ABOUT US
Since 1991, Lon Lane’s Inspired Occasions has served the catering needs of Kansas City’s most prominent citizens and corporations. Catering is more than picking a menu. Every event is an experience. Our tenured and talented Event Planners and chefs bring to life the individual themes and dreams of each client.
