The Wedding Website of Ashlyn Zaiontz and Ethan Batson
We're so glad you can join us! We recognize the majority of our attendees will be coming from out of state so we have included below some recommendations for travel and lodging.

Flight

Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT)Charlotte Douglas International Airport (CLT)

While North Carolina has many airports, you'll find CLT to be the closest to our venue. We recommend flying into this airport, as it is approximately 2 hours from the venue by car!

Rental Car

Vehicle RentalsVehicle Rentals

Please be aware, the city of West Jefferson does not have Ubers or Taxis, so a rental car is very much recommended! We recommend carpooling if possible to make travel once you arrive a bit easier.

Hotel

Since our wedding is hosted in the mountains, hotel style lodging is relatively limited in the direct vicinity. There is a large quantity of Bed and Breakfasts in the area, and there is a Holiday Inn Express in West Jefferson, but overall we find that the towns of Boone and Blowing Rock (about 35 minutes away) have far more options. While we recommend taking advantage of the lovely views and finding a cabin or weekend vacation rental, we understand this may not be feasible to everyone, so here is a list of our favorite hotels nearby: The Horton Hotel - Boone, NC Courtyard Boone - Boone, NC The Embers Hotel - Blowing Rock, NC The Blowing Rock Manor - Blowing Rock, NC

House Or Rental

AirBnb / VrboAirBnb / Vrbo

For a more intimate option than a hotel, we recommend checking AirBnb and Vrbo for any local places to stay near West Jefferson, NC. There is an unlimited number of quaint cabins local to the area that we believe are far more enjoyable and private than any hotel.
