We have a new addition.....Harbin Construction, LLC gifted us a Redpointe Maple for the SE area of our building. Thank you to Landscape Consultants LLC for planting this beauty and securing it against the Kansas wind! It was as easy as placing the flag where we wanted it and voila!

Nighttime photos, this time of year are so magical, especially with the outdoor lighting options. May, June, and September are beginning to fill up for 2026, schedule a tour if you are interested in our remaining dates!

Our Open House held last Saturday was everything we hoped for—and we couldn’t have done it without the amazing people who helped make it happen.

To our family, friends, and local businesses who showed up with time, talent, and support: thank you. This space was shaped by grit, generosity, and genuine community.

We’re excited for what’s ahead and can’t wait to welcome more memories to this place we’ve built together.

With gratitude,

The Long Family

Construction update! It’s been a busy couple weeks. The second patio was poured and is ready to be covered. Indoor and outdoor lighting is nearing completion and progress continues on the deck and building exterior. There’s a lot of color showing up as well with paint and stain!

With all this progress we’re planning an open house on Saturday, June 14th. Stay tuned for updates!

What a difference a week makes! There certainly won’t be a lack of views from the inside with all the new glass. Construction of the covered patio should start soon, and with the drywall primed, some paint on the walls. We’re planning an open house late spring, so stay tuned for updates!

What a great way to start the week! Lots of glass going in today. The deck is nearing completion as well. Excited to see how all the spaces take shape!

Construction update! After welcoming some nice weather, things have been moving along! HVAC and electrical are nearing completion. The composite deck will be installed later this week and we're anticipating the same for the wall of glass garage doors and overhead door next week! The addition of drywall has really made the space take shape. Looking forward to spring and planning our open house!

Engagement season is here, and construction is underway! We are on track to be completed by mid-March, creating a beautiful space for upcoming celebrations.

Fun info:
Engagement season peaks from Thanksgiving to Valentine's Day, with December being especially popular for proposals.

June and October are the most popular months for weddings, with June's summer warmth and October's fall charm.

Took advantage of the weekend weather to start on the outdoor ceremony space. It was a perfect spot to enjoy another beautiful Kansas sunset!
