Most Beautiful Venue in Chicago!

I can’t say enough wonderful things about how amazing this venue is! Chez was the only venue in Chicago that checked every single box for our wedding. We had both our ceremony and reception in the space. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue! Natalie and her team were an absolute dream to work with! Natalie was extremely organized throughout our planning process and always made sure to keep us to date on any changes or details for our big day. Our guests are still raving about how gorgeous the venue was and how seamless things were. I am so happy we were able to host our dream wedding in the beautiful space, worth every penny!

A Beautiful Chicago Venue

Chez is an absolutely beautiful venue, perfect for city couples! It's a big blank canvas, so you can truly turn it into anything you want for your special day. We had our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception at Chez, and everything turned out beautifully. McKenna was so helpful throughout the process, and was even able to help fluff my dress and cue me to walk down the stairs during the ceremony. I recommend Chez to any couple who wants to be creative and build a beautiful space of their own.

Absolutely Wonderful!

My husband and I got married there this past April and it was phenomenal. It is a big beautiful blank canvas to create YOUR special day. Lauren and McKenna assisted us throughout the entire process and honestly that’s one of the many reasons we went with Chez. Both of them are so nice and extremely helpful! (The staff even snuck me in when my guest got there too early haha) With them, it’s possible to have a perfect day! People are still asking how did we find such a gem!!

My husband and I recently had our wedding at Chez last October. We really went with the best choice when we picked Chez. Getting married in Chicago was very important to us, but we didn't want to spend outside of our means. Chez offered us everything that we wanted at a reasonable price. The location is amazing - our first look pictures are stunning! We went to the Wrigley Building and down to the Riverwalk to take pictures before the ceremony. At Chez, we were able to have our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all at one location. The vendors did a great job of flipping the space in between our ceremony and reception. The space itself allowed us to have the elegant, romantic wedding we wanted. I can't say enough great things about Chez. Kristie and Lauren were amazing. Definitely consider this venue!

My husband and I got married a few weeks ago at Chez and absolutely loved the venue. We also have a fantastic experience with the event staff. We started looking and decided on the venue prior to hiring our planner and Lauren Smith at Chez was welcoming, helpful, encouraging and informative. She went above and beyond to answer our questions, provide suggestions and remain transparent. The other fantastic thing about Chez is you can really turn the space into whatever you want - with the high ceilings and white walls there's a lot of potential to make it your own. The only thing to keep in mind is, like other loft/event venues, you'll need to bring in caterers and decor people which add costs. We were debating between Chez and other loft spaces and we could not have been happier with our decision!

We recently got married at Chez, and all I have to say is WOW. It is an incredible venue! Our vision came to life here and we really were able to celebrate our dream wedding. We found that most of the loft venues in Chicago had a rustic/vintage vibe to it. It was pretty, but not our style. We really wanted a modern wedding that was also somewhat minimalist. Chez fit the bill perfectly. The lights, the windows, the tall ceilings - just so beautiful! Our guests also loved the venue and really enjoyed that it was so unique. We worked with both Lauren and Kristie, and both were super helpful throughout the planning process. The venue also includes tables, chairs, and highboy/cabaret tables. It was also really important for my hubby and I to have our little dog as part of the ceremony (he was our ring boy). Chez was more than willing to accommodate for him, and even allowed him to come in the day before for the rehearsal (so he could practice also!). I seriously could not recommend this venue more.

One word... SPECTACULAR!!!! Chez was the perfect space for our wedding!!! The ability to literally make the space your own was unlike anything else I had seen in the city. We had both our ceremony and reception at Chez, and Lauren and Kristie were both amazing every step of the way in helping us plan our big day. From the list of preferred vendors, to answering any and all of my questions super quickly, there is simply no place we would have rather celebrated our big day. Thank you so much Lauren and Kristie for going to extra mile every step of the way to ensure our day was everything we'd ever hoped for!!!

I am a Wedding Planner with Storybook Weddings and Events here in Chicago, and I had the pleasure of having a wedding at Chez last month. First of all, the space itself is a wonderful place to have a private event or wedding. It is clean and set up nicely. And the best feature is that is all white, which makes it an easy space to work with when it comes to decor. We had Kehoe work it's magic and they totally transformed the space to the couple's vision.

And not only is the actual space great, but their team is equally amazing. I worked with Lauren and Kristie during the planning process, and everything was executed wonderfully on the couple's wedding day. Lauren and Kristie are very quick to respond to your questions and have very calm energies... they are pros and they know what works best in the space. Thank you for all of your help, ladies! I highly recommend checking out Chez to host your next private event, whether it is social or corporate ????

I found Chez online when I was searching for a wedding venue. We were initially drawn to the space because of it's history and clean sleek lines. I scheduled a trip to see the space with my fiance and Christine showed us through on a "hard hat" tour. I absolutely fell in love at first site - before they added all the beautiful finishes!

Our wedding was on the small side (60 guests) and non-traditional/modern. We didn't have anyone sit for the ceremony (as it lasted about 5 minutes) but transformed the staircase into a lovely backdrop with flowers.

Chez truly is a blank canvas - Christine and the vendors she put me in touch with (Dilly Lily, Food for Thought and Art of Imagination) helped me accomplish every detail of my modern vision (and Christine helped persuade my traditional mom as well).

I had a wonderful experience there and the best day of my life so far! Thank you so much to Chez!

Chez was the perfect place for our wedding reception. What I like that it offered was to be in the heart of the city, but not be overly expensive, and not be cooped up in a hotel ballroom. It has large windows that let light in. I say that the space is a bride's dream because you can turn it in to whatever you want!! The space is like a blank canvas to do whatever ever type of theme or decorating you'd like. Christine was amazing to work with. She always was very helpful and answered my questions, and gave me suggestions since I was working from out of town. She was friendly, kind and flexible to help me get set up. We had mostly out of town guests, and everyone raved about the space with the industrial look and the gorgeous glass staircase. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to design and really create their own special day.
