Having a function at the Artisans Building is a lot of work, but serves well for DIYs like us. There are so many options for room set-up to accommodate the number of guests. The reception we hosted was for about 150, but the room could have handled many more. The wood floor is great for dancing, and the grand structure leaves an awe-struck impression.

We attended a wedding this past weekend here. Erin's Pavilion is located in Southwind Park in…read moreSpringfield, IL. It is a relatively new facility that just opened in March of last year. Both the bride and groom were from Springfield, IL and had family and friends from the area but had quite a few of us driving from out of town (we decided to make the three hour drive from Chicago). As an out of town guest, it was one of the most seamless wedding events we've attended with everything in the same space. The groom was Indian while the bride was Caucasian and they managed to have an Indian ceremony first followed by the traditional Christian ceremony in the same space both which were well done. The mandap with the fire for the Indian ceremony perfectly doubled for the Christian ceremony. Although we hadn't brought our three year old with it was nice that they had a playground close by so the perfect spot to entertain little ones. The weather was nice so during cocktail hour on the terrace it was nice to be able to walk around the pond they have behind while waiting for the reception to begin. The staff perfectly transformed both the room we were in for the ceremonies as well as the neighboring room into a great banquet hall for the 250-300 guests that attended. It was a wonderful spot to have a wedding and most guests like myself left the day having a wonderful time! A perfect, auspicious way for the sweet bride and groom to be beginning their married life together.

BEEARE! Beautiful place but horrible staff. Would NEVER recommend this for a wedding, or any event…read more I have never witnessed this level of unprofessionalism. They were very unorganized, uninformed and unprofessional. Staff created unneeded trouble and drama that could have been easily handled in a professional manner. Don't be deceived by the good looks, because the staff was horrible. The bride spent a lot of money for her big day, and the staff ruined the reception. No one was at fault except for the staff. Don't ruin your event or wedding. Look elsewhere

This admittedly was a bad experience but was out of character as I had for years rented with satisfaction every time. Today, much to my surprise, Matt Noonan the owner called me and apologized for my experience and wanted to make things right with me even offering a complete refund which was not warranted but he ready accepted my 50 percent refund offer. It is reassuring to know that the owner is committed to providing the best of service and that one can rent with this assurance.

However, I ordered flowers for Mother's Day and this is what was sent. At first, I assumed this was a mistake that missed a quality control check due to the business of the holiday, but I followed up with the recipient and they told me they actually picked up the order from the shop and spoke to the owner, which surprises me that this would meet their standards. Disappointed, as I really wanted this to be a special gift for a special person in my life. I did send a note to provide my feedback, so I'll circle back here, should I hear back!
