Downtown is so fun but please keep in mind it's a 40 minute drive from the hotel and venue. A few of our favorite things include the Art Institute, an architecture boat tour on the Chicago River, the Field Museum, the Bean at Millennium Park, and of course the food. We recommend any of the deep dish pizza spots like Pizzeria Uno, Lou Malnatis or Giordanos or check out Harry Carrys for a burger/steak. We also love Frontera Grill for delicious Mexican and if you're near the Bean check out The Gage which is a super delicious spot.
Yes, we'll have a bus transport to and from the Marriott Resort to the venue. This will need to leave at 4pm on Saturday so please plan to arrive by 3:50pm outside the lobby.
Yes, the Marriott has a full service restaurant, bar and buffet breakfast. There is also a Starbucks on-site.
Our ceremony and cocktail hour will be outdoors. Attire is garden party/dressy & smart casual. Comfortable shoes encouraged. The most important part of our day is to have fun and spend time with our loved ones.
