FAQs

Question

When should I RSVP by?

Answer

We kindly request you RSVP by February 16, 2024.

Question

Can I bring a date?

Answer

Your formal invitation will note if you may bring a date. Due to the fixed size of our small and intimate gathering, we are limited to the number of seats at dinner. We appreciate your understanding!

Question

Are kids welcome?

Answer

Similarly, the members of your invited party will be noted on your formal invitation. While we love your little ones, we are reserving this event to those 18+ due to the venue’s capacity limitations. We hope to celebrate with your kids soon!

Question

Do you have a hotel block?

Answer

Because our celebration is so small, we are not getting a hotel block. We list a few options for accommodations at various price points throughout the city, and we recommend seeking the best option for you and your party.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Yes! We kindly ask you make note of any allergies or food limitations when you RSVP. Elske’s cuisine is a bit experimental and we recommend checking out a sample fixed menu on their website to get a better picture of how we’ll be dining: https://elskerestaurant.com/food/

Question

How cold will Chicago be in March?

Answer

It depends! Late March can be quite lovely with sunny skies and temperatures in the high 40s/lower 50s, but there’s always an inevitable late winter snowstorm or blizzard in March. It’s the luck of the draw! California friends and family, we highly recommend preparing for wintery conditions. If conditions are nice, we hope to have our vow repetition ceremony outside! (With heat lamps.) Please keep that possibility in mind when plotting what to wear. :)
