Hotel
The Drake will host our ceremony and reception; we highly encourage our guests to take advantage of our block room rate, by reserving their rooms at https://book.passkey.com/go/SAHAANDSHAHWEDDING or by calling 1-800-55-DRAKE and providing the group code, SRP –SHW. The Drake Hotel was built in 1920 as the nation's first-ever "urban resort," and was known for decades for the lavish parties and galas it hosted for Chicago's high-society and industrialists. Its history is intimately tied with that of Chicago's Prohibition Era speakeasies and bootlegging businesses. In this century, the hotel is known for hosting prominent individuals such as Princess Diana of Wales and President Barack Obama. Today, The Drake is an opulent relic of one of Chicago's most exciting and historic decades, as well as an iconic part of the city's character and charm. We hope you enjoy your stay at one of our favorite Chicago landmarks!
