Dream wedding

We were married just 2 days ago and I could not wait to post this review. We did the all inclusive package with Room 1520 and let me tell you this is absolutely where you want to have your wedding. We had DJ, Photo Booth and day of coordinator included and every single service went above and beyond our expectations. Nicole and Alison helped us make so many important decisions and ensured the day went smooth. We are still on cloud 9. My guests could not stop commenting on how beautiful the venue was. We barely needed decor because this space is so beautiful itself. Thank you for making our day perfect.

We wouldn't want to have been anywhere else!

Room 1520 took us in when our first wedding venue abruptly closed a few months out from our wedding date, and we can't be more thankful! Not only were they so generous with they're pricing, but their professionalism and responsiveness were so much better than a lot of other venues we looked at and made the choice a really simple one. In the end, we can't imagine having our wedding anywhere else! It was so beautiful and so perfect for our group of 65. They worked really well with our other vendors and made everything run so smoothly so we could focus on enjoying the night. They're really a top notch team and an easy choice for an incredible wedding venue!

Bright, beautiful space - and incredible team!

Early on we knew Room 1520 would be our venue of choice for our wedding. The packages they offer for the space and the team that is there to support you the entire day is truly the best of the best in the city of Chicago.

We booked the venue awhile ago when Ashley was the manager and she was so helpful - providing recommendations for other vendors and answering all of our big and small questions. After she left we were beyond excited to know that the venue management duties were being done by the Urban Allure team. Ellie was there with Nicole to support us throughout our wedding day.

The day before we dropped all of our items at the venue and Ellie placed everything perfectly - not once did I think "did they do this?" everything was handled down to every last detail.

Post wedding, all of our items were packed neatly and it was as simple as picking up the boxes and heading out the door. The entire team is great, but the space is also super versatile. It's a big bright space and we designed it in a way that isn't usually done and we got so many compliments on the venue - it was the perfect size and space for our big day!

What a great venue for a wedding! As president of Fourth Estate Audio, I've been privileged to provide professional DJ entertainment at Room 1520 many times. And I am consistently impressed with the personal attention each client, guest and vendor receives. As a simple, intimate, all-white room, it's extraordinarily flexible, and the perfect place for couples who want to add their own personal decor and coloring without clashing with anything. Here's a gallery of a recent wedding we did at Room 1520: https://www.pinterest.com/chicagodjlights/angelica-patrick-bermudez-real-chicago-wedding/. A big thumbs-up for Room 1520!
