The town of St. John is a well-planned, peaceful community, and as it is just 24 miles southeast of Chicago, you can easily take a day trip to visit nearby shopping centers and attractions.

However, St. John has plenty of its own resources to help you with the wedding planning process, as it is home to many privately owned specialty shops and traditional retail stores.

Cedar Mill Limousine can make sure you and your wedding party travel in style, as it offers affordable wedding packages, bachelor and bachelorette party packages, and transportation services to and from O'Hare International Airport, Midway International Airport, and Indianapolis International Airport.

For bridal gowns, accessories, bridesmaid dresses, and wedding shoes, make sure you stop into Char's The Wedding Shoppe, which has over 30 years of experience in the wedding industry.

Branya's Bakery is the place to go for delicious custom wedding cakes, as well as goodies for wedding brunches, such as almond bear claws, homemade donuts, fresh muffins, and Danishes.

St. John was on CNN/Money's recent list of "America's Best Small Towns" and has plenty of beautiful parks for you to enjoy during your free time. Major parks include Heron Lake Park, Prairie West Park, and Saddlecreek Park. You can also visit The Shrine of Christ's Passion or go shopping at the local Farmers' Market.
