About

On WeddingWire since 2013

Lacuna Events by LM is a one of a kind event venue located in Chicago. Established in 1897, this expansive 250,000 square-foot property was once the world’s largest macaroni factory. The space has since been expertly restored and offers couples an ideal location to celebrate their union in style.

This five-story venue offers a range of options for your upcoming wedding celebrations. Lacuna’s spacious Skydeck, with sweeping views of the Chicago skyline, is a picturesque backdrop to exchange your “I Do’s” in the warmer months.

The newly renovated Magik Street, located on the first floor, is the ideal space to gather for cocktails. The space includes a restaurant style show kitchen, custom bar and a landscaped deck with gas firepits.

Indoors, Lacuna offers two separate events spaces perfect for any celebration. The first floor Reverie Gallery, featuring a salvaged shipping container bar, hand crafted cedar bench seating and abundant eclectic charm, can accommodate up to 350 for a seated reception.

The fifth floor La Galleria offers private access to the SkyDeck and includes a custom bar area, dimmable bistro lighting and large picture windows with views of the Chicago skyline.

All catering needs are handled by Lacuna’s in house caterer, LM Catering & Events. The team at LM will work with you to create a custom menu using fresh, seasonal ingredients while accommodating any dietary restrictions.

    Amazing Chicago wedding venue

    We had our wedding in La Galleria of Lacuna Lofts and it was amazing. We were won over during the walk-through by the art, wood floors, and large windows. The 5th floor was perfect for us since we were having a medium sized wedding (130 guests). Our event manager, Laura Thomas, was an absolute pleasure to work with. She took over when our prior coordinator transferred venue locations. Laura was on top of everything from the start and so quick to respond to any questions or concerns. She worked with our other vendors the day of and everything ran seamlessly. The rooftop was open for guest to see and take photos while we had our cocktail hour on the first floor. The food was great and we received many compliments from our guests. Everyone on the catering team from the servers, bartenders, and night catering manager were amazing. We are so happy we had our wedding at Lacuna!!

    Everything was incredible

    It was an easy decision for us to go with Lacuna. The location and space were great, and we really enjoyed working with Mary. Our decision was then reaffirmed when I got COVID 2 days before the wedding and we had to scramble to update the format of our event. Mary was extremely helpful and responsive as we brainstormed new ideas - she even had our wedding meals. cake, and champagne delivered to our house so we could experience our wedding reception virtually with our guests. While it was bittersweet not being able to attend in person, everyone loved the event, the food and the staff. Looking back, my husband and I can only smile at what great memories were made at our hybrid wedding. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose Lacuna!

    Lacuna Events by LM's reply:

    Michelle-
    Thank you! While we are disappointed we didn't get to celebrate with you in person, we're delighted to hear that Mary and our team was able to help make your wedding day one to remember. We wish you both nothing but the best as you begin your lives together!
