Spotlight on Chicago: Chicago Weddings and The Food Network

What is it about Chicago and the Food Network? First, the Second City’s favorite wedding caterers The Hearty Boys won the first season of the Food Network’s hit series “The Next Food Network Star,” leading to their own series, cookbooks, and a new restaurant.

More recently the Cake Girls of Roscoe Village competed in the network’s Food Network Challenge Series and now have their own show on WE. Located nearby, the somewhat punkier and totally organic Bleeding Heart Bakery. As far as we know, they haven’t been on the Food Network yet, but there’s always tomorrow!

When it comes to wedding vendors, it’s clear Chicago really is “The City That Works!”
