No, there is no parking or ride share allowed at Elawa. There will be a shuttle service running to and from the reception, from 3:30pm to 11:00pm for all guests. If you would like to drive, you can park your car at St James Lutheran Church (1380 N Waukegan Rd, Lake Forest), and the shuttle will pick you up to bring you to Elawa. The shuttle will be making stops at St James Lutheran Church, The Forester, the Deer Path Inn, and the after party.
Your invitation will inform whether or not you can bring a plus one! If you’re not sure who is invited, please visit the RSVP section on our site and type in your name. Invited, associated parties will show up when you search your name.
For breakfast, we love Hometown Coffee, Egg Harbor, and Hansa all in the Lake Forest / Lake Bluff area. For lunch, Hometown is a great option, but we also frequent Foodstuffs, Bluffingtons, LF Food & Wine, and Left Bank if you're feeling a pre-wedding chili cheese dog. For dinner, our favorites are the Deer Path Inn Pub, Francesca's, Authentico, Sophia Steak, and Le Colonial!
