Menu for Unity Temple on the Plaza in Kansas City, MO

I have only been to non-religious events here, but it is a great venue with intimate seating.

We had a Simple Ceremony with Ben ? it was exactly what we expected ?simple?. There are no worries whatsoever. Book your event... using the online calendar, and you?ll receive a call with contact information. I prefer to communicate via text, and they werewilling to accommodate. I received reminders and regular communication at times that made sense before our ceremony. Importantthings like ?having a marriage license in the State of MO?. KS is so close by, some people don?t think about that and get theirlicense in the wrong state. Our officiate, Ben, was organized, responsive, and helpful. The Temple is beautiful with plenty ofplaces for family photos. We were able to take photos with a photographer before and after the ceremony. There is also veryconvenient parking. The free, covered parking garage is steps away from the temple ? same side of the street ? right next door.For the actual ceremony? you get to choose what type ? religious or not, blessings before or after, rings or not. There is noneed for a rehearsal because it?s truly ?simple?: A few days beforehand, Ben confirmed we would have witnesses. In our case wewe had the maximum 15-guests including ourselves. It?s meant for very small and intimate weddings. Our parents on both brideand groom sides are mid 70?s and didn?t want big risks associated with larger groups and covid. We had our small, safe familyceremony for the actual wedding with a big reception later that evening. I couldn?t be happier with Unity Temple and highlyrecommend. Read more

I attended Live At The Temple: Kansas City Concert Series on September 10, 2021. The Jazz Concert performances were amazing. I... gave one star because I want to bring attention to the rude and unprofessional treatment by a man who is high up in managementat Unity Temple. I know he was higher management because he was called to the stage to welcome the audience. I had purchased areserved ticket and an usher seated me. However, this man from management said I needed to move over. He was trying to give mycenter aisle seat to his friend. The African American lady behind me who was in the first row of general admissions was toldthe same thing. She did not move. As an African American female, I felt like Rosa Parks, I did not move!! I paid $60 for areserved seat!! This man saw the usher seat me!! Read more
