Having our wedding reception at the Dalcy was the best decision we made. Throughout the entire planning process we worked with Liz and she went above and beyond- answering countless questions, accommodating last minute requests to come see the ...

venue, helped us select the best food and wines….I could go on all day about what she did for us, and also want to note that she made it SO fun for us along the way! When it came to the day of, Liz ensured every detail was accounted for and the overall service by the Dalcy team was absolutely incredible. We were treated like royalty in the bridal suite with our favorite hors d’oeuvres and cocktails waiting for us and someone watching the door to make sure we had alone time when we wanted it. On top of the incredible service, the Dalcy space is beautiful with a feeling of both elegance and intimacy, and has truly some of the best wedding food you will ever have. We had so many guests coming up to us saying that it was one of the best weddings they have been to and some of the best wedding food they have ever had - and we know for a fact that is because of the amazing team at the Dalcy. Thank you Liz and the Dalcy for making the wedding of our dreams a reality!

My goodness was this the perfect wedding at The Dalcy. The space is amazing, but it's the other elements that really make this venue so perfect. First of all... Liz Hake. She is just the best. So easy to work with, helped us every step of the w...

ay, so accommodating... I could go on and on. The food was simply amazing. I got so many compliments from guests that it's the best wedding food they've ever had. It was clean plate club all around. My goodness was it good. On the day of the wedding, Justin was helping myself and the bridesmaids with anything we needed, he was amazing. I could not recommend The Dalcy more. We loved it, our guests loved it, UGH! I will be dreaming about the space for the rest of my life. Thank you to everyone at The Dalcy!

We recently had our wedding at The Dalcy (with cocktail hour in Aba, inside) and it was more than we ever could have hoped for! From the initial tour, to the tasting, to the speciality cocktail selection to the actual wedding… it was all amazin...

g! Liz and the entire Dalcy team were a dream to work with. I cannot say enough positive words. The space is stunning even before any decor is brought in and the food is restaurant quality for 170+ people which made the evening fantastic. I wish we could get married every year to repeat the party. Thank you to the Dalcy for an unforgettable celebration!!!!!

The Dalcy was an absolute dream location for our wedding. The venue is absolutely stunning itself (which was a nice way to reduce costs on florals/decorations) and has useful accommodations like a private bridal suite, access to table/chair/lin...

en/serveware rentals, and access to use Aba's outdoor roof deck. Liz was a pleasure to work with from start to finish - she is very responsive to emails, detailed and thorough and knowledgable on the industry, helping us plan exactly what we wanted within our budget. She gave us options when we wanted them while also helping us be decisive to keep things moving. The staff on wedding far exceeded our expectations - Justin consistently checked in with us throughout the night, making a special platter of appetizers so we got a chance to try them and making sure we had water/drinks when we wanted them. They truly didn't miss a beat all night. Lastly the food was incredible. We had such a fun time during the food tasting and were blown away how accommodating and flexible the chef and kitchen was when selecting the menu. Sure enough, the food on wedding day did not disappoint. I highly recommend choose The Dalcy if you're looking for an "all-inclusive" feel venue that is elegant, modern and equipped with kind and intelligent staff!

BEAUTIFUL VENUE AND AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE - Our wedding was scheduled to take place in July of 2020 in Chicago, but unfortunately, with the government shut downs and stay at home orders, we will likely have a small wedding with just a few fa...

mily members (we are planning a move in 2021 and thus, cannot postpone). As such, we sadly will no longer be hosting our reception at The Dalcy, but I had to write a review saying how wonderful my experience was working with this venue from start to finish. The venue is gorgeous and the staff (especially Christine) are very responsive, helpful, and classy. I would highly recommend this venue for any event as the space is very versatile and the employees are extremely professional.

aks for itself :). Utilizing Aba for the cocktail hour absolutely wowed our guests. People are still talking about it! Chicago proved to have it's flaky weather and it was a particularly chilly Fall day - Aba provided ample heaters to ensure all of our guests were comfortable. Both Liz and Angela were super responsive to our never-ending questions and worked with us every step of the way to ensure our day was perfect - including the hours leading up due to weather difficulties. Having the cocktail hour in the connecting Aba restaurant / rooftop patio and the formal reception in the Dalcy space was a smooth transition and did not require as much decorating because the spaces themselves are so beautiful. The Dalcy covers it all - coat check, AMAZING bathrooms (trust me - look at the pics), aesthetically pleasing ambiance - floral team very happy with how convenient everything was, two amazing bars with bar tenders that kept our guests happy all night. THE FOOD. If I had a dollar for how many compliments we got on the food, it would have paid for the wedding itself! Not to mention, the presentation of each appetizer and dish is stunning (are able to see at the tasting). If you choose, The Dalcy also includes items that most venues do not like menus/table cards/etc. If I could relive the night all over again, I would in large thanks to The Dalcy :). Cannot lose with choosing this venue!

I can't stress enough how much we loved The Dalcy and Christine. We were looking for a wedding venue that was a little different than the standard hotel ballroom, and are so happy that we found this space. It is beautiful and welcoming, full of...

thoughtful touches that make it very unique. Christine was a dream to work with from the beginning -- friendly, communicative, accommodating and patient, answering our million questions quickly and clearly. Our wedding went very smoothly, and if there were any issues we do not know about them. The mezze dinner was a huge hit with our guests, with many commenting it was the best meal they've had at a wedding. The entire day-of team were wonderful and friendly, quietly making sure everything was in order and that we as bride and groom had everything we needed. I highly recommend hosting your event at The Dalcy.

ed. We hosted the cocktail hour in the connecting Aba restaurant and rooftop patio, and the formal reception in the Dalcy space. This worked out perfectly, allowing for the cocktail hour to be indoor/outdoor with plenty of room to mingle. The Dalcy itself has everything you could need! Inside the space there is a coat check, brand new bathrooms (with chandeliers), two amazing bars, and plenty of space for a dance floor (even with our 200 guests). It was incredibly convenient knowing that we did not have to deal with other vendors for tables, chairs, and food - and boy is the food good! They were very accommodating and even allowed us to add a pasta course... guests still are telling us how good the food was! I could keep going forever... we were able to use their table numbers, card box, and purchase favor boxes for our guests through them, and they even will print menus for you as well. All in all, the night was perfect, all thanks to the Dalcy!
