About The Wentworth Club

A lakeside country club with a great lawn, veranda dining and a ballroom wrapped in windows.

Set in Lake Forest, The Wentworth Club pairs a distinctive country club setting with a planning team that runs one celebration at a time. Ceremonies take place in the venue’s signature space, with cocktails flowing into a reception room dressed around your palette — never a template look.

Couples book The Wentworth Club for its light, its logistics and its calm: step-free guest routes, a private suite for preparations and a coordinator on the day who has run this room a hundred times.
