The North Apothecary Loft (Suite 500) is a 3,300 square foot loft gracing the north half of the fifth floor of The Apothecary Building at 140 N. 8th Street, in the heart of Lincoln’s Historic Haymarket District.
The North Apothecary Loft is offered on a unique basis—we do NOT bundle the food and beverage with the room, which is what you will find with other venues. When you book an event in the North Apothecary Loft, you will receive complete control over the food and beverage catering—thus allowing you to save thousands of dollars compared to other venues.
We offer a “wedding package” in the Apothecary Lofts. For example, many bridal parties have hosted a number of events here, including:
1. Rehearsal dinner,
2. Sleepover/bachelorette party for the bride and her friends (envious grooms often book the South Apothecary Loft and have their own pre-wedding night before),
3. Location to prepare for the wedding,
4. Pre-wedding brunch,
5. Wedding ceremony (or host outdoors in the Haymarket Square Courtyard),
6. Wedding reception,
7. Wedding night accommodations for the bride and groom (to enjoy the beautiful amenities such as the whirlpool and fireplace),
8. Gift opening brunch the morning following the wedding.
