This home was built by an admirer of Frank Lloyd Wright’s, Emil Bach. It’s an iconic structure in Rogers Park, known for its prairie-style detailing and Japanese-inspired aesthetic. It’s been on the Chicago landmarks list since 1977. Crain’s Chicago Business named Emil Bach House among the “Best New Event Spaces” in Chicago, and with stunning interior and calming exterior (Japanese Tea Garden, anyone?) – this destination has a wealth of opportunities to fit your unique event, from outdoor weddings to indoor corporate board retreats.
There is something magical about this destination, and the backdrop definitely adds charm and iconic beauty to your event. As the team in the home will tell you, the space is “capable of hosting both larger and more intimate gatherings, the home is available for small meetings and indoor parties. Outside, a tent is set up in the gardens for an alfresco afternoon or to provide cover for an evening reception, while the tea house offers ideal shelter for guests to mingle when they want to sit down and relax.” We know you’ll love it.
