The Art Institute of Chicago is the perfect location to celebrate the love of your life on a day you’ll cherish forever.

With a myriad of special event spaces ranging from traditional to modern, the museum offers endless options for your engagement party, rehearsal dinner, bridal shower, wedding ceremony, or reception.

Classic spaces, such as the Chicago Stock Exchange Trading Room, add instant vintage glamour to your celebration, while the Modern Wing’s sleek, elegant design acts as a blank canvas awaiting the creation of your treasured, masterpiece event. A private viewing of the permanent collection or special exhibitions can be added to create a truly extraordinary event.

Bon Appétit, the exclusive on-site event caterer for the Art Institute of Chicago, will exceed your expectations with seamless, sophisticated service and culinary excellence preparing enticing menus with a variety of flexible options.

The Modern Wing was recently named Brides Chicago 2011 magazine editor’s choice for reception sites in the museums/art galleries category.
