Fun fact : Gordon Ramsey is opening a new restaurant for restaurant week our wedding weekend so a lot of hotels downtown are pricey or full. Some hotels may show as sold out, but if you call they have rooms available.

We recommend staying downtown if you plan to sight see while here, i.e. go visit the bean, the art institute, the lake etc. You can uber or lyft to the venue , it’ll likely be a $30ish ride.

Air bnbs seem more reasonably priced and you can stay near the venue in Irving Park, or Logan Square is a short uber ride and has lots of shopping and restaurants.
