“The Illges House was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From the very first interaction, Kim was so kind, and incredibly helpful in guiding us through the entire process. The venue itself is simply stunning - classy, historic, clean, and high-end in every way. They worked incredibly well with all of our other vendors to ensure everything looked and felt beautiful.
