We couldn’t have been happier with our choice of venue. After searching around Topeka and not finding a space that truly spoke to us, we decided to venture out to Lawrence—and that’s when we found The Cider Gallery. It was everything we had hoped for and more. The gallery space was absolutely perfect—its clean, open layout and elegant architecture offered a beautiful contrast to our decorations and made everything feel both timeless and unique. Even before the décor went up, the space had a charm of its own. It served as the perfect blank canvas for our vision to come to life. Once decorated, it truly transformed into something magical. We received so many compliments from our guests on how gorgeous and inviting the space felt. We had originally planned to host Cocktail Hour outside in the courtyard, complete with yard games, but the Kansas heat had other plans. We were also concerned that the heat might derail our bourbon tasting—hosted in a spot we affectionately called The Alamo—but it ended up being a guest favorite! The setup was cozy and inviting, and our guests enjoyed the experience so much that the heat didn’t dampen the mood one bit. We also received multiple compliments from our vendors on how easy it was to work with The Cider Gallery. Their organization, flexibility, and professionalism made setup and coordination a breeze for everyone involved. We absolutely LOVE Coco and her team at The Cider Gallery. They were wonderful to work with—responsive, professional, and incredibly accommodating throughout the planning process. They helped make the entire experience smooth, enjoyable, and truly memorable. If you’re looking for a venue that’s versatile, elegant, and full of character, we wholeheartedly recommend The Cider Gallery. It played such a meaningful role in making our event unforgettable.
