We LOVED our wedding reception at Le Meridien! The reception space was at the top of the hotel and had great views and even a peak of the Chicago skyline in the distance. More elevated and chic space than a typical stuffy ballroom. Charmagne was amazing to work with, answered all of our questions, and was helpful day of the wedding too. The food selection was EXCELLENT- way better than stereotypical wedding food. Highly recommend the late night snack option and signature drink. And at the end of the night it’s so convenient to just hop on the elevator back to your room. We’ve already been back to celebrate our one year anniversary at the restaurant on the same floor as the reception space. Highly recommend this fantastic venue for your wedding!!!
