About

On WeddingWire since 2021

The Arbory Chicago is an industrial-chic wedding venue located in Chicago, Illinois. Nestled in the historic West Town, this 100-year-old lumber warehouse blends vintage charm with contemporary sophistication. The building’s renovation was inspired by turn-of-the-century New Orleans, and the facility now features six sweeping skylights, custom millwork, old Chicago brick, and state-of-the-art amenities. Murals painted by local artists adorn the interior and exterior, bringing a curated and one-of-a-kind feel to the space. Just minutes from the Loop, Logan Square, and O’Hare International Airport, the property is centrally located in the heart of the urban metropolis. Take a tour to experience the elegant, refined, and spacious setting in which you can make timeless memories with all your loved ones.

Facilities and Capacity
When you enter The Arbory Chicago, you will be greeted by breathtaking exposed brick walls and natural light, which filters in from the skylights above. To the left you will find a get-ready en-suite, where you can prepare for the festivities and enjoy champagne with your wedding party. This area also features a staging area and a fully equipped prep kitchen. To your right is an aisle that leads to the ceremony location. Custom doorways and lush drapery open from this spot to the dreamy reception banquet hall, which is draped with Italian café lights and can accommodate 200 guests. This convenient setup avoids a room flip and allows for flexibility when decorating each phase of your celebration. The reception area, "skylight room" comes with two bars, lounge furniture to seat 6, gender-neutral bathrooms, and plenty of room for dining and dancing late into the night.

Perfect venue for our wedding

We recently hosted our wedding at the Arbory and it was absolutely perfect! The venue is gorgeous and Shay and the team are so helpful. Shay worked with us throughout the entire process and was super responsive and helpful whenever we had questions. Definitely recommend the Photo Booth! It’s so fun to see the pictures post event too :)
The space is truly stunning!!

Incredible venue and professional staff

The Arbory is located in a convenient-to-reach but not too crowded neighborhood, West Town. The venue is very beautiful, and incorporates plants seamlessly and naturally as per its namesake. It is also fairly priced. The staff are very professional and responsive, providing a great tour as well as a detailed walkthrough before the wedding day!
We loved working with them, and our guests all commented on how amazing the venue was. Highly recommended.

Gorgeous venue!

The Arbory is absolutely gorgeous, and the staff are lovely. We consistently received prompt replies to any email questions we sent over. From touring, to booking, to day of, everything was seamless and easy! The venue itself is absolutely beautiful, and the greenery and lounge furniture are such nice touches. Having tables and chairs through the venue is also a huge benefit. The murals on the walls make gorgeous photo backdrops. There is currently construction on the road, so you can’t park right in front of the venue, but there is free street parking right around the corner, and none of our guests had any issues. Overall, the Arbory is a phenomenal venue!
