Wedding Venue in Lenexa Offering Private Lounges and Prep Suites

0:00

When you walk through our doors at The Mint, you'll find something most wedding venues overlook. We've created dedicated spaces where you and your wedding party can actually relax before the celebration begins. Our prep suites aren't just afterthoughts tucked into corners. They're full lounges designed for comfort, complete with the amenities that make your wedding morning memorable for all the right reasons.

Your Private Bridal Lounge Experience

Step into our bridal lounge and you'll understand what we mean by luxurious. We've built an entire suite that includes a coffee bar for your morning caffeine needs, a dedicated hair and makeup area with proper lighting, and a comfortable sitting area where you can gather with your bridesmaids. The bathroom features a walk in shower that photographers love for those getting ready shots. This isn't a cramped back room with folding chairs. It's your private retreat where you control the pace of your wedding day.

The Groom Saloon Sets a Different Tone

Downstairs, we created something unique for the grooms. Our Groom Saloon looks like a cowboy speakeasy, complete with its own style and atmosphere. The groomsmen have direct access to our basement arcade, so there's no standing around wondering what to do before the ceremony time. When you tour with us, make sure you see this space. It's one of those details that makes couples choose The Mint over other venues in Lenexa and Overland Park.

How Our Layout Supports Your Timeline

With Benjamin Hall accommodating up to 220 guests for your ceremony and The Mint main reception space seating 350 guests at round tables, your guests move smoothly through the day. But what really makes the difference is having those private prep suites separate from your event spaces. Your wedding party can get ready on site starting at 11 a.m., while our team sets up the ceremony and reception areas. No rushing from a hotel. No coordinating transportation for the wedding party. Everyone's here, comfortable, and ready when you need them.

The Vault Bar and Entertainment Options

Between our prep suites and event spaces, you'll find features that connect everything. The Mint vault bar serves as a natural gathering spot during cocktail hour. The entertainment room gives you overflow space when you need it. That 32-foot wide projector screen in the main hall means your slideshow or video actually gets seen by everyone. The Sonos sound system ensures your vows carry clearly, and those LED lights we installed throughout create whatever mood you want, from soft romance to party mode.

What This Means for Your Wedding Day

Having proper prep suites at your venue changes your entire wedding morning. Your photographer captures genuine moments in beautiful spaces instead of cramped hotel rooms. Your hair and makeup team has room to work efficiently. The groomsmen stay entertained instead of restless. You're five minutes from Overland Park hotels where your guests stay, but you're already at the venue, settled in, and enjoying the morning with your closest friends and family.

We include these prep suites with your 12-hour venue rental. You get the space from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m., tables and chairs for your guest count, and our on-site venue team handling all the venue logistics. You'll need to bring your Day of Coordinator to manage vendor arrivals and timeline, and you'll select from our catering vendor guide and bar packages. But the space itself, including those prep suites, comes ready for you.

Conclusion

We understand that selecting your wedding venue requires more than just browsing photos online. Come tour The Mint and see how our prep suites and private lounges create a different kind of wedding day. Walk through the bridal lounge, check out the Groom Saloon, and picture your wedding party actually enjoying those getting-ready hours.
