“Pinstripes Oak Brook was the perfect venue for our wedding! From the beginning, their communication was excellent and efficient, making the planning process a breeze. The venue itself has a truly unique, spacious vibe - we loved the indoor/outdoor feel and the cozy firepit. They were incredibly accommodating, allowing us to do our own sweets table and include our specific liquor requests. The quality of their work and overall value was exceptional.
