Outdoor Wedding Sites

Hi Everyone,

My best friend is getting married and I am helping her find some information. She is looking for a spot, preferable western suburbs, where she can have the ceremony and reception outside OR just the ceremony outside. She wants to have the ceremony and reception at the sam place.

Any good recs would be super helpful.

Thank you!

    We're getting married at Cantigny, which has outdoor ceremony sites and an indoor reception location. Danada House also does outdoor ceremonies and has an indoor location. Morton Arboretum is the same.

    Hi there,
    Our reception is at White Pines Golf Club in Bensenville and they have a gorgeous outdoor space for weddings.  As an FYI, the place is very affordable and the staff has been amazing to work with.  They are incredibly accommodating and so nice.  HTH!

    Not sure how far west you are looking, but the Stonebridge Country Club in Aurora has a beautiful spot for an outdoor ceremony and you can do cocktail hour outside on their patio which is very nice. The reception is right inside the clubhouse, you do not have to be a member to have your wedding there and their prices are affordable.  Good luck!

    Not at all.  Their minimum for Saturdays is 140 and it is 100 on Friday and Saturday.
