So DH and are wanted to do something for our anniversary, but since we are trying to save money our budget is very limited. We decided to go to Chicago, I'm looking for suggestions on where to say that is near Navy Pier. Cain's Ma can get us a pretty decent price on the Radisson for the night of June 4th & 5th, but we wanted to make sure their wasn't other places to stay that are a bit closer.

 

Also what other things would you suggest we do/see? The 5th is our anniversary so I'd like to do something special that day, maybe a massage somewhere or something.. Would love your ideas..

May I suggest this website...

Choose Chicago - the official visitors site for Chicago | Tours and attractions

 

Millenium Park is nice to go to and see the bean and the water things that the kids and those of us kid like adults play in. Lincoln Park Zoo is free.If the Cubs are playing when you are there get some bleacher seats and go there. Nothing like a game at Wrigley.

In terms of things to do for your anniversary like a spa and dinner, I have a few suggestions.

 

Spas

1) Allyu (pronounced Ah-yoo) Spa Allyu Spa - Chicago Day Spa - Massage, Acupuncture, Facials and more

they have GREAT treatments and even better prices. you can do side by side massages here! (plus its across the street from my house!)

 

2) Spa Space Chicago spa: Spa Space Downtown Chicago - a great spa, but kind of expensive.

 

3) Bliss Spa in the W Hotel on Lakeshore Drive. Really nice, but kind of way overpriced if you ask me, and way more boutique-y than Allyu.

 

For dinner, what kind of cuisine are you feeling? I have lots of ideas for that depending on what kind of food you want.

 

Also, I would recommend a boat tour. This is a good one that has a couple options and it boards on the river off of Michigan Ave near Wacker. Wendella Sightseeing Boats, Chicago original since 1935, Schedules and information

I DEFINITELY Second Maura on the Boat Tour, they are very educational and scenic. They take you down the chicago river and out on Lake Michigan. It is one of my most favorite things to do in the city. I've lived her 12 years and I've been 5 times and never get sick of it!! My suggestion is to get tickets early b/c they do sell out. you'll most likely have fantastic weather in June, so it's lovely thing to do during the day!

also for dinner, DeLaCosta is a nice restaurant near Navy Pier within walking distance. I've been there a number of times and enjoyed myself.

      Cabo Azul Wedding Cost / Review

      By Emmma · Posted

      Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!

      Wedding venues and wedding planner in Costa Rica

      By KristinaH · Posted

      Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
