The Livengood Barn in Chadwick is where both ceremony and reception will be held. The address is 21647 Thomson Rd, Chadwick, IL 61014. If the ceremony is indoors, there is an elevator lift to access if needed.

If you copy the address into any maps application, it will be very easy to find. Signs will be posted along the road to assist, as there is an oddly curved intersection leading up to the venue depending on which direction you are coming from. If you are utilizing the hotel that we have blocked rooms off at, there will be a shuttle bus that will transport you from the hotel to the venue. You will arrive approximately 30 minutes before the ceremony begins. There will be two trips back to the hotel, one at 9:00 and the other 11:00, which is when the reception ends.

If the ceremony is held inside, there is an elevator lift. Otherwise, the reception is held in a wheelchair-accessible space.

There is a large parking lot on the property, so parking should be no issue. You may leave your car overnight if needed. We please ask that you are better safe than sorry.

We will be looking closely at the weather the week of the wedding date and will make a judgment call based on temperature or foreseen inclement weather.
