Ashley Sent on 11/03/2024Best 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...Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:
Thank you so much Ashley and Andrew for your review! We love getting to work so closely with our couples to ensure their dream wedding becomes a reality. Best wishes to you both! -

Sandy Sent on 05/27/2024Fabulous 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...Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:
Thank you for sharing these kind words! We had a wonderful time working with you and your family. Everything turned out so beautiful, especially with the touches of daffodil-yellow! We wish you and Tim a lifetime of love! -Emile-Margaret & Paramount's Meyer Ballroom :) -

Kristin Sent on 02/25/2024Our Wedding Dreams Come True
After attending amazing shows at the Paramount for years and being season subscribers, I was thrilled to learn they hosted weddings. The Paramount always puts on an amazing show and our wedding was no different! I was so impressed with all of the details they helped us bring together to craft the wedding of our dreams. It was a magical experience from beginning to end. They have a handful for preferred vendors you need to chose from for catering and entertainment, but honestly I found this made the vendor selection much less intimidating. The vendors are in a range of price points and our wedding coordinator at the Paramount walked us through that information. We met with the Paramount...Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:
Hi Kristin! Thank you for these kind words! Getting to work with you and Mandy on your theatre-themed wedding was so wonderful! From the start of the day with the live quartet during the ceremony, all the way to the sparkler exit, was so beautiful! We wish you and Mandy a lifetime of love! - Emile-Margaret -

Maria Sent on 07/24/2023Beautiful Venue for Couples on a Budget
We just had our wedding there this past weekend and it honestly went perfectly. Our guests complimented the views, tall windows, and outdoor balcony. I felt taken care of the day off, and it felt that way the entire planning process. I was able to visit multiple times, bring my own decor (although they offer some free), received quick responses, and got great suggestions on everything from decor to schedule. Sam is amazing and so on top of it all. The place was also very reasonable price wise.

We chose paramount after viewing a few other places across Chicago and nearby Suburbs. They won our business. The space is beautiful, the services and support offered is great and convenient especially if you’re planning yourself. We had a very memorable time and highly recommend this venue.Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:

Kayce Sent on 05/22/2023You gotta book now
Absolutely the best bang for your dollar without having to compromise on beauty of the venue! We looked at a lot of venues in the chicagoland area and nobody came close to what Paramount could offer. They made the whole process super easy-even for me who had no idea what I wanted.
The venue is gorgeous, the staff super communicative and accommodating. Our day of coordinator Emile-Margaret even came out with water bottles while we were taking photos at the venue before the reception. I’d highly recommend.Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:

Robin Sent on 01/06/2023Book The Paramount Theatre for your wedding now! You won't regret it!
If you're looking for a sign to book here, do it! The Paramount was so wonderful through the entire process of our wedding. Affordable, flexible, all of the right things built in to make the process easy while also allowing flexibility for your day. If you are lucky enough to get Sam Haywood as your consultant consider yourself lucky, even during her own maternity leave she was always on top of it and every little question I had was answered in such a helpful way. When we were helped out during her leave by other consultants they were JUST as wonderful and helpful. Truly, all our guests were gushing about how beautiful the venue was (we were in the...Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:

Monique Sent on 11/16/2022Wonderful!
Our wedding was this year in March. Due to Covid we had to postpone twice. The staff at Meyer Ballroom were awesome with accommodating us during these difficult times. When our day came, my husband and I didn't have to worry about a thing. The venue handled communicating with all of our vendors and made sure that everything was in place. Everything was beautiful. I have no complaints. The venue is beautiful and all our guests loved it. Our Coordinator Breanne was very pleasant and polite and always smiling. I would recommend this beautiful venue to everyone I know. Now my family friend Arnita Perdue is an event coordinator. Please reach out to her if you are looking for an elegant place off of the water to have your special day!fParamount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:

Briana Sent on 11/02/2022A Dream to Work With
Choosing to get married at the Meyer Ballroom was a no-brainer! The Atrium is the perfect location for a ceremony, and with the edison-bulbs and dangling lights, it made for beautiful pictures. The Meyer Ballroom overlooks the river and the Paramount Theatre, which makes for a stunning back drop during the reception. I also love that they let you choose from a list of caterers; we went with stations from Reuland and still get compliments on the food. The staff at the Meyer Ballroom is 10/10. They all made the process so smooth, from the months leading up through the day of, each person I worked with was a joy. I can't recommend them enough!Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:
We were honored to be part of your and Trent’s beautiful wedding… that you waited 783 days for! Loved your elegant yet simple greenery and the personal touches like your ceremony backdrop. Wishing you both many years of happiness! ~ Jennifer and the Paramount Events Team -

David Sent on 09/01/2022Beautiful Venue, Amazing Staff...Dream Come True!
We were married in May of 2022. Our ceremony took place in the beautifully remodeled Atrium, and our reception was in the next room over in the Meyer Ballroom. The venue created a picture-perfect space overlooking the Fox River in downtown Aurora, IL. Our wedding package gave us the option to use their gorgeous wooden arch for our ceremony and the option to use their beautiful lantern centerpieces for our reception and so much more! I was so thankful as it was one less thing we needed to decide on. Our package also included complimentary valet parking which was so convenient and appreciated by our guests.

I could not be happier with the Meyer Ballroom. As a COVID Bride, there was that extra level of stress in planning a wedding and the Meyer Ballroom and Briana helped make this the wedding of my dreams through it all. I could never thank them enough for all of their hard work. If you are looking for an Aurora, IL wedding venue.. look no further!Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:

Abbey Sent on 11/07/2019Our wedding at Paramount’s Meyer Ballroom was a dream
We just got married at Paramount’s Meyer Ballroom on October 26, 2019. Everything was so perfect and exactly what I wanted. They have multiple options for where you want your ceremony to be. We chose the staircase of the atrium and it looked so beautiful. They also provide a list of preferred vendors which helps with the craziness of choosing between places! Breanne was our day of coordinator and it was extremely helpful to have her around (and deliver champagne to the bridal suite every 5 minutes)! She made sure everything went smoothly from set up to take down. Overall, Paramount’s Meyer Ballroom is nothing less than amazing. We had so many compliments all night about the beautiful venue and friendly staff. I highly recommend having your wedding here! -

Mariah Sent on 06/13/2019Couldn't be more pleased. Great value, over-the-top service.
In the midst of a season full of stress, working with the Paramount Theater/Meyer Ballroom team was bliss, and I truly mean that. I'm so grateful that we chose our venue first, because the Meyer Ballroom team was such a help with the rest of our wedding planning, and they handled so many of the details for us. From the very first venue visit to the follow-up emails after our event, I knew I could trust this venue with my wedding vision, my guests, and my budget. Kind, honest, thorough, and prompt communication from all staff members. Expert help from professional event coordinators. Wonderfully thoughtful extra touches (ask about the favors they provide for each of your wedding guests!). And absolutely gorgeous surroundings. We had an absolute blast at our Meyer Ballroom wedding. -

Gabrielle Sent on 11/16/2018Couldn't be more perfect
When we were looking at wedding venues my heart ached to get married at the Meyer ballroom in the evening. We were not quite sure how we were gonna do it but we took the plunge! And I must say it was one of the greatest decisions we have made. The staff at the Paramount events made wedding planning a breeze and answered all my questions without any hesitation. They're amazing list of vendors were so helpful. The venue is so beautiful that we didn't feel like we needed to over decorate. Downtown Aurora gave us the slight feel of a Chicago wedding without all the craziness. We couldn't have picked a better place to say I do. We are so thankful for the amazing staff that held our hands throughout the process!

Once in a lifetime
Me and my fiancé (now wife) booked at this venue for our wedding. From choosing our date after our initial meeting to saying “I do” in front of the beautiful river view our experience was everything we could have asked for, and then some! Things we didn’t even know we wanted, we’re made available and help was there every step of the way! From regular check ins to make sure vendors and details were being planned for to recommendations when we weren’t sure where to turn, this staff nailed every single detail. Their preferred venders were amazing and the day of staff was there for everything we needed to make sure photos, and timelines met our expectations. So many...Paramount's Meyer Ballroom's reply:
Thank you for these kind words! Our team had a wonderful time getting to work with you both along the way! Your personal touches of celestial theme and specialized playbill made the day truly your own. We wish you and Emily a lifetime of love! --Emile-Margaret & Paramount's Meyer Ballroom :) -

Amazing To Work With!
The Team definitely did an amazing job throughout the whole wedding planning process! Their responses were so prompt. The venue itself was beautiful. The transitions throughout the day were seamless as well because of how the venue is.
And our Day of Coordinator, Emile-Margaret, she was literally perfect to work with. She actually showed us the venue, and sold us on it. And on the day of, SHE WAS ON POINT! We were so thankful to have her help. She also did an amazing job with connecting with all of our vendors.
Amazing Team with answering all of our questions. Just thankful to have worked with them and to have had such a perfect wedding day!
