Can I bring a plus one?
No, our wedding is strictly by invitation only and all attendees have been explicitly invited by the couple. Unfortunately, due to capacity of the venue, we are not able to accommodate extra guests outside of those explicitly invited. Thank you for understanding!
Can we bring our kids?
Although we love your children we are not including children in the invitations, we want this day to be stress free for everyone and a fun weekend away!
What is the dress code?
The theme of the weekend is dress to impress! Friday will be the traditional Nigerian ceremony, wear your best traditional garments or any semi/formal attire. Saturday's dress code will be black tie, please wear your sharpest tux/suit or classy evening gown. No color restrictions aside from no white of course.
What hotel should I stay at?
We have reserved rooms at 3 different hotels. The rates to book at these hotels have been discounted for our wedding guests. To receive the discounted rate, you must book directly through the links in our website under the "Travel" tab. The deadline to book to recieve this discount is 2/28!
How will I get to each event during the wedding weekend?
On Friday, there will be a bus shuttle to transport guests from each of the 3 hotels to the traditional Nigerian wedding venue and back to the hotel afterward. On Saturday, each of the 3 hotels are within walking distance or a short uber to the ceremony/reception venue.
When is the deadline to RSVP?
January 17th, 2025 is the deadline to RSVP. However, if know that you can/cannot attend, please feel free to RSVP ASAP. You will be asked about your ability to attend both Friday and Saturday.
What will the weather be like?
April in Chicago is the time of year when things finally start to warm up but they don't call it the Windy City for nothing so be prepared! However, all wedding events will be indoors!
Where are you registered?
Seen as we recently moved in together, we have already purchased all of the common items that couples usually put on their registry. Therefore, if you would like to give us a gift, monetary form would be most appreciated to help support our future together! You can find the deposit links in our "Registry" tab, thank you all!
Where should I park my car?
If staying at a hotel, you can use the app "SpotHero" for more affordable overnight parking.
For those driving straight to Chicago Cultural Center, valet services are available for $20 on E Washington St.
