Courtyard Magic

Another Perfect Evening On The Courtyard

Our goal at the Castle is to help you craft a one-of-a-kind wedding. We work with the best caterers and wedding services providers in the area and can make suggestions as you go through the planning process.  We host only one event at a time, and depending whether your guest list is small or large, we can be flexible with setup to include options for changes in the weather.  Let us know if you would like to configure a setup that is focused on the Courtyard but allows your guests to use part of the interior.

How much does it cost to rent the Castle?

The reason you will not find pricing on the website is because there are many variables that determine the rental fee like; date, time of day, length of event, number of guests, space to be used, complexity of setup, and items to be included in the rental. In many ways it is like ordering a new car, there are many options and you have choices that determine the final price.

Examples of wedding events at the Castle:

We work with couples in many price ranges, and if you have flexibility we can build an event that works for your budget.  In order to get pricing information we ask that you fill out a simple form with as much information as you have, then we check our calendar to see if your date is available, and then we go from there based on the information you share.

We know that food and beverage is a big part of your reception (click for reception style ideas), we have formed partnerships with a wide variety of caterers who can tailor the reception to your tastes and budget, let us know if you need suggestions.  We do allow alcohol service at the Castle, service must follow liquor laws of Kansas, and adhere to a few simple Castle service rules.
