Map
Great all year round for sweeping views of the city. Make a reservation or rent an igloo at Christmastime. I rented an igloo for 8 for my December birthday.
LH (London House Hotel) Rooftop
Great small California vineyard. Excellent Pinot and Gewürztraminer wines and other varietals. They also do a high-end non-alcoholic grape juice, which is served in restaurants. And last, but not least, a delightful selection of sweet/dessert wines. ...
Navarro Vineyards
Beautiful, next-level floral arrangements. Can get the same floral mix in a variety of sizes. Never been unhappy with their products.
Urbanstems
Very cool simple garments covered in sparkles. Small business out of New Orleans - shirts, dusters, caftans, pants. Great for swimming pool cover ups and unfussy glam.
Fringe and Company
Another beautiful spot at this hotel for a celebration. We did this on New Year’s Day. As fun as the rooftop but with tea and treats.
London House Chicago High Tea
They specialize in all kinds of events from classes to tours. My experience has been with a hysterical burlesque show, The Empire Strips Back. Sexy, but not sexist. So per funny. We are going to a Valentines show. Will update rec afterwards.
Fever: Local Events
I've purchased the Reuben kit from them for a build-your-own party. They can do corned beef or pastrami, with all the ingredients and instructions. Delicious and fun.
Zingerman's: Deli-Style Gifts, perfect for a Celebration
Fun way to stock a party in a quick order. Supply bowls, spoons, and beverages and you have an ice cream celebration.
