The Ridge is a stunning new modern/industrial with a hint of rustic venue located in Richmond, Missouri just 45 minutes from Kansas City, sitting on 20 beautiful acres surrounded by tree's and breath-taking panoramic views of the Missouri River bottoms. The Ridge is an open canvas for wedding ceremonies, receptions, corporate events, banquets, reunions, large parties and anything else you can imagine. The Ridge provides the perfect setting for an unforgettable wedding ceremony + reception. Your guests will be seated among the beautiful trees and scenery as they wait for you to make your way down the path to the arbor. The arbor can be adorned with chandeliers, flowers, fabric, or nothing at all! You don’t need much decor at The Ridge due to the attention to detail, both indoors and out.
As you are taking pictures you can treat your guests to a cocktail hour on the covered patio + indoor/outdoor lounge. When it’s time to begin the reception, guests can make their way into the main hall area. There, you and your guests can dine and dance the night away, all without ever leaving the property.
We aim to provide beauty and elegance for your most memorable day
