Awarded Best of Zola
Arrowhead has been fabulous start to finish. We were supposed to hold our original wedding on 7/4/20 on site with the reception to follow. When quarantine didn’t lift, Alexa did a great job with helping us come up with a “plan b” in advance so that we could let our vendors know. When we had to postpone our original plans, Alexa made it so stress free and was incredibly kind with picking it all up and moving to Summer 2021. We still wanted to legally marry and Alexa graciously helped us have a little micro ceremony with just immediate family. She was so thoughtful about helping us make it work and even came up with a backup plan in case the weather was bad. We could not be more appreciative of her work to make our marriage special this year and are looking forward to the best 1st anniversary party next year! Arrowhead’s staff pays such attention to detail and prides itself on customer service. You would not be disappointed in celebrating any occasion with them.

When my husband & I first walked into the Brix over two years, we were immediately taken aback by its beauty. We met with the owners, Rob & Tone and they were so kind and easy to talk to. We loved everything we heard from them about their venue and their approach (“your life, your style). We loved that this venue would allowed us to personalize everything from the food, drinks, music & decor. They gave amazing vendor recommendations (True Cusine, DJuJ, 11th hour bartending, prestige liquors and Mortar Designs). The whole staff was incredible (including Robbie, Erin & Ji Hee). If anything did go wrong that day, we didn’t know about it. We could not be more happy with our decision to get married at The Brix (Industria)! Thank you for your help in making our day so special!

They take great notes throughout the process and check in with you, their software platform makes it easy and I just can’t say enough good things about the day of.

Our wedding venue is a family business! We also have Kentucky bred thoroughbreds that have been on our farm for years! Our biggest goal, is making your wedding day as special as can be! We offer multiple ceremony sites on our farm and have a big tent for receptions!

The professionalism was like non other! They made sure my wedding was absolutely perfect! I got married on the hottest day of the year with a heat index of 119 F and the tent kept all of my guests cool! Emma did an outstanding job and her communication was stellar! Pete offered rides for guests on his golf cart throughout the wedding to make sure people did not have to walk far! I knew from the moment I took a tour here that I just had to have my wedding here! They offer many decorations that you can add to with your own hint of color to make your night beautiful! I needed to change my date unexpectedly and they were able to accommodate without any issues! I heard they were planning on making more improvements on years to come with an addition of a new barn and that is just so exciting for all the future brides! How can you make improvements on something that was already so perfect! All brides should save their time and visit this venue first because I know you will just fall in love with it! I think I am one of the very few brides that can say nothing went wrong on my special day and it was all due to the help of Emma, Pete, and the Northfork staff! P.s. I was looking over from previous reviews and brides have full capability of choosing their own DJ and food vendor, but Northfork offers a nice list of PREFERRED vendors that work well to help with the search! I chose all my vendors (Uncle Bubs and DJUj) from their list and my night could not have been more perfect!

The venue set everything up for us and took a huge chunk of our to do list off of our plate!

Awarded Best of Zola
I would like to highly recommend the Abbington Distinctive Banquets. We held both our ceremony and reception at this venue and was very pleased! We selected this venue based on its elegance (I absolutely loved the north ball room which features oversized windows allowing beautiful natural lighting, oversized chandeliers, and neutral color tones blending that blended well with our color palette. We also loved the fact that they have an option to host the ceremony in a separate room from the reception which was an absolute must for me, I am very particular and a little hard to deal with at times due to my over attention to detail and wanting every single detail preplanned and perfectly executed. Tara my venue coordinator was very accommodating to my "type A" personality :) She was very patient with me no matter how many times I contacted her, or regardless of how many times I stopped by the venue to run through things or do mock set ups, and was always just a email/ phone call away throughout the entire planning process. Leading up to the wedding one thing that I had not thought about prior to booking this venue is that we wanted a traditional soul food cuisine and the venue does not offer outside catering. Tara went above and beyond to meet my needs by helping us put together a custom menu using items from their various banquet menus. She also allowed us to request extra seasonings and provide details on how to turn their traditional menu Mac and cheese to "southern style baked Mac and cheese to give the food the southern flare we desired. The chef did an amazing job of executing it and the food was delicious and an absolute hit! My family (including the great aunties and grandparents) whom are tuff food critics were very pleased! We had absolutely NO complaints with anything related to the venue on our big day and would like to thank the staff at the Abbington Distinctive Banquets for being top tier! Everything was perfect!!!

We had our reception on the first floor and it was so perfect for us. It was so nice that there were multiple rooms to step away from the dance floor and have a private conversation or out on the balcony and view the river and cool off. The food is the best banquet hall food I’ve ever had. Everyone was so nice and friendly. Highly recommend.

At CityGate Grille, we focus on traditional elegance. This is the place to be for a unique and unforgettable wedding. Our team specializes in utilizing one-on-one consultations to personalize all the details of your dream wedding.

CityGate Grille is THE hidden gem in Naperville! I have DJ'd several times at CityGate Grille and this is one of the few venues in the Chicagoland area that I will refer to my clients. First of all, the staff that you work with is literally second-to-none. Barb is extremely nice, professional, always has a smile on her face and is willing to go above and beyond to make sure that your wedding is absolutely perfect! The staff on the day of your wedding are timely, professional, courteous, and will stop at nothing to give you one of the best experiences of your life! Even at a vendor table, they treat you with respect and ask if there is anything we need - and, again, that's just at a VENDOR TABLE! Secondly, the space is beautiful! CityGate's lawn and patio ceremony areas are perfect! Confined to just your family and friends, there will be no worries of having random people walking by during your ceremony - which I personally love as your ceremony needs to be intimate between you, your spouse, and your guests. The actual reception space is gorgeous! Floor-to-ceiling windows looking out to the patio coupled with aesthetically-pleasing ceiling lights and bar with all of the fixin's for that perfect cocktail will keep you and your guests more than satisfied throughout your reception. Finally, the service is FIVE STARS ACROSS THE BOARD! This should be the single most important aspect of selecting your wedding venue. As I stated above, from your first meeting down to the minuscule details, Barb and her team have it covered 100%. Everyone will treat you with kindness, respect, and will be genuinely excited about your celebration! Do yourself a favor and look no further than CityGate Grille for your wedding reception.

The restaurant at White Pines is a perfect setting for a business meeting or a relaxed dining occasion with friends or co-workers. Call for a tour!

Overall things were good. There were however a few disappointments that we encountered. First, there wasn't any power at the outdoor wedding venue; they had to run extension cords. Second was that people were allowed into the venue but the bar was not open and appetizers were not ready. Third, the room was very warm from the afternoon sun because the thermostat was in the hallway with a fireplace and the doors were closed. That was corrected by opening the doors but only after a long period of time. Fourth, there not enough appetizers. We as the wedding couple only got 1 of each selection (6 total) between the 2 of us and that was because they brought them to us in the bridal suite. We were told that people were taking them off the server's trays as the servers came out of the kitchen, but it seemed there wasn't enough food or staff because we were told by some guests that they didn't have any appetizers at all. Also, we were told that a guest asked a server for a glass of water, the server told the guest, "It's on the bar". Lastly, we ordered a Caesar Salad but we received an "Essence Salad". The menu's on the guests' plates stated "Essence Salad" but White Pines insisted it was a Caesar Salad...I've never had Caesar Salad with red onion. Aside from what I previously mentioned, the entrees were delicious and we did have a lot of fun. Bernadette was easy to work with and offered a lot of useful suggestions.

Please keep in mind, White Stone Events is Family Owned and Operated.

I literally could write for an hour or two and still not be able to tell you everything that was so wonderful about working with WSE. They were well organized, available, kind, and definitely make you feel like family. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and photographs very well. We took advantage of the recent upgrades to Alpha and it was a fantastic space; big enough to comfortably accommodate our 150-ish guests, décor, dance floor, buffets, memory table, etc, but still felt intimate. They coordinated well with our outside vendors and I appreciated that we weren’t limited in our vendor selection. They made a lot of things just work without stressing us out at all. The setup for my caterers/servers was excellent and accommodating. The Romeo suite was so much fun for the groomsfolk, but the Juliet suite was an AMAZING amenity. The salon chairs and backlit mirrors were so convenient for my HMUA. The suite was comfortable and roomy despite the zillion people I had coming in and out. The full kitchen (particularly the full size fridge/freezer) was super nice to have. We had our ceremony on the west lawn, which was absolutely beautiful. They also were very enthusiastic and accommodating about letting us get some photos with our dogs and incorporating them into the ceremony. One of the most notable things, though, was how well they handled adapting to my and my guests’ mobility needs. Several of my older family members use walkers and were worried about the walking or the grass and they all felt very accommodated and cared for and were able to enjoy the day. I myself have a disability that affects my ability to walk and stand for very long; this was no problem for them. They shortened the aisle for my ceremony, knew exactly how to create a beautiful ceremony where both we and our wedding party were seated, and they put a lot of mileage on those golf carts getting me and my family where we needed to be safely and comfortably. I cannot recommend White Stone strongly enough and I would have every event there if I could.

We got married a week ago at Walden and I cannot say enough about how positive an experience it was! Krystle and Alyssa (our dream team of planners) were our saviors throughout the entire planning process. I hadn't planned on using a full service planner until I found out Walden included them in the venue rental and now I can't imagine planning a wedding without them! They truly made the entire process fun, even during the more stressful parts. The rest of the Walden team is equally as amazing - the catering staff delivered some of "the best food we've ever had at a wedding," as many of our guests raved to us! The bar team also ran such an efficient operation that there was rarely ever a line for drinks, so rare at a wedding! Both teams worked with us to accommodate special requests and really felt like they prioritized making our day feel unique and special. The space itself is gorgeous and requires very little extra decoration, which is a great money saver! The separate spaces for ceremony, cocktail, and reception really made each part of the evening feel special. One of my favorite parts was the getting ready room - so rare to find in a Chicago city venue! My girls and I all had the best time getting ready in the space and it made for a very relaxing morning to already be on site. I could write 1,000 more words about how amazing this venue is but trust me when I say that if you want to alleviate as much stress from planning your big day as possible - Walden is the venue for you!!

The Woman’s Club of Evanston was the perfect venue for our June wedding! After an extensive venue search, we were so excited to find the Woman’s Club. The venue checked every box we had - close enough to the city for us and our friends and close enough to the suburbs for our family. The venue is also located right between a reasonably-priced parking garage and a lovely Hilton, which accommodated anyone flying or driving into our celebration. Our vendors also raved about the ease of working in that space, from the vendor parking lot to loading areas to elevators. The venue manager, Gretchen, was the best! She is an excellent communicator and answered all our questions promptly, and was on top of all the tasks that needed to be completed. The BYOB policy of the venue also helped us save some money on our beverages. The list of preferred caterers was great and we found someone that was the perfect fit for our fusion wedding. The venue itself is so beautiful. As soon as I walked in, I knew it was just right for us. The first floor is so warm and welcoming, and was perfect for our photos and for the cocktail hour. The second floor ballroom is grand and had such a wow factor. We were able to keep our decorations to a minimum because the venue itself is gorgeous. The space has so much natural light. We used the gardens outside for our first look, which made for some lovely photos. There’s nowhere else I would rather have gotten married!

When we realized there was no way we were going to be find a venue that checked most of the items on our wishlist, we got discouraged. Then we heard about this new venue that technically wasn't open yet but would be ready by the summer. As soon as we walking into Fairlie we knew this had to be our venue.

As a guest at the Millburn Stables Barn Venue for a recent wedding, I was captivated by the rustic charm and picturesque beauty that surrounded me. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality and immersed in an unforgettable celebration of love. The barn itself was a stunning backdrop for the festivities, with its exposed wooden beams, twinkling string lights, and cozy atmosphere. The rustic charm of the venue combined with elegant décor and thoughtful details created an atmosphere of warmth and sophistication. From the delicious, plated meal to the lively music and dancing(with dance floor), every aspect of the reception was impeccably planned and executed, ensuring that guests had a fantastic time from start to finish. Modern, clean bathrooms were a huge plus as well. The staff were attentive, professional, and went above and beyond to ensure that every guest felt welcomed and taken care of.

Awarded Best of Zola
We were picky and diligent while looking for a venue for our daughter’s wedding. We chose LM Studio over other places we looked at (Chicago has many wonderful venues to choose from!) for many reasons: -- excellent location downtown Chicago: on Michigan Avenue, yet off the busiest part of it with plenty of affordable parking nearby -- elegant décor with stunning views overlooking Lake Michigan and the parks -- full catering services with terrific selection of dishes for cocktail hour and Reception dinner Our expectations were high, yet LM Studio surpassed them! All the services they provided were impeccable. On top of this, we wanted to add a few cultural dishes to the wedding feast that meant a lot for our family. LM stuff was exceptionally accommodating and made it surprisingly easy - both, at the planning stage and during reception itself, even though that meant extra work for them. They really went above and beyond. Not only plenty of time was provided for setup and decoration on the day of the wedding, we also were allowed to drop off decorative cultural items and treats the night before and pick them up the day after (!) the wedding (and LM studio safely stored them for us). We are especially grateful to Paulette Eastman, the LM Studio Event coordinator for making all our communications so easy and efficient, and for being so responsive and supportive with all our requests and ideas. The Wedding turned out absolutely perfect according to our guests – THANK YOU, LM Studio!

At The Bridge Lemont, we are proud to offer the same level of attention to each of our couples as we would to our own wedding. Because we are family owned and operated, we are heavily invested in the success of your day. From our rustic industrial décor to our hand-selected list of curated vendors, every detail has been carefully chosen with you in mind. If you’re looking for a rustic industrial wedding venue, Chicago has no shortage of options. But only The Bridge offers minimalist décor, warm welcomes, and concierge-level service in a convenient downtown location.

As a DJ, I've had the opportunity to work with many venues in the Chicagoland area. The Bridge in Lemont is by far my favorite venue. The space is designed to give guests an outstanding experience in a beautiful building with several areas to keep the experience fresh, instead of being stuck in a stale hotel ballroom for six hours! The facility is purposely designed to make working in the space a breeze for vendors like myself. Finally, the staff—from the owners to the bartenders—are the best we work with. They care for both the clients (couples getting married) and the vendors, always keeping the best interests of the event's outcome in mind. I will always choose a Bridge Lemont wedding over another inquiry because it is guaranteed to be an amazing wedding.

My husband and I were looking for a wedding venue for our June wedding and stumbled on this location based off other Zola reviews and we are so grateful we did. The venue is absolutely beautiful. Its everything I wanted in terms of it being and open rustic vibe. We added very little decor to the space because the space is beautiful in its own right. We got so many compliments about how beautiful the venue was and the patio space. We had both our ceremony and reception here. Jen was a joy to work with.

Victoria in the Park was a dream venue for our wedding. Not only is the space gorgeous, but the food was delicious and the staff was hands down the best group to work with. First the food, just wow! All of our guests kept raving about how delicious everything was from hors d'oeuvres to main course. Kudos to the chefs for consistent cooking and high quality food given our guest count of 350. One guest said that the cream of mushroom soup was so good that “he could bathe in it.” For my husband and I, the filet was a perfect medium rare and the lobster tail was so tender, both melted in your mouth. Our guests also said their filet mignon was cooked perfectly and the salmon was delicious and not dry. Now to the amazing staff. Wanda was our main point of contact and from our very first meeting, which was just a walkthrough of the venue, she made us feel like family. She was very attentive to our needs and pretty responsive with our communications both via email or text during the planning. The day of our wedding, she managed our timeline with the band seamlessly. From cocktail hour, to leading guests downstairs to the main dining room, to cutting cake, dinner, speeches and dancing, nothing felt rushed and even our guests said our wedding had the best program of events they’ve experienced. In addition to Wanda, Rosie was such a gem. She provided top notch service, leading the entire serving staff and also coordinated set-up with all of our vendors. She even found personal items that we left behind in boxes that were almost sent to the trash. We can’t thank Wanda, Rosie and their entire team enough for making our wedding truly unforgettable.

Step into Belvedere Events & Banquets and be welcomed by the subtle elegance of what our facility has to offer you on your wedding day. Each room is turn-key, with elegant mosaic tiles displayed throughout, chandeliers and lighting that can be customized for your desired ambiance. The rooms stand alone, or can be configured for additional possibilities for seated, cocktail or lounge receptions. The Belvedere resides in a perfectly centralized location in the western suburbs of the Greater O´Hare Area of Chicago for your wedding ceremony and reception.Our experienced planners are ready to design your perfect day with personalized service.

I got married 1/25/20 (literally right before pandemic hit). Never did I image the process of planning would be so smooth and of course I prepared for at least 1 hiccup during the day. When I tell you EVERYTHING was perfect; it really was. Belvedere's team is the reason for this! From months leading up to my day, weeks, days, and hours; Jodi, Doro, and the rest of the team were great at getting back to all my questions and made me feel comfortable with all things wedding related. The tasting (3 months prior) was amazing and chef Alfredo made his presence, explained all choices, and this was the moment that getting married hit us! Let's not forget that doro was amazing at the tasting too! Although side note; I've worked with the belvedere team for 10+ years for corporate events so there were lots of jokes on why i even needed a tasting. :) fast forward to rehersal the day before, doro once again was a gem to have around. He calmed my nerves with a glass of chardonnay. :) day of the wedding jodi stuck around in my bridal suite and made sure my dress was perfect for my entrance, came down and watched a bit of the ceramony, hugged me afterwards, and made sure all was great before she made her exit. The bartenders were on point, food service was quick, hot and delicious, decorations were in ALL the right spots per my horrible instructions (they are great at figuring things out!) And I had nothing to worry about other than making sure I soaked up EVERY second with my new groom. Although I've known belvedere a long time and have had numerous events here (sometimes 6 or more a month) my wedding felt amazing and it was nothing like my corporate events. I also will let future brides know that you will be treated just as amazing! If you want a jaw dropping venue with bonus amazing staff that will treat you as if you're their most important customer (and even a friend) then you are in the right place. You will get all of these same treatments... it doesnt matter if you've known them for 10 years or it's your first meeting. They care about every person coming in their venue and want you to walk away knowing they have their $%*T together and you only have to focus on you!

The River Room was beyond a pleasure to work with! Adam is one of the kindest coordinators I’ve met and allowed us to take as many photos as we wanted around the venue and the brewery. Not only did the whole staff give the couple and their guests a wonderful experience, but you could tell they genuinely cared about the people there and wanted them to have fun. Lastly, the location of this venue is phenomenal. Having the sun set behind the couple as they exchange vows on the terrace along the river, being in walking distance of a stunning park, it was all just so perfect for pictures. Cant wait to work with them again in the future!

Lisa and her team are, hands down, the best group of people I have ever met and would hire them 100% again and again. Lisa ensured she understood what our vision was by asking thorough and detailed questions. She went above and beyond contacting our venue and all necessary vendors to make sure everything ran smoothly. If there was ever an issue, she solved it without worrying us. And the day of our wedding, several of our guests informed us how amazing her and her teams’ service, professionalism, and how invested she is… not to mention how delicious all the food was, requiring seconds and thirds!!! There aren’t enough words to explain how phenomenal Lisa and her team are and how if it weren’t for Lisa, we wouldn’t have had the wedding of our dreams come true.

My husband and I booked The Arbory as our wedding venue. After seeing it last year, when it wasn't completed yet, and meeting with Allison, we felt confident that the venue was exactly what we were looking for! We worked with Allison ahead of the big day and she was easy to communicate with and even invited us back, after the venue was completed, so we could see it in person again. We also worked with Shay closer to the date and she was our venue manager on the day-of the wedding. I am so thrilled and happy we decided to book The Arbory, it is a beautiful venue, full of character, special & unique touches, and yet can still be fully customized to reflect each couple's personality. You can truly tell the team behind the venue understand events because they have crafted the venue so well. We didn't even have to do much with decor because they have so many awesome murals and living walls! The venue also provided a professional and wonderful security guard for our wedding, and we had plenty of street parking available too. We cannot recommend Allison, Shay and The Arbory enough! We have received so many compliments on how beautiful and perfect our venue was, and honestly, it is!

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I were fortunate enough to have our wedding reception at The Carter in June. From the moment we first toured The Carter up until a few days after our wedding, Chris (owner/operator) and the rest of The Carter staff went above and beyond for us. Chris was super responsive, so easy to work with, and created such an amazing vision for our day. Chris knows what is important to wedding guests and makes sure to prioritize those things - short lines for the bar, guests having a drink in their hand, food served quickly, etc. Everything about the space is perfect, the bridal suite is huge and has so much natural light. I got ready in the morning in the bridal suite and had 10 bridesmaids, my mom, 2 hair stylists, and 2 makeup artists in the space and there was plenty of room for all of us. Our hair stylists, makeup artists, and my bridesmaids raved about the bridal suite - definitely a huge perk of The Carter! The patio space is perfect for cocktail hour, I loved having that outdoor feature and so did our guests. The entrance/welcome space is stunning and such a great way to welcome guests into the space. The main reception area is so beautiful and has so much character with the brick walls and chandeliers that you need minimal decorations/florals which was a huge draw for me. The dance floor is big and fit our band along with all our guests. We were very fortunate to have a perfect 70 degree day so the garage doors were open throughout the entire cocktail hour and reception which was amazing. Literally, every single guest of ours raved about the space. I could go on and on about how amazing it is!! There is also parking easily available which is very rare for wedding venues in the city. We were also surprised the day of our wedding when they let us up onto the roof to get some fun golden hour shots. We had no idea they had roof space that was accessible for that type of pictures! I can't say enough about the staff at The Carter. I already mentioned how great Chris is. Stefan was a newer addition to The Carter staff and we were fortunate to work with him in the last week leading up to our wedding. He was there to let us drop off stuff a few days prior to the wedding and he had everything organized for us. The day of the wedding, Stefan was making sure our drinks for the bridal suite were on ice, he made sure trash was cleaned up, and would continually check on us to see if we needed anything. He told me, "you're not lifting a finger today" and me and my bridesmaids were so appreciative of everything he did for us. At the cocktail hour and reception, the servers and bartenders were great. Food came out quickly and there were no issues. Stefan was even sweet enough to let us leave some stuff after the reception and my friend came by to get the rest of it on Monday. Moral of the story is The Carter is hands down the best and really wants to make your wedding day perfect for you. Our day was literally perfection and we have The Carter to thank for that!

Beatnik West Town is one of my favorite venues in Chicago -- and that says a lot as I am a Wedding Planner! The decor is jaw droppingly stunning, the food & drinks are of the best quality and taste unreal, and the Bonhomme Group team makes the planning/wedding day a breeze. It's the best spot to get married if you're looking to host a unique, beautifully designed wedding and/or if you're a foodie. I personally love the Bonhomme Group experience so much that I had my own micro wedding at Celeste, a sister venue to Beatnik West Town.
