.... ....13 June 2026 …read more.. .... ........The Reception.......... The wedding between Mitchell and Krystal was fantastic and everyone enjoyed their reception at the Crystal Palace , Mount Prospect, Illinois. This was the typical Assyrian reception with hummus, pita bread , samosas, followed by a salad. Red and White Wine was present at every table. The music was middle eastern as was the food. Meat kabobs and Chicken kabobs served with white rice. The food was very tasty , especially the Samosas. The Crystal Palace is adorned with Crystal Chandeliers throughout the banquet hall, hence it's name , Crystal Palace. There was an open bar , dancing , good food , music and a wonderful time was had by all as two families join together as one. The father - daughter dance was emotional. So too was the mother & son dance. Family and friends tossed money on the couple as they enjoyed their first dance as Man & Wife. It's tradition in the Middle East to shower the couple with money.

The room was really nice as were the staff, but the food was just awful and I'm pretty sure I got…read morefood poisoning from it. The scoop of ice cream with chocolate sauce on top was *solid* rock hard and tasted like it had been sitting uncovered in the freezer for weeks . I took one small bite of the frosting of a brownie they were offering and the taste was even slightly worse than the ice cream. Overall I think food quality is a very important piece of the banquet experience, so I do not recommend.

I went to Chez Hotel to look at the event spaces available to hold our high school reunion. The…read moreevent spaces here are very nice and very classy. I was impressed with the care that went into the design of the these spaces. The rooftop restaurant and bar are great facilities. While we toured the area there was a yoga and juice party going on. The prices ended up being in the upper end of the price range we had. Then the saleswoman we had been working with told us that the prices did not include gratuity or taxes. This put the venue out of our price range.

My experience with the Chez Hotel was absolutely awful. The day of my daughter's wedding shower…read moreour coordinator was a no show. I had been dealing with her for 9 months. Btw, you pay an extra 250.00 for the coordinator fee in their contract. There wasn't a person to replace her that day. I was lied to for several hours, saying that Fatima, our coordinator, was on the way. I was given one excuse after another for her absence. The General Manager was out of town on vacation and the owner was out of the country. Who was running the establishment????That information was provided to me by another coordinator who had his own party going on, in the building, upstairs. It was a large party of 100 guests. The person running that event claims he ran both parties. He did not. His name was Payton. We were on our own with one full time waitress and another that popped in and out. She, the other server, was also helping with the party upstairs and that explained her disappearance. They were short staffed and tried to get through both events. My party ended up suffering in every sense of the word. Our lunch was late in being brought out. Almost a full hour, late. Our soup was cold and sparse. Our salads were wilted. Our main dish was filet medallions and not only was the meat cold, there were no steak knives provided. The veggies were burnt as if reheated and potatoes cold. Our server was so overwhelmed serving 41 guests, basically by herself, she was unable to EVER, offer drinks to my guests. Most, were only served water and refills weren't available. I had paid for 2 different varieties of punch. This was also very late in coming out. I basically served several guests, the punch, myself. I also paid for coffee, tea, ice tea and soft drinks to be offered. That never happened. I had complained to the front desk 5-7 times. I complained to the waitress several times since there was no one else. Finally, the coordinator, Payton, from the party upstairs showed up, but by that time our meals were thrown in the bus pans, uneaten. What a horrible, expensive waste!!!! We had him take pictures of the bus pans to show his boss. I was given 2 business cards from Payton. His, and the General Manager's. He did acknowledge a problem but advised me to contact the manager. Michelle, the General Manager had me wait 2 full days to meet with her. She is not only rude and arrogant, but never offered an apology. She actually claimed no responsibility for the failed event and had an answer for everything, well rehearsed, I might add. That in itself, told me she had, had this similar problem with many other disappointed customers. She was very calculated in her defense and reacted with total disregard. After reading reviews on Yelp, I found that either you love the place or don't!! There is no consistency. I failed to check Yelp before signing the contract that they did not fulfill. I did fulfill my end by paying in full, 10 days before the event. Cash!! They don't take credit cards because of a chance you might dispute it. Isn't that INTERESTING???? Beware also, of their contract because it adds an enormous gratuity that the waitress never sees!!!! I was told by the server she only gets a hourly wage and THE HOUSE, keeps the entire gratuity. Mine was over $800.00. That is sickening because the only person working for me that day was the waitress. Do not be fooled as I was. This woman, Michelle is a greedy human being who lacks integrity and grace. She will lie right to your face and DID, then escort you out of her building. Please don't let my experience happen to you. It was an extremely expensive day that was basically ruined.

As with most Wedding Planners and Event Managers - we are very focused on finding the ideal venue,…read morewhich will help us to deliver a beautiful and memorable event for our clients. Our first impression upon arriving at The Cotillion Banquets in Palatine, IL - for an upcoming wedding venue selection visit, was the grand and opulent exterior and ample parking lot. Our team from Luxe Décors and Events, LLC, was greeted by George, the director and information specialist on everything you hoped for, wanted and envisioned to happen, at The Cotillion Banquets in Palatine, IL. George is beyond warm, pleasant, professional, knowledgeable, charming, gracious, efficient, and oh so very skilled at listening to what you would like to accomplish for the event, that you have been hired to do. We hit it off with George IMMEDIATELY upon meeting him. He took us on a guided tour of The Cotillion Banquets, explaining to us in measured detail, what was at our disposal, to ensure that we would be able to do everything that we had planned, and be able to provide our clients - the wedding of their dreams, with regards to their décor and wedding theme. The staff at The Cotillion, under George's dedicated, experienced and genuine love and pride for what he has been doing for so many, many years - also reflects the outstanding service provided by everyone at The Cotillion Banquets. The kitchen staff, is beyond kind, truly professional and obviously loves what they do. The table settings were impeccable. The food - all freshly prepared by The Cotillion staff - is simply AMAZING !!! When we first arrived to meet with George and get to see what The Cotillion had to offer - we had already been informed about the superb level of service and the first class menu selections. The Cotillion DID NOT DISAPPOINT. We were also introduced to the owners of The Cotillion, who were also so genuinely kind and considerate, obviously wanting to also ensure, that we knew they were available, should we have any additional concerns. The Cotillion Banquets in Palatine will forever be Number One on our recommendation list for any and all events, which we are privileged to manage. We cannot say enough about ALL that George did to make this wedding event so beautiful, memorable, classy and successful. No matter how skilled, talented, or experienced an Event Planner is - without directors such as George at the venue site - who can offer their kindness, experience and support - an event will not be as successful and seamless as you may have envisioned. We at Luxe Décors and Events, LLC, are eternally grateful to you George, your staff and the owners - at The Cotillion Banquets in Palatine - for your genuine friendship, guidance and assistance, in helping to make the wedding event on November 22, 2024, the elegant success that it was. THANK YOU GEORGE, FOR MAKING OUR JOB SEAMLESSLY SUCCESSFUL!! Bravo to you George and a special toast as well to you and Everyone at The Cotillion Banquets.
