The venue made our wedding!
From the second we walked into Gallery 1028, we knew it was the perfect venue for our wedding! It is such a cool space, rustic and industrial, with all the basics that you need, but also it is kind of a clean slate that you can decorate any way you want. We wanted to go with a warm, romantic, intimate feel, and decor from Studio AG and some help from the staff at Gallery/Calihan Catering helped us achieve just that. We worked a few contacts throughout the process, due to job changes, but all of them were helpful, informative and kind. Emily was our contact during wedding week, and she is wonderful! She offered to let us bring some of our own decor to their office the Monday before the wedding, which was so helpful during a crazy week. She helped my dad and I carry the decor inside, and then took care of bringing it over to Gallery later in the week so my family wouldn’t have to worry about it. Everyone was great, and I couldn’t imagine having our wedding anywhere else. All of our guests were in awe of the space and how beautiful it was. Thank you for everything!

Gallery 1028 is one of the most amazing and unique event spaces in Chicago. We knew right when we walked into Gallery 1028 that it was the perfect space for our wedding. We wanted a loft style space that was both romantic and intimate which best describes Gallery 1028. The original wood floors and exposed brick are absolutely beautiful while the windows make the space bright and welcoming. The staff is very accommodating and wonderful to work with. Kayla was extremely responsive to emails and very accommodating. We also received several compliments from our vendors on how friendly and responsive Kayla and the staff at Gallery 1028 were. Their partnership with Calihan Catering is superb. Calihan cater and Gallery 1028 work in sync together to make sure your wedding day is flawless, and all guest are happy. We had both our ceremony and reception at Gallery 1028. The staff did an outstanding job with flipping the ceremony space into a beautiful reception area. Our guest raved what an amazing and beautiful venue Gallery 1028 is. Over all experience was truly exceptional. Gallery 1028 and Calihan Catering did an outstanding job to make sure we had the wedding of our dreams.

Working with Gallery was one of the highlights of our whole experience. My now wife and I are from out of town and did most of our planning from a distance. We visited over a dozen venues and Gallery was hands down the best from flexibility to location to customer service. E-mails were answered within one day and they worked around our schedule. From tastings to the actual reception we loved every second. These guys are top notch, the food rocked and it hands down made the day what it was. Can thank them enough.
