The Cuba Marsh is a cool mix between marsh, woodland, and prairie. There’s 3 miles of trails for hiking plus a 50-foot-long timber bridge. Also fun fact, this is where Luke and Brianna took their engagement photos!

Morretti’s menu is huge! Great place to get pizza, beer, and catch a game. Most weekends they have live music.

Very cool atmosphere with great food! You will usually catch Luke, Brianna, and the rest of the Stryczek family here celebrating big events and birthdays.

Looking for a way to spend your time outdoors to enjoy gorgeous flowers and walk through enchanting gardens? Then the Chicago botanic gardens is a great place to spend your time. Only a 23 min drive from the double tree hotel!

This seemingly hole-in-the-wall restaurant is a must have when in the area! Arguably the best Mexican food in town! You can catch the Stryczek family and Luke here nearly every Friday night for awesome eats and kick butt margaritas!

Long Grove is a fun little historic village with lots to explore for the whole family! From the historic covered bridge and mill pond to gift shops and restaurants this place has it all! Some of Luke and Brianna’s favorite places to visit here are Broken earth Winery and Buffalo Creek Brewing.

Best breakfast and pancakes in town! You can catch the Stryczek family and Luke here religiously every Sunday morning after church. This breakfast location never disappoints and the staff is wonderful! Only a 4 min drive from Immanuel Lutheran where Luke and Brianna will become Mr. & Mrs. and a 20 min drive from the Double Tree hotel.
