Welcome Event - Chicago Lake Cruise on Lake Michigan

8:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Follow this link to book your tickets for the September 5th, 8:15pm Skyline Lake Cruise. Tickets are $29.95 for adults, and $10.95 for children. https://tickets.shorelinesightseeing.com/WebStore/Shop/viewItems.aspx?cg=1&c=2 This is optional. We can't host this event, but just think it would be fun to go as a group with whoever would like to join us! Tour is 45 minutes, and departs from Navy Pier at 8:15pm. Enjoy some music and the sounds of Lake Michigan aboard the Groove Cruise!

Wedding Ceremony

3:30 pm - 4:00 pm

Beach/Garden/Cocktail Attire - or come as you are! Ceremony will be in the grass, so maybe rethink stilletos!

Seating will be very limited and reserved for those who need it. For everyone else, we will provide beach blankets and pillows. If you are able, feel free to bring along a camping chair for yourself or to share (please label it so we can get it back to you). We know beach blankets aren't ideal for some attire, but we'll keep the ceremony brief, so hopefully standing isn't a huge issue! There are bathrooms in the Clock Tower and a cafe is onsite to serve drinks and bites if you want to come early and enjoy the park! There is also a golf course right there if you want to do a morning round!

Sunday Funday at Hollywood Beach

1:00 pm - 6:00 pm

This is where we got engaged! This is optional for anyone that wants to have a relaxed Sunday Funday at one of the most beautiful - and diverse -beaches in Chicago. Known as Chicago's Gay Beach, you can bet we'll get a great group pic at the iconic rainbow painted pier light! Expect a friendly crowd - gay or straight, all are welcome here! We will provide soft drinks, snacks, and sandwiches. But feel free to bring a dish or snack to add to the fun if you'd like! (Not expected or required!) Bring your own adult beverage and beach towel! (Or let us know if you'd like to borrow a towel from us!)
