“We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful venue for our wedding! Everything was absolutely perfect, and the setting made our day even more special. A huge thank you to our event coordinator, Corinne. She was truly amazing from start to finish on our wedding day! She was so helpful, organized, attentive, and made sure everything came together perfectly. Having her there allowed us to relax, enjoy our day, and not worry about all the little details. Our wedding was everything we hoped it would be, and we’re so grateful to Corinne and everyone at the venue for helping make it such a beautiful and unforgettable day. We would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone looking for the perfect place to celebrate their special day!”

“We were honored to host our wedding at Meyers Castle in August 2024 and can’t imagine having our dream day anywhere else. My husband’s been familiar with the venue for years way back when they hosted events at the speakeasy. When he described it to me it sounded too good to be true but after touring the first time words can’t describe how beautiful it is. It’s an absolute dream venue with so many beautiful backdrops and details you don’t need much decor! The garden and statues are stunning! We honeymooned in Italy and have to say this venue rivals any Italian Villa. The staff were so accommodating and helpful. The food is amazing and for smaller weddings the Oakroom is so intimate and beautiful. I wish we could relive the day over and over again. It’s so romantic and can fit any size wedding. We didn’t use the bridal suite because it’s a separate fee but found the venues all inclusive rates to be extremely affordable. Our ceremony was in front of the gazebo with the castle in the background but any location would be equally beautiful. If you’re thinking about it let this be your sign it’s just as beautiful in person as in pictures. Our wedding was even featured on Brides as a hidden NWI gem. It’s only 30 min-1 hour outside of Chicago so it wasn’t an issue for guests to get to. Thank you Meyers Castle for hosting our dream day!”

“Jerry and his crew made out wedding day incredible! They helped run the whole day, they got the guests seated, kept everything on schedule, and ensured that Ben and I didn't have to worry about anything. When our flowergirl got stage-fright right before walking down the aisle, Jerry swooped in to save the day and helped her find her mom. We initially didn't plan to do a grand entrance into the reception, but Jerry and the DJ (Megan from Music that Moves) made one happen last-minute so our flower girl could have a second shot ar throwing her petals. You're not just getting a venue at Parkway, you're getting a whole team who will make your event run smoothly. If we ever do a vow renewal or anniversary party, we will be back!”

“We loved using the loft during our wedding week. We booked it out for the Bachelor party, and it was absolutely the perfect. The location is ideal as we could walk to everything downtown, but honestly a lot of the night was spent inside the loft itself. It's such a cool atmosphere and everything was well stocked with anything we'd need and more. 10/10, we would highly recommend this to anyone needing cool and versatile event space.”
