What should I wear?
The dress code for our wedding is semi-formal/cocktail attire.
What is the weather like this time of year?
Chicago-land area weather is pretty crazy as is Northwest Indiana's. However, thankfully we are getting married at a great time of the year. You can expect higher 70s and a very slight chance of rain.
What is the best method for transportation?
All our wedding events take place in the Chicago south suburbs and Northwest Indiana suburbs. We suggest having a vehicle for mode of transportation.
What time should I arrive?
We suggest you arrive between 30 minutes to 20 minutes prior to the ceremony to allow you time to be seated. Ceremony will begin promptly at 2pm.
Will the ceremony and reception take place at the same place?
Our wedding will not take place at the same location. Our church ceremony will be held in Flossmoor, Illinois and our venue reception will be held in Schererville, Indiana (a 25 minute drive from each other).
Where should I park? Is parking free?
One of the great things of the suburbs is all the available parking. There is plenty of parking (all free) at the church and venue.
Will the ceremony be held indoors or outdoors?
The wedding will take place all indoors.
What happens after the church ceremony?
The wedding party will be taking pictures while our guests head to the reception for a cocktail hour.

Do you have a hotel block for guests? Where do you recommend I stay?
Yes! We have a hotel block set for our guests. It is a 5 minute drive from our venue. The Holiday Inn provides a discount for our guests staying 1 or 2 nights.

Am I allowed to take photos of your wedding?
To an extent. We approve of you taking photos, but we kindly request that you refrain from taking photos once the church ceremony begins. We ask all guests to shut down or silence their phones during our ceremony in respect to God and us as a couple. Thank you.
