Tinley Park Convention Center Reviews

I had my wedding at the Tinley Park Convention Center and it was perfect from beginning to end! Everything was included in the plate pricing, including cake, tax and gratuity, so I knew up front what my total would be without any last minute charges. It’s attached to a hotel, which was a big plus for my out of town guests. There is plenty of parking as well. When it came to our tasting we were amazed at how detailed and classy it was. The food tastes great and they get every detail down to how you want your napkins folded!

Fast forward to the rehearsal and wedding day; we had Alyssa as our coordinator and she couldn’t have been more helpful or on top of it! She led us through an efficient rehearsal, gave a bunch of tips on what will look good in the pictures, and made detailed notes on where we wanted everything for the big day. On my actual wedding day, everything was flawless. Alyssa dealt with multiple vendors seamlessly and found us a perfect first look spot. We opted to have our ceremony there as well, and it was gorgeous. After the ceremony we had a wonderful cocktail hour with delicious hors d’oeuvres (included in the plate price!) and strong drinks! During cocktail hour their amazing staff was flipping the ceremony room into part of the reception room. It looked AMAZING. The meal was delicious and we got quite a few compliments on it. We opted for the wagyu sirloin and chicken piccata.

We also opted for late night pizzas which were served in their hotel restaurant after the wedding was over. A short walk from the ballroom to the restaurant (all indoors), and we even got our own private room to have pizzas, hang out and continue the party!

After the wedding, the couple gets a stay in their suite at the hotel (also included in the price) and it was so wonderful not to have to worry about transportation on my wedding night. The staff and Alyssa worked so hard that night (and throughout the process) to make this the most perfect day ever and I would recommend this venue to anyone wanting an all-inclusive, stress free day!

I knew the minute I stepped foot in the convention center that I would be getting married there.. The ballroom was so open and spacious, the service we received was amazing, the food was fantastic, and the set up rocked!! Jennifer made sure everything was under control so there was absolutely nothing I had to worry about before, during and after our wedding.. She is seriously a miracle worker!! Everything was so flexible so we were able to make our wedding exactly how we have always envisioned it! I feel like we got the most out of our money by having our wedding there.. I would recommend the Tinley Park Convention Center to any engaged couple, you will NOT be diisappointed!!

I had my wedding this year at TPCC. It was everything I could ever imagine! TPCC was the perfect venue. A big special thanks to all of the staff, especially to Jennifer West. You all made my fairytale dream of a wedding come true!

We just had our reception here and our ceremony elsewhere, although they do have a set up for ceremonies as well. From the beginning we knew this was the right fit for us. The packages they offer are literally all-inclusive for what we wanted. We did not feel like we were being nickel-and-dimed and only paid extra for a couple things that we wanted at very reasonable prices (table runners and an extra night in the hotel). The only other extras would be uplighting or hanging ball lights which we did not feel we needed, but were still really reasonable. We had a lot of materials for them to set up for our very DIY wedding and they followed all instructions and took care of everything. I did not need to worry about anything the day of the wedding other than getting ready and getting married. They were also extremely accommodating with creating an excellent vegetarian dish for me and the more than average number of vegetarians that attended. I believe there is a transition for event coordinators currently, but it felt seemless to us. Everyone we met knew what they were talking about and did an amazing job. Communication was very quick most of the time, but every once in a while took a day or two to respond by email. Otherwise, I was very happy to have our reception here. They made everything so easy and essentially worry-free. Thank you to TPCC, Daniel, Jennifer, and all the staff for an amazing reception!

Food, service, the staff and size of the space FAR exceeded our expectations. Our guests were thrilled with the service during dinner and cocktail hour! Working with Daniel and his staff was wonderful, we can not say enough good things about each and ever one of them! They are knowledgeable, friendly and made our day run seamlessly from beginning to end! HIGHLY recommend Tinley Park Convention Center for anyone looking for a huge space, good food, and wonderful staff for your wedding!

We had our wedding here this past weekend and I cannot get over how perfect everything was!!! I am in love with TPCC and want every bride to see how amazing this place is. I'm the type of person that is extremely thorough in every decision I make - I research, read reviews, ask too many questions, etc. I'm also very skeptical. The fact that I didn't know anyone who had hosted an event at TPCC made me hesitant. I had never tasted their food. The reviews were positive but there wasn't a lot of them. Those would have normally been 3 strikes for me but after visiting the venue and meeting with Angela, I could not stop thinking of having our wedding here. Angela was so unbelievably nice and answered every one of the million questions I had. I HAD to have the wedding here. We put down the deposit and kept our fingers crossed that when it came time for the tasting we wouldn't regret it. OH MY GOD - the food is AMAZING. It was so hard to finalize our decision after the tasting because everything was so delicious. We ended up going with the mesquite chicken quesadillas, bbq meatballs, and bruschetta for hors d'oeuvres. Our salad was the apple-walnut baby spinach with cranberry dressing. For the main course we did a duo plate of 2 meats (herb stuffed chicken roulade and beef short ribs) with roasted marble potatoes and green beans/red peppers. We also had late night snacks brought out for our guests - hamburger sliders, mini pretzel wrapped hot dogs, and pizzas. We were overwhelmed by compliments from our guests on the food & venue. It looked beautiful!!! I cannot give Angela enough praise. She honestly made our dream wedding into a reality and I will never be able to thank her enough. She was so flexible and accommodating throughout the whole process. I don't know how she puts up with brides all the time and stays so nice and friendly haha The service of the entire TPCC staff (and hotel) was on another level.

The venue's coordinator, Angela Foreman, made the process wonderful and easy. She is responsive and knowledgable. The day went flawlessly! The food was delicious and the bar never had a line!

Tinley Park Convention Center was our reception venue and we have nothing but positive things to say about this place! Angela, the event coordinator, is awesome and made planning a reception so easy! She answered emails right away and accommodated visits with our schedules to go look at the convention center in the beginning stages of planning. From the moment we walked in we seriously loved how modern and open the whole place is. We knew we didn't want a typical banquet hall reception in small, dark room and the convention center was our dream come true. The cocktail hour was in the lobby and made it so much more social rather than inside the room. The appetizers are sooo delicious, we had so many compliments on how plentiful the platters were and how great the service was. Dinner was amazing, seriously not your typical banquet hall food, nothing but compliments on that also. The cake is included in the package and is from Creative Cakes, which is also delicious!! I would recommend TPCC to anyone planning a wedding, I could go on forever talking about how great it is there!

We looked at a lot of places and this venue was by far he best....I couldn't have been happier having my wedding at the Tinley Park Convenrion Center. Angela was there to answer every question I had and truly made my day very special .....the food is outstanding....my guest have had nothing but raving reviews.....we had our ceremony and reception there and I am so glad we did...the day was very well corrdinated and effortless for myself and my husband. ...

WOW! We visited 12 venues before we saw TPCC. We knew immediately this was the perfect place for our wedding ceremony and reception. We were greeted warmly by Angela Foreman and she was extremely helpful along the way from our planning, tasting, rehearsal dinner and the wedding day itself. The food at TPCC was excellent! None of our guests had actually attended a wedding at this place before so it was new to everyone. TPCC received rave reviews from all our guests! From the beautiful ceremony outside, to the private cocktail room and a spacious ballroom for the reception, we were SO happy with the outcome of the day. Angela and her team were extremely flexible during the planning process. From decorations to food and drinks, we didn't have to worry about ANYTHING on our wedding day. The hotel staff at Holiday Inn and the folks at Banana's Bar & Grill were also top-notch. We would recommend TPCC to any couple planning their wedding. It was a very special day and we are so happy we chose this venue. THANK YOU TPCC!!!

Tinley Park Convention Center was the perfect place to have our wedding reception! The service and food was outstanding. Angela was so helpful and always responded quickly. She made the wedding planning process smooth and enjoyable! Having the hotel connected was a plus as well. All around fantastic experience and so happy we had our wedding there!

I am excited about my wedding this upcoming June. The staff at TPCC has been nothing but a great help to me in making my day a special one. Angela has been nothing but AMAZING!!!! She walked me through everything and was able to make my day customizable to my wedding! Just from the preparation experience, I have no doubt that my wedding day will be just as I always dreamed.

I cannot say enough about this venue and the people! Everything was beyond perfect for our wedding! We couldn't have asked for it to run and look any better! Angela was AMAZING (she is like a personal wedding planner)!! She goes above and beyond to make your wedding absolutely perfect! They are super flexible and there are no hidden costs or surprises! Everyone we came in contact with was so friendly, even the wait staff were very nice and engaged with our guests! I can go on and on about the quality of service and professionalism from Tinley park convention center! I would recommend this venue to anyone anywhere anytime! Oh and I can't forget to mention how AMAZING and DELICIOUS the food is! If you book with them the hardest thing will be to pick between all the amazing food options! Angela and everyone at the convention center make planning a wedding a breeze! They make you feel comfortable and are there to answer any questions or concerns day or night! I am beyond happy with everything they have done for us on the best day of our lives!

We decided in January of 2015 to plan a wedding for May 2015. We visited the Tinley Park Convention Center first and realized we had found our place for our reception. The wedding coordinator, Angela Foreman, was immediately up to the challenge of planning a wedding with 250 guests in 4 months. Words cannot describe how thankful we are for all of her help. She was always available to talk either by phone or email, responded to emails at any time of day or night, wrote down every request we had, provided a timeline for getting things done before the big day, coordinated effectively, efficiently, and professionally with the florist, DJ, photographer, and made us feel completely confident in her abilities to create the most perfect reception. I really cannot say enough about Angela. I rarely stressed about the reception because I had complete faith in Angela's abilities to create my vision as she had come through for us multiple times throughout the wedding reception planning process.

Not only was Angela the absolute best wedding coordinator to work with but the entire event planning staff at TP Convention Center was always available for information and help in creating the best reception. We used the LED Lanterns which created the perfect atmosphere for the evening. The chef prepared the most delicious food - tilapia and chicken marsala with garlic mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus. We received so many compliments on the food!! We surprised our guests with a late night snack...mini hot dogs with all of the toppings to make a Chicago Style Hot Dog. They were such a hit! Our cake from Creative Cakes, the bakery that works directly with TP Convention Center, was designed from a picture I had found. It was beautiful! The entire night ran so smoothly thanks to Angela and her incredible staff. Their prices are reasonable and their service goes above and beyond. Thank you for truly creating the most perfect day of our lives!

We had our wedding at the Tinley Park Convention Center and our wedding turned out better than I could have ever imagined!!!

Everything from planning the event, to the food tasting, to the day of the wedding went so well!!! I cannot think of one thing that did not turn out good! My husband and I are just so happy that we went with this venue because of how well the entire process went!

AS far as the day of the wedding, the food is nothing short of gourmet and delicious, the hotel staff are so friendly/welcoming, AND the venue itself is just classy and has such a WOW factor. The overall service from start to finish was perfect!

Our wedding planner, Angela Foreman, is just AMAZING!! And I seriously mean that!! She knows exactly what she is doing when it comes to wedding planning. She is prepared, very organized, very personable, and remembers the littlest details (which will come in handy when she sets up all of your decorations). She has great ideas and feedback to help you with the planning and she is VERY prompt with her responses whenever I had e-mailed her about a question. She also had different forms that helps to guide you in the planning process. NO other wedding venues we visited had these kinds of tools and let me tell you, they helped a ton!!! Angela genuoinly cares about making your day perfect and ensuring that your day is memorable.

In the end, we spent a little more for this venue than we had planned, but it was worth every penny. Every one of our guests complimented us on how flawless and beautiful our wedding day was and those compliments just solidified all the reasons why we went with this venu.

If you are looking for a wedding that is organized, food is delicious, and the event planner has her stuff together, this is the venu for you!!

I highly recommend the Tinley Park Convention center for a wedding! Angela, the coordinator, is one of the most organized, responsive and accommodating people I have ever met! Anything we asked for, we got. I never waited more than a few hours for a response to an email. She was so flexible about everything. Our wedding would not have been nearly as smooth without her!

The actual venue was beautiful. They made an ordinary conference room into the room of our dreams! The package was very reasonable and included extras, like cake, tax and gratuity, which was huge. It was a great deal since we had our wedding on a prime date.

We received a lot of compliments from guests about the food and decor. The appetizers were unique and delicious! (We especially loved the quesadillas!) The dinner was truly better than any other wedding food I have ever had. Our guests said the same thing.

I 100% recommend this venue!

The Tinley Park Convention Center and Angela Foreman were absolutely amazing to work with! I could have not done everything without the assistance and support of Angela! Anytime I had a question and would email her, she would get back to me within 5 minutes even if it was a Sunday night at 9:00 pm. The Convention Center set up, display and food was absolutely amazing for my ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Everything was exactly how I had hoped, and I could not have asked for a better experience on my wedding day. I HIGHLY recommend having your ceremony and reception here! =)

We had a great experience with Jennifer West at Tinley Park Convention Center! She did an amazing job setting our decorations up and communicating anything with us. We did run into trouble when she left and had her helpers. 10 minutes before our time ended, they turned all the lights on on us. If we were not out by exactly 11:30 the helpers began flickering the lights on us. We booked our wedding until 11:30, I'd assume they'd give us until 11:30 before they turned lights on us and not ruin our final song. It was a rush to get us out which made me super upset with the professionalism.
