FAQs

Question

What's the dress code?

Answer

We’d love for our family and friends to dress up with us! Formal attire is requested (i.e. suits with jackets & ties, mid-calf to full-length dresses). All of the day’s events will be held indoors, so you can plan accordingly.

Question

When should I arrive?

Answer

Ceremony: Please arrive at Grace Lutheran Church between 2:00 - 2:15 PM to allow time to park, enter, and be seated. At 2:25 PM, the doors will be close, and the wedding service will begin. Reception: Arrive to the Harold Washington Library via the main doors on State St. at 6:00 PM to get the party started!

Question

Where can I park?

Answer

Ceremony: Guests may park in the Concordia University garage, accessible via Bonnie Brae Place. The garage is free of charge and adjacent to the church. If garage space is unavailable upon your arrival, street parking on the surrounding blocks is free.

Question

Is there a suggested hotel?

Answer

Thank you so much for traveling to celebrate with us! Details can be found on the “Hotels” page of this site. Wherever you choose to stay, we recommend booking soon, as May is a busy month for Chicago hotels.

Question

What should I do between the ceremony & reception?

Answer

Whatever you please! We’ve scheduled plenty of time to allow for stress-free travel between the church and reception. If you're visiting Chicago and are interested in suggestions, please don't hesitate to reach out to Charlie, Anna, or our families!

Question

I have more questions - who should I ask?

Answer

Feel free to reach out to Charlie or Anna in the lead-up to the wedding. For any day-of questions, we ask that you contact a member of the wedding party.
