Our wedding at Meyer's Castle was nothing short of magical, and we owe so much of that to our incredible coordinator, Eva.

From day one, Eva was organized, thoughtful, and so genuinely caring. She made sure every detail was in place and that everything ran smoothly--not just behind the scenes, but for me personally as the bride. The day was beautiful, but hot, and Eva went above and beyond to make sure I stayed comfortable and calm. At one point when I was feeling overheated, she literally helped pin my hair up herself. That kind of kindness, grace, and hands-on support is something I'll never forget.

Meyer's Castle was the most stunning backdrop to our big day. The grounds are breathtaking, the atmosphere is so elegant, and our guests were completely blown away by the beauty of it all. Every part of the venue felt like it was straight out of a fairytale--from the ceremony setting to the castle charm that made the whole day feel surreal.

I truly can't imagine having done this without Eva by our side. She was a calm in the chaos, a true professional, and someone who genuinely cared about making our day perfect.

If you're thinking about booking Meyer's Castle--do it. And if you're lucky enough to have Eva as your coordinator, just know you're in the best hands. I'll be forever grateful for her and this dreamy venue that brought our love story to life.

Thank you, Eva & Meyer's Castle, for a day we'll cherish forever!

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!

My fiancé, Rica, and I didn’t originally plan on having our wedding and reception at Bay Pointe. We hadn’t looked at any place that far away, 1 hour from home. Two weeks before the wedding our original venue had a fire and we had to scramble to find a new location. Mariesa Colavincenzo, the Catering Sales Manager at Bay Pointe, came to our rescue. With her and her staffs’ help we were able to pull off a miracle and have a beautiful wedding using part of the restaurant and the deck, looking out on the lake… a perfect backdrop for our vows and the reception. Everyone remarked about how beautiful the setting was and also how wonderful the food was. We had 2 appetizers and a 3-entry buffet that was absolutely delicious! Rica and I thank Mariesa and everyone at Bay Pointe for making our wedding a wonderful reality when it seemed it might not happen at all. -Dr. Mark Crapo

I had my wedding Astoria Banquet Hall and it was absolutely incredible. Throughought the process, the management team (Max, in particular) was very helful in all regards. He made us feel welcomed, always reassured us, and always knew the answer to our questions before we even asked them. Instructions, choices, layout and format was all very clear. It was very helpful to a Type-A planner like myself. My wife and I had had our food tasting and the Chef was very friendly. He made us feel at home and the food was incredible. He and his staff made sure that all food accomodations were taken care of. On the day of the wedding, the staff was so kind and welcoming. They assisted us immediately in whatever we needed. It felt like we were working with Family. We recommend Astoria to any and all who want to have an amazing venue for any special event. But as always, you reap what you sow. We made sure that we and our party gave the up-most respect to Astoria Staff and Crew, and because of that, we were met with equal, if not more, kindness and respect! We're very grateful for them!

Writing this on our one-year wedding anniversary reminds us how much care and thought went into making our day so special. We exchanged our vows at the venue with a small group of only family and 2 officiants, and Charmagne and her team made the entire experience feel intimate, elegant, and truly meaningful. From the beginning, they were incredibly professional, organized, and attentive to every detail. They listened to our vision and offered thoughtful insight throughout the planning process, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free. What stood out most was how considerate they were with our guests. They handled dietary needs with great care and were especially attentive to my elderly parents, making sure they were comfortable and well taken care of. Looking back a year later, we are so grateful for the kindness, attention, and dedication they put into making our wedding day unforgettable. Thank you

The staff was amazing and the food was so good. The manager and service staff made sure we always had a drink in our hand, gave us space to chat and connect with our families and made us feel right at home. My mom has a food allergy, but they made a single dish for every course that she could eat and warned her when there was a dish that might cause issues. They made sure all of our family felt taken care of, which was so special to me. The food is top notch. Lasagna and risotto are definite highlights, so don't miss those!

We had the pleasure and privilege of working with Fabiola, Lisa, and Jill as our event managers at the Marriott Chicago Southwest at Burr Ridge for our wedding weekend in April 2025. Throughout the planning process (January 2024 - April 2025), we probably had more than 100 questions varying in detail, and Fabiola / Lisa consistently answered our questions holistically with patience and grace. The staff is very knowledgeable and experienced with hosting Indian weddings successfully, which made the planning even easier. When the time came, Marriott worked seamlessly with all of our vendors and shielded us from logistics that we didn't need to get involved with. This took a huge load off of our shoulders, and gave us the space to prepare for our big day. Beyond helping perfect the details of the actual wedding events, Marriott was very helpful and responsive with helping us manage our hotel guest room block. Whether we needed an ad-hoc report of our currently booked rooms and/or a quick turn-around of adding more rooms to the block, they were always quick and happy to help. We would truly use the word "perfect" to describe how the weekend came together and it would not have been possible without all of the help, support and guidance from the Marriott staff. Thank you so much, we will always be grateful! We would 100% recommend the Marriott at Burr Ridge for any of your events, you will be in fantastic hands!

When you think of stunning, elegant, calm, and beautiful - you can think of the Fairlie. We had our wedding here in mid-October of 2025 and it was nothing but spectacular. Both the bridal and groom suite were spacious and held more than enough room for everyone. The bridal sweet has excellent vanity stations and lighting, so hair and makeup can definitely be done here if preferred. We loved how much exposed brink was in the building, with very large windows which made the room seem intimate and elegant. The venue is gorgeous on it's own, so it doesn't need a ton of decorations if that is your preference. The stair case adds a special touch to any of the entrances throughout the day/night. There is a tuktuk you can utilize for your reception entrance or be used as a decorative piece - we rode into our reception this way and our guests called it "iconic." Also, the main entrance can open big enough so a food truck can drive into the venue - we did this and it was a huge hit with our guests. The staff were very responsive and accommodating - they helped personalize the venue and fulfilled our requests. There is a BYOB option, which is a huge plus in our opinion. My wife and I will always tell this story, but we knew right away that this would be the place we would get married. The Fairlie was the first venue that we saw, and as we were getting our tour, the tour guide walked right into the open space and said "and this is where you will be getting married". We both got chills, looked at each other, and thought, this is it. So, needless to say, thank you Fairlie for being such gracious hosts. We would recommend the Fairlie 100% to anyone who are looking for a venue for a wedding or event. - Kyle and Rachelle

From our very first call with Maria, we knew we were in the best hands. She was attentive, thoughtful, and truly set the tone for what would be an incredible experience from start to finish. Our wedding planners were absolutely amazing—guiding us every step of the way and making the entire process feel seamless and stress-free. By the time the big day arrived, everything felt effortless. The venue itself was clean, stunning, and the perfect backdrop for our wedding. The catering and bar teams were equally incredible—professional, attentive, and delivering impeccable food, drinks and service throughout the night.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Arbory as a wedding venue. From the moment we stepped onto the property, we were blown away by the modern jungalow vibes and stunning surroundings. The space is so beautiful and full of living plants that helped us stretch our floral budget while still creating a gorgeous blossoming space! The team at The Arbory was incredibly accommodating and flexible, allowing us to set up the space exactly as we envisioned for our special day. The bridal suite is amazing and provided a great space for us as a couple to step away and connect throughout the nice. I would also note that we loved the built-in photo/video booth! One of the most impressive moments was when they seamlessly flipped the ceremony space into the reception area, quickly and stealthily. It was truly a magical transformation. And I have to give a special shoutout to Shay, who went above and beyond to ensure that every detail was perfect and that we were happy. The Arbory truly exceeded our expectations and provided the perfect backdrop for our dream wedding. Thank you to the entire team for making our day so unforgettable.

I couldn't be happier with our decision to book The Carter as our wedding venue! The staff made the night go flawlessly. My wedding coordinator even commented how impressed she was with how quick their staff was able to move throughout setup during the day. She also complimented the catering coordinator as being a complete pro. With The Carter you are required to use their caterer, D'Absolute, but that was not a problem for us because the food was phenomenal. Wedding food can be hit or miss, but we had multiple guests raving about everything from the apps to the late night snacks. Chris allowed us to include 2 signature drinks and customized our bar menu to whatever we wanted. Since I got married on my birthday Chris even upgraded our glassware free of charge which was such a sweet, unexpected gesture! They are very flexible with how you want to use the space, which I loved because we were able to make the event truly unique. What sold me on the space is that you don't need to add much additional decor because it's so beautiful on its own. The connecting courtyard comes with string lights. The interior space includes multiple chandeliers and string lights over the dance floor. Most other places you'd need to bring those details in, and pay for them. What I also love about the space is you get the "lofty, urban" feel without all of the pillars/poles in a typical loft space. You get high ceilings and an open floor plan, which makes the space look so much nicer (in my opinion). The cost is a little pricier than other venues we explored, however I 100% think we paid for higher quality and I have zero regrets.
