“Cantigny Park was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, their communication was excellent - they responded to all of our questions quickly and were incredibly helpful throughout the planning process. On the day of the wedding, the onsite ceremony coordinator ensured the ceremony ran smoothly, and the reception team worked seamlessly with the ceremony team to make the entire day flow effortlessly. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, and the staff provided top-notch service to us and all of our guests.

Awarded Best of Zola
“Jerry and his crew made out wedding day incredible! They helped run the whole day, they got the guests seated, kept everything on schedule, and ensured that Ben and I didn't have to worry about anything. When our flowergirl got stage-fright right before walking down the aisle, Jerry swooped in to save the day and helped her find her mom. We initially didn't plan to do a grand entrance into the reception, but Jerry and the DJ (Megan from Music that Moves) made one happen last-minute so our flower girl could have a second shot ar throwing her petals. You're not just getting a venue at Parkway, you're getting a whole team who will make your event run smoothly. If we ever do a vow renewal or anniversary party, we will be back!”

“We had our wedding at Rosewood farm in August 2025 and it was the most perfect day we could imagine, and lots of that can be credited to the venue and the staff there. Harmony was a huge help during the planning process and made sure we had every detail in line. The new event space is so gorgeous and we had so many compliments from our guests about how amazing the venue was. It was so much fun to have our guests walk around the farm and see the animals as well. We also purchased our flowers from Rosewood, they not only fit our budget but they turned out stunning. We were over the moon and we can’t recommend this place enough!!”

“The Barn at Blackberry Farm was the perfect venue for our September 2025 wedding! We stumbled across it when our original venue closed and had to rearrange our plans, and Tara and her team were a godsend. Tara was prompt in communication to us (even when we weren't), and had a great relationship with our vendor team as well, so there was a lot handled behind the scenes that we didn't need to worry about- which was so appreciative! Our guests really loved the indoor/outdoor setting and multitude of activities (the train during cocktail hour, walking around the grounds, the s'more's during the reception), and we had some guests who had some accessibility concerns which were all able to be addressed by Tara and her team. It was a warm on the day of our wedding, so we were worried about how cool the barn was going to be, but it ended up cooling down at night so it was perfect with the large barn doors being open throughout. Would highly recommend!!”
