Restaurant-quality dining for a wedding

We had our wedding in the Cellar room at Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant in Arlington Heights, and it was everything we dreamed. The room is truly fantastic because it sits downstairs away from the rest of the restaurant for a truly private event. Additionally, the room includes a large bar and even a small dance floor.

We worked well with the event planning team who made us feel supported, valued, and at ease during what can be an overwhelming planning process.

The food was absolutely phenomenal. It was beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and served with perfect timing. The delivery of restaurant-quality dining for a wedding is truly impressive. Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was from start to finish.

The service was outstanding as well. The staff was attentive without ever feeling intrusive, extremely professional, and incredibly organized. Everything flowed seamlessly, allowing us to enjoy every moment without a single worry.

One of the things that meant the most to us was how flexible and accommodating they were with the décor. They allowed us to transform the space into a very elegant setting that perfectly matched our vision. Every detail, from the color palette to the floral and candle arrangements, was able to shine because they gave us the space and freedom to design the atmosphere we wanted. They also worked beautifully with all of our vendors, making coordination easy and stress-free.

A very special thank-you goes to our event manager, who was truly exceptional. She was responsive, patient, detail-oriented, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Her calm leadership and clear communication ensured that everything came together effortlessly.

Our wedding day felt elegant, seamless, and unforgettable—and so much of that is because of the incredible team at Cooper’s Hawk - Arlington Heights. If you’re looking for a venue with amazing food, outstanding service, and a staff that truly cares about bringing your vision to life, we cannot recommend them enough.

Excellent Rehearsal Dinner!

Cooper’s Hawk in Arlington Heights was a fantastic host for our wedding rehearsal dinner. Their venue space was beautiful and picturesque, the food was spectacular (so much so that our guests were talking about it well after the meal), and the service was wonderful as well. We were very impressed with their professionalism, their support, and their overall communication with us. We highly recommend them and would definitely use them for other events! Thank you CH!

The food was great but I was not found of the planning process. The event planner had told us that brides either decorate the space or hire someone. She also said that she could set up our decorations but that it couldn’t be detailed or too time consuming. With that being said, I decided that I would just have my friends and I decorate the space. However, a week before my wedding I was told we could only come in an hour in advance because they had an afternoon event. That would not work out for us because my wedding ceremony was to be held 2 hours before my reception. In addition, the dj i hired couldn’t set up early either because he was also providing the music during and after the ceremony. When I expressed my concerns, I was told they had a selection of centerpieces. All of them looked great so I selected one of their options. Although the place looked great, I ended up wasting money on materials for decorating that I no longer could return. Also, even though the food was great, the dinner service was slow. Some tables were done eating while others were just getting served. Also, during cleanup, one of my guests noticed that party favors and name place card holders (the only two items I provided) were taken by the employees while they were cleaning up the tables. Also during the event, the only time a waiter came up to me was to ask me for my meal preference. It would’ve been nice if they offered to bring me a drink as I was walking around. Although this sounds nit picky, at other weddings I have been to, this has been the standard. Furthermore, for plated dinners, only two meal entree options are available. They charge $5 pp for an additional option choice. Also, for cocktail hour I was told that they place the appetizers on a table because passing them around is too messy. Because I hated this idea, I ended up having a coctail hour at my ceremony space. In conclusion, if I had to pick a reception venue again I would not choose Cooper’s Hawk.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
