Chicago Gaelic Park Reviews
Sarah Small(other)4 out of 5 Rating
Gaelic Park is such a hidden gem of the southwest suburbs of Chicago. Renate was such a pleasure to work with as she has done this a few times before! She was very communicative and helpful starting the process of picking Gaelic Park as our venue. It does go silent for a while after you book as there is not much to do, but if I had any questions the Banquet team would always be happy to answer them throughout the process. Once it got closer to our wedding day there were times we had to follow up a few times to get an answer, but we did stop by in person and Renate walked us through all of the final touches. We were able to drop our reception items off early and the banquet team takes care of the rest for you, which is amazing and one less worry. When providing instructions on how you want centerpieces, welcome table, memory table, etc., setup be as specific as possible. There is no such thing as too much detail to provide. At the end of the night you don't have to worry about grabbing your items (minus your gifts and any sentimental items) as the banquet team cleans up and packages everything up for you to pick up the next day, one less worry on the day of. Overall, our experience with Gaelic Park was great. We did have some bumps in the road, but Renate was so great to work with and made everything right. We would recommend having your big day at Gaelic Park! Reviewed on 28-11-2023

Bill and Renate were so helpful and accommodating answering any questions we had through the planning process. Our wedding reception on 11/18 went off without a hitch and the venue was super accommodating to the various dietary needs of our guests and the setup and takedown of our decorations/table settings etc. We had so many compliments from guests and cannot recommend Gaelic enough as a wedding venue.

We attended a wedding on October 13, 2023. The ceremony was onsite. Although it rained that day, the covered patio was beautiful with the garden chairs and the lights. It stopped raining long enough for us to get some fantastic photos! The food and service were outstanding all night long! Renate and Bill were always available to answer any questions during the planning process! Reviewed on 13-11-2023

Chicago Gaelic Park surpassed our expectations. From the first time we met with Renata, we knew this would be a great experience. When we entered the Celtic room, it was a dream come true. The back lighting was beautiful, the staff was accommodating and friendly, food (filet mignon) was delicious, hot and cooked perfectly. Renata, Melody and Bill did so much to make this perfect. Before and after party was at carriage Pub onsite. Fun, live music, server Kathi is the best. Food was very good as well. Total perfect experience 10+. Thank you for a beautiful day.

Ryan McGuire(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 05-11-2022 If you're getting married anywhere in the Chicagoland area, I HIGHLY recommend Chicago Gaelic Park. From the very first moment we met with the wedding coordinator, we were sold. Chicago Gaelic Park has been hosting successful weddings for decades, and the expertise is apparent immediately. Our minds were at ease throughout the entire wedding planning process. Chicago Gaelic Park worked seamlessly with our vendors, and they took off all of the pressure of having to coordinate logistics between our vendors, especially as the day approached. The staff was absolutely incredible, and the drinks and food were outstanding (especially the cream of chicken and rice soup, which was a HUGE hit). We could not have been more thrilled with the outcome of our wedding reception. Our guests continue to highly compliment Chicago Gaelic Park, even to this day. I will continue to recommend this venue to any couple that I know who are venue-shopping for the rest of my life. Thank you, Chicago Gaelic Park, for your exemplary service to make our day incredibly special. I'll never forget it. Reviewed on 28-12-2022
SiobhĂĄn Mulvey(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 05-11-2022 Chicago Gaelic Park is THE BEST venue in the southwest suburbs. They are an all inclusive venue providing superb kitchen service, full bar, serving staff, and coordinating staff. They are able to provide both indoor and outdoor options for a ceremony and/or reception. One of my favorite features, that was a big hit at our wedding, is the pub inside Gaelic Park as an after party spot for guests or during the summer, the new outdoor beer garden! The food is incredible, and the staff is timely at serving and the food is HOT and not overdone when it is served. I had over 360 people at our wedding, and there was no complaint from anyone about cold or dry food that can sometimes be common with big weddings. Gaelic Park has been in the wedding business for many decades, and they have a list of vendors in the area they recommend that made planning easier for us. They were accommodating to our requests we specifically had for our day. They are trustworthy to set up the venue space with decorations or center pieces with the provided guidance and items dropped off ahead of time. There are two hotels commonly used within 15 minutes of Gaelic Park for out of town guests as well. If you are looking for a traditional, elegant, flexible venue with both indoor and outdoor options, do not hesitate to reach out to Chicago Gaelic Park! Reviewed on 13-12-2022
Amber Collevy(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 16-07-2022 From start to finish, we had a flawless and incredible experience. They Gaelic park team was very hands on and more than helpful throughout our wedding planning journey! We were also able to use our own vendors to elevate the space & add our own personal touch. The food and drinks were also INCREDIBLE. We have had almost everyone tell us this was the best wedding they have ever been to. Planning a 400 person wedding can be stressful but thanks to GP we were able to fully execute our vision without any complications. 10/10 would recommend.

Kaitlin Hobbs(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 23-07-2022 Gaelic Park was the perfect spot for us to hold our wedding. We had a large guest list and wanted everyone to fit comfortably in one space. The Emerald Room was beautiful and perfect for our reception. Renate was very forthcoming and knowledgeable about planning our reception. She answered all of our questions and offered great ideas. Renate and her team also decorated our space just as I would have done- they also had everything boxed up the next morning for us to pick up so we didn't have to worry about anything! We liked GP because the party didn't stop when the reception was over, most of our guests hung out at the pub afterward. We decided to do our photos outside and they turned out amazing.

Danielle Rankovich(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-05-2022 Gaelic Park was so great! They are extremely accommodating and everything was so affordable. They want you to have a great day without any stress or issues. There are no hidden fees and a lot is included in the price. While Gaelic Park is not as \"trendy\" as many other venues these days, they are an \"old school\" place that wants to help you throw a fun party. Your guests won't remember the venue but will remember how much fun they had at Gaelic Park! Don't worry that there are 2 rooms at the venue--they do a great job at keeping them separate.

Wedding Planners for 2020-2021 Stay Away!Booked a October 2020 venue and had to cancel due to covid unfortunately. Attempted to call venue to speak with the person who set us up, only to wait on hold and told she no longer works here. Transferred to someone else who would was not prepared and said we would not get the deposit back. Referenced contract clause regarding cancellations in this pandemic and was given half ass responses. Decided it was better to eat the money down then to deal with these people any more. In addition, prior to covid disruptions, staff was extremely unprofessional throughout the process. However, we booked 10k + for the event and our family had been to venue before so we wanted to make the best of it. After signing a contract, we heard nothing months later in terms of next steps, day of planning, food options, logistics etc. I figured no big deal theyâre probably busy, weâll reach out and coordinate. They were very unresponsive to calls and emails. When we followed up via email again, a different representative ignored or missed our questions and asked if âwe wanted a tour!â I honestly had to laugh out loud. We just signed a contract and you donât even have us on file? After explaining we had already booked a date and expressed concern if our date was never booked, the original rep then followed up without apologizing and skirted over questions and said we were still booked as planned. In summary, this is by far one of the most unprofessional businesses I have interacted with. The refusal to refund a deposit during a pandemic was the icing on the cake. Iâve written two google reviews in my life, but just could not let this go unspoken of. If youâre planning a wedding here or thinking to, would highly advise against having it here. Iâve been to 3 weddings here before and it was nice. But its not the same staff, maybe theres new management? You donât need any added stress in planning and weâve found many other small businesses willing to help us. Theyâll help you too. Good luck! Reviewed on 28-06-2020

We worked with Lorraine and Renata, and they were absolutely amazing! I called and went in so many times with questions, and they were both very patient and made sure everything was set up exactly how I envisioned it on the wedding day. They made me feel so valued and cared for. The room was set up beautifully, and the food was great! They were very accommodating to the many food allergies our guests had. Everything went smoothly, and Renata and Lorraine handled everything so I was able to just enjoy the night. When we went back the next day to gather our decorations and such, they had already organized everything neatly so all we had to do was pick it up. The price is affordable, and the venue is stunning. Our wedding was in the Tara Room which was perfect for outdoor pictures near the waterfall. Thank you, Gaelic Park, for giving us the wedding of our dreams! Reviewed on 08-05-2020
Jen OâHara(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-12-2019 When deciding on our venue, we were limited on locations due to the size of our wedding. With 408 guests that attended our reception, Gaelic Park exceeded our expectations! The planning process with Sharon was easy and smooth. The week of planning with organizing vendors was again, easy and smooth. We were amazed that with a large wedding, every single persons food was warm and not one table was waiting longer than another to be served. I was nervous that the dance floor would be tight with having 40 tables and there was more than enough space for dance and party. The stage was absolutely perfect for our live band, The Walkins, with plenty of space for them.

We were able to make decisions on EVERYTHING in the room space and they have so many options -- definitely something for everyone. Throughout the entire process, we were guided in the right direction and always felt like they were helping to make OUR day the best day ever. The day of -- I don't even know what to say.

Leading up to the wedding, I called quite a few times with last minute questions and requests, and never once did I feel judged, or that I was annoying the busy banquet department. Renate and Lorraine organized and facilitated the ceremony, set up the reception room (to a tee!), touched base with us multiple times throughout the reception to make sure we had everything we needed, and were having the best time. They broke down the entire reception room and had it all on a cart waiting for us the next day. The Tara Room was gorgeous, the food was delicious (and plentiful!), and the staff was OVERLY accommodating. I can't speak highly enough about our experience.

Sharon and Loraine were so accommodating, professional, and made sure everything was going smoothly. The fact that they set up your decorations for you and you can drop them off the day before is worth booking with them. Other venues allow you to include services for additional fees.

This venue has a large dining menu, great drink selection, four banquet halls, an Irish pub, a bridal suite and great support. Something that I thought was great was that they allowed any dessert to be brought in; my cousin has a baking business and she made us cupcakes.

John Allen(groom)2 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 18-11-2018 Gaelic Park was what we believed to be a quality venue. The staff, specifically Renata, was great to us. She helped coordinate the day and did her best to make sure everything went as planned. The venue was beautiful and the food was complimented on by our guests.The night of the event the garden gate was locked per our photographer so we did not take any pictures outside.The next day is when we received news from numerous guests that one of the bartenders, Ann, was extremely rude to them as she made it seem like an inconvenience to serve some and rolled her eyes at guests for a request as simple as water.We also found out the morning after that our wedding cake was cut and served on the dessert table when it was supposed to be cut and wrapped as we had other desserts for the guests. These directions were clear in the instructions as Marian (Manager) and Renata showed it to us in the paper work the morning after. Due to this, we did not have our wedding cake to have for the following year on our anniversary which highly upset my wife. They did compensate us, but the mistake is one she will forever remember as I believe most brides would/will.We also found that numerous decorative items were missing the morning after when we came to pick them up and a basket full of toiletries and other items were missing which were placed in the ladies bathroom. These items were in the ladies bathroom at the end of the evening after all of our guests departed per several family members including the bride's mother. Gaelic could not provide a reason as to why these items were missing and could only apologize for the missing items. This led us to the conclusion that employees of Gaelic Park either threw the decorations and other items out or stole them. Either instance is absolutely disgusting and became the icing on the cake for our experience here. Not only did we have complaints in the morning, a missing wedding cake, but now we had personnel from an establishment that we trusted in, stealing from our wedding.I again cannot say enough good things about Renata who assisted in our wedding planning at Gaelic Park. However, due to the experience we had, especially pertaining to the missing items, I will not recommend this venue to anyone I know. Being a police officer for eight years, this is not a place were I would recommend my family and friends to celebrate their wedding day after what occurred. Reviewed on 18-09-2017

She met with us and discussed the set up and layout of our wedding which included a few extra elements because it was New Year's Eve, and everything was set up perfectly, all the details were taken care of, and then they packed it all up and put it away for us to pick up another date. It was also beautifully decorated for the Holidays which added something special to the setting. The service and price were wonderful, the food and bar service was excellent, and it was beautifully set up! Definitely recommend - especially working with Colleen! Reviewed on 25-01-2016
Jackie Coffey(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-09-2015 I had my wedding here at the end of September. My wedding night was beautiful, the reception was affordable, food was delicious, and everyone had a great time! I am very appreciative for everything the staff did to make that possible. I just want to mention a few things that I had trouble with because I feel like they would be 5-star worthy with a few improvements!\r\rFrom the time we booked last year, the staff in the banquet department has changed as Jodie is no longer with them. As we got closer to the wedding, we had a VERY hard time getting in touch with anyone to finalize very important details. Many emails, voicemails, and messages left with office staff were left without a response. When we would finally get the chance to speak with someone, they would say \"Let me look into that and get back to you\" and again, we would hear nothing for days. We had to eventually go there in person to get anyone's attention. Usually, we would get the information we needed face-to-face. I do want to note that Gaelic Park was very accommodating and lenient in terms of what you could bring in from the outside and did a great job of making our reception room look pretty by setting up all of the things we brought in. \r\rPLEASE BEWARE: We took most of our things home the night of the wedding, but my brother in law went to Gaelic Park the next morning to pick up anything that was left over, such as leftover favors and centerpiece supplies (mirrors, vase gems, the extra candles and lights that weren't used) and all they gave him were the flower arrangement that were at the head table and said they had nothing else. They even misplaced the cupcake stand we had rented. I found that odd because I spoke to the coordinator on duty myself at the conclusion of the reception. I was trying to get the box for it from under the table to bring it with us and she assured me twice that she would pack it up and give it to my brother in law the next day. Surprise - gone. When I got back from my honeymoon and called to ask about the cupcake stand, I again had trouble getting in touch with anyone for a few days, and when I finally did, she said they didn't have it. \r\rGaelic Park is a great venue, and I'm happy with the way my wedding turned out, but the customer service really needs to improve.

Jennifer Carroll(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-10-2013 My husband and I had our reception at Gaelic Park in October 2013. They were amazing! The staff was extremely helpful with our whole planning process. They made suggestions for bakers, DJs, photographers, etc. They helped keep me on schedule, and were very easy to get ahold of when I had questions. I dropped off all of my decorations the day before our wedding, and they set them up perfectly. They also took down all of our decorations and had them all boxed up and ready to be picked up the next day (Which is so helpful since some reception venues make you clean up your own decorations!). The prices at Gaelic Park were great, the venue is gorgeous, and the staff is TOP NOTCH! You can't beat this place! Reviewed on 24-11-2014

Nicole Ruzich(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 07-12-2013 The wedding was absolutely beautiful at Gaelic Park. The service was not the greatest. Our centerpieces were cleared out at the end of dinner, people who ordered vegetarian dishes were told they didn't have enough vegetarian dishes, the doors weren't open to our room until the exact time the reception started, leaving the lobby very crowded. We made plans to pick up our things the morning after the wedding and were told they would all be in our bridal room. We got there in the morning to find our stuff was missing and nobody knew where it went. Reviewed on 24-03-2014
Nikki (bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 01-11-2013 We can honestly not say enough positive things about Gaelic Park! Our experience was absolutely wonderful from the beginning. Gaelic Park was the last venue that we looked at, and after our visit with Jan, our minds were made up. Not only do people speak volumes about the food and service at this particular location, but we loved the fact that there was a bar on-site for the party to continue once the reception was over. We set the date about 14 months before the wedding. As we got deeper into planning all the details, I contacted Gaelic Park several times to get clarification for various things. They were so responsive throughout the whole process, which put me at ease. \r\rWhen it came time to do the final walk through, this is when the staff at Gaelic Park really shined. We were able to get a feel for how the room would look set-up on the day of the wedding. When Jody suggested where things like our late night food and photo booth would be located, she would provide explanation on why it works set-up in a particular way, which was perfect. After running through the menu and all the details, we still had some lingering questions. Jody was able to answer everything and then some! She really took the time to make sure we were comfortable with all the details, and that my mind, as the bride, was at ease! \r\rAt the end of our walk-through, Jody let me know that she would have the doors to the reception locked until we were able to view it. This was such an important detail to me that I honestly had never thought of. My husband and our parents were able to view the room first, and really take in all the planning that had gone into the whole day. It was a very special moment for us! One that I had never even thought of!! \r\rOverall, I could not be happier with how our reception went. If there were any issues, I did not know about it. Jody and the staff at Gaelic Park had everything covered. The food was amazing, and we are still getting compliments on how tasty it was! Reviewed on 31-12-2013

Sara Abraham(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-05-2011 First off, most of my experience with Gaelic Park was very good. However, the day of my wedding, I found that there were a few things not done that we had discussed. After complaining about some things, their director came up to us and said, well that's not what is written down. I had to argue with her, on my wedding day, that it was written down wrong then because I know everything was discussed just days before. Other than that, the service was pretty good and so was the food. It is a very nice location but if you plan on having your wedding reception here, make sure everything is written down EXACTLY how you want things to be done and review it before they file it away.
