Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Tucked in the heart of Peoria Park's 320 lush acres you'll find two sweet venues, each perfect for rustic-chic weddings. Pricing is refreshingly affordable, with an incredibly generous vendor policy that allows you to choose a team that matches your vision... and is perfect for the DIY-loving couple.
- The Schoolhouse Chapel is bursting with vintage charm—your vows can even be accompanied by the clang of the antique church bell! Built in the 1850s, the Chapel is clad in weathered wood, with built-in pews and quaint multi-paned windows that let natural light spill in.
- Grand receptions unfold in the Prairie Shelter, a sweet wood pavilion surrounded by a sweep of lawn and plenty of greenery for a secluded feel. It's the perfect setting for an al fresco event with no weather worries. Between the "I do"s and dancing the night away, you'll want to explore the park with your photographer, snapping dreamy portraits as golden hour glows.
