Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Sleekly designed by an award-winning event planner, this fresh Chicago venue in the welcoming Irving Park/Avondale neighborhood was expressly crafted to bring couples’ dreams come to life. With over 10,000 square feet of functional space, this gorgeous blank canvas is an experimental playground that's as functional as it is fabulous, giving you complete freedom to design your perfect day.
- Two airy, modern event spaces easily pair together, each adorned with matte black beams and rafters, inset skylights, crisp white walls, and gleaming gold fixtures. Drape a gauzy backdrop in one area to create a custom altar, then transition to cocktail hour in the adjacent space while the room is flipped for dinner & dancing. There’s also an outdoor courtyard, providing even more options for crafting your event’s flow.
- You’ll have the space exclusively for twelve hours, so you’ll never feel rushed. Ample in-house amenities—like a dedicated parking lot, easy vendor access, inviting lounge vignettes, and luxe tables & chairs—mean you can focus on the special, personal details. There are even two dressing rooms on site: the Green Room and the adorable Something Blue suite, with its vibrant floral wallpaper and ample natural light.
