Hotel Baker Wedding Showcase
Posted by Tamara Sims | Filed under Wedding Venues
We had the pleasure of spending our Sunday afternoon at Hotel Baker’s Wedding showcase, and would like to thank Liz Weber and her wonderful staff for putting together such an amazing event for local wedding vendors and future Brides & Grooms. Guests enjoyed a wine tasting in the Rainbow Room which was beautifully decorated in purple (our favorite color!), by Liz and her staff along with a gorgeous Head Table Centerpiece provided by Town & Country Gardens. Something 2 Dance 2 DJ Entertainment provided the music in the Rainbow Room and was joined by Kelly Vanderploeg Photography.
The Waterfront Room overlooking the lovely Fox River was all abuzz with a slide show provided by Alex Claney Photgraphy and a delicious ice cream sundae bar provided by Coldstone Creamery. Guests enjoyed stepping outside on the Waterfront Patio to enjoy their wine or ice cream.
The St. Charles Room was also filled with wonderful wedding vendors. Rolf’s Patisserie provided gourmet pastries and Wedding Cake for all to enjoy. Jim from JP Jewelers provided custom designed rings, and Classic Chassis provided the most beautiful Red Rolls Royce parked right outside of Hotel Baker for our couples to check out.
I speak from true experience to the level of dedication the team at Hotel Baker provides as Jay & I renewed our vows here for our “10 Seasons of Love” Anniversary Party in 2007.

Part of my mission in creating this Blog is to spotlight various reception locations to help future brides and grooms during the initial Wedding Planning process. Each month I will conduct a “Vendor Spotlight” showcasing the many wonderful Wedding professionals our team at Something 2 Dance 2 and Elegant Event Lighting works with throughout the year.
Sara Boal, CMP is the Catering Sales Manager at Hilton Garden Inn in St. Charles, IL. Sara works very closely with each Bride & Groom providing a very hands-on approach from the beginning of the planning through the wedding reception. Our brides love working with Sara and appreciate her dedication and attention to detail in creating the wedding of their dreams. Her property has received a Guest Loyalty Award and the Hilton Brand is ranked #1 in the U.S. for Customer Service.

We had the opportunity to showcase our business at Bolingbrook Golf Club’s annual Bridal Fair on Sunday January 24, and would like to thank Taryn and Jill and their amazing staff for a wonderful day. The Ballroom was filled with 39 quality vendors including florists, room decor, specialty linens, photographers and DJ’s, to name a few. Each Bride & Groom were treated as VIP’s to a delicious tasting of mouthwatering Hors d’ Oeuvres prepared by the Chef along with Champagne to really set the mood for their upcoming special day! Jay and I truly enjoyed sharing ideas with Brides and Grooms on how to make their wedding day fun and memorable.
