Schaumburg's venues are built for conventions. Your wedding isn't one. An intimate venue minutes from Schaumburg for weddings of 50 to 80 guests — ceremony and reception in one room, dinner timed to the toasts, and every guest one you actually chose. International Banquet, family-owned since 2008.
A 60-guest wedding in a convention ballroom looks like a rehearsal nobody attended. The same wedding in a room scaled for it feels deliberate — every table close, every toast heard, the couple actually present for their own party. That's the wedding Schaumburg couples cross into Arlington Heights for. The broader venue picture lives on our Schaumburg-area venue overview.
Couples arrive saying 'small' and meaning very different evenings. When the guest list climbs past 80, the same room reshapes into our full reception configuration.
Ceremony at one end, dinner at the other, the flip happening during cocktails. One venue, one drive for guests, one bill — and no caravan across Schaumburg between events.
Fifty guests, real plates, real toasts, conversation at normal volume. The room holds it close instead of scattering it thin.
One grand table for the closest people you have. Family-style platters down the middle, the couple in the center of everything — the format that photographs like a painting.
Been there, married that — this time it's a party first. Bar-forward, ceremony-light, and shaped entirely by what the two of you actually enjoy.
Ceremony seating converts to dinner service while your guests hold a cocktail — one room doing both jobs without feeling like a compromise on either. The International Banquet team has staged these single-room weddings since 2008, and free parking at the door means the grandparents arrive as easily as the wedding party. Guests staying near Woodfield reach us in minutes.
Small weddings plan fast — usually a tour, a tasting, and a timeline.
Walk the room set for your actual guest count — not imagined from a convention floor plan. Most couples hold the date within the week.

Shared platters for the long-table format — the intimate wedding's signature meal, generous and unhurried.
Evening ceremony, cocktail-hour room flip, plated dinner, 3-hour open bar. $40 per person without bar service.

View Full Menu58 guests, ceremony and reception in the same room. We'd priced Schaumburg hotels and everything started at numbers built for 200 people. Here the wedding was scaled to us — and we talked to every single guest.
Second wedding for both of us. We wanted dinner and a great bar, not a pageant. The long table for 40 felt like the best dinner party of our lives, which is exactly what a wedding should be.
Our families flew in and stayed by Woodfield — ten minutes door to door. The room flip during cocktails was seamless; half our guests didn't realize the ceremony space became the dance floor.
The questions couples ask before locking the date.
Our intimate format runs 50 to 80 guests — scaled so the room feels full, not emptied. Above 80, the same space converts to our full reception layout for up to 150.
Yes — most small weddings do. Ceremony at one end, dinner at the other, and we flip the space during cocktail hour. One venue, one drive, no separate ceremony rental.
Bring whoever you want — we coordinate with all outside vendors. Catering and bar are the only in-house pieces.
Regularly — dual-cuisine menus and traditional ceremony elements woven into the timeline, quoted as custom so nothing gets shoehorned.
