Firehouse Chicago

Our guests could not get over how unique and charming this venue is! The flow between rooms throughout the evening was perfect. We rented the whole upstairs and got ready there, which was a huge bonus. There are so many great places to take photos here without having to leave the premises. Not to mention, THE COOLEST reception entrance ever--the fire pole!!

Firehouse is an adorable, vintage wedding venue in the city. When my husband and I saw it we immediately knew it was the perfect place for us to get married. We didn’t realize that on top of a perfect venue we would also be able to work with above and beyond staff who made our wedding an absolute dream. Sarah coordinated everything while being so easy to work with including answering all of my silly questions! She made me feel at ease with everything going on, including when a vendor changed their timeline just a few days before the wedding. The day of staff were also amazing, on the ball helping with everything, and so kind. I can’t say enough amazing things about Firehouse! Go check it out and you will fall in love with this space and it’s people!

From the moment my wife and I walked through the doors at Firehouse we were in love with the location! It was the tin roof ceiling, then the spiral staircase, the large sink-in tub, and all of the decor details that just had us swooning and ready to start planning our whimsy vintage themed wedding here.
The staff seriously exceeded our expectations. Throughout the year that we planned our wedding they were consistently attentive and responsive to all of our inquiries. And when it came to the month coming up to our big day they were on it with our plan and had several back up plans for us. We were eternally grateful for this level of preparation and coordination between vendors when our Chicago Spring weather did a complete 180 5 days from our wedding. They worked diligently in the final days to rearrange our plans and pitched in to help our florist and caterers with a flip that was a drastic change to our original plans in order to make our wedding dreams come true.
Day of they were amazing, starting from first thing in the morning until hours after our event was over they were working so hard making sure we had everything we needed. They were miracle workers packing up all the stuff our wedding party and guests left behind and making sure our family were sent off with everything. Days after the wedding they were still just as accommodating and responsive while we were getting ourselves back together and organizing pickups from vendors.
But also you get to slide down a fire pole for your grand entrance - does it get any cooler than that?!
