Our Story

Photos

Construction of The Haley Mansion began in 1891 and was completed two years later. The Mansion belonged to Patrick Columbus Haley, who was born on St. Patrick’s Day in 1849. Patrick was a well-known lawyer in the area and him and his wife , Mary, built this Mansion as their family home, where they raised three children.&nbsp;The Haley's were proud of their land in St. Patrick’s neighborhood, located west of the Des Plaines River and the city’s business center. Frank Shaver Allen (1860-1930) was a nationally known Architect and Egyptologist who helped create The Mansion.&nbsp;In addition, to honor Irish heritage, Gaelic insignias are cut in stone on the front porch facing Center Street.

The History 

The Haley Mansion is a castle-like wedding venue that houses 20,000 square feet of event space.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Ceremony will be held outside in the garden under the Pergola (weather permitting). Cocktail hour will allow time for guests to explore the outside garden or walk inside around the estate. The entire estate is rented for the wedding so guests are free to explore the beautiful mansion. An addition has been added for the reception area that encompasses a large dance floor. Butler service during cocktail hour and dinner is one of our favorite features of the Haley Mansion.
