Please RSVP by August 7th so we can finalize our guest count with the venue. This can be done by mailing us your physical RSVP cards. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out!

If you have any questions leading up to the wedding, feel free to reach out to either of us—we're happy to help!

We've reserved room blocks at nearby hotels. Visit the Hotels page for booking information and reservation deadlines.

You can RSVP for our welcome party through the Welcome Party booking page on our website. This is separate from RSVPing to the actual wedding. Please do so by August 7th so we can get a headcount for food!

Your presence is the greatest gift of all! If you'd like to honor us with a gift, we'd be grateful for a contribution to our house fund. If you prefer to give a traditional gift, we've also registered at Amazon, Target, and Crate & Barrel. More info can be found here!

Our ceremony and cocktail hour will take place outdoors in the private courtyard at The Ivy Room. The reception will be indoors. We recommend bringing a light jacket if the evening weather is cool.

Be sure to check out our Things to Do in Chicago page for some of our family's favorite restaurants, attractions, and local spots!

Yes! If you're staying at one of our recommended hotels, many of Chicago's best restaurants, attractions, and our wedding venue are within walking distance.

Chicago weather can be unpredictable in early October! Average temperatures range from the mid-50s to the upper-60s, so layers are always a good idea.

Please let us know when you send in your RSVP, and we'll do our best to accommodate your dietary needs.

Our wedding attire is black tie optional. More information on this can be found under the Dress Code tab on our website. We can't wait to celebrate with everyone looking their best!

Doors open at 5:00 PM, and the ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30 PM. We recommend getting there when the doors open.

Please keep phones and cameras tucked away during the ceremony. Once cocktail hour begins, we'd love for you to snap away and share your favorite moments!
