“We had our wedding at Chicago Winery in May and we cannot recommend the venue enough! Having everything handled “in house” made the entire planning process stress free. At the same time, the entire CW team was amazing to work with to help bring our vision to life and make even the little details feel custom for us. From the first venue tour, to getting to try all the food at the unique CW couples tasting, and now being able to go back to the wine bar any time for a date night, CW made the entire process enjoyable and made us feel special.
We also had the pleasure of having Chris assigned as our Event Manager and we cannot speak highly enough! He was such a joy to work with, had great suggestions every step of the way, and made sure even our little notes were executed flawlessly. We were consistently met with collaboration and that allowed us to bring our vision to life. One of the main things that stuck out for us is that we wanted our late night snack Chicago Hot Dogs to have a different presentation. Chris advocated for us, put the plans together with the CW culinary team, and made it all happen behind the scenes. It was a small detail, but something that really meant a lot to us. He also helped us schedule our Ketubah Ceremony in the Barrel Room, which was a super cool and unique touch, even incorporating some family traditions too. From meeting at the tasting, to helping us perfect our dip literally minutes before the ceremony, we were so lucky to have Chris by our side.
From the planning assistance, the venue space and indoor/outdoor options for various parts of the day, to the quality of the food and cocktails, Chicago Winery is truly a top tier venue in the city. Months later, we’re still getting rave reviews about the food and CW team from our guests.”
