Lauren P. Sent on 07/11/2023Beautiful & Unique Venue
Love the look of this venue, its unique and industrial. We had our wedding here in May of 2023 and it was stunning. Our guests loved the unique look and it was able to accommodate our large families with ease. The outdoor space was beautiful and made for great photographs! The bridal sweet is also HUGE and is the perfect space for getting ready the morning of the wedding!
The Haight's reply:
Thank you so much for all your kind words! We loved working with you and we are so thrilled you loved the venue! Congratulations! -

Jessi R. Sent on 06/03/2023Melissa coordinated the best day of our lives!
When my husband and I were going through the planning process of finding a venue I had my heart set on a different location and the Haight was our last venue tour. Boy am I glad we made the trip that day because we both left falling in love with the venue and the staff!
They were always timely in responses and were so helpful with the whole planning process. We chose all of our vendors off their preferred vendor list and weren’t upset with any choices. When it came to the big day Melissa was our day of coordinator (which comes with booking the venue and is an amazing amenity!)
Melissa knocked it out of the park for us. She was easy to communicate with and made it so neither of us had to worry about a think the day of. The staff is so organized it truly made for the most perfect day and best day of our lives. We couldn’t be anymore grateful for the Haight and we are so happy we chose this absolutely breathtakingly beautiful venue to be the home to our wedding day.
Thank you guys again!
With all of our love and gratitude! The AwaltsThe Haight's reply:
Jessi, thank you so much for taking the time to write such a kind and thoughtful review! Your words truly made our day and we couldn't be happier to hear that you had a great experience with us and Melissa. It was an honor to be a part of your special day! Thank you again and congratulations! -

From the minute we stepped foot into the Haight, my husband and I knew we wanted to get married there. It was built in the late 1800s (same time period as our apartment) and it immediately felt warm and homey. The space is full of vintage beauty with hard wood floors and exposed brick throughout the venue. It required minimal decoration. Our family and friends raved about how beautiful the space was. Additionally the staff at the Haight was so supportive and responsive throughout our engagement. They gave us a folder of recommended vendors which helped us book our dream team without a wedding planner. On the day of my wedding, I had nothing to worry about because our event coordinator Lauren took care of everything. When we had issues with hotel transportation, Lauren handled it discretely and I hardly knew it was an issue. We felt taken care of and we were able to focus on enjoying our wedding day. I am eternally grateful for Lauren and the entire Haight staff for creating the wedding of our dreams.The Haight's reply:
Kristin, we absolutely loved working with you from your tour to your beautiful wedding day! Thank you so much for sharing this review. We wish you all the love and happiness in your future together! -

Fantastic from start to finish
The Haight is such an outstanding, beautiful wedding venue. Warm, modern, and incredible for pictures. I love all the different areas - lower level for a great first impression and cocktail hour, rooftop for ceremony & pictures at sundown, and main level for reception, dinner, entertainment, etc. The space worked beautifully. Everyone commented on what a great venue it was. I worked with Brett for the initial tour & contract and worked with Melissa for the heavy logistics and she was our day-of wedding coordinator. Can't recommend them enough.The Haight's reply:
Lisa, thank you for your kind words! It was such a pleasure working with you and Colin throughout your planning process. We are so honored to be a part of your special day. Wishing you all the best, cheers! -

We knew the venue was gorgeous and just what our daughter and new son were looking for. What we didn't realize was how amazing the staff would be making sure this was their perfect day from start to finish! Not only did they set everything up (to my daughters specifications) but packed everything up at the end and took so much stress and worries away so we could all enjoy the day. -

Perfect venue
The Haight is the best! The staff was so kind to us and made sure we had everything we needed that day. They helped me out so much (there were definitely a lot of emails) as I was planning from a different state. If your looking for a rustic place to have your wedding this is the place! We are so thankful we were able to have our wedding here! We wouldn’t want it anywhere else!The Haight's reply:
Thank you for those kind words, Ariela! You truly had such a beautiful wedding here with us! Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness together, cheers! -

Evelyn Sent on 09/01/2021our dream come true
From the day that I first found The Haight online, I could not stop thinking about how beautiful the venue is and envisioned my wedding there. We had planned on touring a couple venues before making a final decision, but once we stepped into The Haight our minds were made and we were ready to book! Initially we were set to have our wedding August 2020, but decided to postpone due to the pandemic until August 2021. Throughout it all, Brett and everyone at The Haight has been great about communication, recommendations, and answering our many questions! With Brett's help, we knew exactly what we needed to get done ahead of time and what details to focus on which helped take the stress of wedding planning off of us as the wedding day got closer.
Our wedding day was everything we imagined! The bridal and groom suites were perfect for getting ready and photos/videos, we loved being able to spend the entire day at the venue! The Haight staff took care of setting up our personal items that we brought (photos, photobooth props, guest book, etc.) exactly as we had envisioned. The entire venue is full of beautiful photo backdrops including the new deck! We cannot put into words how beautiful The Haight is and how lucky we are to be able to say we had our wedding at The Haight!The Haight's reply:
Evelyn, thank you so much for your kind feedback! We really enjoyed working with you, thank you for letting us be a part of your special day! -

The Haight staff were very supportive to their couples who were affected by the Pandemic. They put their couples needs first and supported them through every step of the way.
Lauren and her team were amazing to work with and our special day, be it that it was delayed, was worth the wait in the end because it was truly special and beautiful.The Haight's reply:
Thank you so much Shannon! We are so happy it was worth the wait! You and Kegan were amazing to work with every step of the way! We wish you a lifetime of love and happiness together! -

Taylor Sent on 07/09/2021The most incredible team and venue! Highly recommend!
It's hard to put into words how incredible Lauren and The Haight team were to work with. The venue is gorgeous and speaks for itself but they were what made our wedding the best it could be. We couldn't have imagined a better group of people to help us in our wedding planning process or a better venue to host our dream wedding. The entire team was kind, responsive, helpful, flexible and truly made us feel so special. They went above and beyond to make our day go smoothly. We never had to worry about a single thing. With The Haight, you don't just get a venue, you get a team of coordinators working to make your day as wonderful as possible. We would recommend them to anyone looking for their dream wedding venue.The Haight's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words Taylor!! We absolutely loved working with you and Ryan! -

Jessica M. Sent on 06/26/2021Gorgeous Venue Amazing Team
The Haight is an absolutely gorgeous venue in Downtown Elgin. It's walkable to the river and several cute restaurants/photo spots. Even without a single decoration, it has so much character and multiple spaces to host your celebration including a new rooftop bar, downstairs cocktail area, upstairs ceremony/reception space, and beautiful bridal room.
Beyond the venue itself, the staff at The Haight is incredible! They are responsive and organized throughout the entire process and offer plenty of suggestions and assistance leading up to your big day. They will coordinate final details with vendors, help with timeline, coordinate seating arrangements, and even organize/set up decor. Both of my siblings were married in the past few years and The Haight was BY FAR the easiest and most helpful team to work with. Huge thank you to Brett, our day of coordinator, for making our day absolutely perfect!
I highly recommend leveraging their preferred/suggested vendors. Most are at the venue weekly and it makes the process super streamlined and stress free! I used Cuisine America for catering and Sounds Abound for my DJ and didn’t have to worry about a thing.
If you can find a date, pick The Haight! You won't be disappointedThe Haight's reply:
Thank you so much for your kind words, Jessica! You and Matt we so wonderful to work with! We wish you both the best in your future together!! -

Perfect Wedding Day
Our wedding at The Haight was nothing short of a dream come true. It was truly the most perfect day, thanks to the amazing staff that helped make it happen, from the coordinators to the bartenders! Nicole took us on our first tour and handled all of our initial communication and was so professional and friendly, we knew this was the right choice for our venue. Sarah was our day-of coordinator and even throughout the stress of planning a wedding in a pandemic, she kept us informed and was prompt answering any questions we had. We did not have to stress about a single thing on our wedding day - everything was executed flawlessly, and they even took the time to set up and pack up all of our decorations. The space itself is amazing - our guests raved about how neat of a venue it was, and we really enjoyed the rooftop even on a chilly day in May. So happy we had our wedding at The Haight and would 100% recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect venue!The Haight's reply:
Thank you so much for these kind words Jessica! We absolutely loved working with you noth from your tour to your big day! We wish you and Rogan a lifetime of love and happiness! -

Aman Sent on 05/06/2020The Wedding Venue of Our Dreams
Words cannot describe how magical our wedding was at The Haight. It was the first venue we looked at and we knew right away that it would be the one. From all of the pre-planning visits and communications to the day of, it was an incredibly easy and rewarding experience with the team. Brett was very informative, helpful, and completely understanding during the whole process. The planning and details all came together, yet we still could not believe how amazing our reception looked! The team exceeded our expectations, making our day truly special. We cannot thank Brett and the team enough for all of their hard work and dedication to making our wedding the best day of our lives. It was an absolute dream, and we give the highest recommendation to The Haight -

Kylie Sent on 10/28/2019Phenomenal venue, even better service
The Haight speaks for itself when it comes to ambiance. But what I want to shout out is the quality of service they provide. Their day-of coordinators are all worth thousands just for the quality and amount of service they give pre-wedding and especially wedding day.
Brett was our coordinator and my entire family and bridesmaids kept commenting on his efficiency and just overall helpfulness the entire day. My dad even said, “I feel like every time I needed something or had to ask a question I turned around and he was right there to take care of it or answer it.”
Their system for getting wedding day details from you and who is in charge of what is easy and efficient. And then day of, Brett completely made my vision come to life, and set up all of our personal items for us, coordinated with the vendors, basically took care of every single thing so all I had to do was show up and look good.
The Haight has the whole package, would recommend to anyone!The Haight's reply:
Thank you so much Kylie for this wonderful review! We absolutely loved working with you!! Congratulations again to you and Philip! -
