CW is the BEST!!

We couldn't be happier with how our wedding at the Chicago Winery turned out! We booked our date before CW construction was fully complete, but we loved everything about the space from the very beginning. It is an incredibly warm and inviting venue that was perfect for our day - we absolutely loved the ceremony/reception space but also really enjoyed having the terrace space for cocktail hour and as a quieter area during the reception for guests to step out while the band was playing. We had about 170 people at our event, and it was the perfect number for the space. One of the big selling points for us was that CW handles all food and drink onsite and everything was WONDERFUL. One of the top compliments we received from guests was how good the food was. The CW team made us feel special and celebrated throughout the entire process and were very flexible and accommodating based on our various needs. We had the pleasure of working with Hulda, the CW event coordinator, in the months leading up to our wedding and cannot say enough great things about her!! Hulda was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She answered all of our random questions and made us feel at ease with all of the details. The day-of event staff was also so excellent – everyone was so nice and clearly working so hard to keep everything moving. We are so grateful for the awesome CW event team!

Our experience with Chicago Winery was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. They were incredibly responsive, thorough, and organized throughout the entire planning process, always quick to answer any questions we had. The venue itself is romantic, warm, and chic - the perfect backdrop for our special day. They were very intuitive, anticipating our needs before we even had to ask, and went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was flawless. They made the process so easy and stress-free. The food was amazing and the space is beautiful as is - you don't need to add much at all but some flowers and candles really make the space. We couldn't have asked for a better venue and highly recommend Chicago Winery to any couple looking for a truly special wedding experience.

Hi Danielle, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our team. Nothing makes us happier than a happy couple. We are thrilled that your wedding exceeded your expectations. It warms my heart to read review that express how "easy" and "stress-free" the process was, those are not words people typically associate with weddings. We hope to see you in for your anniversary for years to come, toasting with the same wine from your wedding day! Congrats and enjoy newly wed life! Lindsey & Chicago Winery Family
Cant recommend Chicago Winery enough!

Our wedding day & the planning leading up to it was absolutely perfect and we can't thank the Chicago Winery staff (especially our event manager Hulda!) enough for making our wedding come to life exactly as we dreamed it. The venue is gorgeous, our guests raved about the food/appetizers/cocktails/etc. and it is truly a night we will never forget. Being able to go outside to the cocktail hour terrace was also a huge plus to get people moving around and seeing new parts of the venue while the Chicago Winery staff transformed the whole space from ceremony to reception. We worked with Amy right after booking the space and she was so helpful in being a resource for us to bounce questions off of as we began planning. We utilized a lot of the preferred vendors (florist, DJ, etc.) that Chicago Winery recommended and they did not disappoint. Our event manager, Hulda, was soooooo helpful throughout the last 6 months of preparations and as our day-of manager - we could not have done it without her. She made sure the whole day was perfect and everything timeline-wise lined up exactly as we envisioned it. Can't recommend Chicago Winery enough! 1000000/10
Amazing experience at Chicago Winery!!

We absolutely loved our experience with Chicago Winery. The team at CW is professional, prompt, and went out of their way to make sure we had the most amazing wedding. Chris, our event manager, was outstanding. He is super communicative, organized, and detail oriented, and he totally ran the show for us. It was so great to know we had him to rely on and manage so many pieces of our event, and I truly feel like he significantly reduced our stress. Our wedding party raved about him! The venue itself is gorgeous and we got a ton of compliments from guests about the space and the food. Having the catering and the bar in-house made things so streamlined and easy to plan and the food was wonderful. We are so happy we chose Chicago Winery for our venue and we would highly, highly recommend it to anyone!!
