From the reviews
Where to even begin? From the get-go, Monique was always very prompt, professional, and organized from start to finish. She truly went above and beyond to make sure my partner and I were comfortable! Our wedding was gothic queer wedding and we felt very welcome and in such good hands when working with Monique.
As a wedding photographer, I've had the privilege of capturing countless love stories in various venues, but The Fitzgerald is one of my favorite venues. This historic gem is a dream come true for couples seeking a timeless and elegant backdrop for their special day.
Our wedding at The Fitzgerald was a dream!! We had an absolute blast and everything ran so smoothly. Throughout our planning process Ben was available to answer our questions and work with requests we had.
As a wedding photographer I was blown away by The Fitzgerald as a wedding venue. The staff was incredible and the historic touches around the Fitzgerald itself were stunning! The ivy that grows on the outside of the building was dreamy and the bride and groom suites were spacious and filled with natural light.
Getting married at The Fitzgerald | A Venue by The Pabst Theater Group
The Fitzgerald | A Venue by The Pabst Theater Group comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
