The Off Map Glamping team from start to finish was IMPECCABLE. Ronny and Lisa’s attention to detail and really knowing what works best for their property, made our wedding perfect. We didn’t live near by so they let us pop by as much as we could, whenever we asked, they made it work. Everyone working on the property was knowledgeable, kind, and went above and beyond. You can tell they really love what they do and they will truly do anything to make sure your day is like none other. No words can describe how amazing and helpful the weekend event staff, D, Sara, Lisa’s father and another gentleman all equally helpful and SOOO kind. We never felt like a bother but more so family. We had so many guests and vendors say that this wedding at Off Map Glamping was the best they’ve ever attended thus far and that would not have been remotely possible without the people mentioned above. We wish we could relive it over and over, it was that incredible. Connor and I will forever rave about this place and we are SO thankful we can come back to camp and visit!! This property stole a piece of our hearts and we know it will do the same for every couple that comes after us! We cannot recommend them enough. Bravo!

My fiancé, Rica, and I didn’t originally plan on having our wedding and reception at Bay Pointe. We hadn’t looked at any place that far away, 1 hour from home. Two weeks before the wedding our original venue had a fire and we had to scramble to find a new location. Mariesa Colavincenzo, the Catering Sales Manager at Bay Pointe, came to our rescue. With her and her staffs’ help we were able to pull off a miracle and have a beautiful wedding using part of the restaurant and the deck, looking out on the lake… a perfect backdrop for our vows and the reception. Everyone remarked about how beautiful the setting was and also how wonderful the food was. We had 2 appetizers and a 3-entry buffet that was absolutely delicious! Rica and I thank Mariesa and everyone at Bay Pointe for making our wedding a wonderful reality when it seemed it might not happen at all. -Dr. Mark Crapo

Choosing the Design Barn as our venue was truly the best decision ever! When planning our wedding, we only visited two places and knew right away that this was the one for us. It’s such a unique and spunky place with the best vibes out there. They have so much to offer and we were able to customize our special day to work the best for us. We did our ceremony and reception on site, and there was so much space for everything. Huge thanks to Alex and the whole Design Barn team for helping our vision come to life. They did our table decor, photo booth background, and so much more! And they literally have the most amazing food options to choose from. We did appetizers, dinner, and a late night snack! Plus a bridal lunch while we were getting ready. They covered all the bases and are so flexible and easy to work with. They truly made sure that our special day was the best day ever!

Once we found The Lodge at Rush Lakes for our wedding venue, we knew it was the one! Logan and Dustin are the most down to earth and thoughtful guys who helped make our wedding day everything we dreamt of, plus more! We met with them multiple times on the property to go over everything wedding related. We live over 2 hours away and this place was worth the drive every single time! I could not recommend Rush Lakes enough to anyone looking for a wedding venue, special occasion, reunion, family gathering, bridal shower, baby shower, etc. We also worked with a handful of vendors recommended by Logan that have done events at Rush Lakes before, so the process was so incredibly easy! Being able to spend the weekend with our pups, friends, and family before and after our wedding day made it so much more special too. Being able to have our dogs be a part of our day meant everything to us and Rush Lakes made that possible. The whole property is stunning, there is not one bad spot for photos! Everything was perfect and I could talk highly about Rush Lakes for days on end. THE PERFECT VENUE!!! I miss it every single day. Thank you Logan and Dustin for making the wedding of my dreams possible!!!

With the original wood floors and over 800 tin ceiling tiles still intact and beautifully restored, this space embodies a rustic opulence that offers couples the feel of a big city event in a quaint village. At the top of the grand staircase in the all-glass foyer, guests will find a tall corridor, flanked by two sets of massive, 12 foot turn-of-the-century doors, leading to a grand ballroom, complete with a show-stopping chandelier.

My fiancé and I discovered the hidden gem of 19 North by Froehlich's while initially visiting for a delightful breakfast at Froehlich's restaurant. We were thrilled to learn it doubles as a stunning wedding venue! From the grandeur of the 8-foot chandelier and star-like pendant lights to the vintage charm of the ornate tin ceiling tiles, this venue marries historical preservation with modern elegance. The impressive wooden doors promise an unforgettable ceremony entrance, complemented by antique lounge sets and a private entrance through a picturesque glass atrium, perfect for a cocktail hour. The photos I'm including are frames from a video I took during the tour and they simply do not do this beautiful space justice! As a Chicago couple seeking a beautiful wedding without the metropolitan price tag, we were thrilled by 19 North's proximity to Chicago and charming towns like Three Oaks, New Buffalo, and Michigan City. The all-inclusive experience, from the beautiful furnishings to the option of building a custom menu, means fewer details to manage and more time to enjoy the journey to our special day. There are also tons of walkable Airbnbs which will be great for us and our out-of-town guests. The array of options and pricing transparency for catering and staffing have been impressive, reflecting the venue's commitment to ease and excellence. Drew, our point of contact, embodies professionalism and attentiveness, answering every query quickly with patience and insight. For those on the market for a wedding venue that promises a seamless blend of historical allure and contemporary services, look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend scheduling a visit to 19 North by Froehlich's - a true embodiment of vintage elegance and an all-encompassing wedding experience. We eagerly await our wedding day at this enchanting venue and are confident it will create memories that we and our guests will cherish forever!

Fair Oaks Farms was a nice venue for our wedding, though their communication style was a bit minimal on the actual wedding day. The quality of their work and value was very nice - the servers were attentive and helpful throughout the evening. However, when our official reception time was up at 11pm, the staff turned on all the lights and rushed us to gather our belongings and vacate the reception hall immediately. This made the end of our special night feel a bit abrupt and hurried. Overall, Fair Oaks Farms provided a pleasant setting for our wedding, but could improve the communication and transition at the end of the night.

The Olympia Fields Park District is possibly one of the best park districts in the south suburbs. Every location they offer to have an event at is top tier. The Olympia Fields Park District is a photographer's dream. Whether you are planning a wedding, bridal shower, party, celebration, corporate retreat, workshop, retirement dinner, or an association meeting, their facilities can provide the perfect setting for you. The Bradford barn takes the cake when it comes to ELEGANCE. I worked as a photographer at every location the Olympia Fields Park District has to offer and they all receive five stars from me. The thing that gives Olympia Fields Park District the Superior advantage over other locations and park districts is the option to have everything set up how you want it. From the catering to the layout to the design, they don't get in your way. Most banquet halls force your hand when it comes to catering or using their partners, but the Olympia Fields Park District let's you host your event how you would like to. Also their locations bring a different kind of highly upscale energy. When you host an event in the Olympia Fields Park District, there's a certain level of excellence and class that comes with it. If you plan on renting one of their facilities, I would strongly suggest calling to check if the date and time you are looking to get is available. They host lots of events and you don't want to find yourself thinking you will be able to rent a location and it is already booked up.

My husband and I got married at North Lake October 4th, 2025 and had the most beautiful backdrop to the day. North Lake was incredible to work with and were so accommodating. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how wonderful the venue was. Dan really has put so much thought behind every detail from not having any curbs or steps making it incredibly handicap accessible to constantly making upgrades that only add to the experience. My husband and I are both huge baseball fans and we got married on a Cubs Brewers postseason game that started at 2pm. The tv in the groom's room was not working and Dan brought a tv from his own home and had it set up in time for the game. Any questions I had were promptly responded to by Danelle and she was so sweet and personable. If you're looking for a venue where you have the control of which vendors to work with while not missing out on the location and luxuries of an inclusive venue I'd highly recommend North Lake.

The Wade Hotel was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. Their communication style was positive, professional, and enthusiastic, and they were incredibly supportive throughout the planning process. The entire staff, from the restaurant team to the concierge, security team and valet, were friendly and helpful, ensuring a seamless experience. We thoroughly enjoyed the tasting process, and all of our guests raved about the food and drinks. Although our onsite event manager has since left, she was wonderful to work with as well as our initial booking contact, Natalie. The Wade Hotel provided the best value for our chic city wedding, and we were able to accrue Marriott Bonvoy points, which was an added bonus. We definitely recommend the Wade Hotel. A couple of watchpoints to consider: - we loved the ability to have an outdoor wedding facing the lake however the end of May in Chicago was unpredictable so it was cooler than we hoped. The sun is covered by the building so if your event is in the afternoon/evening that wont help - Our wedding was 150 guests and it was "tight" in the Altitude reception space. I think 125 would have been far more comfortable. - Our wedding was on a holiday weekend so unfortunately many of our guests did not receive lake view rooms for the room block. Some guests also were able to find prices cheaper elsewhere online.

I had an EXCELLENT experience with City Cruises for my August wedding reception / brunch cruise. The sales manager, Serena, event coordinator, Andria, and all the service staff were wonderful. I had dozens of questions running up to the wedding about optimizing my budget and incorporating all kinds of guest preferences—Andria and Serena were so patient. In the actual day of, food was good, drinks were good, DJ was fabulous and incorporated French, English, and Spanish songs requests for my guests. I loved this choice for reception venue and would do it again in a heartbeat.

We had a small rehearsal dinner, followed by a big welcome party on the river for over 200 guests from 20 different states. This is a perfect location for people that have never been to Chicago and those that are locals, because the view of the river and the buildings is absolutely stunning. They have the biggest covered outdoor patio in the city, and it was a perfect setting for our guests. From the dinner food to the appetizers and cocktails, every single detail was excellent. We couldn't believe how kind the staff was, from the person that we first interacted with to every bartender. They were flexible and really cared about making this experience enjoyable and unique for our guests, and wow, they delivered! We are so thankful for what your team put together for us. Thank you, Rivers!

Offshore Rooftop was the perfect venue for our wedding day. Their communication throughout the entire process was excellent - they were always responsive to our questions and provided clear information. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous, with stunning city and Lake Michigan views, and the value was great, with no hidden fees or surprises with the final cost. We barely needed decor because the place is so beautiful, the pictures turned out incredible. Everything on the day of the wedding ran so smoothly, and they were incredibly flexible with any last minute changes or requests we had. We were fortunately able to have our ceremony outside but they already created a backup plan in case of inclement weather. We also loved that they allowed us to bring our dog to be part of the celebration. Offshore Rooftop truly contributed to making our special day perfect.

From the moment we walked into River Roast, we knew it was the perfect place to celebrate our wedding. The reception space is absolutely gorgeous, and the location right along the Riverwalk made it even more special. Our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful the venue was and how incredible it was to have our reception overlooking the river on their veranda. And the food was IMPECCABLE! We received so many compliments from our guests about the food and drinks. Everything was absolutely delicious and exceeded our expectations. We also have to give a huge thank you to Jess and Natalie, who were an absolute joy to work with throughout the entire process. From the initial tour, tasting, and everything in between, they were both incredibly helpful, responsive, and organized. They made planning our reception feel so easy!! They were always willing to answer our questions, help us work through the small details, and make sure everything came together exactly how we envisioned it. Our wedding at River Roast was everything we could have hoped for and more. We would wholeheartedly recommend River Roast to any couple looking for a beautiful and unique Chicago wedding venue!
