Wedding Venues in Chicago

44 venues, with capacity, what the rental includes, and who actually publishes a price.

We looked at every wedding venue we could find operating in Chicago, then read each one's own website for the things couples actually ask first: how many people fit, what the rental includes, whether you can bring your own caterer, and what it costs. Every line below links to the page we found it on.

One thing worth knowing before you start. Of the 59 venues we found, only 19 publish any pricing at all. That is not an accident, and it is not you missing something — most venues in this market quote by email after you enquire. So expect to ask, expect a range rather than a number, and expect the day of the week and the month to move it more than anything else.

Venues that publish their pricing

Rare enough to be worth listing separately. These figures are quoted from their own sites and change with season and day of week — confirm before you budget on them.
