LM Studio could not have been a better choice for our wedding day! Kristin, Shelby, and the whole staff were absolute rockstars, especially the week leading up to the wedding! They were so helpful, and since we didn't have a planner, I literally feel like I could not have done it without them. In addition to the team, the venue was absolute perfection. It was so beautiful, and getting married in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with that view was absolutely magical. We're big Chicago people, so being so close to the park and just a quick ride to the river was amazing for photos. We were a little worried that it would be a bit tight, but honestly it was a great size for our guest count of 150 people. Our guests kept raving about the space and the food! I cannot have asked for a more perfect day and I would 1000000/10 recommend LM Studio for your wedding day!!!

We booked Pinstripes Chicago for our 30 person rehearsal dinner in a private space and they not only let us request last minute to do a ceremony rehearsal (our wedding venue had another wedding and couldn't accommodate us), they set up another space for us as a small ceremony, so it felt realistic and was so helpful. After dinner, we welcomed another 100 guests for a fantastic welcome reception and all our guests raved about the food, drinks, service, and the fun twist of bocce games!

Beautiful venue and stunning for the price compared to a lot of locations. Really easy to work with but we found ourselves repeating details A LOT and yet some of them got lost anyways - for example, I had made a full allergy list for the reception organized by table, and yet staff brought me (the bride) food I am dangerously allergic to. It was fixed quickly but annoying because I’d spent so much time preparing this and details got lost anyways. This happened in multiple ways. Several things—ceremony set up, rehearsal timeline, etc—were easily fixed, but shouldn’t have needed to be fixed in the first place, given the amount of prep we did.

Their communication style was outstanding and efficient, and the quality of their work was breathtaking!
