Excellent Service!!
From the first time we saw the venue, my husband and I knew right at that moment that we found “the one.” The place is just absolutely beautiful! Our first point of contact is Lucy and she was very helpful and professional. During the planning stage, I had no stress at all. The whole team was very helpful, organized and responded quickly every single time. They listened to all my requests and concerns. On the wedding day, the banquet manager, Adam was right there making sure everything was running smoothly. The food And service were great. Our head server and the server in our sweetheart table were both so friendly and they made us feel important all throughout the night!! Overall, my husband and I were so happy that we had our wedding at The Odyssey!!!The Odyssey 's reply:
Thank you for the beautiful review, Charlene!
We are so happy you selected The Odyssey for your BIG DAY and even happier to hear you enjoyed your experience.
Once again, congratulations! We wish you both a lifetime of love and happiness! -

A wonderful experience
My husband and I locked down The Odyssey as our venue for the wedding as soon as we saw it. We had visited TEN venues all over the Chicagoland area, and all of them had been either too expensive or unwilling to work with us in certain respects (for example, providing halal/kosher meat). The Odyssey, on the other hand, was incredibly accommodating, more affordable than most, and had the best food we had ever tasted at a wedding! On top of all this, the actual location is gorgeous! The reception ballroom was perfect and the outdoor ceremony area is just breathtaking. The staff at The Odyssey were always available to answer questions (thank you Kelli for EVERYTHING!!!). They were gracious and kind and incredibly patient, and they were able to make our day very special. I literally had guests coming up to me at the wedding asking how I found such an incredible venue. I have a cousin who is already planning to use The Odyssey as her venue when she gets married!!! All in all, we couldn't ask for a better venue: stunning location, accommodating staff, and delicious food!The Odyssey 's reply:
Thank you so much for choosing The Odyssey, Nadia!
It was a pleasure working with you and we're happy to hear you had a wonderful experience with our staff! Once again, congratulations! -

The Wedding Machine
My husband and I like to call the Odyssey a "machine" because that's how organized each of their coordinators are. We had our wedding reception, 250 people, at this location and it could not have gone better. The day of was perfect. The staff could not have been nicer, and we were complimented on the food ALL NIGHT! Leading up to the day of, I could not have been more assured in my choice of The Odyssey. Every annoying question I had, was met with a patient and RAPID response. The response time of emails was an most an hour. For an anxious bride, this was HUGE. The venue is beautiful, the staff is amazing, and the food was delicious. I highly highly recommend!The Odyssey 's reply:
Hi Kimmie & Dan!
Thank you so much for the kind words and feedback. It was a pleasure working with you both throughout the entire planning process and we're thrilled to hear your BIG DAY was perfect!
Come back and visit us soon!
Sincerely,

Beautiful renovations, best food, unbeatable price
The staff was so kind, responsive, flexible with us and our requests and questions. We had so many compliments on the food and it was sooo good! They gave a voucher for free brunch there which was also delicious! The Odyssey recently had beautiful, modern renovations and we didn’t even decorate or need the fancier chairs. We had 310 people at our wedding and rented out the West & Odyssey ballrooms with more than enough space to dance, have a kings table, an extra bar, photo booth, and dessert/late night snack table. The outdoor patio was so beautiful and popular with guests. This was the most affordable option for us and easiest as they do most of the work for you. We were nervous there was a music festival at the amphitheater all day the day of our wedding but traffic was not a problem and we could not even really hear it. I recommend this venue to everyone!!The Odyssey 's reply:
Thank you for the kind words, Sabrina! It was a pleasure hosting your BIG DAY! Congrats once again to you and Ryan! :) -

June 22, 2019 Wedding
My husband and I got married at The Odyssey this summer. We had our ceremony at the West Gazebo and our reception at the West Ballroom. The whole month leading up to our wedding day, I was so nervous that we wouldn't be able to have our ceremony outside at the gazebo because it might rain. However, It was a picture perfect day and our photos turned out absolutely gorgeous agains the Odyssey background. We received so many compliments from our friends and family about our gorgeous venue.
All of the event specialists have been a true pleasure to work with. I was a nervous bride with many questions but they were always so kind and prompt with responses. They definitely made wedding planning so much easier. They helped me take care of so many details - food, linens, decor, lighting... I especially loved that they were able to help me set up our place card/gift tables, since I didn't have a wedding planner and didn't want to trouble my family. The tables looked amazing!
The banquet manager during the day of the wedding was also so attentive. I really have no complaints about The Odyssey. I'd highly recommend them!-

Very professional and accommodating. The staff went above effort to accommodate our dessert table needs as well as overall planning. We were able to take advantage of off season pricing. We highly recommend this venue! -

Perfect Day
My husband and I just got married at The Odyssey yesterday, November 24th. To say we had an amazing experience, would be an understatement.
First, the venue was decorated for Christmas and looked gorgeous. Pictures we've received thus far have been amazing.
Next, the staff and servers were so accommodating and helpful during our entire experience. If we had questions or concerns, someone was on it at all times.
I would, without a doubt, recommend The Odyssey Country Club to anyone looking for a top notch experience. Thank you for making our day nothing but amazing, and going above and beyond for us. -

No complaints, only praises! The Odyssey did a great job for our wedding reception, we're so glad we chose them. Everyone in the events and catering office is so professional, I worked most with Kristina and Jaclyn, and every interaction with them put any worries I had at ease, was so informative, and incredibly helpful. They are very reasonable and upfront with their pricing. There was another wedding happening at the venue at the same time as ours and I was worried that would be distracting, but I barely even noticed another wedding was happening - couldn't hear their party at all and it felt like we were the only party there! The interior of this venue is GORGEOUS and great for pictures. The grounds are also beautiful. The food is DELICIOUS! They handled everything with professionalism and care. Highly recommend for any wedding reception! Our pictures are from a late April wedding, so the weather was still a little chilly (mid 50s), but the venue was still beautiful! -

I would strongly recommend The Odyssey as your wedding venue! Their experience, professionalism, and consideration were through the roof. They helped us every step of the way and accommodated everything that I envisioned for my wedding day. The staff at Odyssey made the day less stressful since they took care of everything having to do with the venue!-

Our entire experience with the odyssey was amazing. From the event staff, to the planning, to the food---everything was absolutely amazing. The planning process was made so much easier by the office girls attention to detail.
I've been to a lot of weddings where banquet food is sub par. The odyssey catering staff is truly amazing. We did family style to give our guests more options, and the feedback was nothing short of phenomenal. Highly recommend the dessert table add on! So tasty! And the wait staff was exceptional! So attentive and sweet the entire night.
The east gazebo and the terrace ballroom were the perfect setting and made my little girl wedding fantasies a reality.
Thank you so much to everyone there for an unforgettable day. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful venue!
