Recommendations

Perfect Venue! — An Eventective User
Perfect space, easy to work with. We had my son’s 1st birthday here and had an amazing time. Great location, good parking availability and beautiful space.
Could not have been happier — An Eventective User from CHICAGO, IL
We threw a 40th Birthday Bash for my wife at the Matthew Bieszczat VRC center Memorial Day weekend and we could not have been happier. The event coordinators Renata and Kim went out of their way to deliver stellar customer service and were incredibly flexible and responsive to us. They allowed us to bring in food and bar tending services where we could purchase our own alcohol, which saved us a ton of money. Plus the space is just beautiful - it has an open floor-plan complete with French doors out to the foyer where we had food stationed. There were vaulted ceilings and chandelier lighting. It also had a stage and beautiful fireplace. Everything was perfect. I loved that everyone was willing to work with me and answer all of my crazy questions. I would definitely recommend Mathew Bieszczat VRC to anyone looking to have a wedding reception,milestone birthday party, or any other type of event!
