What people are saying about River Room
-
"River Room is an absolutely gorgeous space in Chicago, right on the river and across from Horner Park! We worked primarily with Monica, the event manager there and she absolutely was so helpful in making our dream wedding happen. We had a magical day, thanks in part to the venue. A bonus of booking this venue is that you will get a selection of Burning Bush brewery beers, great for beer fans. It’s also a perfect setup for catering, with an industrial space, and a BEAUTIFUL bridal suite. They also have a fantastic and thoughtfully designed audio set up. We had live ceremony musicians that performed outside and they were heard clearly. You’d never know they were outside! Truly, this venue was designed to be a winning wedding space and you couldn’t go wrong with the fantastic amenities and people that RR has to offer."

"Not only is the River Room absolutely gorgeous, but they are incredible to work with. They were great at communicating very timely throughout our entire planning process and through the entire wedding weekend. Monica really helped our vision come true and all of our vendors loved working with her. Professionalism and high quality is top of mind for the River Room, and it showed throughout the entire process. We also loved getting to feature their beers and had many wedding guests (and our DJ and our Day of Coordinator) commenting how much they loved it. You won't regret booking the River Room for your big day!"

"The River Room is a gorgeous space with exposed brick, elegant lighting and a fabulous outdoor patio overlooking the Chicago river and Horner Park beyond. It is a great escape in the city and a fabulous place for a party. We had my husband's 50th birthday there and the space, location and staff were excellent. They made specialty cocktails named after him, had 4 beers of our choice on tap and a fun and friendly bartender. Easy to bring in any neighborhood food. There is even a little parking lot that we could use for those who were driving. I highly recommend this event space!"

"My husband and I couldn't have imagined a more perfect venue for our recent wedding! River Room is a beautiful space with everything we were looking for from the indoor/outdoor cohesion, flexibility in making the space set up exactly how we wanted, and amazing staff who made sure our day went off without a hitch. We loved how River Room provides the industrial Chicago vibe with the brick walls while also providing the natural, romantic vibe with the river and park backdrop, large outdoor patio space, and lighting. Our family, friends, and vendors were all highly complementary of River Room as well. Bonus is the very reasonable price point compared to other similar venues (we looked into over 50 venues in the Chicago area and River Room was the clear winner across categories of what we were looking for, including budget). We definitely recommend for weddings or any event!"

"We hosted our daughter's Bat Mitzvah at the River Room at Burning Bush and had the best time! Monica was communicative, patient, helpful and full of good ideas! The space is super flexible and so pretty that we hardly needed to bring in any outside decor. Parking was easy for our guests. And, of course, the beer was delicious! I highly recommend this spot for hosting a special event!"

The folks at the River Room were very accommodating -- we were able to have a food truck pull up, the drinks were great, and the venue was beautiful. I received many compliments from our guests.
