Question

Where should I stay?

Answer

Check the travel section of the website! There is no particular room block, given we want you all to have the Chicago weekend you want - the venue is a quick uber from anywhere in the city.

Question

What will the weather be? Is it indoor or outdoor?

Answer

Well, great questions! The venue is an indoor/outdoor space and weather dependent we may be spending more time inside, but if it's nice, there is plenty of outdoor space. There is also an upstairs, where we will have a photobooth, games, and seating for folks that need a dancing break.

Question

Is there parking or a shuttle?

Answer

There is free parking at the Hayt Elementary school parking lot as well as free street parking. However, uber and lyft are also available for transportation.

Question

Answer

Yep! They sure are - both will take place at The Firehouse.

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer

If your invitation includes a plus-one, you’ll see that option on your RSVP. Otherwise, we are unable to accommodate additional guests.

Will food & drinks be served?

Answer

Yes! Our favorite Chicago restaurant, Lula Cafe is catering the evening! We will have hors d'oeuvres during happy hour as well as a buffet style dinner. Please let us know in your RSVP if you have any food allergies, and we will be sure to get you a special plate! There will also be an open bar and coffee station.
