  Perfect venue for a wedding!

  We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Mayslake Peabody Estate on August 11, 2019, and everything was absolutely PERFECT in every way! I had called a number of different venues when we were first deciding where to have the wedding. In my first conversation with Sherry Brookes, the Public Program Coordinator, I knew that Mayslake was the place for us! Sherry is very professional, organized, and friendly, and she made all of the planning stages easy and fun. She was always accessible and flexible in working with us. The list of vendors that Sherry gave us was very helpful in selecting a caterer for our reception, and we really appreciated Sherry’s expertise and helpful suggestions based on past weddings that had been held at Mayslake. We were initially planning to have an outdoor wedding, but several weeks before the ceremony, we decided to move the wedding inside. That was not a problem for Sherry and the Mayslake staff, and we even got a refund because the charge for an indoor wedding is less! Sherry made sure to be at the rehearsal so that every detail of the wedding and reception could be reviewed. The Mayslake staff graciously accommodated all of our requests and treated us like royalty! On the day of the wedding, everything was PERFECT! Many of our guests commented on what a beautiful and unique venue we had chosen. We had about 65 guests, and it felt like we had the mansion and grounds all to ourself! The library was beautiful for our wedding ceremony and for dancing during the reception. And the table set-up in the adjoining living room and dining room was lovely and intimate for the buffet meal. The lovely grounds outside provided many photo opportunities for us and for our guests. Our guests also enjoyed looking at the paintings in the art exhibit that was there. In addition to being a wonderful venue inside and out, the cost for Mayslake was cheaper than the other venues I called, and we had use of the venue for a longer time! My husband and I are so happy the we chose Mayslake Peabody Estate for our special day, and we highly recommend it for any event you may be planning!

  Awesome place to get married!

  If you are planning an intimate wedding (60 or less), this is an estate with a cute little chapel perfect for the ceremony and a mansion for the reception! Sherry, the event-coordinator at Mayslake, is wonderful and was patient with all my questions.

  We had our wedding ceremony at Mayslake and it was absolutely beautiful! The mansion is insanely gorgeous, such a great back drop for our special day and our guests and photographers just raved about how beautiful it was. Sherry was a pleasure to work with and was very helpful throughout the entire process. We couldn't have asked for a better or smoother experience for our wedding ceremony.

  This place is absolutely beautiful. We decided to have our ceremony on the chapel grounds. Luckily, the weather held, and it was absolutely beautiful outside. Sherry was a pleasure to work with, and made sure that all our questions were answered, and was there day of to make sure everything went smoothly. I am so glad that I found this hidden gem!! Everyone was saying how beautiful it was!!

  We loved this venue. All of our guests commented on how unique and beautiful it is. Sherry did a great job with our wedding and always answered emails with in 24 hours. We were able to rent the whole first floor for our cocktail hour and then the event hall for our dinner and dancing.

  Even though the upstairs was closed for our first look photos, the entire site is gorgeous and we were able to make changes. Everyone that works there is so passionate and dedicated to the restoration of this estate. Truly seemless and beautiful
