Flight
The closest International Airport is going to be Portland, OR. There should be several flight options with multiple airlines. With advanced notice, we recommend using the Hopper App. You can select the dates you will be departing and returning. Hopper will then watch flights for you and will notify you when prices are likely at their lowest. You can purchase your tickets through the Hopper app, or look up the flight on the specific airline.
Travel Note
Driving to Oregon is also an option for those that would not like to fly. We will be driving. For those that are interested, we could start a carpool list with others in your area.
Hotel
This hotel is in St. Helens, OR which is the closest hotel to our wedding. It is approximately 22 minutes from where the ceremony and reception will be held.
Hotel
The next closest city with lodging is Longview, WA. For an affordable option we recommend staying here. It is approximately 35 minutes away from where we will be having our ceremony and reception. There are a few other places to stay if you look up "Hotels in Longview Washington"
Hotel
Although it is a pricier option, we recommend this hotel for those flying into the Portland International Airport. As a Marriott family we always recommend Marriott locations. It is approximately an hour and 15 minutes from our ceremony and reception. For cheaper options and ones that might be a little closer to our wedding, search "Hotels in Portland Oregon" for several good options.
Travel Note
For those who would like to make a vacation out of this trip, or for those that are traveling with larger families, we highly recommend using "Vrbo" to find an affordable place to stay. You will be able to find entire houses to rent at a very affordable price. There are several options that appear between the Portland, OR and Longview, WA areas. "Airbnb" is also a good option, but we notice that they tend to have more fees associated with them.
Travel Note
The bride's uncle has been kind enough to host the wedding on his property. He said he is able to run power to about 6 RVs. Please let the bride know if you are planning on bringing yours so that we can have everything set up for you. There is also plenty of space for whomever would like to stay the night at the "venue" and pitch a tent. Again, please let the bride know so we can plan accordingly!
Travel Note
Lastly, glamping is also an option. Although we cannot provide this for our guests, it is an option for everyone to choose for themselves if they wish. All of the tents need to be ordered at once. If you are interested in glamping at the venue, please reach out the bride so we can ensure everyone receives a glamping tent that wants one.
