THE FAMILY
We are the Stahl family. As a mother-daughter trio, you will most likely interact with two of us if not all three of us. The story of how we got here is pretty unique. We can't wait to hear your story.

When Creamery 201 first opened, I spent my time steaming hundreds of tablecloths and clearing tables at the end of the night. These days I can be found serving drinks, lighting candles, or helping with marketing. Cheers!

My primary role is being a venue coordinator for weddings. If you book a wedding with Creamery 2o1 I will help pick out your decor, send you down the aisle, and pack up your gifts up at the end of the night. I look forward to seeing your wedding vision come to life.
How Creamery 201 came to life
In 2016, Abby and her now-husband were searching for a venue to host their winter wedding. They stumbled across a "for lease" sign in the window of a beautiful brick building. After a few short months of remodeling and endless research Creamery 201 came to life. Abby's engagement turned into a growing wedding venue and career change for Katie. Since our opening in 2017, we have hosted weddings, corporate events, fundraisers, and other special events.
VENUE HISTORY
home is where
the heart is
In 1920, Creamery Package of Chicago built a large five-story building. Over the years it has housed many different manufacturing businesses, each leaving its mark on the unique building. Almost floor-to-ceiling windows surround the space, revealing views of Main Street. In the middle of the building, you will find an opening and mezzanine to the third floor. Easy access is provided for all catering and business functions with the use of our freight elevator, two stairways, and an additional elevator.
