We could not have picked a better venue for our wedding reception! The entire staff was amazing and so helpful throughout the entire wedding process. We were given some incredible unforeseen weather-related circumstances and The Falls staff did everything they could to make our day absolutely perfect! The food was phenomenal, the bar allowed us to have everything we wanted and more & the DJ is something all of our guests remember! We could not recommend this venue enough for our incredible experience!!

I could not have asked for a more perfect spot for us. The setting for an outdoor fall ceremony was magical. They always do such a good job with their outdoor space. One of my favorite things was the fact that it was all a packaged deal-you didn't have to go elsewhere to find food for guests, didn't have to find a DJ, etc. They also provide a coordinator for your day and that made it completely stress-free for us. You can tell the people working/running The Falls have tons of experience and are meant for a job like this. Huge thanks to Brad, Ashley, and Nancy! The sweetest people and we can't thank them enough!

I initially booked this venue for the beautiful ceremony area but The Falls had so much more to offer. From the delicious food to the sweetest and most attentive staff, we could not have asked for more. Our wedding coordinator Ashley was absolutely amazing; I asked so many questions and she made planning our wedding a breeze. The in-house DJ was amazing from helping us decide on music to making sure everyone was dancing. I will be recommending this venue to anyone and everyone.

They were great up until the day of the wedding. We rented out the venue area for the full time. They decided to have another wedding in our space that we paid for while we were having our reception. They didn't ask us nor make us aware. I finally asked and was told it was because it rained during their timeslot which wasn't true; they also said that the other wedding party ran late and missed their timeslot. They gave them the ok, again this was the time we paid for. The communication was very poor on the day of the wedding. Changes were made at the last minute that we were not made aware of and had little time to adjust to. Tammy, who we had not dealt with was there with the worst attitude and lied about what was or wasn't available and was of no help but wanted to make we knew she just had foot surgery. Our coordinator arrived much later. Beautiful l venue. Again, great building up to the day. Dropped the ball on quite a few things on the day of. We stayed in good spirits but was very disappointed. Cannot recommend. Update: they granted our request to come back and take pictures.

I recommend this place to anybody getting married. The minute we saw the venue we knew immediately that’s where we were getting married. Getting married during covid provided it’s fair share of stress but Ashley, the coordinator, made this experience wonderful. She was extremely professional and knowledgeable. She answered all of our questions and concerns. As for the day, it was perfect. It rained ALL day except for the 20 min of the ceremony. The staff worked so hard to ensure we could have our ceremony outdoor. We appreciate that more than we can express. The reception was phenomenal. The food was great and the DJ played music that kept our guests dancing all night.

The Falls were incredible to work with from start to finish. The entire staff is sweet, accommodating and did everything to make sure that our big day was as perfect as possible despite pandemic. They also made sure that everyone was as safe as humanly possible during our reception with temp checks at the door, sanitizing stations throughout the venue, social distancing, fewer guests at each table and mask requirements. Ashley, our coordinator, was amazing to work with. She walked us through every single step and kept us up to date during the pandemic closures and with the COVID restrictions. She made sure our day went off without a hitch and had each and every detail worked out for us! She and her team even helped with the cleanup so that all our family members had to do was load boxes into cars!They worked so hard to make sure that our day could happen through each Illinois shut down and we’re so sweet to us every step of the way. Our DJ, Brad, was not only fantastic for us and our guests on the dance floor, but made sure that all of our needs and wants were met! He even pulled out some of his bartender skills to make me a special cocktail!We would recommend the Falls to any couple who is looking for a full service venue with incredible food and service. If you’re looking for a venue that takes care of you, not just as customers but as people, then this is the place for you!

We loved every single thing about the Falls. Our wedding was beautiful. The food is FANTASTIC - I definitely recommend the sun-dried tomato and spinach pasta, and the spinach salad. All of our friends and family raved about the food. Ashley (the coordinator) is great to work with and had everything running smoothly day of. She was also serving people, wiping down tables, and even cleaning the bathrooms at the end of the night. She is the definition of a great manager. Brad, the DJ, was great and even got in the middle of our circle of guests for the last song and sang with us. I would recommend the Falls over and over and over again if I could.

The Falls is an absolutely incredible venue. We had an elaborate birthday for 160 people. It was setup better than any wedding reception I have been to including my own. The food was delicious and hot from the first person to the last person. The servers were all very friendly, professional, and extremely attentive. The DJ was super fun and did an awesome job of keeping the dance floor busy. The coordinator, Ashley, was phenomenal to work with, easygoing, professional, and her follow through was 110%. Our event was ten stars all the way from the first planning meeting until we left happy and thrilled at the end of our party. If you are planning a wedding or a party and want a fabulous venue, you should certainly consider The Falls. Additionally, the location is perfect for out of town guests with a hotel within walking distance, easy commute to the airport and convenient to lots of amenities.

This is the most amazing place to have a wedding! I know that as a bride you are probably looking at a million places and considering the cost of every venue. Do you yourself a favor and go with the falls! Having a place that is pretty much all inclusive is a lifesaver! Worried that maybe the food or DJ isn’t good? Don’t! Go to the tastings before wedding and you will be reassured that everything is DELICIOUS! And DJ? Ask for Brad. He did such a great job and kept our guests dancing and having fun until they literally had to kick us out. Ashley is amazing and took care of every single little thing. As a bride, I got to truly enjoy my day and didn’t have to coordinate the day of. I couldn’t thank her enough! And let’s talk about the ceremony outside! We had 40 degrees and drizzle and it was still breathtaking.

I cannot express how incredibly delightful it was to work with everyone at The Falls! I originally called because I'd had some sticker shock from another venue. I spoke with Brad and his attempt to describe the beauty of the outdoor waterfall sold me immediately. They sent us a contract by the end of the day. We visited later that month and booked our date! Some people talk about how pricey a wedding is at The Falls, but I honestly think it's an amazing value and I had no problem paying for convenience. I had stated early on that I didn't care about chair covers with bows and since they rent those, they were able to take that off our package price. The DJ (Top Cats) was included in our package and a shuttle was available to the Hampton Inn down the road for a small fee. Guests talked about how the shuttle was incredibly convenient! Although we rented our centerpieces from somewhere else, they had centerpieces we could have used for free or rent some from them. The food was absolutely amazing! I didn't quite finish all of my dinner because I was a bit overwhelmed by the whole day and I completely regret it! We had our ceremony outside by the waterfall. We were able to do pictures there beforehand and we had the area for the rest of the evening. It was so nice to have a private space to escape to for some fresh air throughout the night! I don't recall there being any problems at all and even if there had been, I know that they would have taken care of it immediately. They honestly have thought of everything! There were a couple of times when the way they typically did things didn't quite mesh with my vision, but because of all of their experience, they always had good reasons why their way made sense and I was totally on board. We got so many compliments throughout the night and after the wedding about how fun and wonderful the whole night was. My husband and I had such an amazing time we're planning to have a 5 year anniversary party there! I cannot recommend them more!!!

I cannot express how incredibly delightful it was to work with everyone at The Falls! I originally called because I'd had some sticker shock from another venue. I spoke with Brad and his attempt to describe the beauty of the outdoor waterfall sold me immediately. They sent us a contract by the end of the day. We visited later that month and booked our date! Some people talk about how pricey a wedding is at The Falls, but I honestly think it's an amazing value and I had no problem paying for convenience. I had stated early on that I didn't care about chair covers with bows and since they rent those, they were able to take that off our package price. The DJ (Top Cats) was included in our package and a shuttle was available to the Hampton Inn down the road for a small fee. Guests talked about how the shuttle was incredibly convenient! Although we rented our centerpieces from somewhere else, they had centerpieces we could have used for free or rent some from them. The food was absolutely amazing! I didn't quite finish all of my dinner because I was a bit overwhelmed by the whole day and I completely regret it! We had our ceremony outside by the waterfall. We were able to do pictures there beforehand and we had the area for the rest of the evening. It was so nice to have a private space to escape to for some fresh air throughout the night! I don't recall there being any problems at all and even if there had been, I know that they would have taken care of it immediately. They honestly have thought of everything! There were a couple of times when the way they typically did things didn't quite mesh with my vision, but because of all of their experience, they always had good reasons why their way made sense and I was totally on board. We got so many compliments throughout the night and after the wedding about how fun and wonderful the whole night was. My husband and I had such an amazing time we're planning to have a 5 year anniversary party there! I cannot recommend them more!!!

The Falls wedding Coordinater, Stephanie, was a dream to work with. She walked us through every step of the wedding planning process and made it incredibly fun and easy. She was very easy to get ahold of and would return my emails in a timely fashion. The day of the wedding was smooth and easygoing. Stephanie was in control of our late arriving guests and made the entire ceremony an unforgettable experience. The catering manager, Ashley, was amazing to work with at the reception. She was attentive to our ever changing needs, in addition to keeping all of our guests happy. The serving staff was a delight and the DJ was so sweet. We're still getting compliments from our guests about how good the food was, how fun the environment was, and how pretty this venue is. We can't wait to see our pictures. We hope to come back to this venue soon!

From my first meeting, tasting, constant emails, my customer service was awesome. I had the most talked about Wedding last year. It was so beautiful and even when it rained and they prepared to move everything indoors, it stopped and everything was dried and looking beautiful again. I was very pleased :)

When planning our reception at this place,they gave us many perks and made us very comfortable with our decisions. They didn't push us into anything we didn't want in our wedding since it wasn't their wedding. They are very professional and nice. The reception itself went great and when things got a little hectic (like our cake that almost colapsed!) they gave us an options that would avoid that situation. After our wedding was over, I remembered I left a couple things at the vendor (like the cake topped and cake stands my friend had in the cake). To this day I still have not gotten a response back via email or phone call concerning this matter and our wedding was over 4 months ago! Our last attempt is to go to the place,but it is about an hour away. They take great care of you,until your wedding is over :(
