The Apothecary Lofts and the Ridnour Room offer elegant event space and are located at 8th and P streets in the heart of Lincoln’s Historic Haymarket District.  The Apothecary Lofts are divided into two spaces, called the North and South Lofts, and including the Ridnour Room these three venues are available for all types of activities including weddings, rehearsal dinners, anniversary or birthday parties, graduations, business meetings and fundraising events.  Crystal Meister is the Manager of these event spaces.

Tell us a little about your family.- I have been married to my husband, Andy, for 2 ½ years and last April we were blessed with our daughter, Madilyn.

What do you see as the biggest turning point in your life? – Becoming a mother has definitely been the biggest turning point in my life so far.

What makes your business unique? – These are the only facilities in the region that give the client complete control over food and beverages, as many venues restrict their clients to a specific caterer or bar service.

What has been your most important achievement professionally? – I have the flexibility to improve our venues’ beauty and functionality to fit the needs of many more clients, and this has helped me to facilitate the growth of our business substantially in the last five years.

What is your favorite thing to do on a day off? – I LOVE to go shopping…however, I now spend most of my time shopping for Madilyn instead of myself.

What is the most unique or interesting thing about you that most people probably don’t know? - My maiden name is Jaeger, so my marriage to Andy created a “Jaeger-Meister” wedding.  Our wedding was highlighted on numerous websites and television shows, including Jay Leno, David Letterman, and Ellen.

What are you most proud of? – Knowing that I can handle anything that is tossed my way, including juggling a full-time career and raising a family.

Which talent would you most like to have? – I would love to be able to sing.  It would make singing lullabies to my daughter much more enjoyable…for her and my husband!

If you could choose any other profession to be successful in, what would it be? – Teaching.  I was an assistant pre-school teacher during college and loved working with children.

What is your favorite movie? – Footloose! Definitely the original version from the 80’s…Kevin Bacon is irreplaceable!

What is your favorite television show? – I am a reality tv junkie…but I have also always loved Grey’s Anatomy.

What is your favorite local restaurant? – Two of my lunchtime favorites are Vincenzo’s and Danny’s Downtown Deli.

If you could choose only one descriptive word to be remembered as, what would it be? – Passionate
