The Union League Club of Chicago, at 65 West Jackson Boulevard in the Loop, is a historic downtown club with deep-blue rooms, arched windows and chandeliers that already feel ceremonial. Satin Chair Event Design Studio has designed more than one wedding here, and the work is about letting that architecture lead while the decor gives the night a clear beginning, middle and end.
At one ceremony, we lined the aisle with tall white floral pedestals and a runner that drew the eye toward the fireplace. Gold chiavari chairs faced the front. Later, white draping and a floral-lined head table with taper candles softened a formal wall. In another celebration, a white dance floor with a custom crest monogram became the center of the room, with a long floral-lined head table at the far end and banquet rounds around the floor.
We bring and install the pieces from our Naperville inventory — chairs, linens, tabletop decor, draping, staging and dance floor covers — and our crew handles setup and teardown. Full design or a la carte, every event is quoted for the room and the date. Most clients book 6 to 18 months ahead; downtown Saturdays go first.
Visit our showroom at 429 East Ogden Avenue by appointment, Monday through Saturday, 9 to 5, and bring your venue, date and inspiration. If you are planning a wedding at the Union League Club, we already know the scale of these rooms and can sketch a design that photographs well and still feels like the Club. Call (630) 504-2009 or book a free design consultation.
