Powered by La Marca Prosecco, the event was held on a beautiful June day, allowing guests to enjoy both the indoor and outdoor space that included an overhang patio. The group had access to the entire venue on the 27th floor of theWit Hotel with sweeping views of the Chicago skyline.

After mingling over La Marca Prosecco mimosas, guests sat down for round-table introductions and a family-style meal. They enjoyed a smoked salmon platter and bagel bar to start, as well as a selection of pastries and refreshing citrus and caprese salads. The delicious main dishes included pretzel rolls with egg, chicken sausage, maple apple butter and aged cheddar, croissants with egg, peppered bacon, baby swiss and tomato marmalade, and cherry-almond vanilla streusel French toast. And a summer brunch wouldn’t be complete without indulging in an ice cream bar for dessert.
