Wedding Venue In DuPage County

A Rich History

Welcome to Danada House, a place where history and elegance converge to create unforgettable experiences. Nestled in the heart of DuPage County, Danada House is a premier event venue set within the picturesque surroundings of the Danada Forest Preserve. Our estate boasts a rich history, dating back to the mid-20th century, when it was the home of Daniel and Ada Rice, renowned for their contributions to the thoroughbred racing industry.

Daniel and Ada Rice were not only prominent figures in society but also generous philanthropists. Their foundation, still active today, provides assistance to needy children and families in the Chicago area. The estate is also famed for its equestrian heritage, having been the home farm to the 1965 Kentucky Derby winner Lucky Debonair, ridden by the legendary jockey Bill Shoemaker.
