June Venue Spotlight: theWit Hotel

After attending the Essence/Dark & Lovely Event at theWit Hotel I decided I should do an extensive Examiner article interviewing staff and showing all the great features of this new modern, chic and swank hotel. Located near some fabulous shopping on State street this spectacular wedding venue is more than a hotel but an "experience" and sits next to the Chicago Theater and the rest of the theater district.

With packages starting at $155.00 (includes Cocktail Hour on ROOF) there are NO room rental or ceremony fees. The capacity at theWit is 200 with full-size stage and dance floor or 400 for a cocktail style reception.  If you have an interest in hosting your ceremony at theWit, 300 of your guests can be accommodated.   Why stop there?  theWit can host all your pre and post wedding events.  Let the professional staff at this hotel with no limits assist in making your dream a reality!

Bachelorette Parties!

Let's just say you're in Chicago and looking for something else to do for your friend the bride and a few of her dearest friends.. have you considered private cooking classes?  This low-key idea comes from Give Me Some Sugar, a Chicago-based culinary instruction company, offers private, in-home cooking classes on a myriad of topics, including cake decorating and candy making. For $75 a person (for a group of 9 to 12), the company will bring everything you need to cook up a delicious treat (including all ingredients, utensils, and a 2.5 hour lesson which Chef Alekka). The best part: After the lesson is over, you and your gals can kick back and dig in while the cooking staffers do all the cleaning. For more information or to book a class, visit Give Me Some Sugar.

Another Magical Monday...

Greetings lovers of romance!!!  Where has the time gone?  Last time I blogged was May 13th when I was preparing for the live recording of Shekinah Glory Ministries.  Well that was a huge success and I hit the ground running right into other projects.
  

Wedding season is upon us and in full bloom but this past weekend I took a few days to just get out and see some things....  

My first stop on Saturday was The Wit hotel in Chicago where Soft Sheen-Carson, in partnership with Essence magazine hosted Dark & Lovely's model search for the start of it's national advertising campaign.  A panel discussion led by Fashionista/Model/Actress LisaRaye McCoy, celebrity stylist Carlton Jones and hairstylist Eric Bland addressed a variety of beauty and fashion issues from appropriate attire to spiritual well being and foundation fundamentals ranging from intimate apparel to self-esteem.  What's a fashionista event without some hot shoes?
 
Next up was the Skinny Cow - Perfect Fit event.  Veronica Webb was on site to give away free makeovers by two awesome make up artists LaToya and Tia.   Not only were the women measured for the "right fit" considering 80% of women have on the wrong size; they also enjoyed hor'dourves, a signature drink and the new Skinny Cow Ice Cream Flavors that only have 150 calories... go ice cream!
Both those events left me TIRED to say the least.  On Sunday, after meeting with my bride, I had the honor of attending the VIP book signing of Grace Ormonde at Trump Tower Chicago.  For those in the wedding industry that name rings a bell! If not, she is the Editor and Chief of Grace Ormonde Wedding Style Magazine and loves weddings.  Her new book "being in love never goes out of style" is a compilation of  more than 375 images to capture your imagination.
