About the Building:

Room 1520 is a recent addition to the collection of West Loop loft-like wedding and event venues that brings a unique flavor and atmosphere to the area. A spacious and refined loft building, this venue was once a historical gear factory. Room 1520 features high ceilings, polished cement floors, tall portrait windows and crisp, white-washed brick walls – the look of the venue is modern & minimalistic. The open layout allows for a lot of flexibility and is ideal for any couple looking host both the ceremony and reception in the same space. On par size-wise with other West Loop venues, Room 1520 features modern amenities and detailing such as private street entrances and a separate area for brides to get ready, this area can also become a luxurious and separate lounge or quiet space.

Fun Fact: Room 1520’s second floor area features an open-floor plan kitchen where clients have brought in chefs from all around the world to provide live cooking demonstrations.

About the Fabric:

The foyer, where guests will arrive, features an artisan staircase which leads up to the 4000 square foot main space. This main area features 11 foot tall ceilings, Italian crystal chandeliers, and large luxurious bathrooms.
