GARFIELD PARK 
CONSERVATORY

The Garfield Park Conservatory is the best backdrop for any plant or nature lover — specifically rainforest or dessert cactus aficionados. This glass event space is one of the largest gardens in the world, fit for a smaller, more intimate wedding or event.

MAE
DISTRICT

The Mae District is Food For Thought's very own venue. Located in Chicago's motor district, Mae District is an elegant and charming venue for your next event. With lots of natural light and a fairly blank slate, this historic building can match the wedding theme or branded reception of your dreams.

ADLER
PLANETARIUM
