MY sister went to check it out and loved it!!  She wants to have the ceremony outside and the party inside.     The day she wants is booked, is there a place that is the same as this place.  A beautiful outside ceremony site and lovely reception area?             Please let me know so that I can pass on the info.

This is a bit different than the beach, but I am getting married in Oak Brook IL at Mayslake Peabody Estate, outside in front of the Chapel and having the cocktail hour and reception inside just steps away in The Event Hall. www.mayslakepeabody.com They have been great to work with. The coordinator is Alex and he has answered every one of my e mails over the last 18 months within 12 hours. Here's some pics but the website has more.

Event Hall:


This room is full of stained glass windows, this pic doesn't do it justice.
Check out their website.
Good Luck
