We hope you'll understand our decision to keep the ceremony small and simple. We limited ceremony invitations to immediate family and out-of-town guests, but we're hoping that all of you can make it to our informal reception party at Brunswick Zone. It's going to be a blast!

We have the Brunswick Zone building rented out for three hours, starting at 3pm. For those who haven't been there, they have lots of fun games and attractions such as bowling, pool tables, laser tag, an arcade, bumper cars, and more. The plan is to let everyone enjoy the building until 5:30, when dinner (pizza buffet or lasagna/chicken parmesan buffet) will be served. If games aren't your thing, you are welcome to arrive at any time before dinner. Your kids are invited as well!
After dinner, we will be moving the party into their VIP room, where there are tables, a dance floor, and a bar. Or, if you prefer, you can stay in the banquet room, or continue to play games. The building will be open to the public at that point, and we'll be expected to pay for the games like everyone else.
Hotel Information
There is a Holiday Inn at the corner of Gary and North Ave. It is right next to Brunswick Zone. I've worked out a group discount rate of $74 a night starting from Thursday and going through Sunday. When you call them, let them know you're there for our wedding. Our discount is under the name Michelson. Follow this link for their information. The hotel is about a 7 minute drive to the train station (for visiting the city), a 5 minute drive from the ceremony, and right next door to the reception. We'll figure out a way to transport people to the ceremony and back for those without transportation.
There is also an inexpensive motel close by:
Du Wayne Motel, 27 W. 641 North Ave., West Chicago, IL 60185, (630) 231-1040
