Thank you so much for the beautiful oak serving board! We can’t wait to use it during the many dinner parties you’ll be invited to this winter. Looking forward to celebrating with you at our wedding!

For a kitchen gift you received before your wedding

How did you know we were dreaming of those crystal champagne flutes?! They’re by far the most beautiful glasses in our home and we’ve never felt fancier. You’ll have to come over soon so we can toast to you! So excited to see you in June.

For drinkware you received before your wedding

We had a blast dancing the night away with you at our wedding. We also can’t thank you enough for the espresso maker. Our mornings have never been brighter! We can’t wait to see you in Austin next month… all caffeinated up!

For a coffee gift you received after your wedding

Where have you been hiding those killer dance moves? Thank you so much for rocking out at our wedding. And we absolutely love our new cast iron skillet and cookbook! We’re already cooking up a storm. Hope to see you soon in New York!

For cookware you received after your wedding

Thank you so much for the beer-brewing kit! We hope to be sipping backyard IPAs with you in no time. We missed you at the wedding, but know you were there in spirit. Can’t wait to see you when we’re back from our honeymoon!

Emily & Mike

If you're a massive nerd like Emily and Mike, you'll appreciate the architecture tour for the mix of history and design.

Chicago Architecture Tours

Explore some pretty fantastic museums, including the Adler Planetarium, where Emily spent far too much time at Adler After Dark events. You can also get a fantastic picture of the skyline!

Museum Campus

If you enjoy copious amounts of food and some live music, the Taste can be a great place to wander around.

Taste of Chicago (September 6-8)

Emily lived in the Lakeview neighborhood for the better part of a decade. Check out some small shops like Unabridged Bookstore and grab breakfast from Ann Sather's.

Lakeview (aka, Emily's neighborhood)

Mike's old Chicago stomping grounds for the past decade; looking for some deep dish in Chicago? Try Nueva Italy Pizzeria with sausage, basil, and sliced tomatoes. Walk it off by the lake along Leone Beach and the bustling parallel shops along Sheridan Ave., like Third Coast Comics and Armadillo's Pillow (used books).
