Need to find a Bar/Restaurant with view of Chicago Fireworks

My fiance and I are getting married on June 19th in Chicago, and its in all going to be pretty small and short, only running from 2-530pm really. After everything we wanted to go out with friend and any family that wanted to come along, so figuring between 20-40 people (20-ish being the most likely).

We were hoping to find a good place to go where we could just get some food, some drinks, and watch the Saturday night Fireworks. I have called a couple places I came across from searching, but they seem to want me to rent out a room, and make it like a full $4000 reception.

No.

Just want something small where we can see fireworks and talk to each other. But I am from Michigan and am now in Kansas, and my experience with Chicago is a weekend trip a couple years ago. So if anyone who has been there, or is from there, has any suggestions on good places that might have a view of the fireworks, let me know.

Also, I honestly am not set on seeing the Fireworks, if you just know of a really cool place to go on a Saturday night that might fit that many people, would love to hear that as well.

Thanks!

    The news about the 4th of July fireworks reminded me of this thread.

    The dates/times for the Navy Pier shows is here. Saturday shows are at 10:15pm, and really the only place to see it is at Navy Pier. They've got a Beer Garden. You can rent it out too; no idea on rates, etc., but now might still be a good time.
