Backwoods Venue 222 is nestled in the countryside of Missouri between Kansas City & St. Joseph. The stunning 30ft waterfall drapery & lights are graced by 2 balconies & 22 rooms that spaciously accommodate 300 guests. The outdoor versatility features our north patio with overhead lighting, a beautiful garden that leads to our original trappers lodge, and a restored windmill! Our venue holds the most beautiful sunsets & is a photographer's dream. Rich in history & handcrafted for celebration, we welcome you to our piece of paradise.

We've decided to take a new

approach to give credit where it is due; because what's a wedding without the photos? Take a scroll through our newly updated gallery where we've featured recent weddings taken by some of the best photographers in the midwest captured right here at Backwoods!
