We got married at the Loews and are still beaming about every single detail. I do not have the time or space to adequately do this venue justice. McKenzie Gacki our catering manager was an absolute dream. She was with us every step of the way and made everything from our tasting to checking into our rooms such a memorable and fun experience. The entire hotel staff were kind and efficient. The food was phenomenal and the view from the rooftop for our ceremony could not be beat. I will forever shout my praises for Loews Hotel.

Wow. I cannot imagine a more perfect wedding venue. First of all, the room is stunning and barely requires any decor because it speaks for itself. The staff, especially Leah (Conference Services Manager), is so kind and accommodating. She made us feel so special throughout the planning process and during the wedding. It's wonderful to work with a venue who genuinely cares about their clients and guests. I was also so impressed with the food. The presentation and creativity was phenomenal and the food itself was delicious. The hotel was beautiful and all of the staff were incredibly kind and welcoming. The Loews made our day stress free and magical. Would definitely work with the venue again!

After looking and pricing out several venues, we went with the Loews Chicago Hotel. Quite simply, it is a beautiful space and offered the best bang for our buck. 90% of our guest...

s were coming from out of town and had never been to Chicago, and we wanted a place that really would give them a great experience as well as make our wedding memorable. The first catering manager we met with, Megan, was great. She worked with us, and put together a very competitive package for us, and gave us a few bonuses as well. Unfortunately as we got close to our date, she left and Leah stepped in, and I am happy to say, the Loews didn't skip a beat. Leah honored everything Megan had promised us, and then some. The entire Loews staff was friendly and really made us feel special. The hotel itself if new, modern yet classy looking. We had our wedding in the Sullivan ballroom, and unlike most places, their linens and chargers are very decorative, and the room itself was the perfect size for our wedding (110 people) and made it feel intimate, without tables being on top of each other. Leah partnered with our wedding planner and made sure the room looked perfect for the reception and dinner. And speaking of dinner, the food is amazing. We had our tasting at Rural Society, the restaurant in the hotel, and while we knew the food was good, we received an unbelievable amount of compliments on the food, both the appetizers and dinner, from our guests. With a Starbucks, great lobby bar "ETA," and the aforementioned Rural Society, in addition to Leah and her great staff, the Loews Chicago Hotel was the perfect venue for our wedding.
