The Haight is a wedding and event venue located in Elgin, IL and is enveloped by a historic neighborhood, for a romantic and storied setting for your wedding. This converted warehouse was originally constructed in the 1890s. It began as the Elgin Storage & Transfer Company. Over the years numerous companies used the building until 1985 when it was bought by John Haight, who refurbished the building. The Haight features two floors and a rooftop area. Brick walls and hardwood flooring accent exposed ductwork. There are multiple spaces for hosting your ceremony, reception, and many other wedding-related gatherings. On the first floor, there is room for up to 175 guests standing. This makes the 2,000-square-foot space ideal for the cocktail reception. The second floor features 7,000 square feet of space. 250 people seated or 200 people seated with a dance floor can fit in this event area. You can also take your celebrations outside on the spacious rooftop deck.

The Haight was the perfect venue for our wedding day. Lauren, our coordinator, was incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and detail-oriented throughout the planning process, making it stress-free for us. On the big day itself, Lauren handled everything seamlessly behind the scenes - if any issues came up, we were blissfully unaware thanks to her proactive approach. The venue itself is unique, clean, and simply beautiful. From the charming exposed brick to the giant windows flooding the space with natural light, The Haight provided a warm, romantic backdrop for our nuptials. Combined with Lauren's coordination, their team delivered a flawless event beyond our wildest dreams. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind venue with wonderful personal service, The Haight exceeds expectations. We wholeheartedly recommend them for your special day!

White Stone Events is a 20-acre estate and Wedding Venue located in Sugar Grove, IL just 40 minutes west of Chicago, with interstate access close by. White Stone Events boasts 3 separate venue spaces! Many couples choose to utilize two buildings; one for Cocktail Hour and one for Dinner and Dancing! Alpha | Seats 250. This is the Modern Farmstead. Bravo | Seats 120. This is the Traditional Barn. Charlie | Seats 150. This is nicknamed "The Party Barn". White Stone Events offers both indoor and outdoor space.

Please keep in mind, White Stone Events is Family Owned and Operated.

I literally could write for an hour or two and still not be able to tell you everything that was so wonderful about working with WSE. They were well organized, available, kind, and definitely make you feel like family. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, and photographs very well. We took advantage of the recent upgrades to Alpha and it was a fantastic space; big enough to comfortably accommodate our 150-ish guests, décor, dance floor, buffets, memory table, etc, but still felt intimate. They coordinated well with our outside vendors and I appreciated that we weren’t limited in our vendor selection. They made a lot of things just work without stressing us out at all. The setup for my caterers/servers was excellent and accommodating. The Romeo suite was so much fun for the groomsfolk, but the Juliet suite was an AMAZING amenity. The salon chairs and backlit mirrors were so convenient for my HMUA. The suite was comfortable and roomy despite the zillion people I had coming in and out. The full kitchen (particularly the full size fridge/freezer) was super nice to have. We had our ceremony on the west lawn, which was absolutely beautiful. They also were very enthusiastic and accommodating about letting us get some photos with our dogs and incorporating them into the ceremony. One of the most notable things, though, was how well they handled adapting to my and my guests’ mobility needs. Several of my older family members use walkers and were worried about the walking or the grass and they all felt very accommodated and cared for and were able to enjoy the day. I myself have a disability that affects my ability to walk and stand for very long; this was no problem for them. They shortened the aisle for my ceremony, knew exactly how to create a beautiful ceremony where both we and our wedding party were seated, and they put a lot of mileage on those golf carts getting me and my family where we needed to be safely and comfortably. I cannot recommend White Stone strongly enough and I would have every event there if I could.

The space itself is gorgeous with exposed brick and wooden floors. The second floor patio is a lifesaver for the dance floor lovers needing to cool down. Even though my cocktail reception was just downstairs, the entire feel is completely different, promoting and Irish pub setting with elegant lighting. Staff was extremely efficient, and the bartenders were so personal! Gabrielle was my coordinator, and she went above and beyond during the entire planning process. She even added the personalized touch of having our signature drinks served in pineapples (as this this was how he proposed). Minor hiccups with pricing/guarantees due to the switching of hands, but fair compromises were put in place to offset this. Due to the flawless execution day of, and the hard work Gabrielle put in to make sure my day went off perfectly, I would absolutely recommend Loft 28 West!

We got married at Mercantile Hall on 11/2/2024, and it was an absolute dream! The coordinator packages are worth every penny—Stephanie stepped in during the final weeks and went above and beyond, she and the staff even brought drinks to the head table and our parents during dinner. The in-house services are so convenient, and the new getting-ready suite is gorgeous and perfect for a relaxing morning. The entire team was incredible throughout our two-year planning process—fun, professional, and detail-oriented. Every vendor had told us how amazing they are to work with, and they see why as they executed our day flawlessly. The venue is stunning, spacious yet intimate, and our guests haven’t stopped complimenting it. Merc.

With our personal, hands-on approach, including pre-planning and day-of coordination, Firehouse Chicago is the ideal, charming space for your guests to celebrate any occasion!

We are SO glad we chose Firehouse Chicago for our wedding in Sept 2024. It was truly the most beautiful, special day, and so much more than we ever imagined. The Firehouse was the perfect backdrop for our day. We chose to rent the upstairs room to get ready morning of, took all of our pictures onsite, had our ceremony in the garden, and dinner/reception in the engine room. The gorgeous greenery, subway tiles, natural light, and overall gorgeous aesthetic was perfect for us to relax and enjoy our day, and was truly picturesque from every angle for photos. Their attention to detail in curating this beautiful space is truly remarkable. Beyond its idyllic setting, one of the biggest perks of Firehouse Chicago, is the staff, and the wedding coordination that is included (you don't need to hire a separate day-of or month-of coordinator for this venue!). We got the pleasure of working closely with Teddy and Sarah and we really appreciated their calm reassuring demeanor throughout the wedding planning process, and their delicate touch knowing how important this day was for us and know overwhelming wedding planning can be. They truly helped take some of the stress and worry out of the planning process from start to finish. They ensured every little detail went off without a hitch from start to finish. They were so helpful in initial planning, month-of coordinating, day-of execution, and responding to all of my questions along the way. The rest of the Firehouse Staff was incredible day-of, and made sure everything ran smoothly. They kept us to our timeline, checked in with us frequently throughout the day, calmed my nerves as I waited to walk down the aisle, helped hype us up and build our confidence for our fire pole entrance, and even ensured we had some quiet time to ourselves after the ceremony to let things sink in and enjoy our moment. Their staff is truly the best- we were so fortunate we chose them for our big day.

The Lytle House is the perfect space to gather and celebrate with up to ​80 of your closest family + friends. Chairs, tables, good lighting, multiple backdrops within the space for ceremony or photos....we specifically designed the space in a way that makes it easy to plan a beautiful event with minimal effort. Focus on good food, good booze, and invite your favorite people to surround you as you celebrate your union.

The Lytle House was hands down the highlight of our wedding day. Robyn is hands on, always available whenever we had questions, beyond sweet, accommodating to all of our vendors and was there throughout the whole night if we needed her. Their space is truly unique and special and you really get the sense of community and the pride they take in their space. We were lucky enough to have the most perfect weather the day of our wedding and the courtyard was the most amazing place for our ceremony and outdoor hangout space for our guests throughout the night. The pictures do not do this place justice so be sure to go check it out! It is very spacious and the opposing indoor/outdoor spaces gave our guests plenty of options to hang out throughout the night. We had issues with our food truck vendor where they were not able to pull into the courtyard of the Lytle House but there was plenty of space right outside the venue near the driveway where they would have been able to pull in so it still worked out perfectly. We were able to open the courtyard doors for the guests that gave everyone full access to the ice cream truck which was amazing. From the ivy wall to the mural to the lights outside over the courtyard, each small detail did not go unnoticed and made for an unforgettable night and plenty of photo opps!

As a DJ, I've had the opportunity to work with many venues in the Chicagoland area. The Bridge in Lemont is by far my favorite venue. The space is designed to give guests an outstanding experience in a beautiful building with several areas to keep the experience fresh, instead of being stuck in a stale hotel ballroom for six hours! The facility is purposely designed to make working in the space a breeze for vendors like myself. Finally, the staff—from the owners to the bartenders—are the best we work with. They care for both the clients (couples getting married) and the vendors, always keeping the best interests of the event's outcome in mind. I will always choose a Bridge Lemont wedding over another inquiry because it is guaranteed to be an amazing wedding.

You’re searching for your ideal venue… where you find a grand indoor ceremony, elegant dining, a brag worthy bar and an enticing dance room. A venue where historic charm and ambiance is the backdrop to your wedding day! And here is the best part, all of this and you don’t have to do the work to have that AH-HA moment!

From the moment we stepped into the Sanctuary, we immediately fell in love with how stunning the place was and knew that this is where we wanted to host our wedding. Nancy & Shelly really took the time and cared about every little detail that we wanted and helped bring our vision to life. The day of, Shelly and her team were OUTSTANDING, making sure that we were taken care of, on schedule, helped make the room look beautiful and that no detail went astray. Throughout the entirety of the night, we had guests coming up and complimenting how beautiful the space itself was. The transition from the ceremony to the reception, with the subtle "room flip" was so seamless and quick that we didn't even realize that it happened - which was one of the small concerns we had. This is such an amazing backdrop for a wedding or any event with such a qualified and amazing team of dedicated professionals who provide exceptional service. We are so grateful for them all & highly recommend Sanctuary Events for your special day. Thanks team! Love, Craig & Bre

Wildman BT

  • Starts at $9,500

Lofty. Posh. Perfect. Wildman BT is a special place for weddings. Unassuming on the outside, magnificent on the inside, your guests will be transfixed in the moments of your big day. The natural light streaming from double clerestory windows, the warmth of the century-old exposed brick, and the luxury in the details designed in the space provide an incredible surrounding for the day you both say, I do.

Wildman BT is a great, unique space in Chicago for a wedding! Michelle, Valentina, and the Wildman BT team were great at bringing our vision to life. My husband and I wanted to host a cocktail style reception. Neither of us had been to a wedding like this before but Wildman BT helped us decide on chair counts, station placement, and floor plan layout to encourage the vibe we were going for. We love the openness of the space, media wall, and beautiful bathrooms!

Villanelle

Chicago, IL
  • Up to 100 guests
  • Select services

  • Starts at $5,000

Villanelle is dedicated to creating an inclusive atmosphere. We are queer-owned and -operated, and are especially dedicated to providing spaces for our queer community. While we allow alternative vendors, we are a full-service face with a wonderful variety or beverage and food menus. Our space is flexible and beautiful, and we're able to accommodate many different styles of event. We also offer flexible, interest-free payment plans for those who need them!

We were lucky to partner with Villanelle for their first official onsite event! CommunityHealth, a volunteer-based free health center just down the street, hosted our first in-person volunteer appreciation event since COVID(!) with Villanelle and couldn't have been happier with the experience - from initial planning to day-of to swift wrap-up. Though not a wedding, we benefited from all of the things Villanelle does wonderfully - prompt and warm communication, flexible pricing options to meet our budget, flexibility with the space, setup, music, timing of catering to make sure all fit with our plans, super tasty food and beverage options, etc etc etc. The space is beautiful and has enough personality to stand on its own and also allow for customization as desired, the photo booth (RIP Berlin) was a great add-on, and the whole team was lovely to work with. We're so glad to have Villanelle in the neighborhood creating inviting queer spaces for celebration. 3

The Arbory offers a chic and contemporary venue in Chicago’s Logan Square. The modern design and lush outdoor space create a versatile and inviting setting for weddings. Guests enjoy the intimate atmosphere and customizable options that allow couples to personalize their celebration. The attentive staff and comprehensive planning services ensure a seamless and memorable event. The Arbory provides a stylish and flexible venue focused on personalized service.

We had the best experience at the Arbory for our January wedding. It was the 3rd space we looked at while planning, and it was clear immediately that it was perfect for us. Our venue rep, Shay, was wonderful and so easy to work with. The venue has relationships with so many other local wedding vendors, and they made it very easy to coordinate all the moving parts. The space was perfect for our 100 guests to move about with plenty of space. The 2 separate rooms make it so easy logistically to do a ceremony into cocktail hour with a room flip, and moving people from one room to the next was no issue at all. So many of our guests loved the space, and said it was so "us". We had the best day ever.

Awarded Best of Zola
Hangout Lighting was a fantastic choice for our wedding reception venue. Jen's communication throughout the planning process was extremely prompt and helpful. I was looking for a space that was already partially decorated and set up, one that had some indoor and outdoor space, as well as one that allowed us to bring in any vendors of our choosing. Hangout Lighting delivered on all these points. We loved the lighting (of course!) and that the beautiful farmhouse tables and chairs were already perfectly in place. Jen offered a lot of flexibility in the timing of the day as well, so we could choose the number of hours that fit our event. I wish we could have celebrated past the 10pm last call and, looking back, might have started our event earlier in the evening to have more time. But all of the rules and guidance were extremely well communicated ahead of time, so we knew what we were getting into. The free street parking was plentiful, and the location worked great for us. Very glad we were able to celebrate our wedding at Hangout Lighting during the first year that they were hosting events in the space, as I think we got a great deal as well, having compared prices with some similar places in the area. Thanks Jen and staff!
