“Our wedding at Meyer's Castle was everything we dreamed it would be, and we owe so much of that to Nancy, our coordinator. From our first conversation through the big day, Nancy was thorough and detail-oriented in every way, making sure we understood exactly what to expect! We had a fantasy themed wedding, so some of our requests were a bit unusual, but Nancy handled it with no problem. She was attentive to our needs and always there when we needed guidance or support. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous—the ethereal atmosphere and elegant spaces made the perfect backdrop for our celebration. Both of the bridal suites are stunning! Literally every inch of the place is a great photo op. Nancy's incredible work kept everything running smoothly, and we felt taken care of every step of the way. The quality and value we got from Meyer's Castle was worth every penny, and we'd recommend them to any couple planning their wedding!! (Also the peacocks were so adorable!)”

“Rolling Green Country Club is an excellent choice for a wedding venue weather it be for just for a ceremony or reception. The onsite coordinator, Anna, and her team were incredibly amicable, helpful, and calm throughout the entire ceremony setup. Anna's coordination with my team during the ceremony setup made the process a breeze. Additionally, Anna and her team did an outstanding job cueing the wedding party, bride and groom, and guests for their timely entrances, which tremendously helped ensure a smooth ceremony flow. I would highly recommend Rolling Green Country Club to any couple looking for a beautiful venue with a professional and attentive staff.”

The Grove Redfield Estate 
Rating: 5.0 (1 review)
Glenview, IL

Say "I Do" at The Redfield Estate Nestled on National Historic Landmark grounds, this vintage 1930s estate offers a romantic woodland setting for weddings and special events. Accommodate 100–125 guests depending on the season and service style. Your rental features the historic house with original stained glass windows and fireplace, a 30' × 60' stone pavilion, gazebo, beautiful wooded grounds with ponds and fountains, tables, chairs, and complimentary parking. We partner exclusively with eight full-service caterers who handle food, beverages, staffing, linens, equipment, setup, and breakdown. Catering typically runs $130–$175+ per person, separate from venue rental. Bistro-lit trees and lamp-lit walkways create an enchanting atmosphere for ceremonies, receptions, and unforgettable photos year-round.

“We booked our Halloween wedding at The Grove Redfield Estates two years in advance without even stepping foot on the property, and it's a decision we would make all over again. Originally drawn to photographs of the historic home, the cutest gazebo, the welcoming pavilion, and the surrounding nature, our conversations with the venue manager Deborah (and later Ellie) truly sold us. They worked seamlessly with all our vendors and coordinator, offering suggestions along the way. The day of our wedding was absolutely perfect, and it's a milestone we will never forget. We drove away at the end of the night feeling that we (and by that, we mean The Grove and all the vendors) had pulled off a magnificent feat that couldn't have gone any better. On top of that, the weather was perfect, and the colorful leaves accentuated the venue's fairy tale atmosphere. So happy we chose The Grove for such an important day!”

“Astoria Banquets and Events Venue was an ABSOLUTE DREAM to work with for our wedding. All through the planning process, their communication was incredibly responsive, reassuring, and detailed. The venue itself is truly glamorous and elegant, yet versatile enough to suit any couple's style. The bartenders, wait staff, and coordinators provided incredible service, ensuring we didn't have to worry about a single thing on our special day. In fact, Max at Astoria was better than any wedding planner we could have hired. For brides with a desire for minimal planning and a tight budget, we highly recommend considering Astoria, especially if booking in the off-season or on a Friday or Sunday. We got married at Astoria on a Sunday in February, and the price per person was a steal, especially since the venue included everything we needed aside from a DJ and photographer. Overall, Astoria Banquets and Events Venue provided us with the most beautiful wedding, all while keeping us well under budget. We are so grateful for their outstanding service and beautiful venue!!”
