Yes, for ease in Gulf Shores a rental car is best.
Gulf shores just opened a new Airport with a limited number of flights going into. Allegiant is one of the airlines that flies into that airport. Chris and I are flying into Pensacola. It’s about a 45 min drive from Orange Beach.
Chris and I rented a house here. There are several hotels close by or homes to rent. Gulf shores is pretty big so use our address to find something close by. We are pretty close to where the rehearsal dinner and the ceremony will be. 3165 Egret Run Orange Beach, AL 36561
