Perfect day!
We just had our wedding at the Firehouse, and it couldn’t have been better! We had a total of 50 people, and the space was the perfect size for us. The outdoor garden was beautiful for our ceremony in October! And the inside is so pretty and charming throughout, so we didn’t feel like a lot of decor was needed. The event producers were awesome through the whole planning time (we booked a little more than a year and a half out), and answered every question with clear answers. The coordinators day-of were amazing as well, and kept everything running perfectly. They setup everything beautifully, and made cleanup a breeze! We did almost exclusively use their recommended vendors, and the day was flawless. It is clear they are experienced, and they are so good at what they do! Absolutely recommend the Firehouse!

The Perfect Chicago Venue!
Firehouse Chicago is truly the perfect wedding venue! Our guests could not stop raving about the space. It's the perfect amount of outdoor garden atmosphere, plus a cool, classic, slightly rustic vibe indoors. We included the extra rooms upstairs as well as space to get ready and spend our day and we're so glad we did! There are endless picture perfect locations on site to get a good variety of wedding day photos. And while the space is incredibly beautiful, the managers, Sarah and Teddy, also helped make our day perfect. They are very involved in your wedding planning process from the day you sign your contract. They provide vendor suggestions and are always available for questions about wedding planning and executing things at Firehouse. They helped keep us organized with a planning document and check-in calls throughout the year. They made sure no detail was forgotten. On the day of our wedding, we got assigned two opening coordinators and two closing coordinators. This is an incredible perk of Firehouse! We didn't feel the need to hire a day-of coordinator. All of our coordinators were incredible! They set up all of our decor for us, checked in with us throughout the day to see if we needed anything, helped keep us on schedule, then cleaned up our decor at the end of the night. We got to be very present with each other and our guests because of their help and guidance. Even our guests commented on how great they were! We cannot recommend Firehouse enough!!

Our best day at the best venue!
Firehouse Chicago is magical! My husband and I got married here on the Friday of Labor day weekend and we had the best day of our lives! We toured a few places a year prior and when we left our tour for Firehouse Chicago, we just knew this must be the place! What stands out about Firehouse Chicago is the people, Sarah and Teddy are wonderful to work with for all your planning needs, which trust me as a type A person, I had so many questions. They approached every question with care and really supported our vision and if our vision changed, they were down for that too! Firehouse Chicago provides a thoughtful vendor list that really made all the wedding planning seamless and our vendors all mentioned how much they love working at Firehouse Chicago! The space itself is perfect. I love plants and being outdoors so having our ceremony in the garden area was truly a dream come true. The Firehouse is so well decorated and furnished so well that you don’t have to do a lot of wedding decor. We loved that space immediately and seeing it full of everyone we love at our wedding was incredible! So to summarize, the venue was perfect, our wedding flowed so well and felt like us, and was the perfect backdrop to celebrate our love story. Sarah, Teddy, Heidi, and Shanna were the BEST to work with. We are truly grateful for the care and attention Firehouse Chicago provided us during the planning process and day of!! Best space, best vendor list, and best vibes for a Chicago wedding! Photos by: Anna Jung-Hwa Photography

The Best Wedding Decision
I cannot say enough good things about the Firehouse and their incredible team. Our wedding was truly a dream come true. Every corner of the Firehouse is full of charm, character, and beauty. But even more memorable than the space itself was the team behind it. Sarah and Teddy and all of the Firehouse team went above and beyond from day one. Their guidance and support throughout the entire planning process was invaluable, especially since both my partner and I were working full time. They made everything feel seamless. We are so grateful for their care, responsiveness, and warmth. You can tell they genuinely care about their couples and treat each wedding with love. My only regret is that since I’m already married I can’t have another wedding at the Firehouse! Maybe a vow renewal in the future. Choosing Firehouse and the Firehouse team was truly one of THE best wedding decisions we made. Thank you Firehouse for making our wedding feel so special 3
