Wedding Ceremony Harpist, Katherine Legge Lodge, Hinsdale

It's hard to see, but there is an arch back there, and a wonderful view
of the golf course once you are at the arch!

I've always been inside at this location, so it was a real revelation to be out back under the tall trees! Such a gorgeous location, and very comfortable for the guests, too. The bride was drawn to some of my R and B repertoire, so I got to spend the afternoon playing Beyonce (Dangerously in Love and Halo), Stevie Wonder (Ribbon in the Sky and You are the Sunshine of My Life) and Luther Vandross (Always and Forever and Here and Now). A wonderful way to spend a summer afternoon!

See? Tall trees and great shade!

Ceremony Harpist, Katherine Legge Lodge, Hinsdale

The wonderful upstairs room at the Lodge

I've played downstairs at the Katherine Legge Lodge before, but this was my first trip upstairs. It was an absolutely beautiful room for a late fall wedding. The only drawback is that it is not handicap accessible (no elevator to the upstairs), so you will want to keep that in mind. Other than that, the facility is really amazing. Lots of comfortable rooms in a large park setting. It is a Hinsdale Park District Facility, and their website has a lot of great pictures showing the possibilities at this venue.

The bride chose "Marry Me" by Train for her processional, and it worked beautifully. Her sons walked her down the aisle, and there wasn't a dry eye in the place!
