1. The Crawford - Naperville

The Crawford is truly one of the most beautiful, new, and modern venues out there! There are many spaces throughout the building for your ceremony to be indoors and outdoors and host your wedding with up to 250 guests. Their adjustable lighting fixtures are incredibly unique and the sleek look of the space throughout is sure to make a statement for your wedding day. There are also so many memorable amenities that we absolutely adore and really brings an elegant vibe to the whole space! The Crawford allows for any licensed vendors too which means you can choose any style or budget for your vendors which is nice, but we are also one of their preferred coordinators and planners too!

If you’re looking for something classic, modern, and gorgeous, Sky on Nine is definitely a spot for you! This space is also larger and good for up to 250 guests and has so many lovely features for a very affordable price too! If you’re looking for something elegant and don’t want to worry about catering, they have an in-house catering team that works with a lot of venues exclusively. It’s definitely a place to look if you’re looking for that timeless-yet-modern look!

3. Canvas - Wheeling

Canvas will always stick out to us as one of the most amazing venues we’ve ever worked. The production and the details are unmatched here with their in-house designer! You really can change this space in the blink of an eye, but no matter what it is always going to be classic and modern for you! You can host between 250-275 guests depending on if you’d like your ceremony onsite on their lovely outdoor patio, or you can have a quick and painless room flip indoors and truly transform the space!

4. LM Studio - Chicago

LM Studio is a hidden gem on Michigan Avenue that we truly can’t get over! There is such a beautiful edge to this space with the gold throughout the space as well as the floral mural that extends over the whole back wall. If you have your ceremony on the other side too, you get floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city and you truly can’t beat the view! This space hosts up to 130 guests and we absolutely love being here with the modern beauty and elegance it brings! The in-house caterer that works with Sky on Nine is also here at LM Studio and you know you will be getting incredible food no matter what!

The Arbory truly has a mix of lofty and modern that we absolutely adore. If you’re looking for something with a little more color, The Arbory is the best place. There is a mix of the beautiful oranges, greens, and black that is sure to stand out! With the ability to host up to 200 guests, they are able to have your ceremony and reception all in one place so you are sure to be in a gorgeous space the whole day! As house plant collectors, we absolutely love their plant wall in the front entrance too!

If you love a good barn but want to keep things modern, Providence Vineyard has an elegance that is unmatched. We love the white being throughout the whole space and it’s sure to make your wedding day bright! They can host up to 275 people and we love that they have onsite wedding suites so you can spend the day there if you’d like! Our favorite part though is the vineyard in the back - it truly is picture perfect and it’s a great spot for your ceremony too!

7. Greenhouse Loft - Chicago

Greenhouse Loft is a perfect mix of modern, elegant, and timeless while featuring some of the largest floor-length windows that we absolutely adore. There is something about those light wood, farmhouse tables that we absolutely love inside this space to really keep the bright, happy energy going! You can have your ceremony or cocktail hour on the outdoor patio or have a room flip with your cocktail hour in their art gallery, but no matter what you have to use their built-in photo booth!
