Patricia Holling and Andre Lewis joined together as man and wife Sunday, August 29th. They were the winners of the 1st annual My Dream Wedding Contest. The day kicked off with the bride arriving via helicopter to a gorgeous outdoor ceremony at Midlane Resort in Wadsworth. After the ceremony, the party moved inside for the reception. The night capped off with a private dance for the couple set off by fireworks. Special thanks to all the wedding vendors who contributed to make this a memorable event.

Another photo perfect spot is Lake Katherine in Palos Heights. It features beautiful gardens, an arboretum, and walking trails adorn with trees. But the major attraction is a gorgeous water fall. Lake Katherine is located at 7402 Lake Katherine Drive in Palos Heights, IL
