Ellen Woods knocked it out of the park! We absolutely made the right decision in selecting Tigerlily as our wedding caterer and Cafe Brauer as our venue. From start to finish (even after our wedding day!), Ellen answered all of our questions thoroughly and in a timely manner, remaining flexible and patient, working closely with her beverage director and catering to ensure our St Patrick's Day wedding was stellar. The tastings & meetings were personal with extreme attention to detail all the way through. The speed of flipping the Great Hall from ceremony to reception was superb, even our guests commented on it! To top it off, Ellen made sure that the exterior of the building looked 110% prior to our big day; she truly did everything in her power to make things happen for us and saw it through. Thank you Ellen and the entire team of Tigerlily Events!

I would like to highly recommend the Abbington Distinctive Banquets. We held both our ceremony and reception at this venue and was very pleased! We selected this venue based on its elegance (I absolutely loved the north ball room which features oversized windows allowing beautiful natural lighting, oversized chandeliers, and neutral color tones blending that blended well with our color palette. We also loved the fact that they have an option to host the ceremony in a separate room from the reception which was an absolute must for me, I am very particular and a little hard to deal with at times due to my over attention to detail and wanting every single detail preplanned and perfectly executed. Tara my venue coordinator was very accommodating to my "type A" personality :) She was very patient with me no matter how many times I contacted her, or regardless of how many times I stopped by the venue to run through things or do mock set ups, and was always just a email/ phone call away throughout the entire planning process. Leading up to the wedding one thing that I had not thought about prior to booking this venue is that we wanted a traditional soul food cuisine and the venue does not offer outside catering. Tara went above and beyond to meet my needs by helping us put together a custom menu using items from their various banquet menus. She also allowed us to request extra seasonings and provide details on how to turn their traditional menu Mac and cheese to "southern style baked Mac and cheese to give the food the southern flare we desired. The chef did an amazing job of executing it and the food was delicious and an absolute hit! My family (including the great aunties and grandparents) whom are tuff food critics were very pleased! We had absolutely NO complaints with anything related to the venue on our big day and would like to thank the staff at the Abbington Distinctive Banquets for being top tier! Everything was perfect!!!

So, let me talk about the people behind the location. Their team is attentive to both clients and vendors. They make working at this location a dream for the vendors, which lets us (vendors) focus on making the clients dreams come true. This location is fun, elegant, modern, and a must book! The food and drinks are delightful as well. We love the team and I promise, you will too!

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.

Osteria Via Stato is one of my favorite restaurants and it was a dream to have our wedding there! Natalie and her staff are easy to work with, they have great communication, knowledge, and experience. We loved the execution of our wedding by them, the ceremony was perfect for us, it was dreamy in their gorgeous dining room, but you would never guess it was a dining room with the way they set it up for the wedding. Our private room was perfect for our party of 55. We used farmhouse style tables and it was perfect for us as we didn’t want a dance floor. The servers there cannot be beat, they are all extremely experienced, friendly and happy to be there. They went above and beyond to ensure that me and my wife always had the first choice of everything and always had a drink in hand. I’ve been to many weddings where the food is fine or not desirable, but the food here was incredible! Going into this I knew it would be good but I didn’t know how delicious all the hors d’oeuvres would be. We couldn’t just pick a few we liked them all! And the entrees were delicious, every guest felt full and well fed!! We got comments from all of our guests about how great the food, venue and service were! Everyone was pleased and you don’t often find that from wedding venues. We loved having our wedding here and love that we can return whenever we please to celebrate special occasions!

We had our wedding and reception at the Sky-Line Club. It was a truly magical day for us and our guests. I can't begin to thank the staff at the Sky-Line Club for all they did for us throughout the entire day. The wedding was on the outdoor terrace with breathtaking views of the city. The menu that they helped create was absolutely delicious. Our guests kept going back to all of the food stations, making sure they had sampled every item on the menu. The staff made all of our guest feel at home, even though the majority were from out of town. Being able to go out on the terrace during the evening reception allowed our guests to experience the beautiful Chicago skyline and get some air in between dances. I would highly recommend the Sky-Line Club.

Awarded Best of Zola
My husband and I had the luxury of hosting our special day at Hyatt Regency Chicago. We knew it would be a seamless day with Rebecca Stern at the helm. She provided innovative ideas, solutions to areas of opportunity, and always provided a listening ear with any inquiry that arose. The Hotel Staff was prompt with any onsite request(s), and made our Guests feel welcomed from the point of arrival until post-Wedding Brunch. We utilized the onsite Outlet restaurant(s) for various social gatherings, and felt the Team was well prepared for our Wedding weekend. For out-of-town Guests, or suburban locals, their location alone allows for scenic exploring and easy transportation from Ceremony to Reception location(s). We hosted a post-Wedding Brunch onsite, and it capped off a wonderful weekend. We highly recommend Hyatt Regency Chicago for your special day!

Previous residents added details reflecting the styles of grand movie theaters and the glamorous neoclassical revival flair of the 1920’s and 1930’s, giving the house a relaxed but unified mix of architectural styles. From the majestic crystal chandelier escorting you down the grand staircase to the marble fireplaces, we invite you to imagine the house is yours for the day as you invite family and friends in to celebrate your union.

We were drawn to Colvin House because of the mansion's historic details, but believe it truly shines when paired with the talents of Pyrite Sun, their in-house planning, catering, rentals, and floral team. We met with Sarah (Colvin's Events Manager/Owner of Pyrite Sun) to tour the space and ended up hiring Pyrite Sun for our entire wedding at Colvin House. Not only was it convenient to have everything under one roof, but we had a personalized wedding experience like no other–complete with vintage furniture, plates, and coupes, the most incredible floral from Colvin's gardens, and a customized food menu that our guests still rave about. I also love that Sarah recommends great vendors they've worked with and happily coordinates whatever you need with any other vendors you'd like to hire, as well. Overall, an incredibly special experience you won't find anywhere else. Thank you, Colvin House and Pyrite Sun, for making our vintage glamour wedding dreams come true!

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.
