The Chicago Botanic
Garden's fourth annual
Summer Dinner Dance raised nearly $500,000 for the
Garden's education and research programs. More
than 500 glamorous partygoers from Chicago and the
North Shore attended the black-tie soiree on June
22. The Committee for The Summer Dinner Dance was
chaired by Mr. and Mrs.
Andrew McNally IV and Mr. and Mrs.
Michael Canmann.
The Joe Vito Trio played as the co-chairs greeted
guests in the Esplanade, where cocktails and hors d'oeuvres
were served. A topiary heron made of white daisies
graced a runway leading to Waterside Terrace and breathtaking
views of the Smith Fountain. Calihan Catering, Inc.
catered dinner, served in an elegant pavilion decorated
with silver chandeliers filled with white daisies.
Bill Heffernan, Chicago's renowned floral and
event designer, along with event co-chairs, created
the beautiful setting. The City Lights Orchestra played
for guests while they danced late into the night. Two
thousand luminaries lit the paths through the gardens
to Lake Cook Road.
