We want more of a restaurant venue than a banquet hall I think. and I think we may have found one! It's called Public Landing Restaurant, in Lockport, IL. I actually went to an AHR there years ago, before I really knew much about destination weddings. Adorable old building, right on a canal, with screened in porches, patios, old stonework... FI and I are checking it out next weekend. If the price is right, we'll book it! :-)
