Please plan to arrive 15 - 30 minutes before the ceremony (1:30 - 1:45). The church doors will close a little bit before the ceremony, which begins promptly at 2 PM.
There will be about a 2 and a half hour break in between the ceremony & reception while the bridal party & family take photos. This is a great time to check into your hotel. Additionally, there are many restaurant options in Uptown Park Ridge (5 minute drive from the reception) to grab a snack or drink. Some recommended restaurants include: Holt's, Pennyville, Beer on the Wall or Harp & Fiddle.
Please visit the travel & accommodations tab of the website. We have a room block at the Hampton Inn Suites - Rosemont - Chicago O'Hare which is recommended for lodging as it is centrally located to both the ceremony & reception.
Our wedding is formal attire. For women knee or floor length dresses are recommended. For men a suit with a tie or bow tie is recommended. Please no casual attire or jeans.
Due to limited capacity we will not be able to accommodate anyone not listed on your invitation. If you have a plus one, when it is time to RSVP for our wedding a second name will appear. Our wedding reception is an adults only event. We appreciate you arranging child care prior to our wedding.
A private shuttle service will be provided from the hotel block to both the ceremony & reception. For those driving, St Peter's has a large parking lot located behind the church & complimentary valet parking will be provided at the reception. For those not taking the hotel shuttle or driving, Ubers & Lyfts are readily available in Park Ridge. For those flying in, the hotel will provide a shuttle to & from O'hare airport. Please coordinate with the hotel based on your flight time.
