2026 Kansas City Wedding Vendor Choice Awards Gala

This February WED KC will be hosting the 7th annual Kansas City Wedding Vendor Choice Awards in The LEX at the Kansas City Convention Center, an awards gala that recognizes the outstanding achievement of wedding professionals from all industry categories over the past year. The gala allows wedding professionals to network, celebrate, and foster closer relationships amongst one another which cultivates the spirit of community.

The best part? Businesses are recognized and awarded by other wedding professionals. Awards include recognition within each category such as Venue of the Year, Photographer of the Year, or Caterer of the Year; as well as more unique awards such as The Trailblazer Award, Company of the Year, and Rising Star Award.

Tickets are sold individually or as a full table. Specific inclusions for each ticket type can be found in its description.

There are a limited amount of tickets and the event is expected to sell out like the past six years, so be punctual in reserving your tickets!

This year’s theme, The Grand Illusion, invites guests into a world where imagination reigns and reality takes a dazzling backseat. Inspired by the allure of vintage circus glamour and theatrical wonder, this theme celebrates the artistry, creativity and showmanship that define the Kansas City wedding community.

Guests are encouraged to embrace the spectacle with attire that embodies drama, whimsy and elegance. Think velvet textures, rich jewel tones, sequined accents, feathered details and statement silhouettes that feel straight from the stage. Channel your inner ringmaster, illusionist or star performer! This is your moment to shine beneath the spotlight and bring the magic of The Grand Illusion to life.
