We want to welcome out of town and visiting guest to our favorite hometown bar! This hole in the wall, no frills, cash only dive bar means a lot to us. It reminds us of a few of our favorite bars back in Charleston where we met. A little taste of Chicago food will be provided as well as beverages on us!

Cocktail Attire: Wear cocktail dresses, LBDs, dressy jumpsuits, and dark jackets and slacks.
We are asking our guest if able, to park at the public free parking lots located downtown. Most of them are a quick 5 minute walk and will also be closer to the reception venue. Lots D, E, and F are the closest lots to both our house and reception location. https://www.villageofgrayslake.com/DocumentCenter/View/6529/Parking-Map-and-Brochure-2019?bidId=

We are planning an outing Saturday after our wedding but haven't yet locked anything down. It would be fun to take everyone into the city by train to explore a few of our favorite spots or take an architecture boat tour of the city. We will let you know once we figure this out!
