Hello lovelies!

I'd like to introduce you to Volo Restaurant & Wine Bar! Not only is this a great neighborhood spot with delicious food and inspiring wine, but it also just happens to be the location of our wedding! Hip! Hip! Hooray!

This has been in the works for some time now and we finally made it official last Friday. Yes! We are for real getting married!

We chose Volo because . . .
+outdoor and indoor space
+vintage and rustic influences
+yummy food & drink
+intimate setting
+located right in Roscoe Village
+reasonable price

All in all, everything just clicked! I'm so excited to share this with you and even more excited for next year!

EEEEEEEEE

I'm so excited! I think Neill and I found the place for our wedding. we both just sort of knew that it was right for us! it is nontraditional and very flexible in terms of working with us and our ideas. i don't want to jinx it so it shall remain nameless for now...but keep your fingers crossed for us!

Quickie

So . . .Neill and I took advantage of the beautiful 70 degree weather and took an impromptu trip to check out some possible wedding venues.

Our first stop was Promontory Point. swoon! Beautiful? check. In the city? check. outdoor and indoor spaces? check. nonstuffy? check. I loved it!

Since we were on the south side we also went by the South Shore Cultural Center. Neill had a really adverse reaction to the building and kept saying that it looked like a prison. So while it is already off the list, I will say that in my opinion they have a beautiful salarium with a great view of the lake and would be perfect for people who wanted a unique venue that still felt a bit hotely.

Anyhoo, I'll definitely dish more but Ive got to get ready now...time for Sultan's Market and then show billing for RTD's Double Door show!
