Sara & Rick's 'Unique' Wedding Reception 10-2-10

While the weather tried to put a damper on things, the 'buzz' was ratcheted up a notch for Sara & Rick's reception. A highly energized crowd attacked the dance floor at the Grotto in Oakbrook to celebrate their nuptials. Everything about Sara and Rick's reception was unique. Even the guest register was different. It was not a book, a signing picture or photo book but consisted of card the guests filled out and inserted in a fancy, oak box. Could it be there were secret messages writtn to help guide Sara and Rick along the way to having a successful marriage?

Even the venue was unique. The Grotto, being a family-operated business, Matt and Cindy explained how they pamper their clients by imposing "no limits" on many things including the length of receptions hosted there. While known for their steaks, each guest is allowed to choose from an assortment of entree options ordered right there at their table as in a fine restaurant (but aaaah, it is! They have a restaurant and bar, too.). Incredible! I have never see that done for a wedding. I have to admit it at first I had my doubts, but they rocked right down to the smallest detail! I will definitely encourage my Loyola accounts to use their 5-star facility.
