The Wedding Website of Jennifer Horton and Alec Horton
I know many people are already familiar with The Windy City, AKA The Second City, even though it's second to none. I have still provided some additional travel information on where I would recommend staying based on the experience you desire. There is an unlimited number of things to do while on your weekend Getaway in Chicago, from amazing restaurants, to the beaches or river cruises. The toughest decision is narrowing them down.

Hotel

The Robey

2018 West North Avenue, Chicago, IL 60647
 

The Robey hotel is located against the backdrop of Wicker Park and Bucktown's bustling six-corner intersection. It is a lively neighborhood with plenty of restaurants and shops to walk to and has easy access to the "L" ( for non Chicagoans this stands for the elevated train system aka our metro). There is a rooftop restaurant as well as a pool. It is about a 7 min uber/drive to our house or a 25 min walk (1.2miles)

Hotel

Hyatt Place Chicago / Wicker Park

1551 West North Avenue, Chicago, IL 60622
 

This hotel is located in the Wicker Park neighborhood. Jennifer enjoyed having cocktails and now mocktails at the rooftop bar drinking in views of the Chicago skyline. This is an 8 minute uber to our house or a 38 minute walk (1.8 miles)

Hotel

The Gwen, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Michigan Avenue Chicago

521 North Rush Street, Chicago, IL 60611
 

Looking for more of a fun downtown experience? The Gwen is one of our favorite hotels to also visit while in town. It is located on Michigan avenue and easy access to all the downtown Chicago tourist attractions not to mention shopping! It also has a cute rooftop to enjoy. It is a 19 minute uber/drive to our house (4.9 miles)

Flight

Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD)

We find flying into O'Hare to be the easiest and closest for us. However if you are staying downtown you could look into Midway if that works better from your travel location.

Flight

Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW)

Chicago Midway is generally a bigger hub for southwest if that is more convenient from your city.

For all the days along the way
