Frequently Asked Questions


Will there be a wedding ceremony?

We are opting to forego a traditional wedding ceremony in favor of a small courthouse wedding, but would love to celebrate the start of our new life together with our family and closest friends.

What should I wear?

Both Friday and Saturday nights will be dressy casual.

Is there a gifts registry?

Your love and support mean the world to us; no other gifts are necessary.

Can I bring my kids?

We love your little ones, but have decided to keep this weekend an adults-only event except for immediate family. We encourage you to use this time for some date nights!

Do you have a hotel block for guests? Where should I stay?

We do not have any hotel blocks, but a list of several hotel recommendations can be found on the Travel page. We generally recommend staying in Chicago’s Gold Coast or River North neighborhoods, from which both the Friday and Saturday evening events will be walkable.

We'll also be adding more FAQs after the invites go out, so check back soon!
