    Beautiful and professional

    We loved having our wedding reception at the Renaissance center. Mo and Charlie are professional and organized and helped our wedding reception run smoothly. We had guests tell us it was the best food they ever had at a wedding! So happy we chose this location.

    Best Venue In Joliet!

    My husband and I had not only 1, but 2 weddings at the Renaissance Center! This is the the best venue to have your ceremony and reception at, hands down. We had our small covid friendly ceremony here on the beautiful atrium stairs in November 2020, then finally were able to have the reception of our dreams in the banquet hall 1 year later on our anniversary. The staff goes above and beyond to exceed your expectations. We had the greatest experience working with them, and our guests loved it here and their experience as well! Gorgeous venue, awesome, helpful, and very friendly staff, (huge shout out to Maura & Charlie), & delicious food. Thank you Renaissance Center!

    Amazing space!!

    We chose the Renaissance for our wedding reception venue (married in September 2021) and could not have been happier with our decision! We received so many compliments from our guests on the facility, the spacious dancefloor, the food, and the attentiveness from the staff! From the beginning, Mo (Maura) and Charlie were incredibly organized and remained attentive throughout the whole planning process. They were an absolute pleasure to work with. Highly recommend this venue!

    Had our wedding there on 6/30/18. Couldn’t have been more pleased with everything from the ceremony to the reception. The place is beautiful and food is outstanding. Mo does an amazing job making sure everything goes smooth and is super flexible. Recommend this place to anyone looking to get married in a beautiful and fun setting.

    The Renaissance Center provided the perfect venue for our Old Hollywood themed wedding. Susie Stockwell attended to our every need and remained flexible and reliable both throughout the planning process as well as the day of our wedding. One of the most important things that wedding guests remember is the food. Susie helped us to create a unique menu. All of our guests raved about the quality and flavor of the meals we selected. Let's face it - no one likes "wedding food." The Renaissance chefs delivered and my husband and I couldn't be happier with our reception selection.

    My now husband Mitch and I had our wedding and reception at the Renaissance Center. The facility was both elegant and beautiful and the perfect venue to hold our 150 guests that was in attendance. We couldn't have created this beautiful atmosphere if it wasn't for our wedding planner Susie Stockwell. Susie is so patient with brides and she is very creative. Her ideas on how to coordinate a wedding and reception make our entire event a success! She even went to Bicentennial Park with us to make sure that our photographer was taking the pictures that she envisioned for our wedding. She is truly the best wedding planner that I have met. Mitch and I highly recommend the Renaissance Center and Susie Stockwell to any bride that is getting married. If you want your wedding dreams to come true...contact the Renaissance Center and ask for Susie Stockwell.

    Fabulous! What more can I say? Everything was perfect. Susan is wonderful. She took care of a million things I never would have even thought of. I was free to enjoy the day without having to worry about anything. The venue is gorgeous and the food is great. I can't imagine a better place for my reception.

    The Renaissance Center and Susan were outstanding! It was very affordable and the food and service were perfect. Susan is wonderful. She was organized, made sure every last detail was perfect, and had great ideas. She made recommendations on vendors and contacted them when I couldn't reach them. She took all of the stress away, which allowed us to enjoy our special day. We had many complements from our guests on the food and decorations. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone. Several of my guests decided to book Susan after our wedding. I couldn't ask for more!

    Everything looked great! The staff was so nice, and the food was great Every one loved the food I am so glad we decide to go with the three cheese chicken. All my guest couldn't stop talking about how great everything looked. The lighting in the ballroom, food, staff, and most of all Susie. She made our day everything we thought it would be.
    Susie has alot of wonderful ideas to make your day the best!

    Susan is a dream to work with... she heard everything that came out of my mouth and turned my dream into a reality that was beyond my expectations! Beautiful and not out of budget...

    The Renaissance Center isn't very impressive from the outside, but once inside the ballroom is beautiful! It was exactly the look I wanted for our wedding. Working with Suzy Stockwell is great. She makes you excited and energized about your big day. She made me feel like her only bride when I'm sure she was having to work with several. I had no worries the day of my wedding!

    I highly recommend the Renaissance Center in Joliet as your reception venue! It is a gorgeous space and such a value. I had my own reception there in July and every aspect was perfect! Susan was a great planner and very flexible with the vision I saw for our wedding day! It was an absolute perfect choice!
