The bride's parents invite guests to an after-party at Chicago Gaelic Park. Entertainment and drinks will be provided free to wedding guests from 6 to 10 p.m., with dinner served at 8 p.m. in the Tara South Room. Guests are encouraged to arrive earlier in the afternoon to watch the Irish Hurling and Gaelic Football sports matches for the full Gaelic Park experience. Game tickets at Chicago Gaelic Park are usually $10 to $20 (cash preferred). Stay tuned for more details. This is completely optional, so if you already have plans (or still need time to recover from the wedding day!), feel free to decline.
