About Chapter II Events

Chapter II Events is an event venue in Jacksonville, Illinois, housed in a historic building that was formerly a college library at MacMurray College. It is presented as an all-inclusive wedding venue. The grand ballroom has large windows, arched entryways, shelves and chandeliers and accommodates up to 200 guests. A café space accommodates up to 40 guests and suits cake service or a break from dancing. The bar is set in the former library checkout area. Couples can choose an outdoor lawn ceremony followed by an indoor reception, a fully indoor ceremony and reception, or an optional ceremony in the chapel, with cocktail hour held indoors or on the lawn. The ballroom serves as the indoor option if weather requires moving the ceremony inside. Two on-site getting-ready spaces are available: a downstairs room with leather chairs and a pool table, and an upstairs salon with natural light, couches and mirrors. Rentals are all-inclusive and include tables, chairs, linens, china, glassware and flatware, with an in-house day-of coordinator. Rentals run Friday through Saturday, with Friday available for décor setup and a rehearsal. Open flame is not permitted. The building has a ramp at entry and no elevator to the second or third floors.
