Covid 19 Update
To Our Friends and Family,
It is cruelly ironic that the theme of our wedding, 1920s era prohibition, has become more of a reality for us in ways we never thought possible. From an original 500+ guests list, we have made cut after cut, gone through 3 different reception halls, and a multitude of different ideas, trying to be as nimble as possible.
With all this happening, it became quite clear to us that we cannot rely on our legislators to guarantee any type of security for our date. It was decided to scale the wedding back as far as we could; less than 10% of our original guest list. Therefore, if anything else changes for the worse, the least amount of people will be negatively impacted.
Don't fret though! We have resolved that as soon as the restrictions are lifted the party shall commence! A great banquet in our honor will take place, and all will be asked to join!
Until then, take care and be safe! Thank you so much for understanding and support!
Love,
Rachel & Tony
Question
Whats the new plan?
Answer
We will be taking our vows in front of the Lord at our home parish of St. Christina followed by taking a river boat cruise in downtown Chicago with 48 guests on October 24th. We will then take a week long honeymoon. Next year we plan on hosting a great banquet with traditional dancing, food, and drink. We then would like to go on a European trip as we had originally planned.
Question
When and Where will the banquet take place?
Answer
The plan is that next year, we will renew our vows and spend it with everyone we care about! Both Cincinnati & Chicago hold so many special people to us that we would feel incomplete if not everyone was able to laugh, love, and party with us. We plan on it being much less of a formal affair, and much more of a lighthearted celebration!
For all the days along the way
