Cheney Mansion, as featured on their website.

Most of my work tends to be on the north side of the city and in the northern suburbs, so it is a real treat when I get to work in other parts of the metropolis.  This summer, I worked with a couple who wanted to get married in Oak Park (which happens to be a favorite place of mine). It was a good excuse for me to get to know better the wonderful event venues there.

The couple ended up choosing Cheney Mansion for their wedding, and I think it was an excellent choice.  The mansion is a three-storey house with extensive grounds located very near the heart of the suburb.  It is now owned by the Park District of Oak Park.

Because it is a historic home in a residential neighborhood, there are certain restrictions that come with it, but–in my opinion–it is more than worth it.  The house itself is beautiful and well maintained.  The grounds are gorgeous.  The Park District staff who run it are exceptionally helpful and welcoming.  If you’re looking for someplace to have a wedding or other special event in the western suburbs, this is definitely one location to check out.
