A wedding is not just about one person and we believe that both parties should have their own space!

So, Gentlemen…welcome to the Groom’s Lounge🥃🎩

This space is equipped with Masculine hues, built in bar closet, ample soft seating, custom neon light feature, games, and a flat screen TV with ready to play X-Box.

The best part? The Groom’s Lounge is on a completely separate floor than the Bridal Suite so you never have to tip toe around each other to avoid ruining the first look. You’re welcome 😉

What’s your favorite part of the Groom’s Lounge?

Wedding Tip - Set a Wedding Planning Timetable

The minute you get engaged, everyone will be asking for your wedding date. But in reality, you won't be able to set an exact wedding date until other major decisions—like choosing (and booking) your venue—are made. So first, focus on determining a range of dates that'll work for you. The average engagement lasts 15 months, but also think about what season you'd prefer, any major holidays or family events you'd like to avoid conflicting with, and how long you predict you'll need to plan.

A Memorable Event Begins with an Unforgettable Venue

The Historic Post Office is a historic wedding venue located in Ottawa, Kansas with easy access to nearby cities like Kansas City, Olathe, and Lawrence.

Built in 1913, the Historic Post Office has been meticulously and lovingly restored for those who believe that the grander the location, the grander the love story. While many of the original architectural features can still be found throughout, Historic Post Office now features state-of-the-art amenities for couples and guests.

Our 4,000 square foot Ballroom that seats up to 200 guests reception style, or 300 guests in a cocktail setting. When you rent the entire venue, it includes use of the Ballroom, both of our Getting Ready Suites, the outdoor private Lawn, and the downstairs Speakeasy 1930's themed Bar and Lounge.

The Historic Post Office features a stunning limestone facade, towering ceilings, an elegant skylight, and stunning windows. We have kept The Vault, a perfect place to safeguard your memories, and have an old-world speakeasy in the basement for those seeking a swanky after-hours experience. Complete with expansive dressing rooms and hidden elements such as a cast-iron staircase, the Historic Post Office has managed to keep its original classic, timeless architecture in place while adding modern, fashionable touches.
