Miscellaneous

Are kids allowed at the wedding?

We love your kids but thought you might like a night off. ADULTS ONLY PLEASE! (You will see a couple of our nephews running around, but we are including immediate family only. Children not yet born are allowed😉; you know who you are.)

Is the ceremony indoors or outdoors?

Our ceremony is taking place outside within the patio and gazebo area of Two Brothers. There will not be overhead covering; if rain is forecast, we will provide umbrellas or ponchos and do our best to remain outside. We will be able to move inside if absolutely necessary due to thunder/lightning. That being said, mother nature in the Midwest is HIGHLY unpredictable, so the temperature could range anywhere from 30 degrees to 80 degrees in early October. Please remember to plan your dress accordingly.

Does the food accommodate dietary restrictions?

Our reception will include hors d'oeuvres followed by a late lunch. Lunch is buffet style, and there will be several gluten free and dairy free options available (will be labled). Two Brothers does not cook with any nuts. Please let us know if you are vegan or need food cooked separately; we will be able to provide other food options (vegan lasana) for anyone with these restrictions as long as we know ahead of time.

Is parking available at the venue?

The parking lot at Two Brothers is large, and there is a Holiday Inn Express right next store with additional free parking. Two Brothers additionally provides us with complimentary valet as part of our wedding package, so feel free to use this service as well!

What are other things to do in the area? After party?

1) Explore Chicago. 2) Two Brothers is a brewery. Feel free to enjoy the public side of the building if you want to continue the party. 3) Two Brothers is right across from the Fox River and Stolp Island Historic District, home to a number of great picture spots and many arts buildings and theatres. After taking some additional photos at the end of the reception, Slater and Ashley will be going to the Hollywood Casino Aurora to see if they can pay off their wedding! Come join us if you are feeling lucky.

Additional Tidbit

Please pardon the invitation perforation. We attempted to order them 4 times (following the sample being correctly cut), and slightly off angle was the best we could get😅.
