A Historic Wedding Venue in the Heart of Manhattan, Kansas

Imagine saying “I do” inside a building with real history — exposed brick, soaring ceilings, and a century of Manhattan character, transformed into a wedding venue unlike anything else in the Flint Hills. At The Press, your ceremony and reception can share one unforgettable space, giving your day room to move from your first kiss to your last dance without ever leaving the building.

Ceremony & Reception, All in One Place

The Press’s open floor plan works as both a wedding ceremony venue and a wedding reception venue, so your guests never have to relocate between “I do” and the dance floor. Our team will help you configure the room — ceremony seating, cocktail hour, and reception layout — around your specific timeline and guest count.

An Indoor, Historic Wedding Venue

Kansas weather can be unpredictable — The Press gives you a fully indoor wedding venue with the charm couples usually have to search for in a barn or outdoor setting. Original exposed brick, industrial-meets-vintage details, and a flexible layout mean your photos and your reception both get the same one-of-a-kind backdrop, rain or shine.

Room for Your Whole Guest List

The Press comfortably seats up to 250 guests, with round guest tables, rectangle tables, cocktail tables, and black folding chairs included in every wedding rental. Setup/teardown staff and bartending staff are available to add on, so your day runs smoothly from load-in to last call.

Convenient for Out-of-Town Guests

Located just minutes from downtown Manhattan and Kansas State University, The Press sits close to the city’s hotels and event-friendly lodging — making it easy for out-of-town family and wedding party guests to find a place to stay nearby.
