Church: the parking lot for the church is located at 363 W. Hill Street (different address than the church). When you exit the lot, you will see the church to the right across N. Orleans Street. Reception: We highly recommend using taxi and/or Uber for the reception. If you must drive please consider carpooling with family and friends staying at the same hotel or area, and park at the Grant Park North garage (which will be on the same block as the reception venue). Melse/Melsi: There will be a parking lot on site, and free street parking nearby.
