Loft Lucia is a West Loop event space known for its 4th-floor rooftop terrace, giving Chicago couples skyline views for both their ceremony and reception in one location. 312FILMS has filmed weddings here and knows the space’s light, layout, and flow well enough to move through the day without getting in the way of it.
A Wedding We Have Filmed at Loft Lucia
Jasmine and Rythus were married here on August 8, 2020. The couple got ready at the W Lakeshore, where Jasmine shared private reveals with her mother and grandmother before a first look with her father, and Rythus did a suit reveal with his dad. They chose an unplugged ceremony on Loft Lucia’s 4th-floor terrace, with rose honors for both mothers and a processional set to “Share My Life.” After a recessional to “Walk It Talk It” by Migos, the bridal party headed to Lurie Garden for portraits before returning to Loft Lucia for a reception with specialty cocktail bars, a room reveal, and a sparkler send-off.

Filming Weddings at Loft Lucia
The rooftop terrace means natural light is the main character for most of the day, so we plan our camera positions around sun angle and timing rather than fighting it. Because ceremony and reception happen in the same building, we can move fluidly between spaces without long gaps in coverage, and we’re comfortable working within unplugged-ceremony requests since we’ve done it here before.
What a Loft Lucia Wedding Costs
Pricing depends on guest count, date, and catering package. Contact Loft Lucia’s events team directly for current rental and catering rates.
FAQ
Is Loft Lucia’s rooftop covered or open-air?
The 4th-floor terrace is open-air, so ceremonies and cocktail hour are weather-dependent; the couple should confirm the venue’s rain plan directly.

Yes. Jasmine and Rythus chose an unplugged ceremony on the terrace, and we’re set up to film that format without needing guests’ phones out of the shot.
Does Loft Lucia work for both ceremony and reception?
