It is important to take an occasional time-out from wedding planning and make time to connect and have fun with your sweetheart. Perhaps for a change of pace you could visit a museum together to learn about things unique to Chicago history or culture that you might also want to incorporate into your wedding.
This summer the Elmhurst Historical Museum has a FREE exhibit about Chicago's significance as a center for great American candy makers, featuring displays about legendary candy icons including Brach's Candies, Tootsie Rolls and Frango Mints. Sweet Home Chicago: The History of America's Candy Capital is going on now through September 30, 2012.
