Travel & Stay

01.
Getting There

For our out of town guests, we recommend flying into O'Hare International Airport (ORD) or Midway (MDW). From the airport, you can take a taxi straight to the Westin Hotel which is next to our venue and located in the heart of  downtown Chicago.

02.
The Westin Hotel

We have a hotel block at the Westin next to our venue. Book your room here or call the reservations department at (888) 627-8359 and reference the wedding block (Donnelly/Freaney). Check-in begins at 4pm the day of your reservation and the deadline to reserve a room at the reduced wedding block rate is July 11th. Rooms have been booked for both August 8th and August 9th and are first come, first serve (so get them while you can).

Room rates will be subject to a non-commissionable daily destination fee of $25, plus applicable taxes, per room per night. This fee will cover several amenities, which include:

  • Daily enhanced internet

  • Welcome gift of Garretts Popcorn (one bag per guest/room with max of 2 bags provided only upon arrival)

  • Daily 30-minute fitness class with Sam, our in-house certified Personal Trainer (M-F) or with RTSR, our external Professional Trainers (Sat/Sun)

  • Daily Food & Beverage Credit for use in all outlets ($25 credit allocated per day, must be used in full at one meal and cannot be accrued over course of stay)

The Venue

Our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception will all be held at RPM Events.  RPM Events is a beautiful venue located in downtown Chicago directly on the Chicago River with sweeping views of the river and city. The ceremony and reception will be indoors with the option to enjoy an outdoor patio during cocktail hour.
