Reception

Our Wedding

It isn't every day that you meet that person who complements you unlike anyone else. From the first day we met...where Mike applied sunscreen on Kiersten's burnt back...we knew it was something special. Over the years, as our love grew, so did our friendship. Whether it's playing volleyball on North Avenue Beach, drinking beers in Prague, or cooking together (with Ernie begging for handouts the whole time), we realized that life was better when we were together.We're so excited for you to celebrate with us on our wedding day!

Q + A

Unfortunately, there is a large conference in Chicago the same weekend as our wedding (who knew?), and we will be unable to secure a hotel room block. Because of this conference, many hotels in Chicago currently appear to have no availability, but rooms should open up in April and May. We'd recommend waiting until it gets closer to book a hotel as rooms should be available and prices should go down.Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions! We want your stay to be as comfortable as possible.

Hotels

Uber/Cab: We recommend this method. We can provide Uber credits for your convenience.Public Transportation: The Chicago History Museum is easily accessible by public transportation. The Sedgwick brown line stop is 0.4 miles west, the Clark/Division red line stop is 0.6 miles south, and the 22 and 36 buses drop off directly in front of the museum. Driving: There is a small parking lot on site should you wish to drive.Please feel free to contact us with any questions!

Getting to the Chicago History Museum

An airbnb is a great alternative to hotels! We'd recommend staying in Old Town, River North, or Lincoln Park, but any surrounding neighborhoods would work as well.
