Is there a dress code?

Our wedding will be a formal affair. Gentlemen are encouraged to wear a suit and tie, while ladies can opt for a floor-length gown or formal cocktail dress. We can’t wait to celebrate with you in style!

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Help us get the party started as scheduled! We recommend that you arrive at the venue 30 minutes before the start of the ceremony to make sure everyone is seated on time. If you are running early, we recommend Midwest Coast Brewing located directly next door to Walden.

Can I bring a date?

Our celebration is strictly RSVP only. We will only be able to accommodate those listed on your invitation.

Are kids welcome?

No, this is an adult-only celebration, with the exception of close family children and those specifically in our wedding party who will be at the ceremony.

Will there be meal options for guests with dietary restrictions?

Yes. We want everyone to enjoy the evening, and that includes dinner. If you have a dietary restriction or allergy, please make a note when RSVPing and our venue's culinary team will make sure to accommodate you.

Is there transportation to the venue?

Yes! A shuttle will be available for guests at The Kimpton Gray both before and after the wedding. Please keep an eye on the Transportation page for more details.

Is there parking for the ceremony or reception?

Yes. Our venue has a small, private 26-car parking lot for guests to use. All cars must leave at the end of the night, they are not allowed to be left overnight. Walden is also located on a quiet street with a ton of free parking.

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Yes. We have a couple of hotel recommendations listed in the Travel section of our website for you to consider. We'll be staying at The Kimpton Gray.

Is there an after party?

Yes! We’re excited to keep the celebration going at Ranalli’s West Loop after the reception. Transportation will be available from Walden to Ranalli’s for all guests.

Will Moose Be At The Wedding?
