Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

The dress code is black-tie formal, think stylish and classy. The colors for our wedding are lilac and sage. If you are unsure of what this means here are some guidelines: No jeans or khakis, full suit or tuxedo required. Dresses should fall below the knee and should avoid overly busy prints. In addition, we ask that everyone bring a pair of black sunglasses for a group photo op.

Question

Are there any special requests from the bride and groom?

Answer

Please DO NOT take any photos during the ceremony at the church, we understand that this is a special moment which is why we have hired a professional photographer to capture it, we will be sharing all the photos later. We want you to be fully present for this experience. Please do not leave after the ceremony as we would like to take a whole group photo on the steps of the church (your black sunglasses will be needed for this photo). Please download this app ahead of time as it will allow us to collect as many photos as possible: https://dotstheapp.com/us/

Are plus ones and children allowed?

Question

Is it okay to post wedding photos on social media?

Answer

You are free to post pictures of the bride and groom but please DO NOT post any pictures of our children on social media.

Question

What is the best way to get to and from each location?

Answer

If you are not driving your own car it is highly recommended that you take an Uber/Lyft/Taxi between both locations, as they are both conveniently located off of 90/94. Alternatively you can take the train to each location. The church is walking distance from the Sedgwick Brown Line stop, and the banquet hall is a little over a mile away from the Rosemont Blue Line stop.
