“Warehouse 109 was so professional and organized with my wedding. The staff on site were so helpful, even with last minute changes! My guests loved the space- especially the outdoor area! I am so pleased with Warehouse 109 and would recommend to any newly engaged couples in the area. Quality service, a beautiful venue, competent staff, and much more affordable than the other venues in the area.”

“My husband and I just had our wedding at the Lehmann Mansion on 9/9/2023. To say it was the perfect day, is an understatement. From the very beginning of our venue search (1.5 years ago), the Lehmann truly stood out from other venues we looked at in the Chicago and Milwaukee area. Not only is the property absolutely amazing, but the people who work there make things extra special and made the planning process 100x more enjoyable. Jay in particular was our point of contact throughout the entire wedding process, and from the very beginning he was always so communicative and helpful. Something truly priceless is being able to find vendors who make the wedding planning process less stressful. Jay was consistently so responsive to my questions and last minute updates. We had so many compliments on our venue choice, I would choose the Lehmann Mansion over anything a hundred times over.”

“Here is my belated review for an intimate backyard dinner party for 9 from this past Labor Day. I worked with Emily, who was incredible and made the whole process so easy breezy beautiful. With Emily's guidance, we curated a meal based on different menus from past events for inspiration. We ended up with a charcuterie board for my family to snack on before sitting down for dinner. The meal was a plated poached pear salad with bread before a family style dinner of flank steak, salmon, potato gratin and asparagus. We also did some petite sweets for dessert. We did a combo of rentals (linens and plates) and used some of our own glassware and platters. We also provided our own booze, which saved on cost. Full disclosure, this wasn't cheap. I knew that going in and thought it was 100% worth the cost to have an elegant, peaceful dinner with my family. The food was delicious (complements to the chef!) and Barbara and Robert (the on-site staff) were lovely. They set up in my garage and cooked everything on site. Plus my spouse had to clean out the garage beforehand to make space so that was an added bonus. Overall everything went so smoothly from the deliveries to the meal itself. One thing I was pleasantly surprised about was the set-up and clean-up. They pretty much cleaned my kitchen even though they didn't use it and packaged up and put away all the food (including the chicken nuggets that I made the kiddos who did not sit down to dinner with us). Would definitely recommend Catering by Michaels!”

“I am a wedding photographer based in Chicago and I have had the pleasure of photographing two weddings here at The Armour House so far. It is probably my favorite venue around! From the detail in the architecture to the gorgeous grounds, this is such a photogenic venue. The staff is also so kind and helpful and the food is amazing! I have added some photos from my last wedding there for reference. - Samuel | The Gernands Photography”
