FAQs

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony begins promptly at 5:00 PM, so please arrive around 4:45 PM.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We would love to see our family and friends get dressed up with us! We are requesting semi-formal attire for our wedding.

Question

How much is parking if we are not staying at a hotel?

Answer

Event valet parking at the Chicago Athletic Association is available. It is $35 for 8 hours. For those staying overnight, we suggest parking across the street in the Millenium Park or Grant Park North garage for lower prices. Payment is available in person or via the SpotHero app.

Question

Will there be an open bar?

Answer

Yes! The drinks are on us and the hangover is on you. We have waited a long time for this so party accordingly!

Question

Can I bring a guest that is not noted on the invitation?

Answer

If you received a plus one, this will appear under your name when you RSVP. Please ensure that you are RSVPing for both yourself and your guest. Due to limited capacity, we can only accommodate those listed on your invitation.

Question

Are children invited?

Answer

We love your little ones, but for the night we would appreciate if you put a babysitter on the schedule. We have decided to keep our wedding and reception “adults only.” We hope you understand and can enjoy the night off! We can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Question

Are there any attire colors that should be avoided?

Answer

Please avoid wearing white or off-white colors, as well as light blues.

Question

I noticed there was no place to request a meal on the RSVP. How will dinner be served?

Answer

While we are having plated dinner service, the entrée orders will be taken “restaurant style” at the beginning of the reception. You can choose your entrée at this time and will be able to indicate any dietary restrictions to your server then as well.

Question

I have a food allergy, can I make a special request?

Answer

Absolutely! As two individuals with food allergies, we understand how hard events like this can be. Should you or your guest have any known dietary restrictions, please be sure to notate them on the space provided in the RSVP so we can inform the catering staff in advance.

Question

Do you need to stay in the designated room block?

Answer

Definitely not! While it is recommended you stay at the room block at the Chicago Athletic Association (the venue) due to proximity to wedding events, Chicago is a large city with many hotels at different price points! Feel free to stay wherever works best for you! Please note, transportation to and from the venue will not be provided.
