About The Monte Bello Estate
The Monte Bello Estate is a venue for those looking for more than the “cookie cutter” wedding, social event, or corporate event – they are wanting something unique and intimate, with elegant simplicity. From the exclusive 55-acres of picturesque ponds and waterfalls, to the tented glasshouse adorned with crystal chandeliers and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the early American Oak trees and restored native prairieland, you can create your own personalized event. With indoor and outdoor ceremony and event spaces, The Monte Bello Estate provides the most charming setting with our modern estate and breathtaking grounds that are the perfect backdrop for your unforgettable event. MBE helps simplify planning by offering in-house food and beverage packages including open bar services, butler passed hors d’ Oeuvres, a three-course dinner with wine service, and rentals like square dining tables, Chiavari chairs, China, glassware, flatware, a variety of linen offerings, and attentive wait staff and bartending services. This is where it all begins.

Abbey Casteel
Director of EventsGrowing from within the company, I have had the pleasure of working at the estate since 2008. I have benefited from floating through several other positions before becoming the director of sales and events by being able to fully understand the urgency and detail that goes into making each and every event a success from all aspects. Working hands-on with my clients and executing each event to reflect their individual wants and needs is something I truly love.
