Shopping enthusiasts will love the Magnificent Mile, Chicago’s premier shopping district. From high-end boutiques to flagship stores, it's a great place for retail therapy!
A family-friendly spot with a ferris wheel, restaurants, and shops. If you're in the mood for great views of Lake Michigan, be sure to take a ride on the Centennial Wheel.
One of the oldest and largest art museums in the U.S., home to iconic works like American Gothic and A Sunday on La Grande Jatte. A must-see for art lovers!
Sadly, the Cubs will be traveling this weekend but catch a White Sox game! They're fun (even when they're losing) and because they're so bad, they're usually very very cheap haha
Chicago DOES have beaches! Head to Oak Street Beach or North Avenue Beach, where you can soak up some sun, dip your toes in Lake Michigan, or rent a bike and cruise along the scenic lakeshore trail.
Catch a comedy show at Second City. Great for laughs or something chill to do to get out of the heat. This is where so many amazing comedians got their start!

A large outdoor mall about 15 minutes away, featuring upscale stores, restaurants, and beautiful green spaces. If you’re looking for some high-end shopping close to the hotel, this is the place to go.
While we love your little ones, our wedding will be an adult-only celebration. We’re excited to have you join us for a fun-filled evening and hope you can enjoy the night without any little ones in tow. Thank you for your understanding and for making arrangements to attend!
We’re so grateful for your support and would love for everyone to join us! To keep things as intimate as we can, we’re only able to extend plus ones to guests who were specifically listed on the invitation. If you’ve been invited with a guest, we can’t wait to welcome them too!
Our wedding is black tie optional, so feel free to wear something elegant and formal. Ladies, think gowns or cocktail dresses, and gents, tuxedos or a dark suit and tie will be perfect. We want you to feel fabulous and comfortable, so wear what makes you feel like a million bucks while keeping with the formal vibe of the evening.
