Illinois-Chicago

New here and I need venue help!!!!

The FI and I are trying to decide between 2 venues and would really love opinions on both!    They are The Stonegate in Hoffman Estates and The Schaumburg Marriott.
Have anyone gotten married or been to a wedding at either?? I would really love your opinions!
Thanks!!!

    have you toured at both of these places? My fiance and I just went to both of them last saturday, and both seemed really nice, but the carpeting at the marriott was just too loud for us to see past. it was a bright red/gold, and it would totally clash with our colors (blue/green). however, i think the marriott's prices were a bit cheaper than stonegate.
    Happily married since 9/1/2012!

    Hi!  I have not been to either venue, but I just wanted to mention that there's a thread that's almost at the bottom of the first page that has Stonegate in the title (I am awful at remembering post/thread titles).  There's a few reviews on it in that thread.  Just thought I'd mention in case you hadn't seen it.  Good luck!

    @KellyCatalo--- Yes, we toured both places. Agreed on the carpet at the Marriott! Yikes! But we love that they only host one wedding a night, unlike at the Stonegate.
    @Sheikscorpio88--- I've heard that too! Thanks!
    @TEA&Co-- I hadn't seen it but I will go check it out now! Thank you so much!

    My wedding will be at The Stonegate this Saturday, will post reviews afterwards. Thus far no issues with Stonegate staff, the tasting was unbelievable and I am really looking forward to the big day. Good luck to you ladies!

    The W City Center is really nice! Also, there if you are new in the area, you might be interested in attending this bridal show there on October 3 from 4-8. You can check out the venue, as well as meet other vendors in the wedding industry in Chicago. Let me know if you want to attend, so I can give you this code they sent me for 2 free tickets

    I had a friend that just went to a wedding at Stonegate a couple weeks ago and she said it was really nice and the food was pretty good
