Finding the right venue is stressful enough so you'd always hope to have someone as kind as Scout! We hosted a pop-up for our small jewelry business, and it was perfect. This beautiful space can be used for more than weddings. The venue itself was the perfect size. The fact that we didn't have to bring our own tables or chairs is such a huge plus. And the fact that there's a huge free parking lot for the venue is enough to want to book the place. Beautiful interiors, comfortable temperature. Everyone loved it. I hope to do another event here!

We were recently wed at Bridgeport Art Center's Skyline Loft, which VL manages. Our experience was…read morevery positive! Our sales consultant, Gretchen, albeit a bit abrasive, was super responsive. Once we entered into a contract, the majority of our interface was with Kate who was awesome. The bar service at our event was fabulous - the service was seriously on point! Only constructive feedback we'd provide is around their client management cycle - we wish it was clearer to us sooner that she was our main point of contact - their transition of communication from Gretchen to Jim to Kate was slightly confusing. It also felt like the forms we had to fill out and send back were cumbersome and a repetitive, especially as compared to some of our other vendors, like our production company and photographer, where everything was electronic and super smooth.

They know the industry and their spaces inside and out and will bend over backwards to make sure events run as smoothly as possible. Their bar team, led by Marcello, knows how to keep it moving while still pouring the best drinks and not making guests feel rushed. They are among the best you will find at any venue in the city. Essentially, these are the pros you want responsible for the venue and bar service at your wedding/event. We always know we're in good hands when we work in one of their spaces and look forward to it every time.

This is a small, intimate avenue in Chicago that hosts concerts, opera, and plays. There really isn't a bad seat in the venue! We were able to snag one of the larger opera boxes, which I highly recommend, especially if you're going with friends. Ours was on the left side and perfectly angled toward the stage, so we were incredibly close. The box seats up to six people and they even provide water for you, which was a nice touch. The venue also has a bar area and a balcony. For this show, the balcony was general admission. There are four large balcony boxes and two smaller two-person boxes, which would be super cute for a date or going with a friend. The staff were extremely friendly, and parking was surprisingly easy! We found street parking within about five minutes. They do serve food and drinks, though we didn't get any this time. Overall, the show was intimate, fun, and such a great experience. If I come back for another concert at Thalia Hall, I'll definitely try to get an opera box again.

This review is long overdue! I had my wedding at Damenzo's in March. Natale, her husband,and her…read morewhole team were absolutely great to work with. Natale is extremely quick (I'm talking within the hour or at least within the same day) at answering emails. They were extremely accommodating with our vendors, set up time, and all the little things that come up with planning a wedding. The banquet hall is beautiful. You can't find many halls with this structure and it really added to the charm of the place. The food was amazing! We had chicken parmesan, a house salad, fried ravioli and bruschetta for appetizers, and italian ice and it was all fantastic. They're also very generous with portions. The bar was also well stocked and moved quickly. I know many banquet halls will skimp on the liquor but our guests all had no complaints. Damenzo's really provided quality service and a great time for a very reasonable cost. I was initially overwhelmed with how we would keep within budget for the wedding but Natale really let us tailor things to make it work. I would definitely consider coming back to Damenzo's for another major party!

We had to stay in the crowded lobby for a long time before the ceremony space was opened. The restrooms are far away from the action, about as far from the party as they could be. The second floor cocktail space was cramped. The two bartenders were soooo slow. Not sure if they were part of the catering staff the Rookery uses or separate. Dinner was exceptional. No one knew the bar moved from the second floor to a space under a first-floor staircase for drinks after dinner. There was no announcement of where desserts were located. A lot of the issues I had with the wedding could have been eliminated had an experienced planner been hired. Too often during the day guests were not sure where to go or what was happening, what was next. It's a beautiful space but my advice to couples would be to hire a planner who is experienced and who has worked several wedding at the Rookery. Also, I was told the space was rented the night before the wedding so the couple couldn't have a rehearsal. Unfortunately, that was obvious and added to the disjointed event. Also, some tourist walked into the back of the ceremony space during the wedding. I would have thought Rookery staff/security would keep tourists out of a private event, but this is one of those things that will become a funny wedding story in a couple of years.
