Sweet Home 

Chicago

ACCOMODATIONS

With Chicago hotels aplenty, you really can't go wrong.

 

Many of the wedding guests are staying at one of the 3 hotels below.

 

Air bnb is another great option. If you choose to go this route, we recommend staying in River North, Old Town, West Loop, or Lincoln Park so you can still be part of the action.

(We will have transportation from the venue back to these hotels on Saturday night.  If you choose to stay elsewhere, you're still welcome to hitch a ride with us back to downtown and then uber from there!
