Amazing venue! Highly recommend this venue for weddings. I found this venue on the Knot and when we saw the photos of the place, we knew that this was an amazing place. Then when we got there and met the staff, we signed our paperwork immediately. The staff is amazing both from the restaurant and for the wedding. All of the staff treat their guests like family and friends. They remembered our faces and our names. Beata was amazing as an event coordinator. She was great for communication before the meeting and the day of. We unfortunately were one of the weddings hoping to get married in a vineyard but due to a downpour in October we needed to switch to an indoor ceremony. Despite changing this decision to the absolute last minute we could, the whole staff was amazing through it making sure that everyone was on the same page. In addition, the place is just stunning overall, both indoors and outdoors. We also rented the house attached to the property and that was wonderful to have for ourselves and our bridal party. If you want an all-in-one place, I highly recommend this place. We continue to get phone calls from our family and friends about how much they loved the venue because of food, scenery and staff.

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of having our dream wedding at Acquaviva Winery, and we could not be happier with the entire experience. From the moment we set foot on the property, we were enchanted by the venue's beauty and the professionalism of the staff.The outdoor ceremony in the vineyard was undoubtedly the highlight of our wedding. The lush green vineyard rows created a natural and breathtaking backdrop for our vows, enhancing the romantic atmosphere. The serene sounds of the breeze rustling through the vines made it an unforgettable setting that left a lasting impression on our guests and provided beautiful photographs to cherish.The venue aesthetics for the reception includes stunning interior design, with its exquisite paintwork and high ceilings. Another remarkable aspect of the reception hall was its spacious layout. We had approximately 200 guests in attendance, and there was more than enough room to comfortably accommodate everyone. The bar area was well-designed and well-stocked, making it a popular spot for our guests to mingle and enjoy their favorite beverages. The dance floor was generously sized, allowing for plenty of space for our guests to dance the night away. Another highlight would be the food at Acquaviva Winery was nothing short of extraordinary. The menu was diverse and exquisitely prepared, with both hors d'oeuvres and the main course receiving rave reviews from our guests. The wine selection was top-notch, perfectly complementing the meal. The culinary expertise on display was truly remarkable.And the most special part of the experience was working with Beata and the events team. Throughout the planning process, Beata and the events team at Acquaviva Winery were a joy to work with. Their attention to detail and prompt communication made the planning process smooth and stress-free. Beata was always available to answer our questions, provide guidance, and offer creative suggestions. She truly understood our vision and worked tirelessly to ensure that every aspect of our wedding was executed flawlessly.In conclusion, Acquaviva Winery is a gem of a wedding venue, offering a delightful combination of delectable cuisine, stunning aesthetics, breathtaking vineyard views, and a dedicated team. Our wedding day was everything we had ever dreamed of, thanks to Acquaviva. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect venue to celebrate our special day, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone in search of a truly magical wedding experience.

Wedding day ended up being perfect and the vineyard outside was beautiful! We ended up having a band and all our guests had a great rime. Communication was lacking the month before the wedding which made the week of the wedding more stressful. I wish we could have heard back sooner with our questions so we could have reached out to our vendors quicker. Besides the lack of communication the wedding was perfect and I wouldn’t change anything!

My husband and I got married in July of 2023. Our reception was at Acquaviva Winery. This winery is incredible. We stumbled upon it while browsing on the knot, and I’m glad we did. We wanted something different than your traditional banquet or barn wedding. The food is AMAZING. Our guests were infatuated with the food, and the space. Weeks later we are still receiving comments about how amazing everything was. Beata was the coordinator that I worked with and no surprise here, she was amazing! She is very organized, and is great with communication. She will do everything to help you on the day and before the wedding to make sure everything is ready to go. Her kindness and positive energy was everything we needed when meeting with her to discuss all of the details. Overall, our day was majestic and we couldn’t be more in love with our venue choice. We are hoping to come back every year for an anniversary dinner.

We got married at Acquaviva in June of 2023 and everything was PERFECT. We mostly worked/communicated with Beata for the duration of our planning and for our day-of coordinator and she was amazing. Communication of every little detail was very much appreciated and made planning so easy if you were clueless on how to plan a wedding like I was. We ate dinner at Acquaviva in December of 2021 and after seeing the inside and tasting their amazing food that we just had to choose them for our venue. It’s been a month since we got married there now and our guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed the night. We got married in the vineyard and it was so beautiful. They had a landscaping crew taking care of the land the morning of the wedding and everything looked so perfect for our day. Also added bonus is getting to see where they make the wine and photos in the barrel room turned out so beautiful! 10/10 would recommend Acquaviva to anyone looking for a venue to be married in!

Acquaviva was an easy 5 star for us. They have the most beautiful venue. As a former bride, I know how important/stressful it can be going for an outdoor venue. This venue has a unbelievably beautiful backup plan and allow you to decide as close to last minute as possible. Luckily the weather was perfect but the piece of mind means everything leading up to the big day. We are still getting raving reviews of their food from our guests weeks after the wedding. The fillet and whitefish are to die for! They include so much in their initial minimum (open bar, appetizers, wine during dinner, salad, pasta, main dishes, dessert bar) but also have awesome upgrades available! Some that we utilized that I think were so worth it was: -extended cocktail hour (more time for pictures too!) -upgraded bar options -upgraded dessert bar -wine bar at vineyard ceremony -champagne toast -meal choice for guests -late night pizza One of the things I love best is that my husband and I can come back to eat at our reception venue for years to come to celebrate our marriage and the most amazing day/night we had there. All of this and to top it off their staff was amazing! Family owned and it shows in the best way. Easy going, accommodating, and flexible. A million thank yous to them for making our day so perfect for us.

It made for a perfect weekend spent with our closest family. Anything we needed while staying at the guest house they had maintenance staff on call if needed. The day of our wedding went very smooth without any unexpected issues. Beata was there to coordinate every step of the day which helped us stay on time. They also worked well with our DJ, photographers and videographers, bakery, Pastor, florist and decor venders. Our guests complimented the quality of the food and wine, in fact many of our guests purchased bottles of wine at the end of the evening. I am so glad we chose Acquaviva as our wedding venue and look forward to hosting futures events there!

Really just not enough great things to say about our wedding process with Acquaviva. From day one, walking in to the place we were sold (after speaking with 76 vendors and looking at 4 others in person). The beauty of the place is honestly jaw-dropping. Their ability to combine elegance and comfort is impeccable. BUT the people!!!!! Just. Wow. Every tasting, every visit, every dinner, every single time we were at Acquaviva we were treated like family. The staff (Aubrey, Audrey, Nancy, Vito and so many others) are just absolutely amazing. I did not have a wedding planner or coordinator and this was no issue at all. They decorated for us on our big day, put our timeline together for us, and spoke with all of our vendors. We did not have to do anything the days leading up to our wedding. I cannot emphasize enough how good the food is. So many people have told us it was the best food they have ever had in their lives, let alone wedding food. We have been told by almost everyone that attended (200 people) that our wedding was the best they had ever been to. That was truly because of Acquaviva, their service, their food quality, their sincerity, and their recommended vendors (shoutout SNP DJ’s - GO WITH THEM!!!!). Our wedding day was the best day of our lives. If we had it anywhere other than Acquaviva, I am not sure it would have been so easy to make that the case. We are so grateful for this place and their people.

Really just not enough great things to say about our wedding process with Acquaviva. From day one, walking in to the place we were sold (after speaking with 76 vendors and looking at 4 others in person). The beauty of the place is honestly jaw-dropping. Their ability to combine elegance and comfort is impeccable. BUT the people!!!!! Just. Wow. Every tasting, every visit, every dinner, every single time we were at Acquaviva we were treated like family. The staff (Aubrey, Audrey, Nancy, Vito and so many others) are just absolutely amazing. I did not have a wedding planner or coordinator and this was no issue at all. They decorated for us on our big day, put our timeline together for us, and spoke with all of our vendors.

The staff was absolutely exceptional. Everyone 's top priority was making the day smooth and stress free. They are flexible and work with your to make your vision happen - some other venues I visited had some silly rules that would have prevented us from customizing our day. The staff was always reachable by phone or email to discuss questions. They were enjoyable to work with and went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect! The food DELICIOUS! Which is no surprise since it's an Italian restaurant! So many compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed their meal. The ceremony space in the vineyard was gorgeous, and the inside of the winery also made for amazing pictures. I loved having our entrances, first dances, and cake cutting in the entryway with the spectacular ceiling. The layout with the bar and head table in the middle made the day seem more intimate!I am so glad that we chose to have our wedding at Acquaviva, the entire experience from our first visit, to our tasting, to our planning meeting, to the actual day was amazing!

My bridesmaids slept there with me the night before and the bridal party slept there after the wedding. It was the perfect place to get ready on the day of.Through out the process, Acquaviva staff communicated promptly with me, we had the most fun tasting, and we met with one of the owners for our final details meeting. When our wedding coordinator (outside vendor) was late, Acquaviva staff stepped in to start setting up our centerpieces. At the end of the night, we hadn’t gotten any dessert and the staff packaged up 2 cannolis for the groom & I to go. It was above and beyond (and I have high expectations!) I can’t recommend Acquaviva enough.

We cannot rave enough about our experience with Acquaviva and Suzanne! Our November wedding of ~130 was absolutely phenomenal and all our guests raved about the venue being so naturally gorgeous and unique (not just a giant, empty banquet hall). Our ceremony was in the winery atrium and felt so intimate with our lighted lanterns, fall floral arrangements, and family members seated comfortably around us. The reception was elegant and formal and the servers were all so professional - but it also felt like a relaxed and fun environment in that same vein. It honestly couldn't have been more perfect all around. Suzanne and her team are truly experienced with wedding planning and hosting large events - they made our party of ~130 seem easy. Suzanne also made the entire planning experience SO smooth - we felt like it was too good to be true. Her regular check-ins, meetings, and forms helped streamline everything. She had suggestions for any vendor we needed, and many of them we used. The entire day was so perfect and I would choose Acquaviva over and over again. Thank you for everything!!

Everyone always tells you that if you're planning an event, it's all about the food, the drinks, and a good time! Hands down, Acquaviva Winery has it all for a wedding. Our wedding was booked in February 2019 for August 2020. The booking process was easy - their Events Manager, Suzanne, was so easy to work with, responded within 24 hours generally, and always made sure to relay every detail we would need to know. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic we had to postpone our wedding to May 2021. With all of the emotions and frustrations we were experiencing, how Acquaviva handled the reschedule process reassured us that we made the right decision booking with them. Suzanne went above and beyond to make sure we got the best reschedule date that would work for us and reassured us that our big day would be just the same as if it hadn't been rescheduled. AND IT WAS! Our guests and family still rave about how amazing our reception was. The food was AMAZING - it was a delicious, true Italian cuisine with huge dinner size portions (none of that \"smaller portions\" you sometimes get at event halls). The set up of the restaurant is a bit weird but we chose the right DJ to make sure sound got across the whole venue (Spin N Play - ask for Ron). The bartenders made sure to keep our specialty drink just how we asked for it. And the coordinators and servers/head servers did everything to help set up, take down, and make our guests comfortable. While Acquaviva might be a bit off the beaten path, the distance and time it took to get there was well worth our amazing experience having our wedding day there. We will continue to go there for dinners and to buy our favorite wines.

Our wedding vision came true at Acquaviva - it will be a part of our anniversary celebrations and milestones.

Suzanne and her team (and the whole staff!!) made our day absolutely phenomenal. We had many questions as we planned and they were helpful, prompt, communicative, flexible, all the things you want in someone you’re working with on such an important day!! Our wedding day was everything we could have wanted it to be and we only have good things to say about the entire experience. Planning, visiting, tasting, execution-all of it was just so wonderful. We are so grateful and cannot recommend them enough! If we could do it again we wouldn’t change a thing.

Tracy and I had our wedding at Acquaviva Winery on Memorial Day weekend, 2021. The venue is perfect, the weather was amazing and the ceremony in the Vineyard is something truly unique. We also rented the guest house for out family to stay in before/after the event.The reception hall is beautiful from the entryway, to the barrel room and it was all immaculately decorated. Suzanne Read and her crew did an incredible job of preparing and setting every table. Throughout the meal and the entire day, Suzanne was like a battlefield general making sure every last thing including special requests was handled flawlessly. As dinner was served she personally inspected every plate to ensure it was correct as her team was setting it out.We received compliments all day long, all evening and for weeks afternoon Acquaviva Winery. If you want a beautiful venue to get married in, incredible food, amazing deserts, and of course spectacular wine, do not hesitate for a moment to check out Acquaviva. It is truly unique.

Food, wine, service, scenery, and atmosphere is amazing. Suzanna and her team are a dream to work with. She is efficient, knowledgeable, organized, and always answers (emails & texts) in a timely matter. Her and the team even made sure my big day ran smoothly and helped out anyway they could. At one point Suzanne went out in the rain to get my balloons from the guest house. My guests had so many complements to give. I have even had several guest return for dinner because it is really just that good! I received some of my pictures and they look phenomenal just because of the venues scenery. This venue was an hour away from where we live, so I was a bit nervous about finding vendors so far away from home. Expect Suzanne already had a preferred (not mandatory) vendor list and they were also fantastic. Acquaviva offers everything you need for your big day. I also recommend renting out the one site house to get ready in and spend the night! I honestly can not say enough good things about this place!!

Acquaviva is a dream come true. This venue has been extremely accommodating though out the entire wedding process. When we first visited the site back in 2019 Suzanne left an everlasting positive impression on us. The only reason we did not select the venue at that time was distance. We were looking for a venue closer to our guests so they would not have to travel far. After rescheduling our wedding several times due to Covid we decided to give Suzanne a call to see if we could be accommodated. Covid -19 became our events blessing in disguise as our wedding was more than we could have ever wish or imagined. Suzanne helped us plan our entire wedding in just a couple of months. During the cocktail hour we were brought appetizers to the awesome bridal room, as we took photos and prepared to line up for announcements. Every staff member bent over backwards for us with organized, professional and impeccable service. Our guests, have been raving about the food and wine. This is not an exaggeration, no overstatements here. In our opinion, you have not lived until you try their food. Several of our family members told us they were purchasing the wine and coming back for dinner on their own. It’s been several weeks and I am still thinking about the mouth watering dishes, and the savory nocchi that we are dying to have the vodka sauce recipe for. The pastries were so so so good. The late night brick oven pizza is the best pizza I have had by far. Even a few of the guests that arrived late were provided top notch service . We absolutely felt like royalty. Aquaviva proved to be a benchmark for service on our wedding day. Beautiful design and care has been placed into every detail of this business. Even the design of the entry door has so much detail and art to it. The grounds are breathtaking. The guest house looking over the winery that we spent the night at was immaculate and gorgeous. The winery is flexible, clean and service oriented. You will not go wrong choosing this winery to host your special day. Our guests are as impressed and happy as we are. We cannot thank Acquaviva Winery enough for making our day so special and amazing, which we will remember and cherish forever.

Our wedding ceremony and reception was held at Acquaviva Winery. The ceremony was held in the vineyard. The wedding went perfectly as planned. The weather was great! All our venders worked well together to create the best wedding day. Working with Suzanne and Brianna was wonderful and easy. They did an amazing job at helping us plan the day and making sure it went smoothly. We had rented out the guest house the night of. The groom, the grooms men and grooms family were able to hang out, have lunch and great ready there. The house worked great for them! The groom and his grooms men went down to the market to have wine, they had great service in the market from Julie!The service during the reception was fantastic. I (the bride) did not realize on of our guest had a dietary restriction. The guest had mentioned to Brianna during dinner and Brianna came back with a different meal for our guest. Our guest was very happy with the service provided. All of our guest raved about the service and the food!! They loved that during dinner the staff would bring more bottles of wine to the table when the bottle at their table was empty! The food was great! It is made to order and delicious.Also, like any wedding, a lot of drinks were spilled on the dance floor. The staff was very attentive and within in seconds they were there to mop it up! This allowed our guest to continue dancing all night long. We had left a lot of the stuff at the winery to pick up the next day. When we went in to grab it Vito was their to greet us. He helped us with gather all of our stuff. We could not thank him enough. He was the best bartender the night of the wedding!! He always provides the best service. We had spent almost 2 years planning our wedding with Acquaviva. Suzanne, Brianna, Vito, Joe, Paul, Julie, and the rest of the Acquaviva staff have become like family! We love to go back for lunch or dinner. Plus we are wine club members so it gives us an excuse to go more often. =)

First off, the venue is absolutely beautiful. The ceremony overlooked the vineyard and the entire property was gorgeous. The layout of the venue was perfect. We had 185 guests, it was spacious enough to where nobody felt crammed but the whole setting still felt intimate. The food was also FANTASTIC! All of our guests have continued to rave about how delicious it was for weeks after the wedding! The best part about Acquaviva was working with Suzanne, the events coordinator. She was so incredibly helpful, responsive and comforting. During the stressful time that is wedding planning, Suzanne answered all of our questions very quickly, met with us about a million extra times and put us at ease with the whole planning process!

We had our wedding on August 17th. I am so happy that I chose Acquaviva for our ceremony and reception site. I remember after doing our venue tour at Acquaviva, I couldn’t stop thinking about it and I knew other places couldn’t compare! We had our ceremony in the vineyard and it was such an amazing site. I worked mainly with Suzanne and Breana. When I first booked the venue Suzanne was the only coordinator. She is fantastic to work with. Then I slowly started working with Breana. Both answered my million questions via email along the way. I worked with Breana during food tasting and rehearsal. Day of was nerve wracking as the weather was drizzling but they assured me it’d be fine either way. Our ceremony ended up being delayed due to our fault in planning the shuttle from hotel to ceremony so we were 40 minutes behind. Breana stayed calm when she spoke to me which settled my nerves. They ended up pushing the cocktail hour 20 minutes so we could have the full hour. I was so happy with how the food turned out and the service. I really could have just sat there and ate all night. Upgrade to the gnocchi- you won’t forget it!! Chicken Vesuvio was great as well! The food was served very timely and no complaints! I would recommend this venue to everyone. I never thought about going anywhere else and I know all of our guests enjoyed the night!

We had our wedding at Acquaviva Winery last month, and the whole experience was outstanding!! We were impressed from our very first meeting with Suzanne last year to the very last minute of our wedding night. Everyone at the winery was kind, personable, and accommodating. While they hold weddings there almost every weekend, they truly made us feel like that weekend was all about us and making our day special. The vineyard and restaurant were beautiful and we got SO many compliments on the food and drinks! The restaurant staff provided exceptional service throughout the entire night. While everyone we interacted with was great, I want to give a special thank you to Suzanne and Samantha. Suzanne was so helpful and professional throughout the entire experience and was one of the biggest reasons we ultimately decided to have our wedding at Acquaviva. While we did not get to meet Samantha until the day of the rehearsal, she was amazing to work with and truly showed a passion for working in this field. She did Whatever she needed to do to help our day run smoothly (including keeping my crazy nieces and nephews entertained and out of the way while we took pictures!) and she did not make us feel stressed about any of it! She was so kind and non judgmental, and we truly appreciated having her there with us for the rehearsal and wedding day. I highly recommend Acquaviva Winery to anyone considering hosting an event there!!

My family and I used to go to Acquaviva for dinners, so when they started doing weddings several years ago, I knew this must be the venue once the time came! We toured other places but nothing came close. From when we first came to tour, to the day after our wedding- the service Acquaviva provides cannot be beat. Suzanne and her team are so incredibly responsive and talented. You truly cannot ask for a better group to help your wedding day run smoothly. We received so many compliments from our guests on how beautiful the venue was, and how good the food was- and of course the wine! Thank you Acquaviva for making our day perfect!

We loved every minute of the planning process with Acquaviva. Suzanne and her team know how to take all the stress off the bridal party. The staff all really cared to get to know us.We looked at many options for our wedding and nothing we looked at in the same price range even came close to being as perfect as Acquaviva is. The elegance of the venue made it easy to not need much decor of our own. The price we were shown during the tour on our first meeting was what we paid. I loved how there was no surprises there.The food and the wine were amazing, we received nothing but compliments from our guests. I highly recommend Acquaviva!

I cannot imagine anywhere else that we could have had our daughter's wedding and would have been more pleased. Acquaviva Winery was the most beautiful venue for this very special occasion. Everything was perfect. Having the ceremony in the vineyard was romantic and very scenic. The restaurant area was magical and the patio area was lit up at night. Our guests commented on how they loved the venue and how different it was from other places. Working with Suzanne was a pleasure. She helped us with all the details and orchestrated the entire day. The food was delicious, the staff were welcoming and the wine...wonderful! I cannot stop looking at the pictures and reminiscing over how happy our daughter and son in law were on their special day!

I am so thankful!The venue itself is beautiful! Our guest loved the outdoor area and the food! A month later and our guests are still talking about how beautiful the venue was. The price may seem like a lot of money, which is it, however, for us it was worth every penny! Acquaviva Winery went above and beyond! They provided us with delicious food the entire night from appetizers to the late night pizza, they made sure everything was exactly how we envisioned the day of, and there was NEVER a time during the entire planning process were I felt there was a lack of communication. Again, I can not stress enough how stress-free they made my wedding day. I would 100% recommend this venue!

From the very beginning stages of planning until the wedding day, Suzanne was there every step of the way. During wedding planning, she is incredibly responsive to e-mails which calmed all of my bride stress. She communicated with all of our vendors so there was nothing to worry about on the wedding day. When our day finally came, Suzanne, Brianna, and the entire staff at Acquaviva went above and beyond to make our wedding day beyond perfection. Having our ceremony in the vineyard truly meant everything to us and although it was raining in the morning, Suzanne was very calming and made sure that it was still held outside. Our guests have not stopped talking about how much they enjoyed our wedding ceremony and reception; everything from the vineyard views to the delicious food and wine at the winery. We could not have picked a more beautiful, elegant, and accommodating venue for our wedding day. Thank you to the entire staff at Acquaviva for making our wedding day our BEST DAY EVER!

We had our wedding here in September and it was beyond any dream come true! Suzanne, Brianna and Joe were amazing to work with. We fell in love with the place the first time we walked into the restaurant and never looked back to try to find something else to beat it as a venue. Suzanne did such an amazing work to make our vision come true, she was there since day one. They all worked great with the other vendors and made sure that everything was set to go for the big day. When our day finally came, it was beyond perfection. If there was a hiccup along the way, we didn't know about it, and in all honesty, we were too busy having fun and taking in the moment to even care about those hiccups! We had rented the pool house from 9am till the ceremony and it was such an amazing place to get ready in. We had also rented the guest house next to the restaurant for the night before and the night of the wedding and it was amazing as well! Our children and parents had plenty of room and it was such a cozy and comfortable place to be before and after the wedding. The night of the wedding, we had asked the staff to save the flowers for us so we can take them to a nursing home in the early morning and they did. It was very sweet of them to do. We always thrive on how businesses offer customer service and Acquaviva did amazing at setting that bar high. Joe, just topped it off with the icing and the cherry on top......you see my car (the bride) had been used by 2 of her daughters and none of them bothered to check the fuel gage. So when Joe told me to move the car to the lower level to get the flowers in my car, I told him that I was embarrassed but I needed the closest gas station, that my car was driving on fumes. He grabbed his phone, called one of his employees and had him bring the 5 gallon gas tank to fill up my car enough to make it to a gas station. That is not only having customer service skills but having a kind heart!Overall, we can't say enough about this place and are in love with the staff, the restaurant and their wine. We look forward to becoming their wine members and are seeking another reason to hold a party here once again. Thank you again for such an amazing, beautiful, dream come true wedding!

By far the best decision I made for our wedding (besides saying yes to my now husband ;)) was choosing Acquaviva Winery as the venue!!! It is such a unique and stunning (a word a lot of our guests used to describe it) place and truly feels romantic every step of the way. You definitely do not feel like you are in Illinois and the scenery of Acquaviva is picturesque. Looking at our wedding pictures now, we are amazed that this place can look even more beautiful than it did in person. The vineyards, bed and breakfast, mansion, the barrel room, and of course the reception site sets the right mood for an elegant, classy, and romantic wedding (again our guests’ words). The FOOD was amazing. A lot of men who didn’t care about the ambiance , absolutely loved the food. They are so accommodating with th menu but really everything was delicious and your guests will leave full. I am gluten intolerant and they, an Italian restaurant, were able to accommodate for me for every course including the past. I also very much appreciated that their vegetables are locally sourced. Between the food and th AMAZING wine, we have had several of our guests go back for more and told us it was just as good as the day of our wedding. Our coordinator Suzanne was organized , timely, and efficient (things I know I needed to help me out). Every person who helped us was too kind (not in a pushy way) and personable from the hostess the day after when we were gathering everything to the son and mom who are the owners helping us make it personal and picking the best wine

I could go on and on about this venue. Every single thing was absolutely perfect for our wedding day. We booked this venue February of 2017, and was married September of 2018. Since the moment we signed, Suzanne and team were more than helpful. They were extremely responsive to all of my requests, overly accomodating to all of our needs, open-minded to things we wanted to change, and all around just the nicest people to deal with. Suzanne, the event coordinator, answered every question, email, etc with promptness and honestly joy. Joe, the general manager, made sure the space and food was perfect, and Brianna, Suzanne's Intern made sure all my guests were where they were supposed to be and just helped keep everything moving throughout the day.We were lucky enough to have a gorgeous day for our vineyard ceremony. I had an uncle who made an archway for us, and Acquaviva was more than willing to let us use my family made one, instead of theirs. The pool house was spacious, and we had more than enough room for a team of makeup artists, hair stylists, and photographers throughout the entire morning. We were not supposed to able to get in the pool house until 11, but I was able to work with Suzanne to get access at 8, and it was perfect. Even if you don't have a vineyard ceremony, you would be amiss to not take advantage of the gorgeous scenery. You forget that the surrounding area is Illinois cornfields. Acquaviva also provides transportation to and from the vineyard for the ceremony. It was such a big help and huge relief that we did not have to worry about trying to explain to our guests how to get there.As for the winery, it was absolutely stunning. The only decorations we had to bring in were center pieces and it was perfect. The ceiling and wall detail make a ton of decorations unnecessary. We also wanted to move the dessert table to a different location than normal, and the staff worked with us to make that happen. We had a large wedding (200+ people), and a live band. The band had complete access prior to the reception to set-up, and were able to play until midnight. We rented the piano for cocktail hour, and everyone loved the little touch. Because of the warm weather, we were able to take advantage of the terrace for those guests who needed a dancing break. During cocktail hour, we put a beer and wine bar on the terrace, and at night we had the option of a fire pit. The venue was perfect for everyone, whether people wanted to drink, dance, or sit outside, it worked for all!The food was absolutely fantastic. I have heard from almost all of my guests that it was by far the best wedding meal they have ever had. I LOVED that Acquaviva had its own restaurant and I didn't have to worry about trying to bring a caterer in. A standard menu is 3 passed appetizers during cocktail hour, a salad, pasta dish, entree with two sides, and they will cut and serve your cake for you. Since we did not have a cake, our meal ended with the entree, but the food was plentiful and fantastic. The bar package included with the meals made things even easier.We were able to drop off all of our decorations, table cards, etc. the Wednesday before the wedding, and as a result, it was so much easier and a lot less stressful for me. The staff made sure all my stuff was where it needed to be, and absolutely nothing was missing.I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone who wants a beautiful wedding with simple execution.

Joe, the general manager, made sure the space and food was perfect, and Brianna, Suzanne's Intern made sure all my guests were where they were supposed to be and just helped keep everything moving throughout the day.We were lucky enough to have a gorgeous day for our vineyard ceremony. I had an uncle who made an archway for us, and Acquaviva was more than willing to let us use my family made one, instead of theirs. The pool house was spacious, and we had more than enough room for a team of makeup artists, hair stylists, and photographers throughout the entire morning. We were not supposed to able to get in the pool house until 11, but I was able to work with Suzanne to get access at 8, and it was perfect. Even if you don't have a vineyard ceremony, you would be amiss to not take advantage of the gorgeous scenery. You forget that the surrounding area is Illinois cornfields. Acquaviva also provides transportation to and from the vineyard for the ceremony. It was such a big help and huge relief that we did not have to worry about trying to explain to our guests how to get there.As for the winery, it was absolutely stunning. The only decorations we had to bring in were center pieces and it was perfect. The ceiling and wall detail make a ton of decorations unnecessary. We also wanted to move the dessert table to a different location than normal, and the staff worked with us to make that happen. We had a large wedding (200+ people), and a live band. The band had complete access prior to the reception to set-up, and were able to play until midnight. We rented the piano for cocktail hour, and everyone loved the little touch. Because of the warm weather, we were able to take advantage of the terrace for those guests who needed a dancing break. During cocktail hour, we put a beer and wine bar on the terrace, and at night we had the option of a fire pit. The venue was perfect for everyone, whether people wanted to drink, dance, or sit outside, it worked for all!The food was absolutely fantastic. I have heard from almost all of my guests that it was by far the best wedding meal they have ever had. I LOVED that Acquaviva had its own restaurant and I didn't have to worry about trying to bring a caterer in. A standard menu is 3 passed appetizers during cocktail hour, a salad, pasta dish, entree with two sides, and they will cut and serve your cake for you. Since we did not have a cake, our meal ended with the entree, but the food was plentiful and fantastic. The bar package included with the meals made things even easier.We were able to drop off all of our decorations, table cards, etc. the Wednesday before the wedding, and as a result, it was so much easier and a lot less stressful for me. The staff made sure all my stuff was where it needed to be, and absolutely nothing was missing.I would recommend this venue to anyone and everyone who wants a beautiful wedding with simple execution.

Suzanne and her team at Acquaviva went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for the BIG DAY. We planned an outdoor ceremony and on the day of our wedding, it rained for the majority of the morning, but because Suzanne and her team knew how important it was that we got married in the vineyard, they regularly checked in with me throughout the day to keep me updated on the conditions. Very happy to report they were open to wishing for the best and setting up the ceremony outside. Happy to report the rain stopped for the 5 pm ceremony and started again, only a few minutes after it was over. It was literally perfect! A HUGE thanks to Suzanne and her team for taking a leap of faith to make our day so incredible :)

Acquaviva is the most beautiful site in suburbs of Chicago! I contacted them right after our engagement and Joe, owners son, met with us right away with no appointment. He took the time to discuss the packages and details. No question in my mind I knew this was the place! After booking we were turned over to Suzanne, our planner. Words cant express how on top this woman is! She answered any email promptly. Left no detail out during the planning process. Come the day she knocked it out of the park! Timing between our ceremony in the vineyard and back to the reception across the street was spot in. She was so personable during the day checking on us as we were finishing getting ready. Then after our couples photos she took the time to bring my husband and I our own appetizers and wine to enjoy together before the party began. I just cant say enough..thank you Suzanne and AcquaViva! My fairytale came true! And not to mention the food is high quality and not typical of most weddings! All our guests were pleased!

Acquaviva Winery was all we could have asked for and more! Working with Suzanne and her team was a dream come true. Everything was SO organized, thought through, anticipated, and planned so well. As the bride, I did not have to worry about a single thing on my wedding day. All of our guests were so impressed with the venue. From the INCREDIBLE shuttles to the vineyard, to opening that beautiful wooden door into the reception, to eating the delicious food and drinking their wine - everything was superb. We had SO many comments from our guests about how delicious the food was and they felt like they were in California since vineyards are seriously lacking in IL. All in all we had a wonderful experience and would recommend to anyone!

Beautiful venue. We had our wedding in February inside. Unfortunately many of our pictures did not turn out at all b/c of low lighting but this is partly our amateur photographers fault for not using proper equipment. But be aware you need a photographer who knows what they're doing and can work with low lighting. Food was excellent. Communication with the coordinator was subpar. Many details we did not get until the very last minute which made things more stressful for us. We decided to use their rental house next door for our wedding night and we greatly regretted it. We had a very early morning flight and got little sleep due to the train going by every hour and waking us up. Then at 11pm, an alarm clock in the next bedroom went off for an hour straight! The room was locked. Had to call them and waited an hour for someone to get there to turn it off.

ACQUAVIVA IS AMAZING! From the first time we walked into Acquaviva, I knew it was the right fit. My now husband was worried about the u-shape and guests not being able to see, but it was not an issue at all! Our wedding was over this past weekend, and we have gotten so many compliments at how beautiful our wedding was! It truly was a fairytale venue. Suzanne answered any and all questions (trust me there were a lot!). I had the girls get ready at the pool hall due to my home being too far from our ceremony. I cannot wait to see how beautiful the pictures will be because of the breathtaking views near the vineyard! The food came in quality and quantity that night. THE FOOD IS AMAZING HERE!We opted to do the late night snack of pizza as well. For an added surprise, we did a fireworks display through Acquaviva to surprise our guests, and it was absolutely breathtaking! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this venue! We will definitely be coming here for date night in the near future!!!!
