Please Log inTaking a Boat Tour along the river is one of the best ways to view and appreciate Chicago's unique beauty - it is our top recommendation for any visitors to Chicago.
If you're in the area on Friday afternoon, feel free to join us on the 1:45pm Chicago River Architecture Boat Tour.
Departing from their Michigan Avenue Dock, Shoreline Sightseeing offers a 75 minute tour through the Chicago River offering views of dozens of architecturally significant buildings in downtown Chicago.
Tickets are ~$40 per person ($20 for ages 12 and under). Purchase tickets online for the 1:45pm Tour departing the Michigan Avenue Dock at Shoreline Sightseeing Tickets. Keep in mind that the weather may be chilly in March and the boat tour is mostly open-air, so be sure to dress warmly!
We plan to grab a few drinks at Boleo on Friday evening, the night before the Wedding. Boleo is conveniently located at The Kimpton Gray Hotel on the top floor. This bar offers some fantastic Peruvian-inspired food and drinks in a very nice environment with a unique glass roof.
If you're staying nearby, feel free to stop by to grab a drink with us! We anticipate being there at ~9PM to 10PM.
We recommend making a reservation for your group, since this establishment predominantly offers table-service with limited seats at the bar. Walk-ins may have to wait to be seated.
For the health and safety of our family and friends and to comply with the City of Chicago Public Health regulations, all guests must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Please be prepared to show proof of vaccination upon arrival.
The Chicago St. Patrick's Day Parade will be hosted on Saturday, March 12th; the parade runs through Grant Park starting at 12:15pm. Additionally, the Chicago River will be dyed green in the morning - a famous local tradition.
Please plan for longer travel times due to additional crowds.
After the Wedding Reception winds down at The Rookery Building, we plan to migrate over to Elephant & Castle for some continued revelry!
This will be an unofficial after-party, feel free to join us if you want to keep the party going :)
Elephant and Castle is located just down the block from The Rookery Building along Adams Street. It is open until 1AM on Saturdays.
On Sunday, we plan to take in the sky-high views from the 103rd floor at the Sears Tower (now Willis Tower) Skydeck!
If you're interested in joining us, we have bought tickets for the 3pm entry on Sunday, March 13th.
Pre-purchasing tickets is recommended (since they may sell out). Tickets are $35, with discounts available for children 11 and younger.
