Elizabeth Birch worked with us to helped us achieve the perfect wedding of our dreams. From the beautifully landscaped ceremony, photo, and reception spaces, to the outstanding food and service, there was no detail overlooked. Elizabeth helped us coordinate the entire wedding long-distance. I was in Florida, and the bride was in Chicago. But with her guidance, we were able to coordinate the local vendors needed to pull off a dream wedding.

My new husband and I were thrilled with our experience at Ivy House Venue! Our coordinator Chloe was absolutely amazing and was there every step of the way keeping us on track. The getting ready suites, venue, and reception spaces were beautiful. Chloe made sure we had food, drink, and ample time to get ready and take photos. She contributed so much to making our wedding day perfect - she made sure everything flowed smoothly so we could relax and enjoy our special moments.
