You'll probably get a different dress code description depending on what site you visit. We want you to feel comfortable, look good, and most importantly, enjoy the night! For women, think cocktail-style dresses, jumpsuits, or even separates are appropriate. Prints and brighter colors are welcome, this is still a summer celebration! We request that you please do not wear white. For men, a suit or button-down with slacks is perfect, throw in a tie, bowtie, or suspenders if you please.  The groomsmen's color is green and the bridal party's is pink should you choose to avoid these colors, but it is not required.

​

We want everyone to be happy with their dinner! If you have any restrictions, please let us know along with your RSVP so we can inform our caterer.

We HIGHLY encourage everyone to take the scheduled shuttles we will have from the hotel to the venue! They will also being doing return trips to the hotel when the reception is over so everyone can have a fun, stress-free night.

The short answer to this is yes, as long as you take basic safety measures you may take in any city. Chicago may be portrayed in a less-than-stellar light, but the city's crime is largely dependent on location. Most of the violent crime seen on the news takes place in the south side of the city. One should always be careful when out and about in a big city. To put it into perspective though, cities like Milwaukee and Alberquerque have a higher crime rate than Chicago, which is usually pretty close to Cleveland if you're looking at a ranked crime rate list by city.
