"My husband and I had our Welcome Dinner at Twisted Laurel in their upstairs loft space for our wedding weekend and WOW! This was a destination wedding with all guests (and ourselves) being from Chicago and we were SO impressed! The food was delicious, the space was perfect, and the staff were extremely helpful. We worked with Sarah specifically and she could not have made the experience easier. THANK YOU twisted laurel for starting our wedding weekend off strong! We cannot wait to visit again soon."
