    The perfect day

    It was an absolute delight to get married at the Lodge! Everything about our wedding was just perfect! We had our ceremony on the Grassy Knoll and our reception in the Grand Oaks Pavillion. Many of our out of town, and some of our local guests, had the pleasure of staying at the Hyatt as well. This could not have been more perfect. The bridal party had so much fun getting ready in the provided meeting room while the groom’s party got ready in a suite. The set up for the ceremony was seamless and we had a beautiful day. There were also so many little things that the Hyatt did that made our wedding day special. It also helped that the food tasted amazing! We LOVED having the late night cheeseburgers passed out on a platter around the dancefloor. None of our guests can stop talking about it and it made the whole experience super unique.

    Everyone from the check in staff to the maintenance crew were wonderful. Our bartenders, Anthony and Dan were super friendly and kept the party going. Our personal server, Barb, was constantly ensuring my husband and my needs were met and even brought out a platter of appetizers while we were taking pictures on the grounds during cocktail hour. Cheryl, our banquet manager, did a fantastic job of working with our planner to solve any last minute hiccups without adding any additional stress on my husband or me. Prior to our wedding, planning with the Hyatt was also really easy. Lynsey, our assistant did a great job of ironing out details with our planner and made sure we had a great tasting experience. The platform Hyatt uses for payments was uncomplicated it was effortless to negotiate our contract with the Hyatt and get last minute things added to our final order. The overall cost was also very reasonable for all of the services that the Hyatt provided. I could not have asked for a better wedding experience, everything was just so beautiful and perfect!

    Hello Mira, We truly appreciate your feedback and LOVED helping you plan this special day. It was wonderful working with you! Couples like you and D'Andre are the reason why we do this. Thank you!

    Most beautiful wedding venue.

    The Hyatt lodge was truly spectacular. I had initially planned a much larger wedding but with covid we down sized to around 50 people. They truly brought my vision to life and the night was beautiful. It felt like way more than 50 people. Jimmy and his team were very accommodating and made the process easy. I received so many compliments throughout the night on the venue and over all service. Highly recommend!!!

    Excellent experience with the Hyatt Lodge

    If you are decided between venues, look no further than the Hyatt. It was absolutely worth spending a little bit extra for the experience we received. The beauty of the grounds and the reception rooms are absolutely unmatched, regardless of what season you choose to have your wedding. Sigita, Cheryl and the whole team at the Hyatt provided exceptional communication and service throughout. They went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was perfect.

    Our wedding went off without a hitch thanks to Sigita and her team. I did not need a wedding coordinator because she and her team took care of everything I needed the day of the wedding. The Hyatt Lodge is a very well oiled, beautiful machine; these people really know how to do weddings. I wish we could do our wedding all over again because this venue and grounds are absolutely breathtaking. The entire experience was easy and stress free thanks to these wonderful people!

    The Hyatt Lodge was great in the planning process and execution of our wedding day. They are pros! We had a Halloween themed reception and the Hyatt set the reception space up better than I ever could have imagined and the food was great! Our coordinators Sigita and Leslie were awesome! They answered my never ending emails and put my mind at ease that everything would be taken care of. The property is beautiful for pictures and the rooms are nice and reasonably priced. All of our guest raved about how great the venue was. I highly recommend the Hyatt Lodge and their event team.

    I could write a book about how amazing the Hyatt was. Leslie, Sigita, and Cheryl are the dream team and they made our perfect night happen. They were incredibly helpful, very kind, insightful, supportive, and professional. Leslie and Sigita answered all of my little questions right away and did an excellent job pulling it all together the day-of.

    Wow. Just, wow.

    At first I thought the price for the venue was a little steep...but let me tell you, it was worth every penny!! Wonderful service by coordinators and staff. Fantastic service by wait staff and everyone involved. The team at the Hyatt Lodge made the planning and execution of our Wedding easy for us and very enjoyable. Great service and location. The Grand Oaks Pavilion is a wonderful room and everyone of our guest could not help but rave about the place. Love it!

    So impressed with this venue. I worked with Sagita and Leslie, and they were fabulous. They catered to every need and detail throughout the whole process. The room we used looked more beautiful than I could have imagined. Both Sagita and Leslie helped me piece the small details together to create a wonderful event.

    Our wedding reception was BEAUTIFUL! We got so many compliments on the room, the food, the service, it was amazing. Sigita, Leslie, and Cheryl worked really hard to ensure a perfect event and they came through! They worked with us to create a whole wedding weekend, rehearsal through Sunday breakfast! I definitely recommend having events at this location.

    Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's campus made our wedding perfect. It was our dream wedding. They went above and beyond and were willing to work with us on any request we had. When i would send them an email with a question or request they would always get back to me very quickly. Our wedding coordinator was there on the day of our wedding to make sure things ran smoothly. The food was also so delicious. We got multiple compliments on the food. We worked with Lauren, Tracy, Kelly and Leslie. I highly recommend each and everyone of them.

    If you want the best, this is it! I felt like a princess on my wedding day. The waitstaff at the Hyatt were AMAZING! They kept coming up to me and handing me appetizers to make sure I was eating. The few times I had to go to the bar (they were very good at watching when I needed something to drink and bringing it up to me without me even asking) I walked up and they already knew what I wanted. They were so attentive to both me and my guests. As the guests walked in all the servers stood lined up in black with white cloths hanging from their arms. My guests said they felt like they were in a movie. It was a nice touch. Sure the venue is a little pricey, but it is totally worth it and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Cheeseburgers as a late night snack at the end were a HUGE hit! The guests loved them!

    We had our wedding reception here on June 21st and I could not be more pleased with how everything turned out. We are still getting compliments on the food and the venue from our guests.

    Working with Leslie and Sigita was such a pleasure. They were always there to answer my questions or give us suggestions on things. They were so helpful and made the planning process such a breeze.

    The days leading up to the wedding I was a basket case (as many brides are) but I knew I did not have to worry about anything when I handed everything over to Leslie and Sigita.

    When I walked into the Grand Oaks Pavilion before our reception I was blown away. It was BEAUTIFUL! The lighting, tables, everything. It was exactly what my husband and I wanted for our reception. And the grounds of the Lodge are beautiful also. My husband and I and our bridal party took all of our photos there. When it was all filled in with the trees and the flowers, it looked amazing.

    I can't say enough about the Hyatt staff either. First, one of the servers was following us around with champagne and a tray of hors d'oeuvres when we were taking our photos during the cocktail reception. Amazing. We were STARVING. Our Captain, Barb, was the most amazing person in the world. At the end of the night when we just wanted to crash, she was carting things up to our room and saving dessert trays for us to take the next day. She went above and beyond her call of duty for us and did it with the best attitude in the world. We cannot thank her enough for all of her help.

    The food was also amazing. We got compliments on it all night. The service went great also and the cheeseburgers in paradise were a huge hit with the milkshake shooters. Bonus: not many brides and grooms get to actually eat their dinner at their reception because of mingling, photos etc. The amazing staff at the Hyatt saved plates for my husband and I to eat when we had a minute. While everyone was dancing, we had our prime rib dinner, just the two of

    The Hyatt Lodge was the most beautiful and perfect spot to host a wedding reception and ceremony. The staff were ALL helpful from the initial wedding plans to weeks after our wedding. They truly care about all of the details that made a wedding special. Sijita and Leslie in the events office were extremely helpful and were always prompt as answering questions and even asked things that we didn't even think about. They asked me if we were planning on having people meet the next morning for breakfast so that they could prepare enough staff to take care of us! This is just ONE example of how in stride they are to a bride and groom's needs. Our captain, Cheryl, was fabulous during our wedding reception. She made sure to coordinate all of our vendors to make sure everything was running smoothly. It was the BEST NIGHT thanks to the staff and the beautiful venue.

    We had the most amazing experience with the Hyatt Lodge. Everyone we worked with was so wonderful, and we felt so cared for on our wedding day. We did not have to worry about a THING!

    Our guests kept commenting on how beautiful the venue is. It's such a gem-- tucked away from everything yet close enough to anything your guests could need. The hotel is beautiful and very reasonably priced for out-of-town guests.

    This place has weddings down to a science, but they still manage to give you a completely personal and heartfelt experience. We would recommend them to anyone.

    P.S. If the idea of having two weddings at the same venue scares you, just know that the ballrooms are separated so much that you wouldn't even know that there was another one going on. It was such a non-issue and really not something to be concerned about here.

    As others have said, they totally know what they're doing here. Our wedding reception went seamlessly with no stress whatsoever. The food on the night of our reception was even better than it had been at the tasting-- how'd that happen??
    The room was gorgeous-- we had the Grand Oaks Pavilion. It turned out to be a very rainy evening, but the trees were still vibrant outside the windows. One tip-- I had white globe lanterns hanging over the dance floor and absolutely loved them! They reflect off the glass at night and look absolutely magical in pictures.
    The staff was excellent-- especially Sigita and our captain Barb-- she masterfully whisked the extra flowers from the head table and cocktail hour away at the end of the night and displayed them beautifully in the Q room for our brunch the next day.
    Just a lovely, lovely day for us.

Our reception was perfect and all of our guests were really impressed with the location, quality of the food and service of the staff. I would definitely recommend holding your wedding at this location.

    My wife, Katie, and I held both our outdoor wedding ceremony and our reception at the Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus and we have nothing but wonderful things to say about Melanie, our wedding coordinator, and the rest of the staff at the Hyatt Lodge. The level of personal attention and commitment from the Lodge was incredible. They were extremely flexible in regards to any and all ideas that we had and allowed us to use their space and facilities in any way we pleased. They promised us that they would give us the wedding of our dreams and that is absolutely what they did!

    Melanie's assistance through our planning process was truly invaluable. She was absolutely integral in making our big day such a success and we are so grateful to her for that! The professionalism and class with which Melanie and her staff planned, coordinated and carried out the various parts of our wedding day were remarkable and Katie and I could not be happier that we chose the Hyatt Lodge for our wedding!

    To start, planning our wedding with Melanie was truly a joy. Katie and I never felt stressed and really enjoyed every moment of the entire process. The location and set up for our ceremony was absolutely gorgeous. The grounds at the McDonald's Campus were unbeatable for our wedding photos. The cocktail hour on the patio outside of the Grand Oaks Pavilion was perfect. The food for our reception in the Grand Oaks Pavilion was some of the best we've ever tasted. The list could really go on forever. The entire day was just incredible thanks all of the hard work from Melanie and her staff.

    We were absolutely thrilled with everything about the Hyatt Lodge at McDonald's Campus and, as far we are concerned, it is the absolutely perfect place to hold a wedding. We would recommend it to anyone and everyone we know without hesitation!

    Love, love, love everything about our wedding venue. From the ceremony to the reception everything was perfect!

    I was the bride, who held all of my wedding events at the Hyatt Lodge on May 13th– 15th 2011. I hosted my welcome dinner Friday, ceremony and wedding on Saturday and farewell breakfast Sunday.

    Overall, from the minute I met Catherine and Sigita in the fall of 2010 I knew I had made an excellent decision. Still in a wedding glow, I am overwhelmed with how all of the events came to light, most of all my wedding day.

    Catherine and Sigitia are true professionals who not only know how to make a bride and groom happy, but who represent the Hyatt’s brand name as if it was their own. Their attention to detail, their patience and overall creativity made what was the most important day of my life absolutely PERFECT!

    Looking back, I would not have changed a single thing! Not one little detail. From the venue choice, to the delicious menu and food, to the decision to move our ceremony inside (it was bad weather, it is Chicago) – everything was better than expected.

    Everything at the hotel was great!
    - Sigitia, Catherine and the staff they work with!!
    - The front desk staff (the women who seemed to work nonstop, I believe her name was Lori, was a total doll)
    - Excellent waiters, waitresses and bartenders (Adan the capital, Benjamin, Barb, Gabriela to name a few of what seemed like endless numbers – I did not have the pleasure to meet them all but I can tell you everyone commented on their service!)
    - The spa staff Beverly and Susan took care of myself, my mother and some of my bridesmaid’s and did it will style.
    - The people 'behind' the scenes: The kitchen who made the best appetizers and wedding food I have ever tasted – seriously!! I worked at a banquet hall when I was in my late teens / early 20s and know what it takes to get that many meals out hot and tasting like they only dealt with 2 people instead of 200. My hats go off to them!

    I am a picky bride and it was the vendors who made my wedding EXCELLENT. Loved everything!!

    The Hyatt Lodge is not cheap but it is worth every penny. Even with two changes in the event manager (the lady in the middle didn't work out so well), the day of we could not have been happier. Up until three days before the wedding we were making changes to the arrangments and the 3rd event manager could not have made it go more smoothly. The food is AMAZING!!! We wanted an ice cream sundae bar at our wedding with an autumnal feel. The Hyatt Lodge had never done that before, however, they didn't blink at the suggestion, merely started taking notes as to how we wanted it. Furthermore, to help create the autumnal feel the chefs created this "apples foster" topping which was delicious. All of the food, the appetizers, soup, and entree came out hot (a challenge for any large party) and it was delicious. And the food that was supposed to be cold, (ie salade and the sorbet course) was cold and crisp and delicious. The servers are the best I've ever seen. They are quick, professional, and kind - every one of them had a smile the entire night. The rooms are beautiful and the lighting is kind to everyone (no awful fluorescent). Highly recommended.

    Beautiful Wedding Venue

    We had a beautiful outdoor wedding at the Hyatt Lodge in September 2020. Our main contact was Sigita, who is very professional and detail oriented. She showed us the grounds which were beautiful. The hotel has multiple ceremony and reception sites to choose from. Because we were having our wedding during the Covid pandemic we chose to do an outdoor ceremony and reception and Sigita made sure that all cdc and state guidelines were followed and took every measure to make sure that our guests and hotel staff would feel safe. The hotel stay was very pleasant and we had get ready rooms available for both bride and groom. Sigita handed over the actual day of the wedding logistics to the banquet manager Amanda. She and the rest of the hotel staff did an amazing job. They added little touches that we both appreciated. They had champagne waiting for us right after we married, they found seating for every family during the cocktail hour. They allowed me to put all of my flowers on a cart and stored them for me until we checked out the next day. Just exceptional service. I honestly could not have imagined having my wedding anywhere else and my husband I are so pleased. I so appreciate, Sigita, Amanda, and the rest of the staff that helped us have an amazing day! I cannot wait to have another event here in the future.

    We were very happy with the Lodge and would recommend it to anyone! They were extremely good to work with, we always got quick responses. The service the night of our wedding was better than we could have ever dreamed!
