We recently had our wedding at 10 South on Friday, November 1st, and the experience was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. From our initial tour to the day of the wedding and every meeting in between, the team at 10 South, especially Lindsay (Venue Manager) and Audrey (Event Manager), went above and beyond to make our day seamless. They took the stress out of planning with their coordinator packages, in-house DJ, and trusted list of preferred caterers, allowing us to fully enjoy the process. Their recommendations for furniture and decor rentals were spot on, making it easy to create the perfect atmosphere. I genuinely can’t recommend 10 South enough—if I could plan ten more weddings, I would host them all here!

Harmony was a huge help during the planning process and made sure we had every detail in line. The new event space is so gorgeous and we had so many compliments from our guests about how amazing the venue was. It was so much fun to have our guests walk around the farm and see the animals as well. We also purchased our flowers from Rosewood, they not only fit our budget but they turned out stunning.

Worked several events with Marilyn and her team over at the Highland Loft. I'm always impressed with the venues setup options and hospitality. Always a pleasure bringing clients vision to life over years of experience. Excited to be back this fall! This is one of my fav venues in Elgin.
