I had my wedding ceremony outdoors at Royal Scot Golf Course in October of 2019 and the scenery was beautiful. I also had my wedding reception indoors in Royal Scot’s North Room which is located upstairs and holds approximately 125 people. The North Room was very spacious and even included a dance floor and an outdoor balcony. All rooms at Royal Scot have full banquet staff which includes servers, bartenders, and chefs. Linens, cloth napkins, flatware, china and glassware are also included. The catering for all functions is provided by Royal Scot and they do a wonderful job. My guests were raving about the food; it was truly delicious. Royal Scot staff was extremely attentive and communicated well throughout the planning process and during the event itself. Royal Scot staff met all my expectations and so much more. Royal Scot is a wonderful venue and the event pricing is very reasonable. I highly recommend this venue.

Elizabeth Birch worked with us to helped us achieve the perfect wedding of our dreams. From the beautifully landscaped ceremony, photo, and reception spaces, to the outstanding food and service, there was no detail overlooked. Elizabeth helped us coordinate the entire wedding long-distance. I was in Florida, and the bride was in Chicago. But with her guidance, we were able to coordinate the local vendors needed to pull off a dream wedding.

We were truly blown away by our experience with FWB. We had the best wedding day, and the venue & service were such a big factor in that. Both Robin & Riley were phenomenal to work with- so patient, quick to respond and always answered the many questions we had. We loved doing the food tasting ahead of the wedding as well as the wine/beer tasting. Riley was there to walk us through the rehearsal the night before and was amazing on the wedding day to coordinate the ceremony and schedule throughout the night. I really appreciated how she checked in with us to make sure we weren’t overwhelmed and made sure that when we did take a minute to take a breath, there was food and drinks in the suite for us. We really loved being able to have the bridal suites for the day- it was awesome. The service for the reception was phenomenal. Staff always ensured we had full plates & drinks so that we could focus on interacting with guests. We cannot overstate how much we love FWB’s food. Not only at the wedding and throughout the tastings, but we had so many guests comment on how amazing all the food was. I highly recommend the rosemary pork and the chicken marsala. The mushroom ravioli was a fan favorite and we heard comments about it all night. Since the wedding we have visited FWB multiple times just to eat there because the food is that good. The coordination of the entire day was seriously flawless and took so much stress off our shoulders. We were able to focus on having fun while they ensured things were set-up, running on time and later taken down without us having to lift a finger (except for our own decor that we brought!). If you’re thinking about choosing FWB for your big day- do it! We had such a great experience and can’t stop talking about it.
