From the very beginning of our wedding planning journey, working with Eileen Miller was an absolute pleasure. She was amazing throughout the entire process and made everything feel so organized and stress-free. No matter how big or small our questions were (and there were a lot of them), Eileen was always incredibly quick to respond and took the time to make sure we felt confident and informed every step of the way. Her professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail truly stood out and made such a difference for us. When our wedding day finally arrived, everything ran so smoothly, and we were able to fully enjoy every moment without worry. That seamless experience was entirely because of the amazing staff at Eaglewood Resort & Spa. From start to finish, the team was attentive, professional, and genuinely cared about making our day perfect. They handled every detail behind the scenes so effortlessly that we never once felt stressed or rushed. Eaglewood exceeded our expectations in every way, and we are so grateful to Eileen and the entire staff for helping create such a beautiful, unforgettable day. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or a better team to trust with one of the most important days of our lives. We would highly recommend Eaglewood Resort & Spa to any couple looking for an exceptional wedding venue and an incredible experience.

We wanted a more casual wedding and pinstripes was perfect for that. The weather was perfect so we were able to have our ceremony outside on the patio and that area was perfect for the pictures! We had bowling during cocktail hour which our guests loved. The food was incredible and they did a great job managing our cake, decor, and everything we dropped off. The whole staff was so easy to work with and all of the meetings went so smooth.

We LOVED our wedding reception at Le Meridien! The reception space was at the top of the hotel and had great views and even a peak of the Chicago skyline in the distance. More elevated and chic space than a typical stuffy ballroom. Charmagne was amazing to work with, answered all of our questions, and was helpful day of the wedding too. The food selection was EXCELLENT- way better than stereotypical wedding food. Highly recommend the late night snack option and signature drink. And at the end of the night it’s so convenient to just hop on the elevator back to your room. We’ve already been back to celebrate our one year anniversary at the restaurant on the same floor as the reception space. Highly recommend this fantastic venue for your wedding!!!

The Grand Oaks Pavillion was one of the most beautiful reception spaces I have seen. The staff’s attention and care from the first consult to the final day was exceptional. Jason made sure everything was on time and perfect. The food was fantastic. Everyone had a great time. I am incredibly grateful to Jason, Tiana, Herminio, and the rest of the staff (front desk, servers, valet) for making my daughter’s special day so memorable.

It was a pleasure to work with Jodi at the Belvedere Banquet. She was amazing and made it very simple and easy at every step. I saw the prices and we talked about any changes along with the price for any changes. I got a packet that clearly stated what was included so I did not have to guess or question anything. We agreed on everything and I put down a small payment. Next payment could be spread out or in my case since the wedding was so close, I just paid in full. No extra fees were added on. Over the next few weeks, I had a few questions arise and she answered everything within the same day or next business day. My vendors were able to set up earlier than expected which was nice for them. I stayed next door at the hotel which was very convenient. They have doors that open between the hotel lobby and the banquet lobby. Plus a beautiful indoor lobby and outdoor courtyard for pictures. I loved the tall ceiling and the windows at my wedding. The food was amazing as well. I got many complements from my guests about the quality of the food. Many guests also enjoyed taking pictures in the lobby. Food was served at a timely manner. Overall, a very pleasant experience.
