Elysa and her staff made our wedding day beyond magical!!! It could not have gone better!! They were so professional, courteous, helpful, and sweet I can't speak of them highly enough!!! 5 stars is no where near high enough of a rating!! The food was amazing and the planning process was made so easy! They made amazing suggestions and didn't pressure us to choose more expensive options. Elysa has so many creative ideas. We would bring her ideas and she would take those ideas, run with them, and make them 1000 times better!!
Ruffled Feathers Golf Club's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words, Brian S.! We are so glad that you had a magical wedding day and that our staff was able to make it so special. We are delighted that you enjoyed the food and the planning process. We appreciate your 5 star rating and are so glad that you found our ideas helpful and creative.

Best night of our lives!
My husband and I got married at Ruffled Feathers in September of 2023. We honestly didn't have any idea what we were doing, but luckily we had Elysa to guide us, making our wedding a very special day. She was extremely responsive, accommodating, and kind. She helped keep the stress of wedding planning to a minimum. All of the food was made in house, and it turned out great! On top of that, the facility including the golf course is beautiful. We would recommend getting married here.
Ruffled Feathers Golf Club's reply:
Hi Kayla, thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We're thrilled to hear that Elysa made your wedding day special and stress-free. We're also glad you enjoyed the delicious food and the beautiful facility. We truly appreciate your recommendation.

Highly Satisfied with Service, Quality of Food and Accomodating Staff
After visiting many different venues we decided to have my daughter's wedding shower at Ruffled Feathers last summer. We couldn't have been more pleased with the entire event. It was a tremendous value for the delicious food, wonderful service and beautiful atmosphere. When it came time for the baby shower Ruffled Feathers was our first choice. Kathy was very understanding and accommodating to our specific needs during the Covid 19 pandemic. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Ruffled Feathers to a friend and will happily host my next event at this venue.

Our Winter Wedding
Our winter wedding was absolutely perfect! Kathy and Taylor made sure every detail was taken care of and followed through on each request we made! They got a valet service set up for our guests, facilitated an amazing transition from ceremony to reception, and had a fantastic staff! We had the best day!

Amazing Service!
I found Ruffled Feathers through various search engines and websites. My Husband and I were on a tighter budget but we wanted elegance, a good location, and a trusted venue. After looking at a variety of venues from halls with caterers to elaborate mansions, we went with Ruffled Feathers based on their package pricing and the very personalized attention we received. Kathy is so wonderful and was extremely helpful when we had to make a wedding date change due to a family medical issue. She worked with us on not only our costs, but what would be the best option to give us the most for our money.
We did start with a wedding coordinator that left, but we worked with Brianna for the last few months prior. She is really willing to go above and beyond to help make the day perfect. I appreciated that I could drop my centerpieces and decor off and they put them out. I really did not have to worry about much with respect to them. The package included our wedding cake through Orland Park Bakery and it was beautifully decorated to our specifications.
The food and service from our ceremony through the end of our reception was impeccable. Both Brianna and Kathy communicated and were responsive to our inquiries. I would highly recommend this venue for the beautiful backdrop, the value for what you receive, the quality of the food, and the invaluable service received.

We are so happy we chose Ruffled Feathers for our reception venue! The room is beautiful, and an added bonus is that there is only one ballroom - so only one wedding at a time. The food was delicious, we got so many compliments on it! Toby was very responsive and helpful through our planning process; I probably emailed him with thousands of random questions leading up to the day. The service on the day of was fantastic, we had people constantly checking up on us to make sure we didn't need anything. Our guests had an amazing time. Thank you Ruffled Feathers!!

Absolutely Amazing in all aspects!
Ruffled Feathers was absolutely amazing! Kathy and Brianna were extremely accommodating to all of our wedding needs and wants & made our venue beautiful with all of our decorations. The venue alone is so modern and gives such a unique twist to the everyday banquet hall from the terrace room which has a wall of windows with gorgeous views, geometric lights, "Chicago" wall, large bridal suite, "stone" bar, gazebo, balconies, the banquet hall covered in windows which brings so much light in, and much much more! It's also a one wedding venue which made it all the more fun for guests to roam! From appetizers through the "4th Meal" the staff put us first. So many of our guests could not stop talking about how full they were but also how they wanted to keep eating because the food was "absolutely delicious." On top of all this greatness we were told by guests how nice and friendly the staff and servers were to them :) The staff was absolutely amazing. They all made sure to put us (the bride and groom) first! Brianna helped every step of the way from us entering the venue to our departure!
Every time he or I were at the bar a drink was already being made for us without hesitation. For last call the bartenders came up to us and handed us a drink. The staff was absolutely flawless. The entire staff knew how crazy weddings can get and how engulfed the bride and groom become with guests and the entire night that they really took care of us and we cannot thank Ruffled Feathers and the ENTIRE staff for making our night so perfect for not only us but for making our guests rant and rave about how awesome the staff and venue is.
Thank you so so much :)

Amazing Venue
Ruffled Feathers exceeded my expectations when having my wedding there on 10/19/18. Lexi was amazing and made everything go smoothly. After checking out other venues, Ruffled Feathers' price was very reasonable compared to what you were given at other places for the same price. I cannot like this venue enough. I was concerned about the size of room because I had a large wedding 260 people but everything went perfectly and my guests cannot stop raving to me about how amazing of a time they had; how good the food was; and how beautiful the venue was. If you choose to have your wedding here you will not be disappointed and ask that Lexi be your planner because she goes over and beyond to make things perfect for you!!

My husband and I had our wedding reception at Ruffled Feathers in July and we are so happy with our decision! Jaclyn was extremely accommodating, flexible, and fantastic to work with. Before choosing Ruffled Feathers, we went to numerous venues and found Ruffled Feathers was the best value for the package offered. We loved how the ballroom looked, the food was delicious, and the entire staff we encountered was awesome!

Ruffled Feathers is absolutely amazing! We received SO many compliments from our wedding guests and our vendors on how fabulous the service, food, and drinks were. Jaclyn made everything so easy. She made sure that my wedding day was set-up perfectly and continuously checked in throughout the night to ensure that we were taken care of. I honestly can't say enough good things about Ruffled Feathers and the people that work there. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day and Ruffled Feathers was a huge factor in that.

Ruffled Feathers was the perfect venue for my daughter's July reception. From beginning to end, it was fantastic! So many of our guests went out of their way to tell me this was one of the best weddings they had ever attended and the reception was certainly a large part of that. Since we had Ruffled Feathers all to ourselves (225 guests) we were able to take advantage of all the different rooms and had such beautiful backdrops for our photos. This really is such a treat as many other venues offer you only one space. The cocktail reception was lovely and the banquet hall was set up beautifully for dinner. A friend of mine, whose husband works for Levy Restaurants, said the food was great, and aside from the fact that the soup was served in bowls without saucers, I have not a single negative thing to say about the dinner. Absolutely wonderful!
Since we were a large group that liked to dance, we asked the staff to remove one of the head tables which they did promptly. It was a fear of mine that we would not have enough space on the dance floor, but it turned out being just perfect! I do wish I had had the DJ announce the dessert table, since I think some of the guests might have missed the amazing pastries. But fortunately for us (and my dad who has a huge sweet tooth) we were allowed to take the sweets home and enjoyed them while entertaining over the next couple of days. The desserts were simply outstanding! Truly. If you're wondering whether to go with the package that includes the desserts, I would definitely say yes! For us, it was a last minute addition and I'm so glad we did it.
Bottom line: the evening flowed seamlessly as every detail was taken care of with great care and attention. Cathy and Jaclyn were absolutely lovely to work with and planning the reception with them was fun. I would definitely recommend this venue 100% and would love to use it again for another one of my daughter's weddings.

Our experience at Ruffled Feathers was amazing! Jaclyn took care of us so well. She even set up all the decorations and centerpiece flowers for us. Our guests could not stop talking about how incredible the food was and how gorgeous the venue was. I would definitely recommend Ruffled Feathers to anyone who wants an unforgettable wedding experience without all the work that usually goes into it. Ruffled Feathers has it all!

There are so many wonderful things to say about Ruffled Feathers, I truly don't know where to start. Our first meeting was with Kathy, and she was very nice and very thorough! She helped us with pricing and scheduling so we could get the best date available. Jaclyn was SO helpful! I sent MANY emails and had a lot of questions... often; and a lot of requests to help make our big day perfect. Let me tell you, Jaclyn is a champion at what she does. I wish I knew how perfect she would make everything, I wouldn't have stressed out so much before hand. So to all brides wondering if Ruffled Feathers is right for them, YES, yes it is! It was BEAUTIFUL, the chandeliers were gorgeous in the pictures. The grounds were spectacularly taken care of & look like a magical place in our pictures. The food was VERY good! Not one complaint from anyone! I am beyond thrilled with how wonderful everything turned out. My expectations were met and then some! I will forever recommend Ruffled Feather to others for any event.

Our wedding was on April 20, 2018 and we are so happy that we chose Ruffled Feathers for our venue. For the most part, we worked with Jaclyn and she is so nice and accommodated us for all of the requests that we asked. Kathy is also great to work with. Everything from our ceremony, to cocktail hour and reception were fantastic! Jaclyn made sure that everything was set up as we requested, all of the staff was very kind and they were wonderful with everyone's dietary restrictions (and there were quite a few) helping us figure out what everyone was able to eat. Responses to emails were very quick, which I appreciated greatly. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful on the inside and outside. We got some great pictures outside! I highly recommend Ruffled Feathers to anyone planning an event!

We recently had our daughter's wedding dinner party at Ruffled Feathers. The staff was wonderful to work with. Kathy was kind and took extra steps to make sure everything was perfect for my daughter and her husband. The outside and inside was decorated beautifully. The food was unbelievable. 6 days later, people are still raving about how good the food was, especially the soup. (Not your typical wedding food.) Everything was elegant and the staff made sure everything ran smoothly. I would highly recommend any party here - very easy to work with, very accommodating, great bartenders, servers and elegant atmosphere. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable evening.

Dear Kathy and Colleen,
My husband and I want to express our sincere thanks to both of you for the work you did for our daughter’s wonderful wedding reception on September 16th. Every detail was in place and executed as planned.
The ballroom was breathtakingly beautiful! It truly took my breath away when we first arrived and saw the room decorated. The sunlight lit up the room….and it was stunning! The tables were gorgeous with the Chivari chairs and gold chargers!
Holding the cocktail hour in the bar & grill was perfect….and our guests were able to enjoy their appetizers and drinks outside on the deck overlooking the golf course on a beautiful evening.
Beginning with cocktails and appetizers and moving on to the dinner, the wedding cake, the sweet table and the late night pizza….all of it was FANTASTIC! The food was delicious. We continue to receive compliments from our guests. And your servers were terrific.
Colleen – I appreciate all that you did to manage the numerous details for our reception. Thank you for your prompt replies to my many questions and e-mails the past year. A huge thank you for staying on top of everything to insure that we had a fabulous evening which went smoothly! Your staff did a terrific job...and our party was a success!
Great job to everyone involved with our wedding reception at Ruffled Feathers!
With heartfelt thanks,
Joanne and Bill K.

We recently got married here on 5.28.17. We fell in love with the venue as soon as we walked in. Kathy was our first point of contact. She was very friendly and had so many ideas/pointers for us that we felt very comfortable there. Their package had so many details already included that it made our 5 months of planning super easy. Colleen then became our second contact to set up the tasting and answer any little question as the planning went on. She was very prompt and professional throughout the process. They were super accommodating with everything and made it very easy. On the actual day; Daniel and Julie were amazing!! We had a little hiccup but they pulled through and all the staff helped us out avoid a small disaster :). Everyone was asked multiple times if they needed anything, which helped our grandparents continue drinking since they didn't have to get up from their table. The day flew by, but if I had to do it over, I would not hesitate to do everything the same way. If you are looking for a quick engagement without having to worry too much about certain details; definitely give RFCC a try!!!

A magical and outstanding evening for my daughter's Quinceanera celebration. Kathy Pauley is attentive, and made many helpful suggestions and recommendations that made planning the event smooth and flawless. Many thanks to Colleen, Daniel and Sean for their attention to detail, and their professional manner. This event had many moving parts, and the Ruffled Feather's staff were exceptionally helpful and conscientious in creating a memorable evening. The ballroom was beautiful, the food was excellent and the service was ideal. My guests are still complimenting the beautiful setting.

My husband and I visited a few venues before we went to Ruffled Feathers, and once we walked in, I had a feeling we had found the place. We met with Kathy Pauley and knew after our first conversation that we would be well taken care of and have a wonderful wedding. Boy, were we right! Kathy was wonderful to work with; very flexible, very easy to get in touch with, and she truly cares about making sure your wedding is the best day ever. When we arrived for the reception, the room and decorations were setup exactly like we wanted, and they even added their own touches to our decor that added to the overall effect. The staff was professional and provided great service all night long. The food was AMAZING! We had several guests tell us it was the best meal they ever had at a wedding. It was an incredible night, and I highly recommend Ruffled Feathers!

One of my daughter's requests was that her bridal shower be brunch. After looking at several other venues, I am glad to say we chose Ruffled Feathers. They had the best variety of food on their brunch menu and the mimosa bar was something I did not find at other venues. From beginning to end Kathy and her staff were great. I didn't even get to meet Kathy until a week before our event, but she was always quick to respond to emails and voice mails.
At the beginning of the shower, the shift managers met with us and were very accommodating when we had a couple last minute requests. The food was hot and the staff kept everything filled as long as people were still eating. The chefs were great at preparing the made to order omelette station, and the staff kept the mimosa bar flowing which all the guests loved.
Thank you Ruffled Feathers for a great shower!

I just had my wedding held here Aug 20, 2016! We dont even know how to put into words what a memorable night Kathy Pauley made for us. She truly went above and beyond and made the night exceptional and flawless! We will never doubt her, 100% trusted. Daniel was great always checking in on us ALL night to make sure all is going well, all the servers were so sweet and had a smile on their faces ALL night.. perfect!! Everything looked so beautiful and all our guests still can't stop talking about it! We were so busy we didnt even get a chance to eat some of the yummy appitizers lol but again people couldnt stop talking about Ruffled appetizers/dinner and the polish house hahaha... and of course they were all so impressed with the tray of shots all night... one word we and many people described our big day was PERFECT!! Thank you again, we truly appreciate you working with us and making our wedding the BEST day EVER!!!!
