  The wedding of our dreams!

  I could not have asked for a better wedding at The IBT Pavilion! First off, the venue itself, even without a single decoration added, is absolutely GORGEOUS! The natural light that pours into the venue is one of the biggest reasons I chose this venue. Secondly, the staff are so helpful and kind! I am a perfectionist and with that, I ask many questions and triple-check details constantly. Danielle and Zoie were always prompt with responding to my emails or phone calls and always assured me that my questions/concerns were valid. If I ever posed a question or idea that they weren't sure about, they made note of it and formulated a plan to figure it out right away. They even helped arrange a late-night snack for my guests from my favorite pizza place! The guests LOVED it! Aside from the late-night pizza, the dinner that was served at the venue was AMAZING! The dinner choices were unique, flavorful, and so delicious! My guests could not stop talking about the food even weeks after the wedding (the most popular being the Pork Tenderloin)! All in all, our wedding at the IBT Pavilion was the wedding I had always dreamed of, and more! Our expectations were exceeded and we wish we could relive that day all over again!

  Our Wedding

  We had the absolute best day ever! Zoie and Danielle were both EXTREMELY responsive and supportive throughout the year leading up to our big day. They did everything in their power to customize the venue space to exactly what we wanted and it was even more beautiful than we imagined. If we could relive this day, we would hands down, 110% choose this as our perfect venue again.

  Dream venue

  This space was everything we could have asked for and more! It spoke for itself and didn’t need any extra decor if we didn’t want to! Danielle and Zoie were amazing event coordinators who were very communicative and pleasant throughout the whole process. Not to mention the food was outstanding according to all of our guests.

  Beautiful day ran by amazing people

  Danielle and Zoie were incredible at making sure our day was absolutely perfect. There was not a thing we had to worry about the day of and the months leading up. The venue itself it’s of course just as gorgeous as the pictures

  Amazing day

  First and foremost, Zoie and Danielle were amazing to plan and coordinate with. Super responsive and helpful throughout the whole process. The venue itself is stunning. The indoor/outdoor concept is something I really wanted and something people appreciated if they didn’t want to hear the loud music and enjoy the weather outside. The natural light in the venue also just makes everything so beautiful. The FOOD was a hit! The guests were raving about the food after the wedding. I feel like that’s hard to come by for a wedding so that alone is a 10/10. We would relive this day over and over again it was so smooth and perfect and I thank Zoie and Danielle from IL B&T for that!!

  Amazing & flexible

  I was beyond pleased with everyone that we worked with through the Pavilion! We had to postpone our wedding due to COVID and they were more than willing to work with us and be flexible. I would recommend this venue to anyone! It was beautiful and perfect.

  Best Venue

  Great venue that is absolutely beautiful and affordable! Staff there were very accommodating and answered every one of my questions! One of our guests was running late to our reception and the staff kept her food in the back to keep warm until she got there! AMAZING service! The golf course is stunning for pictures and the food was fantastic! A couple months later and people are still talking about our food! I truly could not have asked for a better place To have a once in a lifetime day! Thank you Rockford Bank and Trust for giving us the perfect day!

  Beautiful facility, Taneel made everything flow effortlessly and spent many hours with us prior to our event ensuring everything would be perfect.

  We received numerous compliments from our guests on how great the food was. Our vendors also made this venue come alive for our perfect day. We will hold these memories close forever! Thank you Illinois bank and trust pavilion.

  Beautiful, Elegant - Fantastic!

  We have nothing but wonderful things to say about The Illinois Bank & Trust Pavilion. The team, the venue, the food - all AMAZING.
  
  The venue itself is absolutely beautiful but what truly makes this a top tier venue is the team. Johnna, the Chef, the set up crew, bartenders, etc....fantastic. We decided to change dates due to the pandemic and they were not only understanding but they were helpful and incredibly responsive from start to finish in the planning process. We intended on an outdoor ceremony for our September wedding. However, an hour prior it became very windy with rain expected as I was planned to walk down the aisle. Johnna met with me and asked what I wanted to do and calmly ensured her team would make anything happen we wanted - we ended up switching to an indoor ceremony and the team switched the room over SO quick and created the most beautiful, intimate ceremony experience. The room at night with candles and the lighting is beautiful. It was beyond perfect. Would not have wanted it any other way. During cocktail hour, they flipped the room back in no time. They truly are rock stars!! Lastly, the food - amazing. Our guests are still raving about the food they had at our wedding. Every single item we tasted was delicious and beautifully plated.
  
  We absolutely loved having our wedding at IBT and have heard nothing but fantastic reviews from our guests experiences as well.

  Great venue

  Cortney has been very helpful with booking the venue, flexible with my food allergies, and very personable. I'm excited for my wedding there in May.
