Q & A

Who can I bring to the wedding?

We are hosting an intimate event with limited space on the guest list, so we can only allot for the guests directly addressed on the invitations (plus ones are signified by "& Guest" following your name). Please note that this is an adults-only affair. Thank you for understanding!

What is the dresscode?

We ask that all guests dress in formal attire. For men, tuxedos are not required, but are more than welcomed. Wearing a formal suit is encouraged. For women, it is recommended to wear a floor-length or tea-length gown, or a dressy suit or pantsuit. While there is no required color scheme, we suggest fall colors, earth tones, or jewel tones, such as brown, emerald, navy, burgundy, black, or aubergine.

What will the weather be like?

Average historic temperatures are 62°, with highs around 71° and lows around 51°. A heavy coat is likely not needed and rain is unlikely. Please note that the event will be fully indoors.

How can I get to the venue and around the city?

Use of CTA trains is highly encouraged for transit into and around the city. If arriving at O'Hare, you can easily take the Blue line into the city. If arriving at Midway, you can board the Orange line to head downtown. Uber and Lyft rides are also readily available. Note that Chicago is also very walkable and the weather should be suitable to take a nice stroll!

When and how can I RSVP?

Please refer to the RSVP tab for more information and to submit your response(s).

Where are the wedding ceremony and reception taking place?

All events will be taking place on the 3rd floor of the Intercontinental Hotel. There are wheelchair accessible routes to all areas. Please see the homepage for a detailed event timeline.

What type of food and drink will be served?

Appetizers will be passed during cocktail hour, a 3-course dinner and dessert will be served at the reception, and a fun late-night snack will be available while dancing! There will be a full-service open bar all evening, which will pause during dinner, where wine will be served. Vegetarian options will be included. Pre-selection of your entree will be requested upon submission of your RSVP.

What is the phone and photo policy?

We ask that all guests refrain from any use of phones or cameras during the ceremony. Taking photos throughout the night is otherwise encouraged!
