Unique and Fun Alternative to a Traditional Venue

My sister had her wedding here in November 2017. They had both their ceremony and reception at the venue. The ceremony, held on the bocce court upstairs was absolutely gorgeous with the large windows and adding a drapery background. When people saw their wedding photos, they couldn't believe it was held at Pinstripes! The outdoor patio area with fire pit was a huge hit with guests. Would definitely recommend reserving the entire upstairs area and bowling lanes for extra privacy. Overall, guests had a blast and were talking about it for months after!!

We chose to have our ceremony and reception at Pinstripes and couldn't have been happier. Throughout the year long planning process, we had worked with three different coordinators, but each one picked up where the other left off without any interruption. Hailey ended up being our final day of coordinator and she was fantastic! She was professional and flawlessly helped wrangle the entire wedding party to keep things on schedule. We chose to have the cocktail hour in the private bowling alley upstairs, and all of our guests had so much fun. The wait staff during dinner was so attentive, our friends and family have been raving about the service for weeks after the wedding. I HIGHLY recommend adding the gelato bar onto your package, for many of my guests it was the highlight of the night. Everyone had a fabulous time and we are so happy we chose Pinstripes for our wedding!

Our wedding at Pinstripes Oak Brook was nothing short of amazing. Sarah and Molly were both there with us every step of the way, and they were very accommodating of last minute changes and additions. The staff was professional and always on top of things and was always willing to make sure that they were doing everything possible to make our night memorable. Our guests loved being able to play bocce and bowl throughout the night, and the pictures we got are original and fun. If I could, I would get married at Pinstripes all over again. (P.S.--Do yourselves a favor and add the gelato bar--it was totally worth it!)

We had a fabulous wedding at Pinstripes in April, and it’s very much thanks to Sarah Bessler and her team. At the beginning of our planning process, we actually met with and booked the venue with someone else, and we were so grateful when Sarah took over. She was extremely communicative and did everything she could to make the wedding day run as smoothly as possible. She made sure we had exactly the food and drinks we wanted, including special accommodations for several of our family members with food allergies, as well as bowling and bocce lanes for our guests to enjoy. She also arranged to let us in on Friday to set up the space ahead of time so we didn’t have to worry about asking someone to take care of that the day of the wedding. In terms of the venue itself, Pinstripes in Oakbrook is a beautiful place to have any sort of party! The ballroom is contemporary with lots of exposed beams and big windows. There’s also a space off the ballroom that’s enclosed in glass with several bocce lanes, and a full patio with a firepit. Our guests were able to enjoy all these areas, and no one ever felt like they were leaving the party if they left the ballroom, because the spaces blend seamlessly together. The food - served family style - is out of this world! Several of our guests, including two professional chefs, told us it was some of the best food they’d ever had at a reception. At the end of the night, we rented out the bowling lanes upstairs, and when we weren’t quite finished with our games, the manager comped an extra half hour of time so we didn’t have to cut the fun short. We had a wonderful time at Pinstripes. We would recommend it to anyone looking for a unique venue, and we can’t wait to celebrate our anniversaries there!

My son and his wife were married in a traditional Korean wedding ceremony in Korea in April and now we're coming to the states for an informal reception for his relatives. Pinstripes was the perfect venue which allowed all the guests to mingle among each other by playing bocce ball, bowling and bags. We were able to transform our casual dining area into a semi formal setting which was complemented by many because of the feeling of the outdoor atmosphere. Our venue planner Sarah worked well with us which was hard at times because of the bride and groom living in Korea. She listened well to the look we we trying to achieve and offered many ideas and suggestions. On the day of the event Tommy and Hector were very attentive to all the guests needs and addressed every concern we brought to them. The wait staff displayed exceptional service and was complimented by many of the guests. We would definitely use Pinstripes as our venue again!

Absolutely loved our venue. All of our guests said it was the best wedding they had ever been too. People who do not enjoy dancing didn't feel obligated to dance since there was bowling, bocce ball, and a fire pit. The food was absolutely delicious. Betty was pleasure to work with throughout the whole process and Jason was on top of everything the day of the ceremony and reception!

Pinstripes was probably the best part of our wedding day. We worked with Betty and she was incredibly sweet and did an amazing job as our coordinator. We heard rave reviews from our guests the entire reception about the food, dessert (the cheesecake is phenomenal!!!), the activities, just everything. Our guests even thought the staff dressed in purple shirts to match our color scheme! So many of them have told us that it was the best or one of the best wedding receptions they have ever been to and we absolutely agree! Scott was the head server and was super attentive to us. He checked on us consistently and made sure we had fresh entrees after we visited each of the guest tables and also boxed up the leftovers for us to take home. At the end of the night, I discovered that one of my earrings was missing and Scott had the servers looking for it right away and brought it over to me within minutes. I was so thankful as it was one of my mother's pearls. We could not have been happier with our choice of Pinstripes as our venue!!

Angie,
You are wonderful. We had the best wedding at Pinstripes. The food was amazing, the servers were great. Everyone loved the huge dance floor. The bartenders were so fast and nice, we kept getting compliments all night. Loved the boccie ball and bowling. It was so fun for pictures. We loved our officiant from Walton Weddings. Jeannie was great. Thanks also for the help with learning about our different florists in the area. It worked out great. We loved our ceremony it was so cool having it outside. The chairs were amazing, everyone commented on how beautiful the area was. We still get compliments on how great the food was! It was a blast. You all were fantastic!

Many of our guests told us that ours was the best wedding they had ever been to and we know it was in large part because of Pinstripes! Having a cocktail hour that included great food, bowling, and bocce allowed our guests, who were from many different backgrounds and 2 cultures, come together in a non-intimidating way and become family. We had to drag them into the dinner, they were having so much fun! The food was excellent and the wine and beer selection was ample.
We were planning our wedding from afar (NY) so Pinstripes was the perfect fit for us because it included a site for the ceremony, reception, and fun. The biggest bonus, as a bride, was the in-house wedding coordinator. We worked with Kate and she made the whole experience seamless. She made sure we had all the details covered, connected with our other vendors, and made sure everything ran on time and smoothly on the big day itself. Her staff even ran out to do last minute errands when some of our supplies had shipped broken!
I would highly recommend Pinstripes for anyone who wants a fun, unique venue that is low maintenance, high quality and affordable.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
