Check out the Chicago Riverwalk. It's a beautiful way to spend your afternoon or evening. You can walk by the river and even head to a restaurant right on the walk. The Chicago Riverwalk is full of restaurants, which will not disappoint you.

If you love your coffee or just your Starbucks, then head to the Starbucks Reserve Roastery. This reserve is the world's largest Starbucks and has plenty for you to try.

Head to the world's largest rooftop located in Chicago's Navy Pier. This rooftop has an amazing view of Chicago's skyline and Lake Michigan. Reservations are recommended.

Don't forget to check out Navy Pier. Navy Pier offers many activities for everyone in the family. From boat tours, shops, games, and plenty of restaurants, you'll enjoy your time at Navy Pier.

Cindy's Rooftop is another great bar to check out in the city. It offers beautiful views of Millennium Park and amazing food and drinks.

Lou Malnati's or Giordano's will not disappoint. Both are known for their famous Chicago pizza. These both have quite a reputation for their pizzas, and it's hard to decide which to visit. Thus, we leave it at your hands to decide.

Head to Italy through Eataly. Eataly is an Italian market filled with Italian goodies. You can find neapolitan pizza, pasta, fresh meats, dessert, gelato, and much more. They also offer special cooking classes during the summer to improve your Italian cooking skills.

The Chicago Museum Campus is only a 43 minute drive from our venue. At the Museum Campus, you can find the Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum of Natural History, and the Alder Planetarium.

There are a ton of great restaurants to visit throughout Chicago. However, you can find many of them in one particular spot. Chicago's River North area is full of wonderful restaurants. These are a few recommendations that have been either visited by the bride, groom, or both. Most are located in Chicago's River North area, but please double check the location prior to heading there.
