“We were honored to host our wedding at Meyers Castle in August 2024 and can’t imagine having our dream day anywhere else. My husband’s been familiar with the venue for years way back when they hosted events at the speakeasy. When he described it to me it sounded too good to be true but after touring the first time words can’t describe how beautiful it is. It’s an absolute dream venue with so many beautiful backdrops and details you don’t need much decor! The garden and statues are stunning! We honeymooned in Italy and have to say this venue rivals any Italian Villa. The staff were so accommodating and helpful. The food is amazing and for smaller weddings the Oakroom is so intimate and beautiful. I wish we could relive the day over and over again. It’s so romantic and can fit any size wedding. We didn’t use the bridal suite because it’s a separate fee but found the venues all inclusive rates to be extremely affordable. Our ceremony was in front of the gazebo with the castle in the background but any location would be equally beautiful. If you’re thinking about it let this be your sign it’s just as beautiful in person as in pictures. Our wedding was even featured on Brides as a hidden NWI gem. It’s only 30 min-1 hour outside of Chicago so it wasn’t an issue for guests to get to. Thank you Meyers Castle for hosting our dream day!”

“From our first conversation with Silver Lake Country Club, we knew we had found our venue. The team was responsive and genuine throughout the entire planning process, always keeping us informed and even helping us find ways to save money rather than pushing unnecessary add-ons. The property itself is stunning—the outdoor ceremony space and private garden with gazebo gave us the perfect backdrop for our celebration, and the spacious reception room needed nothing extra beyond what they already provide. What impressed us most was how the staff handled all the setup and breakdown, so we and our guests could focus on celebrating instead of worrying about logistics. The food and service were exceptional, and the venue's beauty truly cannot be overstated. Silver Lake Country Club delivered an all-inclusive experience that felt both elegant and affordable, and we couldn't have asked for a better choice.”

“One of my favorite wedding venues in the area!!!!!!! As a wedding photographer who's photographed at a fair share of venues, Northfork Farm takes the cake and is certainly in my top faves!!!!! It is so serene, peaceful, and beautiful. It also has a very intimate, homey-feel to it. I love the horses galloping around the farm the warm twinkle lights sprinkled around the barn. Plus, the staff is WONDERFUL and does a great job at handling all the ins and outs of running a venue and making sure their couples are taken care of. For anyone who's always dreamed of a barn wedding - Northfork Farm is THE ONE!!!”

“Started off our experience with the amazing Jill. She did everything just right and went beyond our expectations. When looking for a venue it can be very over whelming. Jill took that away from us right away. She explained everything to us in detail and broke it down. We then had the pleasure of working with the amazing Javi. He makes an excellent addition to Jills team. When I say this man was on top of everything I am not over exaggerating. He texted and called, and kept us on to date on everything. The day of the wedding and rehearsal Javi took top tier care of us and we will forever be grateful for the Bolingbrook Golf Club team for making our day extra special.”

The communication with staff, specifically Rachel, once we booked was fantastic! Every little question was answered and there was constant communication from day one. Food was delicious, catering staff was fantastic, bartenders were friendly. We received so many compliments from our guests about the venue, the food, the desserts, the decor. We were also very impressed with how flawlessly the day went, transitioning from ceremony, cocktail hour, to reception, everything went off without a single stressor.
