“Many venues we researched already had a lot of character on their own and it was hard to find one that accurately reflected our vibes. At first I was hesitant because most of the gallery is light and airy and I wasn't sure it would be the type of moody we wanted to achieve, but the space is a beautiful blank canvas. When we went for a tour I knew it was the right choice. You don't need dramatic decorations, just simple things and lighting. Several weddings I've attended were at places where multiple events were going on at once and it felt crowded and confusing. Here you get the whole building to yourself and it felt very exclusive and intimate. Our wedding was a winter night by candle light and they reflected beautifully in the large windows and created a sanctuary of warm light on the cold night. It made me feel like royalty and it wouldn't have been the same anywhere else. My guests described the night as magical. The venue team was so understanding and accommodating. They went above and beyond to make sure it was everything we wanted. They were easy to reach and quick to respond. I hope I have the opportunity to use this space again.”

“CityGate Grille is THE hidden gem in Naperville! I have DJ'd several times at CityGate Grille and this is one of the few venues in the Chicagoland area that I will refer to my clients. First of all, the staff that you work with is literally second-to-none. Barb is extremely nice, professional, always has a smile on her face and is willing to go above and beyond to make sure that your wedding is absolutely perfect! The staff on the day of your wedding are timely, professional, courteous, and will stop at nothing to give you one of the best experiences of your life! Even at a vendor table, they treat you with respect and ask if there is anything we need - and, again, that's just at a VENDOR TABLE! Secondly, the space is beautiful! CityGate's lawn and patio ceremony areas are perfect! Confined to just your family and friends, there will be no worries of having random people walking by during your ceremony - which I personally love as your ceremony needs to be intimate between you, your spouse, and your guests. The actual reception space is gorgeous! Floor-to-ceiling windows looking out to the patio coupled with aesthetically-pleasing ceiling lights and bar with all of the fixin's for that perfect cocktail will keep you and your guests more than satisfied throughout your reception. Finally, the service is FIVE STARS ACROSS THE BOARD! This should be the single most important aspect of selecting your wedding venue. As I stated above, from your first meeting down to the minuscule details, Barb and her team have it covered 100%. Everyone will treat you with kindness, respect, and will be genuinely excited about your celebration! Do yourself a favor and look no further than CityGate Grille for your wedding reception. You won't regret it for a moment!”

“"I can't recommend Seven Bridges Golf Club enough! From their beautiful ceremony space to the fantastic onsite bar and catering, they truly offer an all-in-one experience that made wedding planning a breeze for us. Our sunset ceremony was absolutely breathtaking, with the sun setting over the rolling hills of the course, creating the perfect backdrop for our special day. The venue itself is stunning, but what really sets Seven Bridges apart is their exceptional staff. Every member of the team, from the waiters to the bartenders, was amazing, but a special shoutout goes to Roisin, who was an absolute gem throughout our entire year of planning. She was always responsive, supportive, and a wealth of knowledge. On the day of our wedding, Jen stepped in and ensured everything went off without a hitch. Her professionalism and calm demeanor were exactly what we needed. As a couple who planned everything ourselves, it was incredibly reassuring to hear our parents rave about the outstanding service they experienced. If you're looking for a venue that combines convenience, elegance, and a top-notch team, Seven Bridges is the perfect choice!"”

“Started off our experience with the amazing Jill. She did everything just right and went beyond our expectations. When looking for a venue it can be very over whelming. Jill took that away from us right away. She explained everything to us in detail and broke it down. We then had the pleasure of working with the amazing Javi. He makes an excellent addition to Jills team. When I say this man was on top of everything I am not over exaggerating. He texted and called, and kept us on to date on everything. The day of the wedding and rehearsal Javi took top tier care of us and we will forever be grateful for the Bolingbrook Golf Club team for making our day extra special.”

“We absolutely loved having our wedding at Monte Bello Estate! One of my favorite things about the venue was being able to get ready on site and have our entire wedding day unfold in one place. We had our ceremony at the gazebo, which was absolutely beautiful, and our cocktail hour looked stunning. Moving from one space to another throughout the day felt effortless and seamless. They also had golf carts available to transport guests from the parking lot to the ceremony site, which was such a thoughtful touch and made things easier for our guests. One of the biggest things that gave me peace of mind when choosing Monte Bello was knowing that even if it rained, our wedding would still be beautiful. We had a May wedding, so rain was always a very real possibility, but I genuinely never felt overly worried about it. The inside of the venue is gorgeous on its own, and all of the windows still allow you to see the beautiful scenery while bringing in so much natural light. Even more importantly, their backup indoor ceremony space does not feel like a “Plan B.” It is beautiful in its own right and still allows for that grand entrance moment I had always envisioned. Knowing I would be happy with either ceremony option took so much weather-related stress out of the planning process. I was also initially nervous about the food because that was such an important part of the guest experience for us. Attending both the food tasting and Raise the Bar event made me feel even more confident in our venue choice. And somehow, the food was even better on our wedding day than it was at the tasting, if you can believe it! We were so happy with everything. Another one of my favorite things about Monte Bello was their network of vendors. They work with so many amazing vendors and provided recommended vendors from the very beginning. Having vendors who already knew the property and were familiar with the venue helped bring our entire wedding together perfectly and made the planning process so much easier. Communication was amazing as well. I honestly didn't have many questions in the beginning, but naturally, as we got closer to the big day, we had more questions and a few last-minute things come up. The team was always incredibly responsive and answered us quickly, which gave us so much peace of mind during those final weeks. Monte Bello gave us the romantic garden wedding we envisioned while also making the logistics of the day feel incredibly easy. From getting ready on site, to our gazebo ceremony, to cocktail hour and the reception, everything flowed beautifully. Our guests loved the venue, the food was amazing, and our photos turned out gorgeous. We couldn't be happier that we chose Monte Bello Estate for our wedding day and would absolutely choose it again.”

“Northfork Farm hosted our absolute dream wedding! The venue was absolutely gorgeous, and everyone was great to work with! Pete answered all of our questions throughout the process, and Leann took the day of stress away! We had multiple meetings with Leann before the wedding to communicate our vision, and get a full walkthrough of what we wanted the day to look like. Day of, all we had to do was bring her our stuff (which we actually got to do the night before at the rehearsal which was a bonus!) and she took care of the rest. She set everything up exactly how I envisioned it, and allowed my husband and I to just live in the moment rather than feeling like we were working or hosting. The property was gorgeous and incredibly well maintained. We had access to it all day and the salon was the perfect space to get ready in. There are tons of great places for photos, and some fun things that you don’t get anywhere. One, the horses! They are so friendly and adorable. Two, the fire pit! We had s’mores as a late night snack which our guests loved. And three, the pool! The pool is was what made my husband and I fall in love with the venue because we immediately knew we wanted to jump in at the end of the night. Pete set up the perfect send off and we ran through a sparkler send off and jumped right in. Our day was perfect, and the venue was everything we dreamed.”

In Lieu of a wedding cake, we did pumpkin pie and apple cider donuts provided by the venue. It was beautiful and means a lot to me that this was a family-owned operation.

“The Barn at Blackberry Farm was the perfect venue for our September 2025 wedding! We stumbled across it when our original venue closed and had to rearrange our plans, and Tara and her team were a godsend. Tara was prompt in communication to us (even when we weren't), and had a great relationship with our vendor team as well, so there was a lot handled behind the scenes that we didn't need to worry about- which was so appreciative! Our guests really loved the indoor/outdoor setting and multitude of activities (the train during cocktail hour, walking around the grounds, the s'more's during the reception), and we had some guests who had some accessibility concerns which were all able to be addressed by Tara and her team. It was a warm on the day of our wedding, so we were worried about how cool the barn was going to be, but it ended up cooling down at night so it was perfect with the large barn doors being open throughout. Would highly recommend!!”
