Premier Wedding Venue & Timeless Event Space
Holds ceremonies and receptions
Amber has a beautiful venue here in central Illinois! What blew me out of the water was how much Amber showed interest in my vision for my wedding. It could and would be a stunning venue! She helped me envision my perfect day and answered all my questions without even booking with her. She cares about all the brides’ needs and wants for them to have the best possible experience. She has made the search for a venue easy. As I are still touring venues, I would highly recommend scheduling a tour with Amber at The Westgate!
My fiance, Mom and I toured the Westgate location with Amber in our search for our wedding venue. It is such a beautiful location, but what truly stood out was how much Amber showed true interest in what I wanted as a bride for my wedding. She answered all of my questions, helped to come up with solutions for planning, all without me booking prior. She truly cares about the brides she works with and wants them to have the best experience possible, which I so appreciated. Would definitely recommending touring and booking with Amber at Westgate!
