BECOMING THE MONROE
While we're new to West Des Moines, you can feel confident that our team has the experience to exceed all of your expectations.
OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS
In 2017, Abbott Events opened it's doors to Kansas City's wedding and corporate events scene. After five years, four venues, and over 500 successful events hosted, we decided it was time to expand the celebrations beyond Kansas City!
After successfully opening The Winslet in Wichita, KS, we set our eyes on West Des Moines as our next location.
BEHIND THE NAME
The name "The Monroe" was intentionally crafted to incorporate the Abbott Events brand and experience. Following suit with The Harlow and The Bardot - named after legendary actresses Jean Harlow and Brigitte Bardot, we choose to model our newest venue after the enduringly iconic Marilyn Monroe.
Known for her timeless beauty, elegant simplicity, & warm disposition, we strive to embody and share these same characteristics with everyone who comes through the front doors of The Monroe.
