Huge thank you to the entire staff of the Makoy, who particularly Matt, Erin and Adrian who made sure that our wedding went smoothly and everything was perfect. Everyone was so nice and helpful. It was so appreciated when there are so many things to keep in mind and so many tasks to cross off your list. They made everything so much easier! The way everything came together looked absolutely wonderful and exceeded our expectations by far. The decor was done so beautifully and we were very impressed. The food was amazing, the bartender was great and super friendly and every single guest made comments to me about how wonderful the event was and how nice the venue was.

We had our wedding here on 10.26.2024 and it was the most magical, perfect day. The venue/planning team was so kind and responsive throughout the entire planning process (we booked the venue in March of ‘22 so, many questions were asked). The ‘rental room’ they offer relieves SO much stress of trying to find decorations and signage, I highly recommend adding it. The list of vendors they give you is a BIG help, utilize it. Our event manager was truly wonderful the day of, we are incredibly thankful to have had her help. A special addition to having a wedding here is being able to stay in a treehouse connected to the Grand Barn AND have friends & family stay at the venue the night of the wedding. How neat is it that your guests can just walk back and go to bed after a night of celebration and laughter?! I truly could not imagine a more beautiful venue to get married at. Everything exceeded our expectations and we can’t wait to come back and stay again!

We had a fabulous wedding reception at the Donauschwaben German Cultural Center (Lenau Park). Their entire staff—from their awesome coordinator Christine to their banquet captain and bar staff—was so kind, so professional, and most importantly made our guests feel welcome and taken care of. Christine came to every meeting organized and prepared. She understands the details as well as the emotions that go into planning a wedding and was a great part of our support system. She is fair and reasonable—even helped us make a German Hall a little more “Italian” for the bride. We could not have asked for a better partner! As for the venue itself, it was the perfect place to host 300 of our closest friends and family. The space was beautiful, bright and happy. Our guests were comfortably seated at 32 round tables of 8 to 10. The team made all of our décor visions come to life. The outdoor patio was welcoming and comfortable for guests as well. The dance floor is huge! Perfect for an Italian tarantella. I would also say the room is set up well acoustically—with 300 people in the room and music playing, you could still hear the other people at your table. The entryway was also perfect for our receiving line. We were happy to see that guests could enjoy their time—whether they wanted to dance the night away, sit and chat, or just enjoy the night air with family. The food was excellent—seriously excellent. We got so many compliments after the wedding! They have their buffet line down to a science with all of our guests being served in a reasonable amount of time. They also did a great job of meeting the needs of our gluten- and dairy-free guests. That is so hard to do when you are feeding so many people, and even these guests said they enjoyed their meals. Finally, the money we spent on this wedding reception was well worth the value. The food and beverage packages are incredibly fair for the quality and the amount of food your guests will be served. We were also able to add appetizers and some special add-ons at a reasonable rate. The linens are provided by a separate vendor, but even those costs were not too bad, and everything looked beautiful when it was decorated! While there are certain rules the venue must follow and sometimes we needed to negotiate the details, Christine was highly transparent and upfront with us, and always worked with us to find the right solution for our day. After hosting our wedding here, we would absolutely do it again with this space and this team. When it comes to the Donauschwaben, we strongly recommend them for your wedding reception and cannot say enough good things about their level of service!

The Boltes, who own and operate Arlington Acres, are phenomenal to work with. We can’t say enough good about our experience. Not only is their venue STUNNING, but it boasts an exceptional rain plan that allows you to leave your reception space untouched and still have plenty of room for guests to mingle for cocktail hour. Arlington Acres has two beautiful suites for the bridal party to get ready in, two equally gorgeous areas to host reception events, and a naturally beautiful outdoor ceremony space. Not to mention, there are so many great locations for photos that your photographer will love! Arlington Acres provides monthly open houses for booked couples so that you can do walk throughs with family, friends, and vendors, test decor, practice walk throughs, ask questions, and even do photo sessions. Sarah even went as far as to help us schedule a private time to do our engagement shoot on their property. We also booked majority of our vendors through the recommendations made by Arlington Acres. They have built an incredibly helpful website with all kinds of tips, suggestions, and measurement info. for their spaces. We booked Arlington Acres for both the Friday before our wedding and the full day of our wedding, Saturday. This gave us an additional day for set-up and we held our rehearsal dinner at the venue Friday evening. We looked at 5 venues with Arlington Acres being the first and nothing compared to the venue itself, or the hospitality and kindness shown by the Boltes. They are as invested in making sure your special day is flawless, as you are. Our guests are still talking about how beautiful their space and property are, and they loved the photo opportunities their sunflower patch (seasonal) brought to our day. If you’re questioning booking with Arlington Acres, just do it. You won’t regret it and you’ll love working with Sarah and her husband! If we had to do it over again, we would without a doubt still choose Arlington Acres!

We chose The Factory Event Center for our daughter’s wedding, and couldn’t have been happier with the decision. From our first meeting through the final goodbyes, April and her team were thoughtful, organized, and made everything easy. The gardens are truly a highlight. We toured in late spring, and were wondering how the garden ceremony space would look in the fall — it turned out to be absolutely breathtaking and the perfect backdrop. Every detail during the event ran smoothly: the setup, the coordination, the flow, and the atmosphere. Guests kept commenting on how beautiful everything was. We are so grateful to April and everyone at The Factory for making our daughter’s wedding joyful, memorable, and stress-free.

My husband and I got married on June 14th of this year. After doing quite a bit of research online for venues and visiting several as well, we decided to book our big day with The Wenbeck. From our initial meeting to the big day, communication was phenomenal. Skyler and Alexis were both extremely supportive, knowledgeable, positive and energetic which helped to make our day feel as special as possible. We felt that compared to other venues the pricing was competitive and Skyler was transparent about what their options included. There were no hidden extra costs/fees. Their facilities are very nice. We chose to have our ceremony and reception on site. For the ceremony, we had the choice of having it inside or outside. Outside they have a beautiful stamped concrete patio with a pavilion that overlooks their golf course and pond. We were planning to set seating up on the patio in front of the pavilion but there was a large risk of storms that day. We moved our ceremony into the pavilion. It just so happened that it ended up being a beautiful afternoon, however the pavilion provided perfect shade for us and our guests. The reception took place inside the main building and provided ample space for our just over 100 guests. The bar, buffet, dessert table, guest book and DJ were set up in different locations which allowed the guests to move around without being crowded in any area of the venue. The sun sets on the back of the building which provides for beautiful sunset photos on the golf course, as well as a gorgeous view from the venue as it has large windows across the back overlooking the golf course. Both Skyler and Alexis helped to keep things moving smoothly all day and it truly meant the world to us. From their help with setup, to relocating ceremony flowers to the main building for the reception, relocating signage and helping reload the film for our polaroid guest books and chatting with our super inquisitive nephew. They truly provided a wonderful experience.

I got married at the Kingsville Lodge on March 8th of this year, and it was truly a beautiful experience. The lodge itself is stunning and immaculate, with everything you could possibly need right at your fingertips. Sharyn, the owner, goes above and beyond to ensure your wedding day is nothing short of amazing. She even handled my photography! The landscaping is meticulously maintained, and you can tell a lot of thought goes into the upkeep of the property. We chose a wedding package that was perfect for my husband and me, which included photography, planning, decorations, setup, breakdown, and cleaning. Sharyn and Beth were incredible, going the extra mile to make sure my day was magical. I felt like a fairytale bride and didn’t have to worry about a thing. It was the perfect venue for our wedding, with 40 guests who all found it equally beautiful. The lodge offers multiple rooms that can accommodate up to 15 people overnight. The beds are incredibly comfortable, providing one of the best nights of sleep I’ve ever had. The atmosphere is relaxing, comfortable, and quiet. The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped with everything you might need. Our ceremony took place in front of the fireplace, which was breathtakingly beautiful in its simplicity. I highly recommend the Kingsville Lodge for weddings or any event. The property and house are well cared for, and Sharyn and her team are wonderful people. We also had our engagement photos taken there, and they turned out amazing. Inside, the lodge features beautiful wood trim throughout. The bathrooms are accommodating, with jacuzzi tubs in some rooms and multiple other bathrooms available. My 82-year-old mother loved it and found it easy to navigate. My husband and I stayed in the suite, watching the snowfall outside the windows, which was incredibly beautiful. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend this place for so many reasons.

I had a fantastic experience working with the Meeker’s Venue team. They were willing to accommodate my requests for things like a slideshow in place of a father daughter dance, or having my friend play the music for our first dance live. We used their decor, and they had a great selection for the simple, green and brass theme I was looking for. They were friendly, timely, didn’t bother us with anything the night of and made sure to go through our family and friends instead. The venue itself, a beautiful brick church, is so cute and provided a great backdrop for all of our photos. We easily fit our wedding of around 130 people in the space. And their price fit well into our budget. I had a great time in the meetings leading up to our wedding, and an awesome party the day of. Highly recommend.
