Celebrating in Dunning
Where Dunning hosts use dinnerware
Dunning is car-dependent, so parking is easier than in the denser lakefront neighborhoods, but Harlem and Irving Park can jam on Saturdays. Park district fieldhouses and parish halls round out the event spaces. We ask for your address, alley access and guest count up front so we can plan a smooth load-in and put together an accurate quote. That keeps your day smooth.
Dunning sits on the far Northwest Side, between Irving Park Road and Belmont Avenue, with the villages of Norridge and Harwood Heights nearby along Harlem Avenue. Its streets are lined with brick bungalows and other classic Chicago homes, and the Harlem-Irving Plaza mall in neighboring Norridge is a well-known nearby shopping destination. A long-settled mix of families gives the neighborhood a warm, traditional character.
Bungalow and Georgian backyards
Roomy city lots with alley garages suit communions, graduations and cookouts.
Dinnerware here: At home, rental china means no dishwashing: plates go back scraped but unwashed. Plan a spot for the return crates.
Irving Park Road and Harlem Avenue banquet halls
Halls host weddings, anniversaries and retirement dinners with large guest counts.
Dinnerware here: Parks rarely suit real china because of breakage and cleanup; consider rentals only for a seated dinner under a pavilion.
