While we are requesting formal attire, more than anything we want everyone to be comfortable and enjoy the evening. We'll be in long dresses and suits (not tuxes) but if you're more comfortable in a cocktail dress or a sport coat, feel free to wear that! If you have a sequin gown or gold suit you've never had an occasion to wear, we'd love that too! The weather in Chicago this time of year tends to be mild, mid-60s, but it could get chilly in the evening. The entire event will be indoors, however.
We ask that all of our guests who are able be fully vaccinated and boosted; if this is an issue please reach out to us. We are not requiring masks but if you would feel more comfortable wearing one, please feel free, we completely understand. If you are traveling from out of town, we would greatly appreciate it if you would wear a mask at the airport and on any public transportation - we will be doing the same during any local travel leading up to the wedding.
Unfortunately, as the cost to insure the entirety of downtown Chicago would exceed our budget, our pittie Claudia Jean will not be attending the wedding. We will be sure to pass along her enthusiastic greetings.
