While we love being auntie and uncle to many wonderful kids, we've opted to keep our wedding celebration adults-only. We thank you for understanding and appreciate you making arrangements ahead of time so you can celebrate with us!
Sorry, no - our celebration is strictly RSVP only. We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your wedding invitation.
We encourage our guests to aim somewhere between formal and semi-formal attire. This will be an evening of great food, live jazz, and even livelier conversation, so feel free to find that sweet spot between looking classy and feeling comfortable. For those who like choosing outfits according to a theme, the palette for our party will be centered on olive green, nutmeg, navy blue, gold, and black.
You do not need to choose a meal in advance; we have arranged a pre-selected menu from which you may choose. Food will also be served during the cocktail hour beforehand. The menu will be Traditional American with an array of options to choose from, ranging from meat and fish to vegetarian- and vegan-friendly snacks and dishes.
Absolutely. Each guest's meal will be prepared from scratch and made to order. While numerous options on our menu are already gluten-free, vegetarian, and/or vegan-friendly, everything on the menu can be tailored to accommodate any other preferences or restrictions (lactose, gluten, allergies, etc.) - just let your server know what you need.
Yes, there will be an open bar with an array of spirits and non-alcoholic beverages to choose from - but don't forget to bring a few bucks to tip the bartenders!
Please do not feel obligated - but if you'd like to honor us with a gift, you can have it delivered to our home at: 1301 W Eddy St #1 Chicago, IL 60657 A wedding card box will also be available at the reception.
