Posh Banquets & Event Center - Joliet, Illinois

I needed a location for a 50th Anniversary party for my parents. I must have called 30 places. When I spoke with the Event Coordinator, Sarah, at Posh, I was hooked. She was amazing to work with, very specific and prompt in her responses, and made the whole process as worry free as possible. I could also not believe how reasonable their prices were compared with other venues. The day of the event was fantastic. Stacey, another coordinator, worked with me to make sure the room was perfect and she checked in with me throughout the night to make sure everything was going well. The staff worked in coordination with the DJ for proper timing for the cake cutting, dinner, and other planned surprises. The appetizers and dinner were delicious as everything is fresh and hand made. Overall, it was a night that we will never forget. I highly recommend Posh Banquets for any event.

I want to start out by saying, Sarah (Coordinator) was incredible! She answered all over our questions without hesitation over the last 14 months. She helped our vision come to life. She was very professional, so friendly, and VERY pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend Posh Banquets to any upcoming brides. The food was incredible, the banquet hall was beautiful, the staff went above and beyond for us! We had an outdoor ceremony and it was gorgeous! Our wedding day was stress free and literally perfect!! I couldn't have done it without the help of Sarah! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Love the Giancarlos!

Posh Banquets is an absolutely amazing venue. Our coordinator Sarah was spectacular. She went above and beyond to make our night a special as we could imagine. No detail was overlooked. The food and decor was more then we could have hoped for on our budget. Thank you Sarah for everything, you are the best. To anyone looking for a quality banquet hall look no further.

I had my wedding here last week and working with Sarah was the best. She was very helpful and did whatever she could to make things comfortable and easy for us. The venue is beautiful as well. I was hoping for everything to be excellent outside of Sarah and the venue itself but that was not the case. As everything was going smoothly and we were comfortable with our choice one thing that I was very concerned with was the food. I expressed this to Sarah initially as I was hesitant to book without a tasting first. We went on and booked and scheduled a tasting later. The food was good. However at the wedding the food was absolutely horrible. It was cold, hard, dry and tasteless. I was so upset, my guests were complaining to me and are still complaining to this day. The compensation for this was less than our expectations considering our money was spent for our guests to have a wonderful experience at our wedding. To me there was really no resolution here, what they offered us was a joke. Although Sarah was awesome and the venue was very nice, one the most important things I desired was for my guests to have a good meal and that did not happen. So my wedding reception was kind of ruined because of this and sadly we did not enjoy our dinner. I didn’t eat at my own wedding and we went to White Castle after the wedding to eat because we were starving. Terrible! I’m completely embarrassed and this is just very disappointing for me and my husband.

Everything was stunning and beautiful. I knew it was going to be emotionally challenging for me to plan my father’s celebration of life, but Sarah (senior sales manager) put all of my stress at ease.

She walked us through everything step by step throughout the entire process. She was always just a phone call or email away. She guided us through the tough decisions. And when the day came, she was right there helping set up tables and making suggestions with the desserts.

The venue was gorgeous! I feel like many people were surprised everything was so elegant and beautiful. When dinner was served, the bread and butter was delicious! This was a great preview of the mouthwatering dinner to come. The pot roast was amazing! Which also surprised me because usually catered food usual isn’t very good. But the pot roast tasted as if my grandmother made it.

Overall I gave Posh Banquets 5/5 stars but I wish I could give them 10 stars! They went above and beyond my expectations for my dad’s special day. My only wish is that my father was still here with us so that he could see everything. He would have loved it!

Posh Banquets helped my husband and I create and execute the wedding of our dreams. From the moment we viewed the venue and discussed wedding packages we were wowed by the beauty and affordability of Posh. Sarah Vogel, Sales Manager, worked tirelessly as we planned our big day; I’m most impressed about her responsiveness. I never had to wait for an answer. She exceeded our expectations. Our friends and family can’t stop raving about the venue. Thank you Posh for helping to make it the best day ever!

We cannot say enough good things about Sarah (Senior Sales Manager) at Posh Banquets. She worked with us every step of the way planning all the venue details for our wedding. She seemed genuinely excited to work with us the moment we met, and her enthusiasm continued all through the process. She had so many great suggestions. She was very accommodating and patient. She was never put off by our numerous questions or requests. She was very communicative and very prompt with responses. She paid attention to the tiny details which we appreciated. Couple of examples - first, ceremony was on site, and we did not want to see each other in full dress until the bride reached the center aisle for the ceremony. Sarah stood with the bride inside and made it a point to coordinate things so that the bride did not enter the courtyard until she confirmed the groom was not looking and would not see her. Second, when the ceremony was over and as official bride & groom, the two of us went inside to have 5 minutes to ourselves. Sarah was right there at the bar and had coordinated for the bartender make our favorite drinks ready when we arrived. The ceremony was in the courtyard where they have a newly built pergola, and Sarah gave us the freedom to decorate it. We dressed it up with faux flowers, greenery, and sashes of fabric. It turned out amazing. They also have a beautiful wrought iron gazebo as a great background for pictures. Inside, the ballroom is newly renovated, so everything top to bottom is new. They have nice size chandeliers with several lighting options to make the room feel just the way you want. Overall, we feel we got an excellent value for what we paid. Ballroom was beautiful and just what we were looking for, there were numerous compliments on the food, and Sarah was great throughout the process. Final note, the outside is not as nice as the inside, but it is a work in process. This place is a diamond in the rough!
