Cantigny invites brides to vendor show

Cantigny Park and Cantigny Golf invite brides-to-be and their guests to the fifth annual Cantigny Bridal Show.

The event is from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 27, at the Cantigny Park Visitors Center.

At the show, guests can finalize their wedding plans all in one place or just gather ideas. A wide variety of local vendors will be exhibiting their goods and services — photographers, engravers, formal wear shops, ice sculptors, florists, DJs, hotels, limos and more. Guests also will see simulated room setups and table décor.

Cantigny’s award-winning culinary team will sample a wide range of menu items, including soups, hors d’oeuvres, late night snacks, dessert/pastry table and wedding cake. Wine and champagne also will be served.

Many couples choose to have their wedding ceremonies in Cantigny’s formal gardens. The ceremony sites are adjacent to Le Jardin, the restaurant and banquet room in the Visitors Center with space for up to 250 guests. At Cantigny Golf, couples may exchange vows on an outdoor terrace with panoramic views and then enjoy their reception in the Red Oak Room, which accommodates 150 guests.

The Cantigny Bridal Show is free for brides already booked at Cantigny and a guest. The cost for others is $25 per person.

Advance registration is requested. Calling (630) 260-8103 or email mdeckworth@cantigny.org.
