“We had our wedding at Moonflower, and it was amazing! We originally found Moonflower on Zola. Although we are from the area, we had never visited before, and the photos immediately caught our attention. The bar fit our vibe perfectly, and after visiting a few times, we knew it was the right place for us. We rented both spaces: the main bar upstairs and Nightshade, the speakeasy downstairs. Moonflower has a small stage in the main bar, which we used for our ceremony. The space already has so much character that it needed very little decorating. We brought small flower vases and an altar piece that the bride and her now mother in law made together. After the ceremony, we held cocktail hour and served food buffet style in the main bar. Later, everyone moved downstairs to Nightshade. Its lounge atmosphere and dance floor were perfect for our 50 to 60 guests. Some people relaxed around the cocktail tables while others danced, so everyone could enjoy the night in their own way. Moonflower’s event organizer, Morgan, was wonderful. She made the entire planning process feel easy and was a joy to work with. She helped turn our ideas into reality, assisting with day of logistics, décor, beverage packages, and every question that came up. She was always responsive and available. Morgan also helped us think through details that had not occurred to us, including coffee for our guests, explaining the parking situation, contacting nearby businesses about using their lots, and recommending DJs. We ultimately hired one of the DJs she suggested. Her extra support was incredibly helpful and took a great deal of stress out of planning. If you have not tried Moonflower’s drinks, you are missing out. Their regular cocktail menu is fantastic, and our experience was even more special because of a custom cocktail session with Zach. He created signature drink options for each of us based on our tastes and favorite cocktails. Every option was spectacular, and the final drinks felt personal and special. We chose Funeral Potatoes for the food. Since they already handle the food at Moonflower, we were able to try many dishes beforehand. Our guests raved about everything. We especially recommend the brussels sprouts, deviled eggs, and caprese sandwiches. Alexis, who heads up Funeral Potatoes, was also extremely helpful with selecting the menu. The only outside food we brought in was our wedding cake. The entire staff was phenomenal. Everyone treated the occasion with the perfect balance of care, professionalism, and fun. The night went off without a hitch and was truly one of the best nights of our lives. Moonflower was also extremely reasonable compared with other venues we considered in the city, especially with an open bar and food available on site. Street parking was plentiful, and none of our guests had trouble finding a spot. For anyone looking for a relaxed wedding for 50 to 60 people with a memorable lounge atmosphere, fantastic staff, buffet style food, and exceptional cocktails, Moonflower should be at the top of your list.”

“Crystal, the event director at Parson’s, was nothing short of amazing. From the moment we started planning, she felt like so much more than an event coordinator—she was, for all intents and purposes, like having an incredibly skilled wedding planner by our side. She was thoughtful, intuitive, and completely in tune with the vibe we were going for—even when we couldn’t quite put it into words ourselves. On the big day, when we arrived for our surprise wedding, Crystal immediately picked up on our nerves and somehow knew exactly what we needed to feel calm and grounded. That kind of attentiveness is rare, and it meant everything to us. Her coordination was seamless, and her staff were equally incredible—warm, professional, and so clearly invested in making the day special. It’s honestly hard to put into words just how wonderful our wedding was at Parson’s. Thanks to Crystal, it felt effortless, joyful, and completely us. We will be forever grateful.”

“Rockwell On The River had pretty much everything we were looking for in a venue. It had a beautiful outdoor area where we did the ceremony and cocktail hour on the river. We got so many compliments about the outdoor area. The inside is quite large, but sections can be draped off to make it seem more intimate. There is a wonderful bridal suite upstairs at the venue that is away from the craziness where we relaxed before the ceremony and had a moment to eat some apps after it. The space really lights up with your florals, greenery and lights, so it is beautiful canvas for which you can work with your vendors to create. They were easy to work with and the venue comes with the bar (Venuelogic), who were also very flexible and easy to work with.”

“We wanted our wedding to feel fun, relaxed, and centered around amazing food—and BiXi Beer was the perfect fit. The upstairs atrium gave us a beautiful indoor/outdoor space for our ceremony and the cocktail-style dinner we had for our 98 guests made it feel like a laid-back party with delicious food and amazing drinks at every turn. Our guests loved the food—many went back for seconds, thirds, even fourths—and we’ve heard nothing but rave reviews since. The cocktails were fantastic (special shoutout to the last-minute espresso martinis!) and the house beer, of course, was a hit. We also loved that they offered late-night bite options. We also love that BiXi is a real restaurant—so that we and our guests can go back and relive the flavors anytime. And the location in Logan Square made it easy to keep the celebration going afterward at nearby spots like The Owl and Federales. Big thanks to Jordan, the event coordinator, who made the whole planning process so easy and enjoyable. BiXi truly helped us create a night we’ll never forget and we would recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding venue!”

“We had our wedding in the Cellar room at Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant in Arlington Heights, and it was everything we dreamed. The room is truly fantastic because it sits downstairs away from the rest of the restaurant for a truly private event. Additionally, the room includes a large bar and even a small dance floor. We worked well with the event planning team who made us feel supported, valued, and at ease during what can be an overwhelming planning process. The food was absolutely phenomenal. It was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and served with perfect timing. The delivery of restaurant-quality dining for a wedding is truly impressive. Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was from start to finish. The service was outstanding as well. The staff was attentive without ever feeling intrusive, extremely professional, and incredibly organized. Everything flowed seamlessly, allowing us to enjoy every moment without a single worry. One of the things that meant the most to us was how flexible and accommodating they were with the décor. They allowed us to transform the space into a very elegant setting that perfectly matched our vision. Every detail, from the color palette to the floral and candle arrangements, was able to shine because they gave us the space and freedom to design the atmosphere we wanted. They also worked beautifully with all of our vendors, making coordination easy and stress-free. A very special thank-you goes to our event manager, who was truly exceptional. She was responsive, patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Her calm leadership and clear communication ensured that everything came together effortlessly. Our wedding day felt elegant, seamless, and unforgettable—and so much of that is because of the incredible team at Cooper’s Hawk - Arlington Heights.

“The staff was amazing and the food was so good. The manager and service staff made sure we always had a drink in our hand, gave us space to chat and connect with our families and made us feel right at home. My mom has a food allergy, but they made a single dish for every course that she could eat and warned her when there was a dish that might cause issues. They made sure all of our family felt taken care of, which was so special to me. The food is top notch. Lasagna and risotto are definite highlights, so don't miss those!”
