5 Unique Chicago Wedding Venues

Chicago is one of the best cities in the world. From the food and nightlife to the art and lakefront, there’s nothing you can’t get in the Windy City. And the same goes for wedding venues! If you’re looking for wedding venues in Chicago and you don’t want the standard banquet hall or ballroom feel, below are five unique wedding venues to consider.  

Room 1520

Located in the heart of Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood, Room 1520 is a spacious, historical loft building that will surround your event with one-of-a-kind details. Towering ceilings; a dramatic, handcrafted staircase; a mirrored, white-washed antique bar; Italian crystal chandeliers; daylight windows; and white exposed brick to mention a few.

Theater on the Lake

One of the only Lakefront event venues in the city, Theater on the Lake is a flexible and fully enclosed event space offering a gorgeous view of the Chicago skyline while overlooking Lake Michigan.

Chicago Cultural Center

A stunning landmark home to two magnificent stained-glass domes (one of which is the world’s largest Tiffany dome!), the Chicago Cultural Center features graceful arches inlaid with sparkling mosaics, along with 25 Tiffany glass chandeliers spaced throughout Preston Bradley Hall with a stunning view of Millennium Park.

Chicago Winery

An elegant, full-service winery in the River North neighborhood with to-dine-for food and drink from a talented in-house culinary team and winemakers, Chicago Winery has flexible indoor and outdoor spaces — including a dreamy all-season rooftop terrace and views into the working winery — that provide the perfect backdrop for a ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception with a dance floor.

Revel Motor Row

A city landmark rich in Chicago history, Revel Motor Row has been restored as an event production space to help fuel the resurgence of an iconic neighborhood with its full-service venue including an epic 5,000 square foot outdoor private courtyard!
