It is a beautiful chapel, and they've got weddings down to a tee. You rent it for 3 hours at a time so you'd better get finished within that time frame. The guy we worked with has his way of doing things and it's best if you go along with his way. I'm no bridezilla so it wasn't a problem, but our minister assisted and when I need a change at the last minute I talked to him instead of the guy from Pilgrim Chapel. The only music we had was by a friend with his acoustic guitar and it was just magical!

I love this adorable space so much! The organization does a great job with the landscaping and the grounds/gardens always looks beautiful. I've hosted and attended several events in the space and my experiences have all been positive. Their staff is kind, responsive, and easy to work with. I also love that I'm supporting a great organization (Pilgrim Center for Connection) that provides a sacred space for the community without dogma or hidden agendas. Highly recommend! read more

I recently decided on Pilgrim Chapel for my upcoming wedding. I've always driven by the church and thought it was lovely, so I finally checked it out so I could see the inside as well. It's beautiful! It's all stone with gorgeous stained glass windows inside. There's a small altar at the front and several rows of small pews. The carpeting is a very inoffensive shade of lavendar. There is a small room downstairs for changing and right outside the sanctuary is a small greeting room with a table and a couple of chairs. It's very cozy! There are a few downsides: It is extremely tiny--it only holds about 70 people. Also, it was originally a church for the deaf, so there is no organ or piano; if you want music you have to bring it in yourself. Pricing is reasonable. It's $750 for weekends and I think it's about $400 if you get married during the week. They do allow payments. I've had a chance to meet with the staff and they are friendly and helpful as well. I'm looking forward to being married here! read more

Beautiful chapel! What a great experience, whether it be for a Christmas service, a movie in the park across the street (Gillham Park) or a wedding!!! We had to cut costs on our wedding and it was also an "easy out" to say the church was only big enough for family - I think it holds 70pp. There was room for our 2 ushers, 3 bridesmaids/groomsmen, 2 photographers and a videographer - oh, and the guitarist. I, on the other hand, intended to walk down the aisle with my mother - but having gained a little weight and having bought a dress with enough fabric to clothe a kindegarten class - I had to walk down the aisle alone because I wasn't sure we'd fit comfortably. read more

Amazing little church in a beautiful historic neighborhood in Kansas City, MO/Hyde Park. Not to mention, Pastor Roger was uber professional, understanding and personable. I got married at Pilgrim Chapel March of 2012. The weather was perfect and EVERYTHING went to plan...well there was one thing. I was 10-15 minutes late to my own ceremony. . . hey! perfecting beauty takes time! My party was small so if you have less than 75-80 people in your party this place is doable. I enjoyed the quaint, minimalistic, coziness and natural lighting/design of this chapel. The wood work and architecture is gorgeous. Other Mentionable Items: Historically this chapel was for the deaf therefore there is no organ or piano. We brought a cd player and played soft classical music. An idea is have a small 2-3 ensemble to play live. I think we will do this next time upon renewing our vows. Affordability, I paid $450-500 for two-three hours, I believe in 2012 for my wedding. Since we just did a wedding ONLY, I felt this price was more than fair. Pastor Roger allowed us to make payments and I think it took us 2-3 months to pay off our balance. Planning, Do plan ahead and be flexible. Backwards planning worked best for us as I booked 6-7 months out. Due to my minimalist style my wedding was less than $4,500 (former Army Logistics Officer here) however, planning ahead and being realistic is essential. This place and the people who work here are outstanding. Thank you! read more

A beautiful building that wasn't available the day my then-fiance and I got married on Oct. 4, 2014. BUT -- we managed to get Roger (the pastor) to perform our ceremony at the Ambassador hotel -- and we couldn't have been more pleased.

We fell in love with this chapel the first time we saw it. We knew immediately it was where we wanted to have our wedding. It also meant we were able to limit our guest list and keep our wedding intimate. Roger, the chapel minister, told us guests really enjoy ceremonies there and really feel like a part of the celebration, but it wasn't until our wedding was actually happening that I realized he was absolutely correct. All of our guests gushed over the ceremony. Not to mention, the place looks amazing in pictures! The bridal basement has lots of room but isn't exactly picturesque. Make sure your guests are prepared - if they're not super familiar with this part of town it can be difficult to find, and there is only one bathroom at the chapel, and it's in the basement. read more

My friend was supposed to have her wedding done here, about six weeks in advance due to luck of the draw someone called and and found out they had double booked her, they didn't even know!! (imagine if they never would have caught that, two couples on the same date at the same time) they were EXTREMELY unprofessional and moral in how they handled the situation, they were wanting her to find her own way out, all six weeks before the wedding,( what venue has a specific date available in prime wedding season?) they basically told her they would much rather have one unhappy couple rather than having everyone who booked that day unhappy. My friend ended up losing her reception venue, caterer, photographer and everything else that came with all thanks to this chapel. Way to be a church, now this place will never be recommended and will be advised to stay away from. read more

I'm not one that writes reviews but my experience for my wedding here was beyond amazing and I knew I had to let others know. If you are looking for the perfect intimate setting for your wedding day and amazing support from the staff, this is it! Catherine is the Wedding and Event Director and I cannot even put into words how amazing she was to work with. We wanted to find somewhere that our dog could be flower girl and she had no issues with it. Prior to wedding I even meet up with her two different times to show my parents and the pastor the venue, all of which she took time out of her personal schedule to meet us. She was very flexible with our wedding rehearsal the night before as we has some members show up late and on our wedding day was there to even open and close doors for the wedding party to enter. If it wasn't for her helping with rehearsal and the day of the wedding, it wouldn't of went as smooth. She truly went above and beyond and always was quick to answer any questions via email that we had. I would recommend pilgrim to chapel to every couple who wants the perfect intimate setting. It's a beautiful chapel and the support you get is unheard of. Worth every single penny and more. read more

I don't attend one, but I love cathedrals. I can describe it as breathtaking. You park in the gated lot, and go around to the side, which I think is the main entrance. Then I went into the sanctuary. Oh my. I've been to several cathedrals in my traveling, even the large St. Francis of Assisi in Santa Fe, NM. They strike my curiosity. The castle like interior, and the stone exterior with towers and black wrought iron brings one back to a different time period. That's cause this cathedral has been in KC since 1870...I'm not a cathedral geek, I read it in the brochure.The inside of the sanctuary has pews that are wooden and sound creeky. They are old and smell of cedar. The stage, well, I guess it's the pulpit area, is lavish with wrought iron decorating the top of center of the stage. It looks like an open wrought iron gate. Really, it's difficult to describe. It's a not miss, even if you don't attend church, just go inside and look at the sanctuary. I don't know the hours, but it's a definite destination for anyone traveling to Kansas City. It's huge. And the sound system was right on. The stained glass is out standing. They have an art show going on, called Tranformations. The organ music is grand, just grand. So I suggest taking a trip to visit this cathedral just once. It's gorgeous, and breath taking.

I got home and started researching them, and discovered that adherents go into debt to Scientology to pay for those classes. Some cost $20k, no kidding! All those classes are in the quest of their sect, to get a person's mind to a "clear" state, clear of little beings named "thetans." Ridiculous, isn't it? Well I also discovered that celebrities are treated very well, pampered actually, so as to lure regular folks to join. Regular folks are outright abused, and forced to work off the prices of their worthless "classes" for YEARS in various Scientology locations. And if anyone ever tries to leave, Scientology's warped lawyers will come after them tooth and nail, trashing that person's reputation, as they did with Leah Remini. That's IF they are able to escape! Look up what Scientology did to Lisa McPherson. Scientology is NOT any type of Christian sect, so the "cross" atop their buildings is just for show. There's statues and busts of their founder, a science fiction writer all over the place. And I've repeatedly, over 16 years, ordered them to have no more contact with me. And they have not respected my orders, and repeatedly contacted me--even after I moved more than 200 miles away and changed my phone number. AVOID THIS PLACE AND THE ORGANIZATION LIKE THE PLAGUE.

There is an enormous kitchen at your disposal; chairs and tables are provided; the hall has many windows that filter in gorgeous light; there are hanging lanterns; and the hall is also decorated with twinkle lights. The high ceilings make the space seem grand and impressive, while maintaining a sense of intimacy. The owner, Lord, is VERY easy to deal with.

She was extremely helpful and willing to make small alterations to the existing packages to ensure that all needs are met.
