JW Marriott Chicago 

5.0

Chicago, IL
  • Venue
  • Up to 400 guests
  • Select services
  • Starts at $25,000

Originally designed in 1914 by renowned architect Daniel Burnham, our luxurious Landmark hotel is a premier wedding venue. The JW Marriott Chicago offers classic elegance and modern style, surrounded by the Windy City's finest dining, entertainment and cultural experiences. JW Marriott Chicago features 44,000 square feet of flexible event venues, each elegantly designed to sweep you off your feet. Your wedding guests will be enchanted by the soaring ceilings, majestic chandeliers and exquisite architecture. Each of our hotel's venues is available to be included in your customized wedding package.

WOW! We recently hosted our daughter’s wedding in the Burnham Ballroom at the JW Marriott on west Adams, and it was a huge success on every level. There may be many hotels in the downtown/River North area that can accommodate 250 for a wedding, but none matched the combination of value, historic beauty, and a dedicated & coordinated team that is so client-focused as the JW Marriott downtown. From our first jaw-dropping peek at the remodeled exquisite Burnham Ballroom (after viewing over 20 other nearby venues), the JW instantly “vaulted” into first place. But first we had to get through the contract negotiating process, and Anita made that stress-free. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, responsive, candid and friendly, and is empowered to make most contract tweaks without constantly having to get approvals from others. The JW also offers a choice of various incentives to make the package even more attractive. And when you consider that nearly everything is included and onsite, the JW is a surprisingly good value over some of the trendy raw spaces. Once the contract was signed, Anita handed off the ongoing coordination to Bridget Kalsch and her team. Bridget is experienced, calming, patient and low-key, keeps track of every detail, has great and practical suggestions, and is uber-responsive to e-mail. Chef Lori was also incredibly amenable to tweaking recipes (in view of our restrictions). We were expecting “wedding food,” but we and our guests were all blown away by the presentation, preparation and portions. From appetizers through to the "Afterglow" of late-night snacks, everything was unique, plentiful, memorable and delicious. Jackie and her team made everything go smoothly on the day-of. We had thrown another wedding in the Loop just 11 months before and the JW team exceeded every expectation. Even our planner said he’d never seen a wedding for 250 people go so smoothly, with no hiccups. We are admittedly a high-maintenance client, and appreciated all of the following. • We had many dietary restrictions/preferences, and specialty elements we wanted included, and they made everything happen. • We needed to accommodate a large number of out-of-towners, and Patricia made the process painless and seamless. • The fourth floor setup, with its multiple breakout rooms and large hospitality suite adjacent to the Ballroom, is extremely convenient and flexible for before, during and after the wedding. • The bridal suite was spacious, gorgeous and flowed through to the adjoining guest room, so the large bridal party had plenty of space to relax and get ready (including hair and makeup) the morning-of; the hospitality suite was a perfect place for the groomsmen to get ready and for an afterparty for the bride & groom’s friends. • The historic lobby and second floor of the hotel provide an elegant backdrop for portraits/photos. • The Encore team, headed by Bob Heise, which handles the AV and the sophisticated lighting options for the Ballroom ceiling, was creative and helpful. • Unlike some high-profile ballrooms in the Chicago area, the Burnham Ballroom, with its arched ceiling, is acoustically perfect. We’re done planning weddings, but we’d strongly and enthusiastically recommend the JW! They went above & beyond in every way.

Hello future brides! I'm Audrey O'Shanna, owner and operator of Windy City Cookies. I specialize in custom sugar cookies. From favors to bachelorette parties, showers, and every event in-between. I love taking your vision and bringing it to life in the most delicious way! Fun fact about me, I took 1st place in the pastry division at "The Chicago's Best Baker" competition in 2018!

Having sampled Audrey’s cookies before at other parties, I knew that she’d create something beautiful and delicious for our bridal shower. I was able to fill out a simple online form, and then did a quick phone consult to discuss our themes. Audrey delivered on several amazingly detailed designs, each individually wrapped, almost too pretty to eat! But these are definitely cookies that SHOULD be eaten, as they’re soft and delectable!

My husband and I booked Flowers by Stem after speaking with Stephanie and discussing our budget & vision. She sent back an amazing proposal and we just had to lock them in for our big day. From the beginning they were easy to communicate with and when things were changing closer to the date, they quickly responded and made sure we were all set. On the day of the wedding, they were right on time, and I am so thrilled and happy we went with them because the flowers and decor were more beautiful than I could have ever imagined! Stephanie & her team delivered exactly what they promised and more! We received so many compliments about the bouquets, flowers & decor on the day-of and for days after! We truly appreciated how special they helped make our day! We cannot recommend enough!

Shannon O'Brien

  • Beauty professional
  • Team of 4
  • Starts at $1,000 per person
  • Serves Wheeling, IL

Shannon and her team explore the captivating world of shape and color from a place of openness and expertise, with the conviction that beauty isn’t meant to be covered up, it’s meant to be celebrated. Creating looks for you to transcend without transforming who you are on your big day.

One of the FIRST pieces of advice I had when I got engaged was to hire Shannon O'Brien. And easily, that was one of the BEST pieces of advice I had. I booked her before I had any other information about my wedding at my fingertips. I was too afraid that if I didn't get her locked down right away, that I'd always have wished I did that first and foremost. Shannon is truly delightful. She comes ready to work with a smile and a suitcase full of cosmetics more organized than some makeup stores. She is a true artist and works everyone's face like a canvas- she can make anyone look like a complete goddess. I hired her to do my makeup, as well as my bridal party, mother, and mother-in-law and EVERYONE left saying that they haven't looked that good EVER. I know you're supposed to wash your face every night before bed ESPECIALLY when you have makeup on, but I have to say that I was very hesitant to listen to that rule- both times she did my makeup (after the trial and after the wedding). I've truly never felt or looked better and it was all in part to her makeup magic. She is a makeup wizard and her wand is a brush. Another great thing is, she allows you to give input. She lets you tell her how you feel best, what you think looks best on you, to bring in pictures of inspiration looks- and then she also gives you suggestions. She told me to expect that things may shift a little on the wedding day, as things like a tan, etc can change some of the makeup that may not have been done exactly at the trial. The look she did for my wedding wasn't a far cry from the trial, but I loved it even more! After seeing my hair and the whole look for the day, she felt inspired to do something a little different and there's nobody I'd blindly trust more with their makeup work than Shannon. In fact, if she never said a thing about what she planned to do and just went to town on my face, I'd have been thrilled. She's just THAT good. Aside from her amazing talent and artistry is her attitude. A HUGE thing for me was having a positive feeling in the room as I was preparing for the day. Someone that would add radiance and she did just that. Her disposition is sunny and she made everyone feel like the most beautiful person (inside and out). She brings an air of fun to the room, which, of course, is always welcome. Trust me on this, you'll be looking for any excuse after your wedding to have her do your makeup again. Just book her- there is no way you'll regret it.

I love color and a well-curated day trip. I have a total obsession with plants and finding the best Spotify playlists. When I’m not flowering, you’ll probably find me thrifting for bespoke home finds, dominating 1500-piece puzzles, and scouring the internet for the next best concert in Chicago.

We used Project 1952 for our engagement party. We were so thrilled with the outcome. Naimah was so engaged and attentive to our vision for the day. She took our vision and made it come to life while using her own creativity. She arrived well ahead of time to get the room set up and the arrangements in place. She thought about every detail down to edible flowers and glitter in the ice cubes that had our guests raving. She was so easy to work with and went above and beyond what we had asked of her. We could not recommend her work enough! We will definitely be using her again!

The Library and The Stacks are two of the most stunning and unique places in Chicago for a wedding or special event. The Library is so classic Chicago with and The Stacks is such a cool, modern space...and they work together so well for events! I don't know where else you can have an event surrounded by thousands of historic law books and amazing architecture. Plus you get amazing views of the city out of every window! Aurieann and her team are so fun and easy to work with that I wish we did all of our events here! They are detailed, organized, and incredibly helpful with recommendations about how to best utilize the space for each event. They make the planning process fun for the clients and give the vendors the space and resources they need to do incredible work for the clients. They are truly event partners in every sense of the word and treat each and every event with the care and attention it deserves to make sure the clients have the best experience possible. If you can't tell from my review this venue comes with the highest recommendation I could give! If you are even considering this venue do yourself a favor and call Aurieann to setup a tour to see it in person!

The food was incredible, the bar was managed well (no lines) and Natalie works hard to make it an amazing day and keep it within your budget. We cannot recommend the Bottom Lounge enough!

Thank you for stopping by and looking through my work. I approach wedding photography with two philosophies: One is to be photo-journalistic. Capturing those unexpected moments, a flirty glance, a secret kiss or a burst of laughter. These are the small details and intimate moments that tell your story. My other philosophy is to be editorial. To direct, compose, and create interesting shots. These are the pictures that will be high-impact, dramatic and creative. Although I have a photo-journalistic approach throughout the day, I understand the importance of formal family pictures. So, be assured we will get all of those as well.

We host various vendors at both locations but by far he is the best and easiest to work with. if possible we would only partner with Tequila Weddings.

Our wedding was a mix of English speakers and Spanish speakers so we were nervous how we would execute a smooth and fun night for all and DJ Persist did it with ease! He did all announcements in both English and Spanish, knew the right music to play for all to enjoy and have a great evening. Besides his excellent DJ and MC skills, he also was extremely professional and patient with us the entire process. He has a really nice software for you to use while planning your timeline and music selections. If you’re unsure where to even begin, it also provides you music suggestions that are popular with weddings. We also utilized some of his upgrades (cold sparklers, uplighting, and upgraded dance floor lightings) and those truly took our night up a notch! We can’t recommend him enough!!!!

Your wedding or elopement is one full of raw moments, and it is our job to weave these together cohesively. We always approach each film with a detail-oriented eye, considering you, the film, the composition, the audio, the lighting, and everything in between, to ensure we achieve a comprehensive film with an emotional impact. It is also a priority of ours that your film resonates with your spirit. That it represents you, your story, your love, and your style authentically. That's why we get to know you and your partner well and cater to your preferred look.

My husband and I recently got married in December, 2023. I'm so grateful we hired Rick and his team to be our videographer!! I would highly recommend using them. Rick was very professional and supportive throughout the entire process. We set up a few calls while being engaged to prepare for the day. He also worked really well with our photographer to gameplan for the day. This was HUGE because they were able to work together to obtain all the shots needed and didn't step on each other's toes. Rick put together a 2 minute clip of the day, and I watch it everyday! The shots he chose and the music he tied with it was so meaningful. It was a perfect video to showcase the day. I shared it on social media. He also put together a full 45 minute video of the day that includes special events and speeches of the day, so we won't forget anything special that happened! Again, we are so grateful we worked with Rick. He captures all the special moments and now we have his work to look back on the wonderful day! Thank you!

WHIM Chicago is an immersive art space curated by hundreds of Chicago artists. Host your event in the Lobby of Second Chances and the Enchanted Forest and treat your guests to the immersive walk through experience. Full service bar with immersive and playful cocktail menu.

WHIM was a perfect evening out with friends! While checking in, we got our first glimpse at the magnificent art space that is Whim. So much to look at! Then we made our way over to the bar area. Our bartender made some recommendations based on what we liked to drink. The walk through experience was like nothing I’d seen before. Each room was unique, yet it told a different story about time. After our walk through we went to the art gallery and saw the featured art for Pride. I love that Whim supports all artists!!
