Facilities and Amenities
Stan Mansion is among the most unique venues in the City of Chicago. An early 20s Logan Square historic landmark, this magnificent manor accommodated throughout the years a long list of significant human gatherings. Situated in the intersection of Kedzie and Fullerton, two major traffic arteries of this bustling metropolis, Stan Mansion has a remarkable architecture and is quite probably among the most photographed classic buildings in the city.

Stan Mansion hosts any special gatherings including weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, anniversaries, theater performances and concerts. Its majestic personality will provide a remarkable setting for your extraordinary occasion.

At the Stan Mansion we offer you the possibility of fully customizing your own event .The beautiful Ballroom on the second floor accommodates up to 300 guests for a sit-down event and up to 400 guests for a cocktail party.

Our Cocktail Room has two built in bars and an intimate, refined look. This space is perfect for your cocktail hour or a small event of up to 50 guests. On the first floor of the Mansion the sizable entrance can also be used for your cocktail hour. During the warm season, the large front garden lavishly decorated with flowers provides a romantic entrance but also a cool temporary retreat from the clamor of the party.

A second large room on the first floor can become your ceremony location and is perfect for corporate events and team building. This versatile space can become a gym or a sanctuary, a rehearsal hall or a ballroom, excellent for a fundraiser but also for a ping-pong tournament.

***** Alex- Wedding 12/31/2009

I absolutely loved the mansion. The beautiful building and the idea of customizing your event is truly unique. For my wedding i had the time of my life. The owner, Cera, was extremely nice and very helpful. She walked us through the entire setup and she recommended amazing vendors. When i saw the final product, i was amazed. That was the most beautiful event i ever saw. I highly recommend Stan Mansion for your next event.

***** Dan & Mellisa  Wedding  12/05/2009

I worked with Cera at the Stan Mansion to create the dream wedding reception.

My husband and I were on the verge of canceling even having a reception because we could not find a nice venue that we could afford. The Stan Mansion allowed us the flexibility to bring in any vendor of our choosing, allowing us to save THOUSANDS in liquor and food costs. The ambiance was easy to create because the building has so much character.

We had a beach themed reception for 200 people a week ago. We are still being asked how we ever found this place and complemented on the lighting, the bar set up, and the ease of valet parking.

Cera was just wonderful to work with. She was so helpful in recommending some of the most professional and easy to work with vendors. She also provided so many great recommendations at times it was like having a wedding planner.

I just love this venue and highly recommend it to anyone looking to host a unique and once-in-a-lifetime experience.

***** JH  "Not a wedding..."  05/09/2009

Stan Mansion, and Cera in particular, were the highlight of our wedding-vendor experience. I do not usually give perfect scores, but there is nothing else I could possibly do in this case: Stan Mansion was perfect.

We had a very non-traditional, queer not-a-wedding ceremony, with a completely unique ceremony and reception. Cera not only handled all of our requests and needs beautifully, she was excited and supportive and fantastic to work with. She understood our budget, worked with us to find vendors who could do what we wanted at a price we could afford, suggested caterers and resources, and helped us when any of those relationships were difficult.

We cannot recommend this venue highly enough. Our ceremony was gorgeous, our reception perfect, our guests enchanted, and our not-a-wedding the most remarkable day of our lives.

Thank you Stan Mansion and Cera for being so utterly perfect!

***** 12/05/2008  Maria  25th Anniversary

I absolutely loved the mansion. Cera was so helpful in providing ideas and solutions on such short notice. The ability to customize the mansion is one of the things that most attracted me to this location. Typically, with most banquet halls, the decor is decided for you. Using the mansion, you are given a clear canvas with which you can be as creative as you'd like. I celebrated a 25th anniversary and had the time of my life.
