    OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

    The Chicago Cultural Center is in a prime location, you can rent out the space to have your own private wedding ceremony and then walk across the street to have photos at the Bean or anywhere in Millennium Park.  As the time gets close to cocktail hour, make sure to take advantage of the beautiful architecture and ornate decor that the Center has to offer.  An couples photo in the Preston Bradley Hall with Tiffany glass ceiling is a must have.  Night shots are also amazing when lit correctly.
