KC WEDDING COMMUNITY CONNECTS:Cheers + Charity is an event created to bring together Kansas City's wedding community to network, celebrate a successful business year and give back to a local charity organization.

Come join us for the last wedding professional's networking event in 2025!
EVENT DETAILS:
Date: Wednesday, December 3, 2025
Time: 6-10 pm
Location: Lightwell Gallery | 1100 Main St, Kansas City, MO 64105
EVENT ADMISSION INCLUDES:
This year’s theme is “Shades of Giving”. It will be an immersive event that brings rich jewel tones to life through bold color blocking and purposeful design. The evening will begin with a cocktail hour and passed hors d'oeuvres, followed by a journey through sectioned-off spaces with specific color themes throughout the gallery, each transformed into distinct chromatic displays. Guests will experience live performances, photo moments, interactive stations, delicious bites, drinks and sweets. There will be a brief presentation by the charity recipient before concluding the night with dancing and mingling.
DRESS TO IMPRESS:
Dress to impress with bold color blocking or stylish monochromatic looks in rich jewel tones that pop against the winter backdrop. Think striking pairings — emerald, raspberry pink, silver, sapphire, aubergine, and goldenrod yellow! Don’t be afraid to make a statement; this is your moment to play with color and confidence.
HOW TO GIVE BACK:
$40 Admission Tickets + any extra donations will be given directly to Camp Encourage.
Guests will have the opportunity to enjoy beverage purchases and interactive guest experiences at the event, with proceeds also benefiting Camp Encourage.
Follow the link in the "Tickets" section of this event page to purchase your tickets! Ticket sales end on Monday, December 1st!
ABOUT THE CHARITY ORGANIZATION:
Camp Encourage is a Kansas City–based nonprofit that provides youth on the autism spectrum with enriching overnight camp experiences designed to build confidence, connection, and joy. Founded by special educators, the program combines classic camp fun — like swimming, arts, and campfires — with individualized support, sensory-friendly activities, and peer mentoring. Each session fosters inclusion, understanding, and lifelong friendships in a truly encouraging environment.
EVENT SPONSORS:
This charitable event is made possible by a group of generous wedding and event vendors who donate their time, talent, goods, and services. Their contributions not only create an incredible evening for the Kansas City wedding community to come together and celebrate but also make it possible for us to support the meaningful mission of Camp Encourage.
