Selma, Alabama, is located in Dallas County in the Black Belt region of south-central Alabama. Situated on the banks of the Alabama River, it is approximately 50 miles (one hour's drive) west of the state capital, Montgomery, and roughly 97 miles (1 hour 50 minutes) south of Birmingham.
The Montgomery Regional Airport is the closest to Selma. Its about 37 miles east of Selma, and a 45-50 minute drive. Birmingham Shuttlesworth International Airport is another option. It is about a two hour drive.
There are incredible Airbnbs in the historic downtown of Selma. This is great option if you are looking to book as a family or with a friend group. Unfortunately, our little small town is quite limited on hotels. We have the Hampton Inn and Holiday Inn Express that are right beside each other. The Historic St. James Hotel is currently closed but will hopefully be back open before the wedding weekend. If that is the case, We highly recommend!
No, unfortunately Selma does not have uber. But! We are working on our own form of safe transportation for the weekend. AC has coined the term “Goober” and our goober drivers will be your uber drivers for the weekend
The reception is in Safford, Alabama which is about a 20 minute drive from the ceremony. There will be bus transportation for the guests. More details about bus arrival and departure times to come! If you wish to drive your own car, please be sure to have someone ready as your sober driver.
