Let's kick off the wedding celebrations with some of our favorite foods from our favorite dive bar. We know most of you have traveled all day to be here, therefore this will be a casual event with heavy appetizers and cocktails of your choice. Fun Fact: During Prohibition, this bar was a popular place to get illicit libations. Because the front door is green, this color became a symbol for a speakeasy. Thank you so much for coming, we can't wait to start celebrating with you all!

Just steps away from the hotel, (4 min easy sidewalk stroll) we will be saying our I Do's under the Gazebo on the corner of Michigan Ave & Lake Shore Drive. Here are the walking directions to the Gazebo: https://maps.app.goo.gl/UbcLG64SU1dm3mu99 If you are not staying at the Westin, we recommend parking at the Drake Hotel's parking garage.
