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 have you in the city with us! The West Loop is a thriving area with some of the best restaurants and bars that Chicago has to offer. We've included some of our favorites on this page.

Considered the best burger in Chicago, and one of the best in the country, Au Cheval is one of our favorites! They don't take reservations, so if you want to go, go early, and wait at Lone Wolf next door for your table to be ready.

Au Cheval

Great spot for breakfast, lunch, or dinner

Little Goat Diner

Upscale food hall with something for everybody, and right next to The Emily Hotel.

Time Out Market Chicago

Excellent speakeasy style cocktail bar with live music on Friday and Saturday nights. In the basement of The Hoxton Hotel.

Lazy Bird

Dark cocktail bar with excellent (and very loud) music.

Moneygun

Excellent Texas style BBQ, and a fun place to sit and have a few beers with lunch.

Green Street Smoked Meats

Arcade bar with extensive craft beer list

Emporium Fulton Market

Large bar with games, good for large groups.

Punch Bowl Social Chicago

If this is your first time in Chicago, we HIGHLY recommend doing the Chicago Architecture Center river boat tour. It's about ~2 hours long (and will be outside), but gives you an excellent view of the city along the beautiful Chicago River.
