    Hi All:

    I am getting married next summer at the Sheraton Chicago right off Michigan Ave.  I was looking for some really unique places to take photos with our bridal party the day of.  My fiance and I are both art enthusiasts, so I was trying to explore all of our options.  I was going to email the Institute, but didn't know if anyone has gotten information from them in the past.

    I was also thinking about wandering down Michigan Ave.  Nothing like some photos in front of Tiffany's with my ladies :)

    Any other good suggestions around there?  I know Millenium park is right there, so we will probably wander around there.

    Thanks for your help ladies!

    Most indoor venues (Museums, Union Station, etc) you generally need permits for. Anyplace that is free (ie Union Station) will kick you out very quickly without a permit, and if you try going in a place like a museum where you have to pay to get in, you can't really be incognito in your wedding garb so I'm sure they'll be quick to check if you have a permit :) The stairs in front of the MCA, though, make a great place for pictures!

    You could also go to the lake, in front of the Wrigley building, front of the Art Institute, by the lake, the bridge that connects to the Modern Wing at the Art Institute, etc. Good luck!

    Thanks Miss Stiletto!  That's what I figured about the permits... :)
