Awesome wedding

We had a great experience working with Five Points. We got married in the fall of 2020. With the pandemic, we had a lot of last-minute changes to our accommodations and set up. Mike did a great job making sure everything was taken care of. Justin and I would highly recommend Five Points.

Great reception

We had our wedding reception at Five Points and I can’t recommend it enough. Great location, with a beautiful inside area. There's a really nice outdoor area right next to the ballroom. Plenty of parking. Five Points staff was amazing and was so helpful.

Great wedding

We had our wedding and reception at five points. I can't say enough good things about how everything went. Mike was wonderful to work with. The patio and reception rooms were beautiful. The staff was extremely accommodating and friendly. Everyone enjoyed themselves. We are super happy with our decision to get married at Five Points. It was everything that I had pictured and then some 😊. Well done.

Awesome wedding

Five Points Washington was the perfect venue for us. My cousin got married here last year, so we knew from her wedding that we like their facility. The price was a great deal compared to some of the other places we were looking at. They allow you to work with outside caterers which really helped keep our costs in check. They also didn’t try to oversell us into spending more than our budget. They made sure we had everything we asked for before we arrived. I wish there was a hotel closer, but we had a shuttle that took us back and forth from the reception.

Great Venue - For a Wedding Reception

Brian and Stephanie were great to work with. They returned emails, phone calls, and met every one of our requests. Very clean facility, and they absolutely should be in your list of places to host your reception. Pricing was very reasonable and they work with many local caterers and other services to ensure your day is great. We had our own decorator, but they can decorate with many different items as part of a package. Capacity appears to be about 300 to 340 for receptions with all 4 rooms booked. We fit 150 very comfortably, 8 per table, in 3 of the rooms with the giant dance floor and a buffet/ cake table on the side. Highly recommend Five Points in Washington, Illinois for wedding reception.

Brian, Stephanie and all the staff at Five Points were wonderful!!! Everything went smoothly and it couldn't have been a better day!! They have an extensive list of caterers they work with, and can set up the reception room almost literally any way you want it! They worked seamlessly with I do events and the other businesses I used for decorating, cake/cupcakes and DJ. They were always very timely in responding to e-mails, questions etc. The event staff were all very professional and helpful and assisted in any way they could during the reception. I highly recommend using them for your next reception!

Brian and Stephanie were wonderful to work with. We were able to use the theater dressing rooms to get dressed the morning of the wedding. That really helped us out! Stephanie was there the night of the wedding and was available for any of my questions or concerns . I recommend 5 points for anyone that wants to have a wedding reception there!

Five Points was wonderful to work with. They were on top of things from beginning to end, reminding us when we needed to make selections and always willing to help and give good advise about the plethora of options they have. During our reception when our DJ had a malfunction with his equipment, Five Points went above and beyond to get our music up and running. Without them we would have had a silent reception. Brian and Stephanie are super accommodating and always asking if we needed anything or any help with anything. Both during our setup before the rehearsal and during our wedding day. If you don't have your wedding at Five Points, your missing out on great service, great value, and a great venue!
