Venues & Event Spaces in Wheaton, IL

“Beautiful park with space for all. In addition the First Division museum is located on site as well and if you go to one, make sure you see them both. Lots of history and just a great way to spend the afternoon anytime of year. Plenty of parking and restrooms.”

“I cannot speak highly enough of the value of this museum.It is extremely inexpensive for the amount you receive.We got there at 1:00 and only walked through half by 2:30 and it closed at 3:00.We could have taken much longer but we started to realize that it was getting close.There is so much good information You literally have to stay at each section for 15 minutes or so to just really grasp the greatness of the sacrifice of these people.I can't wait to go see this again.Any pictures that anyone takes is only a minuscule version of what it's actually like to be in that space.It is completely immersive with war sounds in the background and tanks in front of you and pictures and maps and artifacts.I have two public folders on my Facebook account (RoseAnn Melcarek) that are for Cantigny if you want to see more pictures.”

“This is an amazing post with even more amazing people. My family needed assistance and this post and everyone, literally everyone showed up. As a veteran, a single mother, and a person of color, I have never felt love like this from ANY Veteran Organization, and I want to thank all of the members and guests that supported myself and my family during our hardship. We walked in with hope and walked out with a new family. If you are a Veteran that needs help, please come to this post, literally anyone who is there will point you in the right direction. Thank you again Post 2164 and thank you for accepting my family into your family. You all deserve all the goodness this world has to offer. I pray your Post continues to grow and prosper.”

“Cantigny is a beautiful and expansive park in Wheaton, which includes a very nice golf course, with a pro shop and a clubhouse restaurant called the Red Oak Room. The only time I have visited this establishment was for my niece's wedding reception two years ago. The private banquet/event space and the grounds around it are stunning. But the food and service was even better. I think it was the best wedding reception I've ever been to. With around 150 people, the space was laid out with room to spare so it felt luxurious and not at all cramped. There was a bar with excellent bartenders, room for the dance floor to remain empty so no tables had to be removed after dinner. And the food! Guests had a choice from 3 entrees - filet mignon, salmon and chicken. Not easy to offer 3 different meals and get them all done perfectly. Both a soup course and salad were served (after the cocktail hour which had a variety of tray-passed hors d'oeuvres). The filet was at least 7 ozs of pure perfection with accompanying potato and veg. Champagne was poured for a toast and a choice of red or white wine was served throughout dinner. A wonderful dessert buffet was served in addition to the wedding cake. The service was also perfection capped off with coffee service with really delicious coffee. The wait staff was very pleasant and professional and made sure the dining experience was stellar for each and every guest. A great DJ had the crowd dancing for hours and later in the night, more food - Chicago pizza and Italian beef sandwiches with all the fixings for anyone who wasn't still stuffed from dinner and served with to go boxes to take some with you if you were still too full. It was a very nice venue with wonderful food and service - it was perfect in every way!”

“We had our daughter's bridal shower here, and I can't say enough good things about Olivia and her team. Olivia listened, really listened, to my vision for the shower and made sure the day went just like we had hoped. It was perfect! We were in the Clocktower Room which felt so comfortable and inviting. It was beautiful overlooking the golf course, and we loved having the little balcony to hang out in too. The food was delicious and several people commented on how good everything was. The servers were so attentive and helpful throughout the entire time. The whole day couldn't have gone any better and it's absolutely due to the Arrowheard staff. Everyone was so wonderful to work with. Thank you again for everything you all did to make our day so special!!”
