Hyatt Centric Chicago Magnificent Mile Reviews

I used the Hyatt Centric Mag Mile for my wedding block Labor Day weekend 2021. I cannot explain how amazing the team was! First, Zach was the best. He was so quick to respond and my Mom/Mother-in-Law actually ENJOYED talking with him (Who say's that about wedding vendors?!). He made everything seamless and easy, including a wedding date change because of COVID. His team, Alyssa and Elizabeth were a tremendous help in the year leading up to the wedding. With having ~100 wedding guests staying at this hotel, they received a lot of calls and were patient with everyone. They also had a great deal with having the Groom and Bride have a suite with an amazing price (and SURPRISE upgrade to the king suite when we arrived!). The premises are recently updated and the location is near everything downtown. Debbie and her team at the front office made the entire weekend an ease with check-ins, welcome bag deliveries, coach bus/limo parking and adding rooms to the wedding block last minute. I cannot wait to stay here again. Thank you for making my wedding weekend even better than I thought it would be!

You won't go to any other venue once you meet Claire Lind. My wedding (250+ guests) was on 7/29/2017, and there is no one better than Claire Lind to guide you. Their prices are very competitive, but our deciding factor in choosing a Venue was Claire. From the first meeting, she sat down with us, and talked to us about our vision for our wedding, even before we knew what we wanted. Other coordinators gave us a tour, a price list, and a nice trinket. Claire gave us a VISION about our wedding based on our fledgling ideas, and she brought it to life. You can't put a price on her expertise and the execution her team brought to the table.

And I haven't even mentioned the food! The meal they crafted was personalized and delicious. It really reflected who we are as a couple. It's not just "Steak" or "Salmon," it is a dining experience. you know how they say that you don't eat at your own wedding? We ate. and I ate from my wife's plate when she changed dresses. it was THAT good. Also, the mixologist came up with drinks that captured our individual tastes perfectly after just sitting with us and getting to know us. And the dessert table? definitely a must have and a huge hit.

The biggest hiccup for the wedding was when an outside vendor delivered items to another Hyatt in Chicago. did we know about it? No, because Claire and her team took care of it.

I know I talked about Claire a lot in this review, but I can not stress how amazing she is. If you have your own ideas, she brings them to life. If you're unsure about things, she works with you and gives ideas to help you along the way.

When you look around for venues and talk to the other coordinators, ask yourself "Is this person someone I will trust with the most important day of our lives?" For us, it was Claire. If you go with her, you will never regret it.

Claire, if you ever read this, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

When we decided we wanted to do a hotel venue for our wedding, we looked high and low for a classy (okay, maybe just NOT bright red carpeting) ballroom that was not ridiculously overpriced. When we saw the Hyatt Centric Mag Mile's recently renovated ballroom, we knew we had to have it there. The ballroom is beyond gorgeous and modern, the food is actually DELICIOUS and not "typical wedding food" (also perk is all beer served was local craft beer!) , but also the event managers, Claire and Vicki were incredibly helpful throughout the entire planning process, answering emails promptly and making sure we had the wedding of our dreams. Our wedding day went off without a hitch (and working in PR, I know that's never true, but really if anything was askew we or our guests didn't know about it). Claire and Vicki were always two steps ahead of us making sure everything ran smoothly - Vicki even brought in her own steamer to make sure my traveling bridesmaids didn't walk down the aisle in wrinkly dresses.

I would suggest the Hyatt Centric Mag Mile to anyone i know getting married in downtown Chicago.

Our wedding was only 9 days ago (October 22, 2016) and I'm already having withdrawals. Alyssa was AMAZING and so professional, courteous, and accessible. My situation was unique in that our wedding was in Chicago (my hometown) but my husband and I live in Los Angeles. Alyssa was more than accommodating in making sure to schedule face time meetings for me to see the venue, scheduling appointments around me flying into town and answering phone calls and emails like the superstar she is. She worked with us diligently to make sure everything was exactly the way we wanted it. The food was impeccable, the bridal suite (presidential room) was breathtaking and the cocktails and late night taco bar had our guests raving!! I'm so sad that the day is over after nearly 15 months of planning, but the memories will last us a lifetime. I couldn't be a happier bride!

We had our dream wedding at the Hyatt Magnificent Mile! Their personnel and staff was nothing short of amazing. Nell Oz, our main point of contact, was attentive and so considerate. She suggested unbelievable vendors who made our dreams come true. We enjoyed EVERYTHING about our wedding day and are happy we chose the Hyatt Mag Mile.
