VENDOR SPOTLIGHT
How did you come to be a florist?
My flower journey began at the age of 14, when I secured my first job at a family-owned garden center. This blossomed into a series of roles in other familial landscape and garden enterprises, leading me to declare horticulture as my college major. Yet, as destiny would have it, I veered towards my other passion—music—spending 15 years nurturing the flourishing careers of country music artists. In 2017, I closed my promotion and marketing firm in Nashville, and alongside my husband, returned home to my love for flowers. It was then that I stumbled upon the world of cut flower farming and eagerly immersed myself. We began with a modest 700 tulips in our inaugural season, showcasing our bouquets at Very Violet, a local home decor shop. Throughout my journey in cut flower cultivation, I discovered an irresistible pull towards floral design and invested in my education. Nearly eight enchanting years later, we have blossomed into a storefront with a full floral design and production studio, nestled in the very location where our bouquet-selling adventure first took root.
What is your favorite part about being a floral designer?
Being a part of our community and forming meaningful connections with others through the beauty of flowers is truly amazing. I believe that flowers convey emotions and messages when words fall short. By harnessing the joy and elegance of flowers, I can assist people in expressing what matters most. I cherish the opportunity to collaborate with couples, designing floral elements that reflect their unique identity as a couple and enhance the ambiance of their special day.
What
does company name mean?
“Bel Fiore” pronounced, “BELL- FEE- OAR - EE,” means “beautiful flower” in Italian and is my way of honoring the 2 Italian American families I grew up working for along with my heritage.
What
are Bel Fiore Co.’s floral options?
We design florals for a variety of celebrations and provide an à la carte menu ideal for small weddings or for those wishing to allocate their budget toward personal florals for the wedding party. Our full-service option caters to couples seeking a comprehensive floral design experience, where we engage in every detail of their special day, from selecting linen colors to collaborating with other vendors to craft memorable floral moments throughout the event.
What is your number #1 tip when prioritizing your floral needs?
Invest in floral elements that will be prominently displayed and frequently photographed. If a floral arch is a priority but you also have numerous guest tables, consider a combination of smaller centerpieces, bud vases, and candles. This approach can help reduce costs, allowing you to allocate a greater portion of your budget to elements that will create a more significant impact.
What is one thing you wish more people knew about hiring a wedding florist?
Floristry encompasses so much more than just flowers. When you collaborate with a talented design company like Bel Fiore Co., you gain access to expertise in flower varieties, colors, sourcing, and harmonizing all these elements. Our unique advantage lies in our extensive knowledge of flower cultivation and our strong relationships with farms both locally and across the United States, complemented by trusted suppliers who help us secure the finest blooms. We are well-informed about seasonal availability and know the best growers for specific flowers (and sometimes, they come directly from our own farm).
Behind the scenes there is a significant amount of preparation, coordination of logistics, not to mention the labor that goes into creating each piece and for our onsite installations, the engineering and building of each floral structure. Many people assume they are only paying for flowers; however, with a skilled florist, you are actually investing in their expertise, creativity in crafting floral art, and their ability to manage all the intricate details and logistics for your special day!
VENDOR SPOTLIGHT
What’s your story?
As a 4th generation Missouri entrepreneur, I have a genetic draw to being in business and helping people. Growing up, my grandmother was the ultimate baker always making the most stunning, delectable and delicious desserts…then telling us how they could’ve been made better! I was watching, listening and learning. I initially started baking through Girl Scouts, then for my friends and family, then learned the craft from trained professionals and after that it was a lot of trial and error. At the holidays, I hosted a “kookies and karaoke” event which was more champagne than talent, but it led to a desire to sweeten celebrations which eventually led me to open a bakery. Now I am known as “Kansas City’s Sweetest Lawyer” because I am both a confectioner and a counselor at law.
What types of desserts do you offer?
We generally are asked for cakes, cookies, cupcakes, macarons, pies, cookie cakes and cheesecakes. Modern dessert tables are very popular right now, as they offer the greatest variety but classic tall, tiered cakes are still extremely popular. You name it and we can get it done. We love incorporating YOU into your special day.
What makes you different from other bakeries?
We have a range of ways we can host your wedding, rehearsal dinner or any event for that matter. You bring us your ideas, and we will work on a custom plan that will meet your needs.
We can do mid-size or smaller more intimate weddings. We can do a more intimate wedding dinner vs a full reception. We can do a casual event with a buffet, or just heavy appetizers. We will work with you on meeting your budget.
VENDOR SPOTLIGHT
What makes your DJs different from other wedding DJs?
Our DJs are true professionals who specialize in live mixing, ensuring your wedding has a seamless flow and an energetic atmosphere. We prioritize creating a memorable, personalized experience for every couple by reading the crowd and tailoring the music to match the mood of the moment.
What other services do you offer besides DJing?
In addition to our skilled DJs, we provide a wide range of services to enhance your wedding experience. From photo booths and uplighting to cold sparks and “dancing on a cloud,” we offer a variety of add-ons to make your special day truly unforgettable.
How do you help couples create a personalized wedding experience?
We work closely with couples to understand their vision, preferences, and style. Whether it’s curating the perfect playlist, setting the mood with lighting, or offering unique effects like cold sparks, we tailor every element to reflect their personality and make the celebration one-of-a-kind.
What’s the most popular service package among your clients?
Our VIP package is the most popular, including DJ services for both the ceremony and reception, along with uplighting to set the perfect ambiance. It’s designed to cover all the essentials while offering a tailored and seamless experience from start to finish, perfect for couples looking for a comprehensive entertainment solution.
What advice would you give couples when planning their wedding entertainment?
Start by thinking about the vibe you want for your reception. Choose entertainment that reflects your style and keeps your guests engaged. Be sure to ask about additional services like lighting and effects, which can transform the atmosphere and take your wedding to the next level.

What makes Piropos Event Space different from other venues?
We are a one stop shop which means we not only offer the dinner, reception & ceremony/chapel space, but we have onsite catering through our restaurant which provides less stress in planning your big day. We also have ample parking next to our space, hotel accommodations across the street, so less to worry about for you and your guests.
Good food is the “Bride’s Gift” to her Guests! Piropos offers terrific food and service using the same Argentine ingredients that have made the Piropos name recognized for great dining. Attractive pricing is available and because we are a fall service restaurant you have a wide choice in excellent menu selections that are generally not available in other locations.
Highlights of Piropos menu are empanadas, grilled meats, seafood, fresh salads and vegetables with a touch of Spanish, Italian, French, and other ethnic foods reflecting the cosmopolitan nature of Argentinean dining. The food is simple, not particularly spicy. Piropos receives outstanding reviews by all of the local media and has been awarded the Best View, Best Food and Service in several publications. Piropos menu items are prepared fresh and offered with outstanding service.
Tell me more about your Buenos Aires Room & Chapel? Are you flexible with our plans?

The chapel seats up to 100+ guests who can then join the reception simply by opening the door into our Buenos Aires Room. There's a dance floor with food and beverage service from Piropos.

BOSS BAKERY
For many years I made a milk chocolate fudge that I gifted my friends and family through the Christmas holidays. Unfortunately, during the pandemic I was unable to keep this tradition going and the recipients of this chocolaty treat stated how much they missed it and looked forward to it each year. With a big, PLEASE from my Choc-a-holic husband Max, I decided to make this sweet, creamy fudge available all year round. And I must admit, being able to eat this fudge every day makes me very, very happy!
KC Scoop Coupe is ready for you! This cutie patootie will be loved by everyone at your upcoming event. Up to 4 flavor choices from either Belfonte Ice Cream or Betty Raes Artisan Ice Cream. Perfect for any event! We would love to bring some sweet treats to you and put a smile on everyone’s face.
