Rehearsal dinner
Classic Cup

We really wanted to show our out-of-town guests different parts of the city. Since our ceremony/reception was downtown, we chose the Plaza for our rehearsal dinner. Stephen Malloy at the Classic Cup was great to work with. He was out-of-the-office a lot, but always seemed to return my calls in a timely manner. We were in the basement of the restaurant, a place which they call the Cellar. It's very private and has very access from a free parking garage. They have a nice selection of meals to choose from...you choose three and your guests order from those three on the night-of. Included in each was a salad, entree, and dessert. We choose the option for a cash bar and everything ran very smoothly. We received many compliments from our guests and I feel the restaurant was well worth the money.

Hereford House

We had our rehearsal dinner at Hereford House in Independence, MO. Jennifer, their banquet coordinator, was very helpful in dealing with us every time we called back about a new question. DH's parents generously hosted it, so we had several people calling and asking things, but she handled it like a champ. When I called to let her know about bringing in a groom's cake, she made sure they had a cake table ready and noted in our packet that the cake could only be mentioned to me (since it was a surprise to DH). Since we only had 20 people there, we ordered off the menu for our food, and DH's parents pre-selected several wines for our table. The wait staff was very attentive- the wine sat chilling on a table, but no one ever got up to refill their glass because the waiters were already on it. Plus, the food there is always yummy! (FYI- if you want to have a banquet or anything at Hereford House, check out KMBC's epons online for 10% off banquets and catering!)

The food was good, the service was great! We had our rehearsal in the Dipardo Room and it looked very nice. I would not recommend for parties over 40 ish.
