The Weekend
A Mass in Lincoln Park, a night at the winery, and a day of games for anyone with legs left on Saturday.
Travel & Stay
Both venues are in the city. St. Clement sits on a quiet residential block in Lincoln Park; Chicago Winery is about three miles south in River North, roughly fifteen minutes by car.
Flying In
O’Hare (ORD) has the most flights and connects to downtown via the Blue Line L train. Midway (MDW) connects to downtown via the Orange Line. Both airports are walkable to the hotel after exiting the L train.
Getting Around
In general, you won’t need a car for the weekend. Most locations are within two to three miles of each other, and the hotel and reception venue are about a seven-minute walk apart. Many of downtown Chicago’s major attractions are also within walking distance of the hotel.
The church and welcome dinner are two to three miles north, in Lincoln Park, the neighborhood where we live. You can get there on foot, by public transit, or with Uber or Lyft.
From the ceremony to the reception, you can take the Clark Street bus, or walk: it’s about 2.5 miles straight down Clark, an enjoyable walk, or a little longer if you cut through the park past Lincoln Park Zoo. Uber, Lyft, or driving work too.
For Saturday’s game day, we recommend a rideshare or the Purple Line L north.
On Sunday, the marathon course runs less than a block from the hotel and passes by several times in the early miles. The energy will be incredible.
See the map below for every location.

The dashed orange line follows Clark Street, the walking and bus route from the church to the reception. The wine-colored line traces the marathon course’s first half based on recent years; the 2027 route may shift slightly.
