White Pines Golf Club & Banquets

As a minimalist who loves both mid-century modern aesthetics and incorporation of the outdoors, White Pines was the perfect place in the west suburbs to hold our wedding reception.

From the moment my husband and I first arrived at White Pines for a tour 10 months before our wedding, we knew White Pines was where we wanted to have our reception. We loved the look of the high, wooden vaulted ceiling, tall windows, huge outdoor balcony for congregating, beautiful ponds, fountains and greenery — all qualities that were perfect for us as we did not want to have a standard, indoor only banquet hall reception.

Dori and Andrea were all extremely helpful during the entire planning process! They were quick to respond to calls and emails and were very helpful explaining costs for meals and the logistics of setup for the reception.

The day of our reception, Marlene was very accommodating, guaranteeing that both the setup of the reception and food service were flawless. When we walked into White Pines for the first time on our wedding day, everything looked even better than we imagined!

All evening long, guests told us how much they loved the look of the place and talked about how delicious the food was! The grapevine hanging lanterns available for rent through MDM Entertainment, along with the gold chiavari chairs and twinkle lights at the head table and on the patio, helped set the scene for our simple, natural and tropical reception look. All we added were some small potted tropical plants on the place card/memorial table and guest table, had mini monstera leaves in glass vases as our table centerpieces and popped our greenery bouquets into glass vases at the head table, and our decor look was complete!

For Chicagoland couples looking for a reception venue that has natural, simple beauty and is different from the regular hotel or banquet hall location, White Pines is the perfect choice! White Pines prices are very reasonable, the food is outstanding, the customer service is on point, and the team ensures your wedding vision is fulfilled. We have no regrets about selecting White Pines as our reception venue, and thank everyone involved for helping us have the most beautiful wedding.
