Maceli's is an authentic combination of trendy industrial and modern elegance. Once Lawrence's downtown drive-thru lumber yard, it was converted into a commercial laundry production facility in 1963. Forty years later, Maceli's relocated to this location and transformed it into one of Lawrence, Kansas's most popular spots to host wedding celebrations. Our venue can comfortably accommodate weddings from 75 to 350. Following your ceremony in the Ballroom, your guests can enjoy a cocktail hour in our newly renovated Bistro Room while our staff transforms the Ballroom and Mezzanine for your reception.

We are conveniently located just one block south of the New Hampshire Street Parking Garage and Town Place Suites by Marriott. Since 1995, we have been catering events of all sizes in and around Lawrence, and we look forward to helping you with your next event, whether it's at our place or yours.

Five Stars

My husband and I are so happy we chose Maceli's as our reception venue. Everything was amazing from decor to service. The staff helped my family set up the decorations and helped gather them at the end of the night. The food was wonderful. We were so glad to find a venue that did their own catering. Every staff member was helpful, and truly went above and beyond to make sure our reception ran smoothly. Special shout out to Shelby who also helped us during the planning process. We greatly appreciated her help with our questions and assistance with putting together the details. All of our guests complimented the beauty of the ballroom and the friendliness of the staff. If we ever decide to host another event in Lawrence, we will definitely use Maceli's as our venue again!

Wedding Reception

We had used Maceli's for our daughter's wedding reception and dance ten years ago and were so pleased with them that we had them again this year for our son's wedding reception and dance. The venue is beautiful, the staff is professional, flexible and so easy to work with. The food was super delicious and we had many compliments on the menu. Overall Maceli's is a classy place with hard working employees who are very competent and respectful. I recommend this venue to anyone looking for a place in Lawrence.
