Future brides and wedding enthusiasts are invited to explore the full spectrum possibility at theWit Wedding Showcase on Thursday, October 17, 2024. Held in the show-stopping private function spaces at theWit, a Hilton Hotel, Chicago in partnership with Chicago Style Weddings magazine, this exclusive event promises an evening filled with inspiration, elegance, and the latest trends in the wedding industry. Doors open at 4:30 p.m., with the showcase taking place from 5 to 7 p.m. Cost is $30 per person and tickets are available for purchase online here.
The evening will shine a spotlight on all the must-consider components for those planning the Big Day:
Make It Fashion. Look no further than leading bridal boutiques including Grace + Ivory, Bella Bianca and Dimitra's Bridal Couture. Each will present an array of breathtaking bridal, bridesmaid and mother-of-the-bride looks in a roaming fashion showcase – the ideal opportunity for brides-to-be to envision their dream wedding looks! Representatives from each salon will be in attendance to answer questions and book private appointments, and Feeling Pretty Inc. will provide model hair and makeup reflecting the latest bridal looks.
Make It Beautiful. Guests can indulge in custom beauty experiences with Legendary Spa, offering exquisite nail art applications onsite. Spa @theWit, the property’s onsite full-service spa, will also be on hand offering mini services.
Make It Delicious. With a culinary experience curated by award-winning Chef Steve Chiappetti – who oversees all culinary offerings at theWit – attendees will find inspiration in the latest food, beverage and dessert trends. Passed items and interactive food stations will abound! Cakes and other sweet treats by Chicago favorite Bittersweet Pastry Shop will wow with every bite. Guests will also enjoy beverage stations sponsored by Moët Hennessy, with a selection of must-have wines, spirits, cocktails and even mocktails.
Culinary displays will span both second and third floor spaces. While the third-floor ballroom will reflect selections perfectly suited for a wedding reception of any size, the second floor Gateway – whose downtown Chicago views are unparalleled – will showcase the possibilities for more intimate weddings as well as wedding brunches, bridal showers and more.
Make It Colorful. Ashland Addison Florist will dazzle attendees with custom floral arrangements and tablescape ideas inspired by Future Dusk, named one of the 2025 colors of the year, setting the tone for exquisite weddings. Both live acoustic music and DJ entertainment artfully selected by The Music Trust will keep the vibes high, while lighting and sound by KVL Audio Visual Services will add to a stunning atmosphere. More surprises are in store with dramatic entertainment, visual photo opportunities and more.
Throughout the evening, brides and their loved ones can take in theWit’s unparalleled capabilities by seeing the four-diamond property’s vibrant event spaces come to life. Guided property tours will give them a rare peek at guest rooms available for blocks, including larger-than-life suites, and even ROOF on theWit, the hotel’s captivating, nationally acclaimed year-round rooftop lounge. theWit’s event experts will also be on hand to share details about the range of wedding packages available to suit occasions of all sizes.
