   This year's Chicago Bridal Showcase brings you the feel of historic Mackinac Island - and a chance to honeymoon there for free..
   The Showcase, in its fourth year, will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, February 26, 2006, at the northern suburb's newest wedding venue, Astoria Banquet and Conference Center in the Plaza Verde Shopping Center, 1375 West Dundee Road, Buffalo Grove, Illinois. Astoria offers impeccable banquet rooms, impressively designed to set the scene for all special events. Featuring magnificent crystal chandeliers and imported silk-damask wall coverings, the Grand Ballroom is distinctly dramatic and refined and its eloquence will be paired for the Showcase with décor reminiscent of the quaint, traditional feel of northern Michigan's Mackinac Island.
   The Showcase will feature a fashion show with couture fashions from upscale North and West Suburban wedding boutiques. Exclusive Chicago area shops and services catering to brides and grooms will include the finest wedding, travel and health and beauty consultants; purveyors of flowers, stationary and invitations, linens, limousines, jewelry, and music. There will also be caterers, the finest bakeries, photographers and videographers.
   In keeping with the day's theme, a lucky couple will win a relaxing week for two at the Mission Point Resort on historic Mackinac Island. The resort, and the traditional setting of the Island, make a wonderful site for weddings and honeymoons. Charming ceremonial sites make any wedding truly special and Mission Point's enchanting Water's Edge Gazebo is a magical backdrop for photographs.
   With accommodations for every member of your bridal party, and a setting no other hotel on Mackinac Island can provide, a wedding at Mission Point is destined to be a smashing success.
   There is no charge to attend the Showcase, and parking is free.
