Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Set on two acres of impeccably manicured grounds in the Historic District of Oak Park, this exquisite brick mansion evokes a classic English country estate. Receptions can be held in any of the home's gracious spaces, which include an elegant entry, paneled library, dining room, and solarium—and you won't want to miss photos on the grand staircase.
- Intimate celebrations are lovely in the glass greenhouse, while larger gatherings can flow out onto the adjacent, lighted patio or take advantage of the expansive lawns and seasonal tent. Your guests will love wandering the picturesque property, which encompasses a woodland walk, waterfall fountain, and kitchen and cutting gardens.
- Rental fees are refreshingly affordable and come with ample amenities: prep rooms for the couple, on-site parking, and the Mansion's staff on hand to assist with your event. With access to the first two floors of the home and the grounds, there's flexibility in how you design your day, whether you envision an intimate dinner in the Mansion or greenhouse or a grand soiree that flows between indoors and out.
