LondonHouse Chicago Wedding Cost Guide (2027)

Planning a wedding at LondonHouse Chicago? As wedding videographers who’ve filmed there, here’s the realistic cost breakdown.

Venue Rental Fees

LondonHouse prices weddings as per-person packages rather than a separate room rental, for guest counts between 50 and 190 in the Juliette Ballroom. There’s no confirmed standalone ceremony fee published; if you’re marrying on-site (ballroom, rooftop, or the Cupola), confirm current pricing directly with the hotel’s events team.

Food and Beverage

Two package tiers are currently offered, priced the same peak and off-peak:

• Elegance package: $220 per person – 4-hour deluxe bar, 4 passed hors d’oeuvres, a 3-course plated dinner with a choice of 3 entrées, wedding cake, and a champagne toast.
• Luxury package: $260 per person – 5-hour premium bar, 5 passed hors d’oeuvres, a 4-course dinner, and the same closing elements.

Both packages include linens (30 color options), chairs, and votives. Pricing is quoted “plus tax and service charge,” though the exact percentage isn’t published; confirm current rates with the hotel.

Other Costs to Budget

Valet parking: $40 for up to 8 hours (no self-parking, no in-and-out privileges).

Vendors: photography, videography, florals, and music are separate from the venue. No outside catering or alcohol is permitted.

Sample Budget: 150 Guests, Elegance Package

• Package (150 × $220): $33,000
• Estimated service charge and tax (~25%): $8,250
• Total: roughly $41,000, before rooftop add-ons, upgrades to the Luxury package, and outside vendors.

Based on the weddings we’ve filmed there, most LondonHouse celebrations land in the $40,000 to $90,000+ range all-in, depending on guest count, season, and rooftop use.

Is LondonHouse Chicago Worth It?

We’ve filmed four weddings here. Naomi & Erik and Maddie & Brian both had first looks at the famous rooftop Cupola before their receptions in the Juliette Ballroom. Jessica & Dawid paired a St. Hyacinth Basilica ceremony with a rooftop first look and reception here, and Rebecca & Pat used the Presidential Suite and Cupola for portraits before their summer reception. The building sits directly above the river with the Wrigley Building and DuSable Bridge as a backdrop, so a wedding film gets skyline in every direction without needing to leave the block.

Can you get married in the Cupola?
Yes, the Cupola hosts intimate ceremonies and elopements and is a signature first-look location for larger weddings. It books quickly, so ask early.

How can we save money at LondonHouse?
Choose the Elegance package over Luxury, keep your guest count closer to the smaller end of the ballroom’s range, and confirm what’s bundled into your per-person rate before signing.
