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!

We're so excited to share a few of our favorite restaurants and activities. We hope you enjoy your time in Chicago!

Things To Do

The best tourist activity that locals still love to do! See all of Chicago in a couple hours.

Chicago Architecture River Cruise

Take in a Cubs game (they're in town!) - the friendly confines are legendary!

Wrigley Field

Visit Sue and take a trip through human history. One of best views of the Chicago skyline and the lake!

Field Museum

One of the best art museums in the world with fantastic impressionist and modern wings.

The Art Institute of Chicago

Being held in September instead of 4th of July (for the first time ever) - lucky coincidence or expert planning? 

A: It was just coincidence...

Taste of Chicago

Our favorite pizza in one of the most iconic Chicago buildings; first floor of the Wrigley building!

Lou Malnati's Pizzeria

Jacob met Kristi for the first time here...memories. Casual spot with good sandwiches, fish and chips, and drinks. Also the location of our "welcome drinks" on Friday night. We try to be accommodating.

Kerryman Irish Bar & Restaurant

Hands down, the best martini in the city. Sit at a hightop in the bar and people watch in "The Triangle"...IYKYK.

Gibsons Bar & Steakhouse

Neighborhood Italian restaurant with great pasta and a cute garden for outdoor dining. On Wells St in Old Town.

Topo Gigio Ristorante

West Loop restaurant that's worth the traffic & travel time for the best burger in Chicago. Enjoy!

The Loyalist

Lincoln Park BYOB sushi spot that's small and casual but some of the best sushi in the city. If you're in the area, stop for a great bite!
