The Lytle House

The Lytle House is an intimate, family-owned event venue in Chicago's Uptown neighborhood offering 2,800 square feet of flowing indoor-outdoor space with a maximum capacity of 80 guests. Housed in a restored industrial building featuring exposed brick, high ceilings, factory windows, and a private landscaped courtyard, the venue specializes in weddings, ceremonies, bridal showers, engagement parties, rehearsal dinners, baby showers, and professional events. The owners provide an on-site event manager for the full day to coordinate vendors, manage setup and cleanup, and ensure a smooth celebration—with transparent pricing, an approved caterer list, and thoughtful amenities including custom tables and chairs, a retractable glass garage door, and AV equipment included in every rental.
