the amenities available across the country for their wedding plans. Possible wedding venues include The Great Overland Station, a place with a colorful history dating back to the days of the frontier and spectacular period architecture. Ward Mead Park offers a botanical garden, Victorian home and a log cabin all in one site. The Greater Wichita Convention and Visitors Bureau gives you a convenient site to research museums, area attractions and links to Wichita's cowboy past. Being the largest city in Kansas, Wichita offers a wide spectrum of wedding vendors and specialty shops for all your planning details.
If you yearn for more elbow room, head west into the heartland of America in western Kansas. Western Kansas spreads out and celebrates its rural heritage and small town hospitality. Corn, wheat and those amazing sunflowers all blend into a landscape so big, the horizon disappears. Here you will find a variety of rural landscapes to celebrate your county, western or outdoor wedding. Towns like Dodge City offer legendary western venues and history to highlight a Kansas wedding. Boot Hill Museum and Front Street will immerse you in western hospitality and transport you back to the days of the Wild West. The Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks website offers a detailed map page to make finding a park setting easy. El Dorado offers cabin rentals for a nominal fee and access to the reservoir for an amazing destination wedding. Capitalize on the scenic sunsets and semi rustic lodgings for a pioneer-themed wedding.
Kansas is a state steeped in history and the pioneer life. Stone fence posts still dot the landscape off Interstate 70 and buffalo have been added to the list of agricultural treasures offered by the Sunflower State. But there is so much more to Kansas. Urban cities keep their rural roots and Midwestern hospitality in their people and events. Check out the Official State of Kansas Travel and Tourism website for statewide attractions and destinations.
Kansas lies in the heart of our county and you can feel that welcome in the smiles of her residents as you pass on the street. Congratulations on your upcoming Kansas wedding. The center of America's heartland can't wait to host your ceremony.
