Mooreland went through a management change during our planning, however the new manager was very responsive and knew plans we had discussed previously. The staff the night of were a dream to work with and ensured our ceremony and reception were elegant, on time, and as stress-free as a wedding night can be for a bride and groom! I would highly recommend this venue if you are hoping for a wedding night filled with professionalism and joy.

We had our ceremony and reception here and we got so many compliments on our venue! Our wedding coordinator was basically a wedding planner for us and made everything so easy. The rose garden during the fall is magical.

We could not have dreamed up a better location for our wedding than Mooreland!! I think my (now) husband and I both knew that about halfway through our first tour, and it was just further confirmed with each additional tour we went on because no other venue could measure up. (And we even looked at some local favorites here in the Chicago.) In the end ... it was always Mooreland.

We booked about a year and half out from our wedding date, so we had a lot of time to ask (read: overly pester) with our questions, but they were always there with a quick response. Even when they picked up a new venue coordinator in the form of Michelle, we never felt put off or that the transition went any less than smoothly. (Which is not always the case in venue turnovers.) I actually work as a wedding planner and have been in the industry for 8+ years, so to say I had high expectations for our wedding would be the understatement of the year. Again, Mooreland delivered in every way.

Our guests were just as in love with the mansion & grounds as we were; it made me so happy to hear how beautiful they thought it was throughout our day. The service? Above and beyond. Everyone we ever interacted with a Mooreland was just so accommodating. Even *after* the wedding day, Michelle offered to send an item we'd left back with a friend who was traveling to Chicago. Like, what?!! And talk about convenient! It's incredibly rare to have both a Bride & Groom Suite (basically an entire floor!) to get ready, a beautiful rose garden for your ceremony just steps away from cocktail hour, AND a sun room + green space for pre- or post-ceremony photos to be done right on-site.

I will note that we were a little nervous about about the food because we hadn't gotten to taste the exact items we picked out, but Normandy Catering at Mooreland really came through! We received many compliments from our guests, and my meal was personally one of the best I've ever had at a wedding.

I can tell you *very* confidently that you will be hard-pressed to find the atmosphere, flexibility and value that Mooreland has wrapped up all in one stunning venue package.
