Columbus Park Refectory



Maria and Greg were married on Friday, May 21 at the Columbus Park Refectory. Located at 5701 W Jackson the Refectory has three porticos that fill with sun during the summer. The grounds, created by the dean of prairie landscape architecture, contain two natural looking waterfalls, stratified stonework ledges and abundant native plant life.

Inside, Spanish-influenced architecture, arched entryways, and ornate terra cotta are quite lovely and the generous-sized Dance Hall has magnificent windows that overlook a lagoon and comes complete with a grand piano.

The photos taken with my IPhone don't do it justice but that's what I have for now.

Don't write off the Chicago Park District sites for your wedding venue, at least check out their website, they have some very nice sites.

Erica Rose of Erica Rose Photography was the photographer. I have not worked with her in the past and it was good to get to know her and I hope she will send me some professional photos later that I can post here.
