Chicago is one of the largest cities in America and is probably most associated with The Bean. Despite being a major metropolis, the location on Lake Michigan provides ample picturesque spots in the city. This area is also a prime location for exquisite vacation rentals that can be used as wedding venues. In order to get married in Chicago, couples need to obtain a marriage license from the Cook County Clerk’s Office, which carries a validity of 60 days. Out-of-state residents can combine the wedding with a mini vacation in the city with visits to Millennium Park, Navy Pier, and Skydeck Chicago.
Chicago might be one of the most expensive cities to get married in, but the following rentals can help you plan weddings within budget. Continue scrolling to book from these best Airbnb wedding venues in Chicago, Illinois, for your special day.
