A Party (Wedding) to Remember!

From the beginning of the planning process, the Holiday Inn team was so responsive and helpful. The wedding package is classy, elegant and affordable! It was the most perfect day and the venue was just beautiful! The detail in the decor did not go unnoticed. We received several compliments from our guests how beautiful the venue was set-up/decorated and how delicious the food was. In addition to the decor and food, we received even more comments from our guests just raving about the service! The bartenders/servers were so friendly and the drinks were strong! ;) We can’t thank the Holiday Inn enough for making our wedding the best day of our lives! It was definitely a night Ricky and I will never forget thanks to the Holiday Inn team!

September wedding

Great experience here. The packages they offer are reasonably priced compared to a lot of other places. The ceremony and reception were beautiful. Lydia and the rest of the team did a wonderful job accommodating our needs and everything went very smoothly. I'd recommend to anybody!

Welcome/ rehearsal party

We had a wonderful and amazing reception. We used the hotel for all the of-state guests and also for the welcome/rehearsal party. I really recommend the hotel and the venues for any event related to your wedding or celebration. Everyone was very helpful and accommodated for our needs.

I had an easy-going wedding planning because this venue was all inclusive with a day of coordinator

Having my wedding at the holiday inn was the best decision I made, they were very easy to work with and all I had to worry about was my photographer/videographer & DJ. All the staff the day of the wedding was so respectful and attentive.

Wonderful Experience

Our experience with the Holiday Inn was better than we expected. We would meet with and send questions to Eddie and she was so so incredibly professional and courteous to all family members. Mark was there the whole time and late into the night- who was also so helpful and flexible. The staff at dinner, breakfast and bartenders were also so kind and joyful! Thank you all for the perfect time.

My daughter's wedding was planned in a short period of time; Megan was outstanding with helping us accommodate our guests and the rest of the staff was wonderful! We didn't have anything to worry about when it came to planning the venue, they took care of everything. I highly recommend the Holiday Inn for any of your upcoming celebrations!

The staff at Holiday Inn & Suites Chicago NW Elgin did an outstanding job for our wedding reception on December 30, 2017. This included preparations before the reception and during the event. Crystal Langley did a great job coordinating with us on details as well as during the reception. Mark Cihlar was also a fantastic resource with planning and preparation as well as during the reception. In addition, Manager Eric Overlin provided excellent service during the event as did all the hotel staff including wait staff, bartender, etc. We were very impressed by the attention to detail and the attentiveness of the hotel staff before and during our reception. Highly recommended them!
