If necessary, street parking will also be available. Our reception is located at The BRIX on the Fox (260 Washington Street, Carpentersville, Illinois). It is about a 20 minute drive from the ceremony to the reception venue. There is a large parking lot directly behind the venue which we have full access to. When facing the building from the back, our reception will take place in the door on the left side. There will be signage that reads "The 260."

We will be providing shuttle service between the hotel and the venue. Specific shuttle times with be provided at a later time. There is ample parking, so driving is an option as well.

Both the ceremony and reception will take place indoors.

Our dress code is formal. A suit or sport coat for men. An evening gown, midi-length dress, or nice cocktail length dress for ladies.

Kindly choose wedding attire in neutral tones, pastels, and muted colors, as this will best fit the character we have curated for our wedding day.

Anyone that knows Sophia knows she absolutely loves children, but due to the venue size and nature of the event, we cannot accommodate children under age 18 who are not listed on the invitation.

We'll be serving hors d'oeuvres at cocktail hour followed by a sit-down dinner with a choice of entree. There will be a beef, chicken, and vegetarian option available. Other dietary restrictions can be made upon request.

There will be an open bar for guests to enjoy throughout cocktail hour and the reception.

The doors to the venue will open one hour ahead of our ceremony time at 3:00pm. We recommend arriving at the ceremony venue about 30 minutes ahead of the ceremony start time to ensure you have enough time to park and find a seat prior to the start.

Our reception will end at 12:00, when lights will turn on and last song will play. Transportation via shuttle will be provided back to the hotel at this time.

There will be a brief gap between the ceremony and the reception while the bride and groom are taking pictures with their families. A local tap house will be open to guests as a cash bar between the ceremony and the reception, located about 2 minutes walking distance from the venue.
