FAQs

Question

1. What is the time of the wedding?

Answer

Our wedding ceremony will begin promptly at 6:00pm CT (local time), when doors to the venue will be closed. Cocktail hour will follow the ceremony with the reception beginning at approximately 7:30pm. The reception will end at 1:00am. Given that traffic in Chicago on a Saturday evening is typically quite heavy, we recommend planning to arrive by 5:30pm CT to ensure you have plenty of time to park if needed, find your seat, and settle in before the ceremony begins.

Question

2. Is there parking near the venue?

Answer

Yes! We will have plenty of free parking available. We will include the address for the parking lot in the formal wedding invitation.

Question
