Chicago House’s ‘Wrapture’ Varieties of Veuve Clicquot Champagne, a chocolate fountain, ice sculptures and candle lit tables adorned with red rose petals helped ring in the holiday season at the 3rd Annual Champagne Wrapture fundraiser for Chicago House, Dec. 16th in the Penthouse of Chicago’s Hotel 71. The event, which sold out a week and a half ahead of time, bustled with more than 260 cheery guests, ready to bid on designs and celebrity signed bottles of Veuve Clicquot Champagne. Thirty local designers and 24 local and national celebrities, including the cast of Will & Grace, Smokey Robinson, Alanis Morisette, Jerry Springer and Gary Sinise contributed signatures and design work to create the 40 bottles of bubbly which were silent and live auctioned off to benefit Chicago House’s AIDS housing services. The event raised $35,000.
