We were extremely satisfied with The Haley Mansion for our wedding. The venue staff was always available for calls and questions. They were very responsive and made our wedding everything we thought it could be. I highly recommend this venue for a wedding. Reviewed on 18-01-2024

There aren't enough words to describe how wonderful this venue is! It is beautiful. We got married after the fire and they were so accommodating and understanding with their new limitations at this time. They truly understand how to make the day of the event as seamless as possible and to ensure that it is the best day. Our guests and family talked highly of the staff and how beautiful the venue was; it was all we wanted and more! Reviewed on 08-12-2023
Owen Hall(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-01-2023 This venue is downright incredible. From the first tour we knew we wanted to have our reception here. The communication from them was clear and open, and their list of needs was so easy to plan for. Food: insanely good. We had a few dietary restrictions in our reception party and they were great at marking those as different and keeping the same level of quality of all dishes. All the appetizers, mains, and deserts were phenomenal. The bar was great and had a great team as wellSpace: This building is beautiful. Everyone kept telling us how much they loved the venue and the staff. Team members and service: Eloy was our day of coordinator and blew us away with his professionalism and skill. Everything went so smoothly and wonderfully. We had a number of photos we wanted set up around the mansion. We dropped them off on Thursday and when we came by on Saturday, everything was set up and laid out. I highly recommend this vendor. They were amazing and helped make our wedding truly an event to remember. Reviewed on 28-01-2023
Stephanie Flowers-Buchcar(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-10-2022 Wow! What a venue. We were blown away with the staff on the day of our wedding. They decorated to perfection, served everyone with speed and a smile, and went above and beyond to make our day perfect. The property manager (Eloy) was superb. He told us to make the Mansion our home for the night and boy did we enjoy that! While the venue is a little pricey, it comes with everything- linens, china, serve ware, the cake, food, drinks, servers, lighting, ceremony and reception chairs, free parking, late night White Castle, and more. Most other traditional venues we looked at required us to get individual vendors for all of this. The venue is worth it. It’s beautiful and magical. We felt like Gatsby for a night. If I had to do it over again, hands down, it would be at The Haley Mansion! Reviewed on 02-11-2022
Allison Tusek(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-05-2022 We loved having the Haley Mansion for our wedding on 5-21-22! The staff was incredible on the day-of and made everything flow smoothly. Everyone was attentive and professional throughout. The food was great and we got several compliments throughout the evening on the serving size and quality of food. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and we were even able to utilize the outdoor patio area for cocktail hour with an additional bar located outside.

Paige Wissel(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 04-12-2021 I cannot say enough good things about The Haley Mansion!!!! My husband and I were blown away by the attentiveness to the us and the bridal party the day of the wedding. We keep getting compliments from our guests on the food and the service. The Mansion’s beauty brought the evening to life, and we took pictures outside of the mansion at night, and they are GORGEOUS!!! I HIGHLY recommend checking out the Haley Mansion, and you will fall in love with the venue. Also, their Christmas decorations make a perfect Christmas wedding ❤️ Reviewed on 08-12-2021
Taylor Coats(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-07-2021 The wedding venue of my dreams! Not only are the mansion and grounds stunning, the ballroom is beyond anything I could have imagined. from the moment we walked in, no other venue could compare. Sandy and Savanah were beyond gracious while working with us, especially considering having to postpone our initial wedding date an entire year due to covid. Day of, our wedding vision came to life and the staff provided one of the most magical experiences our guests are still raving about over a month later. Not to mention the food is phenomenal! As big foodies, we wanted a venue that was a step above your basic venue standard, the mansion exceeded those expectations threefold. Our day at the Haley Mansion was an absolute fairy tale!

Ali McKay(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 21-05-2021 This was my dream venue! Beautiful garden for the ceremony, classy decor for the reception where you could still see the outside (which was ideal in case we got rained out. I still wanted it to feel like an outside wedding and the glass conservatory would have made a lovely plan b if necessary but thankfully it wasn’t!), and a fun interior that made you feel like you were in a period romance novel!Every single guest at our wedding commented on how gorgeous this venue was. A lot of them had fun roaming through the mansion. The food was great especially the peppermint ice cream and the staff was excellent! Having heard from many other brides I expected to not have any food during cocktail hour but a server brought a tray out for us to snack on during the photos and the maitre d was always there to refill my drink so I didn’t have to go to the bar. I worked with savanna for the planning and she was an absolute delight to talk to each time. And I cannot thank them enough for their flexibility during the covid pandemic. Our original date was in April of 2020 which did not happen so when we needed to reschedule they gave us a lot of flexibility with our date since we rescheduled over a year out and we’re very generous with our guest count since it was during the vaccine roll out and we had people waiting until the last minute to rsvp and then a few that cancelled after the fact. The only thing I can would recommend is when you are filling out your contract, don’t wait until the tasting to put in your food and drink in. You can probably always negotiate up but we didnt lock in our ideas early so we when the new year rolled around (we had planned our wedding out over a year before we needed to reschedule so this was not due to covid) the prices for everything went up a dollar or two and that adds up.

Samantha Cotton(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-04-2021 My husband and I can not say enough good things about the Haley Mansion. It was the very first venue we looked at for our wedding and after leaving we cancelled the rest of our venue appointments. The mansion is beautiful!! We fell in love with everything about the place. The staff was remarkable. We had to reschedule our wedding due to Covid and Sandy was so helpful throughout the entire annoying process of having to change dates. Fast forward to the day of and we could not have been more blown away!! The staff made sure all of our decorations and any requests that we had were taken care of. The servers were always on point and never made a guest wait for a drink. And the food was incredible! Who knew a simple dish of chicken, potatoes and veggies could taste so good?! I think we got the most compliments on the food and the staff. Hands down the best day of our lives! Reviewed on 30-04-2021
Alyssa Krause(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-02-2020 After being diagnosed with cancer 4 months before our wedding the Haley Mansion refused to refund ANY of our money. We needed it for medical bills and after explaining our situation countless times they offered no help or sympathy. I am absolutely disgusted with this “business” and could never recommend anyone I know booking an event here. Reviewed on 13-04-2021
Kevin Warner(groom)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 27-03-2020 We had our wedding cancelled due to Covid-19 unfortunately and this venue REFUSES to give back our deposit. A deposit for a now cancelled event due to an act of God. Wedding venues are supposed to be helpful and caring to their clients and this place is the exact opposite. I do not recommend this venue and am highly disappointed that they cannot be accommodating that we had to cancel our wedding for something out of our control. Reviewed on 12-07-2020
Katherine Noetzel(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-03-2020 I had my wedding here on March 14th, 2020. I can honestly say I really have no complaints. The communication among the staff at the Mansion is impeccable. Sandy, Hannah and Adrianna were my primary points of contact and they never missed a beat. I had a lot of things I dropped of 2 days before my reception and everything was absolutely perfect, down to every detail I wanted. I received so many compliments about the food and service all night, and the days to follow.I do want to mention, that my reception came right before the Covid lockdown, and I was very anxious leading up to my big day, Sandy reassured me that the staff was cleaning and sanitizing throughout the day and night and would be taking extra precautions to ensure my guests safety.All in all it was an amazing place to have my reception, I wish I could do it every weekend!!! Thanks a million to all the staff! Reviewed on 05-05-2020
Renee Hooten(bride)2 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-01-2021 My fiance and I toured this venue twice. The first time, we absolutely fell in love with it, but quickly learned that it was quite outside our budget based on head count, regardless of the minuscule incentive they provided. We went home and agreed to lower the headcount to lower cost. Our second visit, we planned to further negotiate as we were very close to a comfortable number. From there we learned of a new fee that was never originally mentioned, while being told it was built into the entree cost, it really wasn't. Once our final estimated budget was sent to us, it was almost $3K more than we thought, which it should have been only $600. We were then AGAIN told the estimate was entered incorrectly. That the venue rental fee and ceremony were not added into the total. It is EXTREMELY disheartening to love a venue, but have such distrust in a team that can't even provide a correct budget. Not to mention, they pride themselves on taking care of the process for the bride, but that is wrong. If I have to babysit your team for a correct estimate, what would the wedding look like? In addition, they could have easily helped more with bringing the cost down, of which they chose not to. A venue rental fee BTW is complete BS. That is just another way to obtain more money. As sad as it was, my fiance and I chose not to move forward with them. Reviewed on 28-01-2020

Sarah Morey(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-11-2018 I cried happy tears when we toured the Patrick Haley Mansion during our venue search and by the end of our tour, my fiance and I knew that it was the right place for us. The venue is absolutely stunning and we loved the feel of the old house paired with a beautiful ballroom. We wanted a unique, vintage, and elegant venue and the Haley Mansion delivers.The biggest struggle I had with them was communication. They do a team-based communication approach, so you have multiple people accessing your files and answering your questions. That can be frustrating, but they did a pretty good job leaving detailed notes in our file. It seems like they have a lot of turnover, because the managers we started working with were not the same ones that ended up helping us on the day-of. They are very focused on doing things their way and they try to shepherd you into specific timelines and table arrangements. That being said, they were willing to work with us on doing some unique things once they understood the full picture and why it was important to us. The food was delicious both at the tasting and on the day-of. We received extremely positive guest comments on the food and every steak came out medium rare. Some people told us it was the best wedding meal they ever had.I liked that many upgrades were included in their base package, so I didn't feel nickeled and dimed throughout the process. They also let us incorporate personal touches like family photos on the mantels around the mansion.Even with the sometimes frustrating communication, I loved working with PHM. They helped us throw an incredible party that we will never forget. Reviewed on 07-12-2018

We are still getting comments from guests about the service and atmosphere of The Haley Mansion. The food was exquisite and there was a lot of it! You receive your own dog of wedding planner which keeps the wedding and reception flowing smooth and most of all on time! The only downfall is they have a guest minimum - our wedding ended up larger than we had planned since we had to meet their adult minimum. We also had to have the wedding on a Friday vs a Saturday due to The Saturday adult minimum being 250 which 1 we didn’t have that many people to invite and 2 it would have been way out of budget.

The team members were fantastic, the food was outstanding, and the venue looked and felt magical. Our guests have also shared a great deal of positive feedback about the food, look, and staff of PHM.

Helen Scott(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-11-2016 The mansion was really great to work with and everyone was always very friendly and polite. We found it to be an amazing place that was great value for our money. The food was amazing and the staff was always helpful and polite. On the day of our coordinator (Patrick) was beyond helpful and accommodating. We had a family member who had some unexpected special needs and he did everything he could to make sure she still had a good time and was comfortable. I am so grateful to him for his help that day. I honestly cannot say enough to praise his service and professionalism. If they lose him as an employee then they will have lost one of their greatest assets. All the wait staff was extremely polite and helpful. We even had someone offer us some hors d'oeuvres while we were taking photos after the wedding. Plus they dealt with some food allergies (peanut and fish) really well allowing us to just enjoy the food and the day. The food came out warm and tasted amazing. We also had the sweets table which was a huge hit. Our guests absolutely loved it, plus everything tasted amazing. There were only a couple things I think they could improve on, first, that they keep a regular contact through email instead of someone different responding to every email, and second, that they don't allow tours right up until the bride is about to walk out. Other than those two things they were amazing to work with. Reviewed on 17-01-2017

Denise Dougherty(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-09-2015 This place is absolutely GORGEOUS inside & out. It’s a hidden gem in Joliet. I would have never found it if I didn’t search The Knot and then click on it because it said Mansion. There is so much to say about this place. The food is amazing; every single bite of food there is great. The venue is big and beautiful. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Kari was our go to person and she made everything run so smoothly the day of and leading up to the big day, she answered every e-mail I sent in a timely fashion. This place is very expensive though!

We were so afraid we were not going to find that perfect venue that had everything we wanted for our wedding. When we walked into the mansion, we knew it was the perfect place for our big day. From the staff, to the decor to the grounds of the mansion, this place is amazing! Jan was incredibly helpful and made wedding planning EASY! The mansion paid attention to all the details we wanted for the day of and surpassed our expectations. We are still getting compliments on our reception from food to the service to the venue.

Jessie Weinberg(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 31-07-2015 This is one of the most stunning wedding venues I’ve ever seen. Having been there about 10 times now, I’m still in awe every time I’m there. The grounds are just immaculate – so lush and made a beautiful backdrop for our ceremony and pictures. The vintage details inside made for such a romantic atmosphere. And the staff is incredible – we worked closest with Jan and Stephanie and they were always so welcoming, patient, and accommodating to us during the entire process. Emails were responded to within 24 hours and all information was told to us upfront. They literally take care of everything - set up, packing up, etc. They had special servers for the bridal party and someone was always there if we needed anything. The food is delicious and the portions are huge. They have a large variety of hor d’oeuvres as well. They put so much detail into everything – white glove butlers, edible orchids to adorn salads, beautiful water dispensers for outdoor ceremonies, ivory damask embossed table linens, gold plated dishes, etc. The night of the wedding, the Best Man worked with the bar staff and they went and found 100 small beer tasting glasses and poured Blue Moon beer so everyone could go on the front lawn and do a toast to the blue moon that night! They made our day so incredibly special for us. This place is expensive, but we thought it was worth every dollar we spent there. My only negative was that they have a 250 ADULT guest minimum for Saturday nights in the summer. We had to have our wedding on a Friday because we only invited 210 guests, including children, (which I think is a large wedding) and didn’t want to pay for an extra 40+ plates. I thought 250 was a high threshold, but no one seemed to have trouble getting down to Joliet for a Friday night wedding so it was fine for us. I wwould have preferred a Saturday though. All in all, the Patrick Haley Mansion hosted a dream wedding for us and we’re being showered with compliments on the venue and food. Thank you! Reviewed on 01-09-2015

Thank you SO VERY MUCH for my beautiful wedding on 4/17/15! Your staff is incredibly friendly, attentive and PROFESSIONAL! I have never had such an wonderful experience .. From the first day I met Tracy she was organized and knowledgeable about everything wedding. Her coordinating skills are impeccable. I never felt stressed, unprepared or worried. She did such an amazing job helping me create the wedding of my dreams. Her suggestions were always welcome and her advice was always sound. The mansion..incredible! All my guests drove over an hour for my wedding and I was told over and over the location was well worth the trip. Our coordinator for the day was so sweet and she kept my nerves at bay. We were provided our own server for the night.. that was a cherry on the cake. I was asked quite a few times how I found such an incredible venue.... The food was HOT and tasted just like it did the day we chose it! So many compliments on the food! People loved the mobility of the venue and the freedom to enjoy it as they pleased. I went with the sweet table...man o man I never saw deserts go so FAST! My guests also loved the late night snack.. official white castle!

Now that I am about to walk away and go to another venue because of another late night, with limited sleep because there management has again disappointed me - enough already. The resent customer comments and the professional rating guide for this venue from mid 2014 to current are exactly what I am experiancing, nothing favorable and a huge amount of anger! There manager even commented to me about \"people (couples) are backing out of their event\" and I can see why. This will probably be my experiance too! I have a meeting to try and resolve my concerns but honestly I do not see anything worth my time and additional money. All I have encountered is a group of individuals that want your (in this case my) money. I am getting nothing for my multiple deposits - except a \"date\" with a team that is all about themselves. I am trying to find the good but even my friends and family say, \"It sounds like a rip off!\"....

Anonymous (bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-05-2015 I tried to set up an appointment to see the venue. The pictures all looked beautiful online and the reviews were wonderful. I spoke to one of their staff over the phone and she was very rude to me from the very beginning of the conversation. I told her what date I wanted and she immediately said it wasn't available without even checking her calendar. She then stated that it was available when I actually had her look up the date. She then proceed to tell me I wasn't allowed to bring anything into the venue. When I asked her to clarify what she meant she stated that they did not allow things to be brought into their venue like a decorated area for the bride and groom to sit such a small stage or riser. I also told her I was Muslim and that I did have some cultural and religious requirement for our reception. Mainly that we could only have females entering the ballroom area when the event was occurring. I have spoken to several other vendors and banquet halls and none of them seemed to find this a problem. Some stated we would have to pay extra which I understand but they were willing to work with us on this point. She later called me back and stated that they are unable to accommodate this request so I cancelled my appointment. \r\rAll in all I found the management unwilling to compromise and overall rude and unfriendly. I don't know if some racism was going on as I did state that I was Muslim however even before I told them that the staff member I spoke to did not seem very willing to help. Overall I do not recommend trying this site if you have specific cultural or religious requirements or if you are very picky and want things a very certain way. The staff are unwilling to work with you and quick to say no before even seeing if something is or is not possible. This is such a shame as the event space looks so beautiful. Reviewed on 07-01-2015
Rhiannon Smith(bride)3 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 13-04-2014 Quite overpriced. The food was just okay. Even after paying thousands of dollars, it sometimes felt like everything was about their bottom line.

The staff is very organized all the way until your wedding day helping with details and such. They also have a planner there during the wedding helping with organizing. The food at the mansion was wonderful! That was something we felt was very important in our initial choice of the mansion. All of our guests were happy with the food and we received many compliments. We had one minor issue, the staff was missing two chairs at the head table and it was not noticed until we went to sit down after introductions. My MOH took care of it without me noticing but it was upsetting because we had a meeting previously with a chart of how many people where going to be at our head table so it was an avoidable mistake.

Alli Kaminski(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-06-2013 Absolutely perfect wedding! I could not have asked for better quality of a venue, service, professionalism and competence on my wedding day. It was everything I had been envisioning. The only problems we ran into was that, during the planning process, there were multiple staff personnel handling our account so it would get complicated. Also, the gratuity gets taxed which we felt was fairly absurd and did not figure in when doing the wedding budget. We also did not like the minimum that was placed for summer Saturday evening weddings, nor the fact that you can only have one dinner item unless you wanted to pay a lot more for a second entree. \r\rHowever, the actual wedding day was flawless. We had a lot of small details that could have been overlooked, but they did a marvelous job of knowing all of them. All of my guests said that this was the prettiest wedding they have ever attended. I felt like it was heavenly and Patrick C. Haley made the whole day priceless and worry free. I would not even suggest needing a wedding planner. They will coordinate everything for you. Every venue in Chicagoland is expensive, so I would say that this is the best value considering everything. We looked at nearly 15 venues. Excellent job! Reviewed on 25-06-2013

Valerie Melrose(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-11-2012 My husband and I had our reception of about 200 people at the mansion, and an amazing number of people have told us that we had the most beautiful and well-organized wedding that they have ever been to, so due praise goes to the Haley Mansion. You truly cannot beat the Haley Mansion for a stunning venue.\r\rHowever, my husband and I had some serious qualms about communications with the mansion staff. For example, items that we had discussed with their staff seemed to change at later dates. As one example, we were not told that we needed a certain number of guests during the peak wedding season, so we had to change the date of our wedding to a non-peak season day after we had already set a tentative wedding date based on the information the mansion gave us. In general, little details seemed to be difficult to obtain from the mansion. The mansion's policy on handling wedding contracts is that they do not assign one person to coordinate the day. This means that when you communicate a question or issue to the mansion it can easily fall through the cracks because there is not one specific person responsible for answering your questions.\r\rAll little issues aside during the planning process of our wedding, the Haley Mansion truly provided wonderful service throughout our entire wedding day and we would choose the venue again if we had to everything over again.

However every step of the way we were told different things depending on who was telling us. One person would say they were flexible while another would tell us a flat out no and then later we would find out that what we wanted was not only possible but had been done recently for another couple. Barb was fantastic. It is a beautiful place but money talks and apparently 10,000 dollars for over 100 people was not enough. Work on customer service Patrick Haley!
