Dinner with the DePrees is our take on a wedding celebration: an outdoor ceremony followed by cocktails, a formal seated dinner, music, and an intimate evening at Onwentsia Club. Rather than a traditional ballroom reception with a dance floor, we’re creating the feeling of an elegant private dinner party centered around great food, conversation, and time together.
Please arrive between 5:00 and 5:15 PM. The ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30 PM.
Yes. The ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and celebration will all take place at Onwentsia Club.
The ceremony is planned to take place outdoors, weather permitting. An indoor alternative will be available in the event of inclement weather.
Formal dinner party attire. Men to wear a suit jacket and a tie at the club, and ladies to wear elevated cocktail attire or long dresses. The ceremony will take place outdoors; we recommend a light layer with the weather. The bride's only rule: Just don't wear white! :-)
Children who are included in the celebration will be specifically named on the formal invitation.
Cocktails, dinner, and the evening celebration will immediately follow the ceremony at Onwentsia Club. Live jazz and celebrations continue after our dinner as well!
Yes! Meet us at the Pellegrini home (450 Oak Ridge Lake Bluff, IL 60044) for coffee + brunch snacks on Sunday morning!
