Lahaina Loft answers growing demand for unique event cenues on Maui
Lahaina Loft, a contemporary oceanfront event space is Maui’s newest premier venue for weddings, corporate events and social gatherings, meeting the growing demand for alternative celebration venues on the island. The quintessential loft located on historic Front Street, features white walls, wood floors and large windows as well as an outdoor lanai (balcony) offering picturesque Maui ocean and sunset views.
Featuring 2,000-square-feet of air-conditioned event space, the spacious layout delivers limitless capabilities for a truly customized experience. Whether planning a corporate or hospitality event, intimate wedding ceremony and reception or a private social gathering, Lahaina Loft is the perfect setting to host up to 150 guests.
“The open-concept design allows for hosts to easily transform the space in the look and style they desire,” says Denise Black, Lahaina Loft managing partner and creative visionary. “With the help of our expert event planners and valued relationships with specialized vendors, we can bring your vision to life.”
Lahaina Loft also uses a business model as versatile as its space. Clients have the option to partner with professional coordinators and their preferred vendors or work directly with Lahaina Loft, tapping into an extensive list of Maui’s most notable chefs and reputable wedding and event professionals.
Formerly a restaurant, the multi-functional space is outfitted with a commercial kitchen with plenty of room for workstations and kitchen preparations. This enables seamless operations for occasions involving outside catering. Ceiling tracks allow for elegant chandeliers and hanging illumination equipment with dimmer controls for dramatic lighting while eliminating the need to conceal electrical cables and cords. The reception space is an event planner’s blank canvas, framed with architectural details and modern touches complemented by Lahaina Town’s historical charm.
Another unique offering of Lahaina Loft is fostered by its ideal location, allowing for a multitude of personalized experiences imaginable from exclusive receptions downstairs in Lahaina Galleries to private cooking classes with renowned Maui chefs.
“Events have been trending in the direction of enhancing the guest experience and creating unique memories,” added Denise Black. “We’re also seeing events move indoors to allow for more flexibility in décor and to eliminate the concern of how unfavorable weather conditions may affect the event.”
