From friends, I'd heard about this venue in Elgin before but never had a chance to visit until I…read moreattended a wedding here recently. Now after attending, I can say that this spot really exceeded expectations. One of the best things about this spot was having a large variety of different areas for guests to spread out and socialize. This led to a much more relaxed atmosphere for talking than most weddings that I've attended (I'm not huge into dancing). Even throughout the afternoon and evening, it was very nice to be able to enjoy appetizers on the beautiful rooftop deck, enjoy music and dancing on the dance floor, while still being able to carry on a conversation in the large main dining room -- or head downstairs to lounge around to avoid the crowds and noise. As I attended for a family wedding, I was also able to utilize the generously sized suites that had more than enough room for everyone to bring items they needed and have space to get ready for the event. The Haight has done the look of a rustic venue better than most places that I've seen. One thing that I really appreciated is that the look is rustic, but the facilities themselves are in great shape and modern. There were also plenty of great photo spots all around the venue that were lit nicely and contributed to guests having plenty of photo opportunities that they could create on their own. For those who were looking to rest, I did enjoy having sofas and softer cushioned chairs available to relax in. Overall, excellent venue that I would love to attend another wedding in the future. A beautiful facility with friendly service and lots of space to move around make this a great gathering spot.

However, I was disappointed with the way the day went. With 8 hours of access we planned for an hour of clean up at the end with all guests out. The owner had my guests cleaning up the venue starting at 7:30 even though we didn't need to be out until 10:30. I understand asking guests to clean plates but my photos from the end of the night didn't have any of the decor because it was put away before my wedding was over. Truthfully it made me feel rushed to end my wedding which was very disappointing. The bartending service we hired also complained about being rushed and having their services disrupted by the owner. Again, a gorgeous venue but maybe not the place if you want a traditional wedding reception.

Checked out this food hall in Elgin. Dream Hall At 51 is a pretty cool concept and a great place to…read moreget together. It has a few quite interesting vendors. A bad thing is some of these have unreliable hours. The prices are moderate to high mostly. Basic concept as far as food halls go. It's got a main seating area in the middle. This is surrounded by vendors. Currently there's a few to choose from. Pretty much the food is at a counter that has several vendors in one. This makes it kind of confusing to place an order. Around The Bowl is where we ordered from. This has Indian, Mediterranean, and Mexican options. Viator Coffee is probably the busiest place though. Has all kinds of hipster coffee. There's also a few pastries. Got to know a lot of turnover here so it's always a lot of new businesses opening in here. It's advised not to get too attached to anything inside. They're closed Sundays.

The food is good but a bit pricey. The service is excellent, given the venue. The ambiance…read morerelaxing.

Absolutely one of the most pleasant vendor experience of our special day! Must not miss out!…read moreElements Preserved was my discovery during my Bridal Shower, for a peacock chair, and then revisited for my sister in law's Baby shower. Element's pieces made a statement, that had our whole family and friends in awe. I knew we had to have Elements Preserved pieces for the Wedding day as well. It is absolutely worth the effort to go in person and see the warehouse in its entirety. Beth's eye for detail and creative mind really is present in the beautiful space. The moments in her warehouse alongside my-then Fiance brought the most excitement and warmth when choosing which items to rent. Truly fine-tuning our aesthetic,our personality, our love story and finding items that reflected who we are. Throughout our wedding we had moments with each other where we could look over and see those pieces scattered through our cocktail hour and reception that made the biggest impact. I could not have imagined our wedding day without those gems form Elements Preserved. Thank you Beth for your guidance and passion. It would not have had that loving essence anchoring us. We thank you for your part in our journey!

The Prosecco by glass was good, but I wanted a little something more.
