Weddings & Showers
Whether you are planning the wedding, the rehearsal dinner, an engagement party, a bridal shower, or a baby shower, we have a unique, creative, and flexible event space for you.
These cooking challenges encourage collaboration, bringing your team together like no other activity! Choose your teams’ interaction level: from hands-on to limited cooking.
We have cooked up a batch of creative holiday party ideas for your group. Reserve your date and check it off your to-do list. We’ll take it from here.
Teams strategize, barter, and work together to get a meal done on time without a recipe in this fast-paced cooking competition, just like the TV shows!
With the help of our talented chefs, everyone gets involved in making dinner, then celebrates around the table!
Your best bet for impressing your guests with a unique lunch or dinner, where they are involved in the hands-on cooking, but just a pinch!
Move over, “Is It Cake” — we’re taking team building to a whole new level! Teams create customized cakes based on challenges and mystery decorations.
Design your own custom private class! With three on-site Chefs and 500+ classes to choose from, we’ll work with you to finalize a menu and activities customized to your group’s needs and skill levels.
Most of our interactive parties last about 2½ – 3 hours. It all depends on how long it takes your group to cook and how long to eat. The event is yours! We’ll create one that lasts exactly how long you would like it to.
We can host your event any day of the week or time of day, as desired, subject to availability of course.
Our pricing depends on numerous factors: the number of people, the time of year, day of the week, time of day, and what theme your party decides to go with. Please call The Center at 913-341-4455 and ask for Heather if you would like more information.
Please see our Private Events page for more information. Better yet, stop by and we will show you around. Our beautiful facility is comprised of two event spaces:
Absolutely! We are happy to work with you to design a custom private event that your guests will love.
Yes, we have hosted many birthday parties. At some parties, children can cook under the guidance of one of our expert instructors. Our staff has educated thousands of children over the years, and we host dozens of classes and summer camps each year for children.
We are also happy to host a party that is catered-only, so that the children and adults don’t have to do any of the cooking. Please call Heather at 913-341-4455 for more information.
We offer full bar service as desired, and charge by the drink. Choose from a full bar, beer/wine bar, specialty cocktails or a customized bar. If you want to bring in your own wine, we do charge a $40 per 750 ml bottle corkage fee.
First call Heather, our Event Planning Specialist, at 913-341-4455 and she will gladly work with you to find a date that works for you. To confirm an event, we generally require a deposit of $500 with a signed contract.
We generally don’t go off-site, and don’t offer catering services at this time.
