We held a wedding for 150 (could have been more) and wanted an urban blank canvas for our wedding reception. Michael C. was AMAZING. The years of experience shows in how flawlessly...
his team can set up the space. His rolodex of vendor is amazing -he has worked with all major vendors and recommended the lighting company - MK Lighting - and had worked with my coordinators (Designed and Detailed) and florist (Juliet Tan) before. His patience and calmness was wonderful and he made sure to have my husband's blue cheese olives for his gin martini on hand at the bar. This is still a hidden gem for wedding - VW does a ton of corporate events but it shouldn't be overlooked for weddings. I will miss the team here that made my wedding day the stuff of dreams.

ely professional. We appreciated his guidance throughout the process of planning and hosting our wedding at Venue West. The venue itself is very flexible and allowed us to hold our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception with seamless transitions. The team did a great job on the day of the wedding, we felt at ease knowing that the team had taken care of all the details we discussed. I would highly recommend holding your event at Venue West (and using J&L Catering)!

staff (thank you Janel!) and the catering staff at J&L (thank you Karly!)- we fell in love with the space, the team, and how customizable the space is. On the day of our wedding, everyone was amazing making sure we had everything we needed and making everything run smooth behind the scenes by coordinating the vendors, designing the room, and preparing amazing food and cocktails. We could not have asked for a better day and will cherish the memories of our wedding at Venue West forever. Thank you for everything!
I work with MODE Events in Chicago, and one of our DJs worked a wedding here this past weekend. Kyle with the venue was SO great to work with! She knows the space well, and was ver...
