The ceremony will begin at 4:30. We ask that you plan to arrive thirty minutes before the ceremony begins.
Please RSVP through our website no later than August 12, 2024. Earlier is always appreciated! You can RSVP online by clicking the ‘RSVP’ tab in the menu above. If you do not RSVP by August 12, you may be marked as “Not Attending.” We have to provide an exact guest count to our vendors by that date. Thank you!
We would like to see our family and friends dress up with us! A shirt and tie is recommended for the men. Ladies, we kindly ask that you avoid colors traditionally reserved for the bride: whites, creams, and ivories.
All the beautiful bridesmaids will be wearing floor-length black dresses. Our colors are black and gold.
For Illinois, September can still be hot. The average temperature is around 73 degrees; however, it can be as warm as 90 degrees in early September during the day.
