June Happenings at MDE

June 26, 2021

Welcome to June, amici miei!

We are well underway with wedding season this year and could not be more grateful to be back at work, doing what we love! Can you believe that we are halfway through June?! It is almost unbelievable that July is right around the corner. 

So far this year we have found ourselves in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin and the very heart of Chicago for some incredible weddings, and we are eternally grateful to our clients, fellow creatives and our families for all of the immense support as we continue to make our way towards recovery. 

We have weddings every month for the remainder of the year and are steadily booking up for 2022 so if you are looking for an incredible destination wedding experience, or dreaming of a classic Chicago wedding, we want to hear all about it! Reach out today and let’s chat.

Join Michelle in Miami


Michelle is thrilled to be speaking at The Special Event in Miami next month! Her presentation will be on how to inherit a team and make it your own. Inspired by her personal experience moving into a leadership role within her family’s restaurant the last two years, this is a not-to-miss moment where Michelle will share personal insights, experiences and knowledge on how to walk into the challenges that all leaders face when walking into a new position. Check out a sneak peek here!

We are SO excited to have designed and produced an event celebrating both the 80th anniversary of our family’s Chicago restaurant and pride month, and are absolutely over the moon to be featured in Eater Chicago as one of ten places to dine during pride.
