The Hotel Baker wedding venue and hotel was originally built in 1928. It is now on the national registry of historic places. This riverfront hotel is woman owned and known for its exquisite architecture, decadent 1920’s feels, swanky soirees, and old Gatsby style gatherings. It offers several options for reception rooms and ceremony sites depending on the size and style of your wedding. The historic splendor matched with the scenic Fox River and spectacular cuisine can make your fantasy wedding dreams come true.
Located in St. Charles, Illinois this Chicago western suburbs wedding venue is a great choice for everyone. It is located so close to amazing restaurants and bars while conveniently located near the highways. Also, who doesn’t love the fox river area and everything it has to offer.
Outdoor ceremonies at Hotel Baker wedding venue can be held in the Rose Garden or on the Waterfront Patio while receptions are traditionally held in the Rainbow Room or Waterfront Ballroom.
Hotel Baker Wedding Rose Garden + Waterfront Patio
The Rose Garden at Hotel Baker sits right along the fox river in a private area behind the hotel. The garden was designed after a traditional English rose garden and is equal parts beauty and bloom. The colorful rose petals and green hedges offer an incredible backdrop for all of your wedding portraits and bridal party photos. If you are looking for a great first look location, this is your spot.
The Waterfront Patio overlooks the Fox River and is an amazing cocktail hour area for a warm weather Chicago suburbs wedding.

The Rainbow room at The Hotel Baker Wedding venue is the main attraction. The unique oval shape and old world elegance come together to give you the romantic charm you need for your western suburbs wedding. Also, the lighted dance floor can change colors to match your aesthetic. You are in awe as soon as you walk through the doors because of the circular balcony and richly detailed mahogany columns. It is a picture perfect setting for your Chicago wedding.
The two tiered Rainbow Room at Hotel Baker wedding venue is so unique. I have not been to another wedding venue in the Chicagoland area with multi-colored lights shining through the dance floor.
Waterfront Ballroom
The Waterfront Ballroom at hotel baker is a great small wedding reception location. However, it is also a great cocktail hour spot for larger weddings. Large windows overlook the Fox River.
