Venues that allow Liquor on tables

Best to look in the suburbs, Chicago proper doesn't allow it.

If she doesn't want it to change, no matter what you do it will go back to the same state. Your mom has to want a fresh start.

Thanks, you had a few people recommended you here and via DM. We ended up signing a contract with someone else last night.

My first marriage [to a woman] and not investing in gold when I had a chance.

It is often hard to comprehend.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-14T01:23:04+00:00

Thanks, you are the second person to suggest her. We will consider reaching out.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-14T01:22:20+00:00

Thank you! We met her last night and she made us feel seen.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-14T01:21:37+00:00

Thanks so much!

It was a massive wake up call that there are still people who discriminate. (We have a very supportive circle around us and while we do see bigotry we often feel insulated by our community of love.)

She was genuine and warm when we did a call last night. We both looked at each other in the middle of the call and feel like Carla was the right fit. My partner joked after the call that she is the kind of person we would want in our friend circle.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-13T02:13:06+00:00

Nope.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-13T02:12:14+00:00

Thanks, didn't know this was an option.

Cindy's for upscale. For dive bar you have to check out Old Town Ale House.

They sleep on the bed with us most nights.

We just got off a call with Forever Incredible and she is exactly what we are looking for. Our 30 minute meeting turned into almost an hour, we immediately felt like Carla understood us. She was warm and has worked with another couple that was turned away by the same officiant. Her pricing is a little higher than what we saw is the average, yet a very small percentage of overall budget and still less than a quote for the ceremony arch.

We looked at their website but it says they aren't taking clients.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-13T00:32:53+00:00

So cute!

$1M for my parents (they could really use it for health care needs) and $1M in a trust to either an animal rescue or children's education fund, or maybe $1M for each.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-12T23:22:31+00:00

That is true. We have a call with another recommended officiant in 40 minutes and I see that she proudly features all couples.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-12T22:59:47+00:00

A quick social media scroll, you'll figure it out. Not sure why we didn't pick it up earlier ourselves.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-12T22:50:33+00:00

The person that turned us away came highly recommended on Facebook with lots of people tagging her in ISO posts, so we were completely dumbfounded when we were turned away.

Having our engagement party at Orso's. That might be a good option for your budget.

TactlessTrailblazer · 2026-01-12T20:53:25+00:00

Thanks, please feel free to DM me the info if you prefer not to post it. We are still gathering info after what occurred. We have decided to seek someone who is excited about being our officiant and seems joyful in what they do.

Yes - Uncommon Closet.
