Chicago, Valentines Day

Jump to last reply

Hi, My boyfriend and I are coming to Chicago for a Sunday-Wednesday trip to celebrate Valentines Day 2012. He has not been to Chicago since a child, I have been once. I have done some reserach but am now reaching out to the experts! We are in our low to mid thirities. I have already booked our hotel and we are staying in the downtown river north area at the Amalfi Hotel. This is a surprise for him! I would love to know any suggestions you may have for our trip, we will pretty much have Sunday afternoon through Wednesday afternoon. Here are some things I'm wondering?

1.) Can you get tours of Wrigley Field and Soldier Field? (I did this in Boston this summer at Fenway and it was great, we are both die hard sports fans)

2.) Are reservations at the Metropolitian Club in Willis tower worth it for Valentines day evening? Any better recommendations? He is very much a steak type of guy and I enjoy seafood.

3.) He might kill me if I make him shop Michigan ave and state street evryday, I'm well aware of the shopping however if you know any great mid-price boutiques, I would love the names, we will for sure be doing some shopping. I am a Francescas, Express, Limited, and Nordstrom type of girl.

4.) I think he would like the Field Museum so we will take time to go there. I don't believe he'd be really into the art museums. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

We do not have a plethera of money by any degree but I am saving for this trip. I'm a teacher and he is currently working part time after battling cancer.

Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. This is his Christmas present as I'm hoping he is strong by Valentines day!!
