Fabulous venue in every way!

We highly recommend the Paramount's Meyer Ballroom for any event! We held our wedding there in April 2024. The venue is absolutely immaculate and offers a beautiful setting for a wedding. The Fox River makes a lovely backdrop and the lights of the Paramount's marquee add a sparkly accent. But the service that the staff provided is absolutely the star of the show. At every step of the process they were responsive, friendly, helpful and accommodating to our special requests. The price is right, too - a very affordable venue with lots of complimentary add-ons, such as the centerpieces, which saved us money. And the icing on the cake is the free theater ticket for each guest which we used as the wedding favor. The complimentary valet service made it easy for our guests to attend.

Also, because there is a smoking patio outside the ballroom, we were able to offer our guests a Cigar Bar, which was a unique touch.

We chose a round head table for a smaller wedding party because we wanted to be able to talk to everyone, and it worked great!

5 stars for sure, we hope everyone considers this venue!!

Best decision!

We could not have picked a more perfect place for us to get married! Jennifer was very responsive from the early stages of messaging on The Knot. We set up a venue tour and the rest was history. We knew the Paramount Meyer Ballroom was our choice mid tour and put a date on hold before we walked out the door! We left with such a good feeling in our hearts. They have so many great options that are included in the price (amazing bar package, beautiful venue space, 2 table cloth options, comfortable chairs, beautiful centerpieces, a view that’s hard to beat and so much more) and then many upgrades that are more than fairly priced! We worked closely with Emile-Margaret throughout the entire process (but everyone we worked with was phenomenal!) and we asked if she could be our day of coordinator for our special day (spoil alert, she said yes 🤗). Emile-Margaret was available for every question we had and was very thorough during the entire planning process. She worked around our scheduling conflicts for our 3/6/9 month consultations and kept us on track with our decisions! I loved that the Meyer Ballroom offered venue viewings for all couples that have already signed with them. This really helped with making our vision come to life and testing out different decor options without being rushed and making rash decisions. It was the most magical day and that’s all thanks to Emile-Margaret and the entire staff at the Paramount Meyer Ballroom. If you’re looking for a venue that has your best interest at heart and really cares for you as a couple then the Paramount Meyer ballroom is the place for you! Thank you Emile-Margaret and the Paramount Meyer Ballroom for everything! Truly a dream come true.
