About Venues in Chicago, IL
Chicago's venue scene splits cleanly between the North Shore — Highland Park, Northbrook, Glencoe, Deerfield country clubs and banquet halls — and city venues in River North, the West Loop, and the Loop. North Shore rooms offer more capacity, parking, and traditional ballroom layouts; city venues skew design-forward and industrial. The indoor banquet tradition is deep here, so December and January Saturdays are well-attended and often run 20–30% under peak-season rates. Confirm whether the room will allow a cRc-supervised caterer brought in from Skokie if kosher is part of the plan.
