This marathon event is designed to unite the traditions of marriage ceremonies with cannabis culture in a unique and immersive experience. The Weed Love to Marry You initiative is scheduled to take place on February 21, 2026, at Chicago's Greenhouse Loft, which is a premier wedding venue. Ivy Hall's event will feature four selected couples participating in full-service ceremonies where cannabis-friendly consumption is integrated alongside traditional vows. The response to this unconventional offering was remarkably strong, with over two hundred couples applying for the opportunity. Each chosen couple will receive a bespoke ceremony experience within the Ivy Lounge, complete with full wedding production, on-site consumption options for themselves and their guests, elevated refreshments including [cannabis-infused bites and cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/strawberry-champagnes), coffee from [Dark Matter Coffee](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/high-on-rye), and pop-up experiences featuring local cannabis brand partners.
