A wedding is an incredibly intimate celebration and
 we are looking to celebrate with only our nearest
and dearest. In other words, we will be crying many tears of joy and don't want just anyone to see our ugly crying faces. With this being said, you are only permitted to bring a date if your invitation indicates so.



We love your little ones - we really do. However, due to many factors including limited space, we have decided to keep our wedding and reception an adult-only event. However, we encourage you to use this evening as a date night for yourself! We appreciate your understanding.


To RSVP, please click the RSVP tab here on our website and type in your name. All invited guests in your party will appear here to mark as ACEPT or DECLINE. Please RSVP by July 21, 2024.


If we do not get an RSVP back by the date provided, it will be marked as a “DECLINE. We will miss you celebrating with us, however, we have to provide total guest counts to our vendors in a timely manner. Due to this we cannot accept late RSVP's, we hope that you understand!


As you may notice, there is some downtime between the wedding ceremony and our cocktail hour. During this time, we encourage you to make the most of your travels by exploring' Chicago! We have provided our favorite local food, drinks, and sight-seeing recommendations on the 'Things to Do' page. You can also use this time to check into the hotel, or have a drink at the Congress Lounge, located inside the Congress plaza hotel. 


There is a Park One ( Self-Park) located right behind the hotel on 50 East Harrison St / 63 East Ida B. Wells Dr. Their overnight fee is $62.00 with no in-and-out privileges.

We also recommend to download “Spot Hero” it provides guests a variety of parking locations nearby!

If you live in Chicago or are staying at a hotel nearby we also recommend to use “Uber” or “Lyft”.
