Explore romantic rustic wedding venues in Chicago

Urban and suburbanites looking for a delightful departure from concrete and cars should consider a rustic wedding. That means lofty wooden barns with mason jars, tractors, grass, and plenty of natural light. Your guests are bound to enjoy the themes rustic weddings can take. And many venues thoughtfully provide fresh cut flowers, include rocking chairs for outdoor contemplation, and even experiences with farm animals (if they are working farms or vineyards). Barn weddings can be as intimate as you wish, with just enough space for immediate family and a few friends of honor. Or they can be affairs for hundreds, seated in massive barns deep in the Illinois countryside. What sort of rustic wedding venue are you looking for?

Unique rustic wedding venues in the Chicago suburbs

Norfolk Farm & Estate is a wedding venue in Oswego, IL. Rolling pastures with lush green grass are the first thing you see. Once you enter the site mature trees, manicured gardens, and a barn that seats up to 300 guests grace your view. The spacious, romantic character makes it one of the best rustic wedding venues in the Chicago suburbs. Other venues in Rockford, Princeton, and DeKalb offer historic surroundings, a lofty ambience, and a more nature-focused backdrop for your wedding.

Discover green wedding venues in Chicago

A lush garden, greenhouse, or cultivated botanical space is a timeless classic for weddings. Chicago's two seasons are "hot" and "frozen" but thanks to the efforts of local gardeners you can enjoy blooms and leaves any time of the year. The Chicago Botanic Garden is a wedding hotspot, offering services in the Rose Garden, drinks and dancing under the McGinley Pavilion, and space for your guests to wander and enjoy the blossoms. Want to get away from the noise and hustle of downtown? The Herrington Inn & Spa in Geneva, IL, has the dual advantage of being a garden AND waterfront wedding venue. Located alongside the Fox River, up to 60 rooms are available for guests to relax. Those who enjoy walking will love the several acres of green countryside along the inn's grounds. Make sure to look into the plants in season at each green wedding venue. Themes like autumn, harvests, spring blooms, summer fullness, and the calm of winter will all play into the feel of your wedding. And as a once-in-a-lifetime event it pays to think carefully before committing.
