Flight
Sacramento International Airport will be the closest airport for all of our non-California friends and family attending. The wedding venue is approximately one hour from the airport by car and we would recommend renting a vehicle. If you are traveling with others it may be beneficial to split a larger vehicle.
Hotel
We have secured a block of rooms at the Holiday Inn in Auburn, which is a 25 minute drive from the Forest House Lodge. The rooms come with a 15% discount, up to 30 days prior to arrival. Discounted rates are; Thursday $139.99 and Friday $179.99. Rooms with one King bed or two Queen beds are available. These rooms are not guaranteed to be available, just the rates, so book as early as possible. Use the link provided to get the discount rate.
Flight
For those traveling to the Bay Area that are looking to spend more time here, either before or after the wedding, San Francisco International Airport may be a good option. There is easy access via BART and all of the classic sightseeing stops are in the city. Uber and Lyft service this airport with easy instructions via each of the apps.
Travel Note
We decided on this date to go along with the holiday weekend to allow our out of town guests to get the most out of their time and travel. With that, hotels and flights may be more expensive the longer you wait to make your reservations. If you are planning on spending more time in Northern California, please look for travel deals on any of the extras you are planning to do and book early!
Flight
Southwest Airlines has numerous flights from Phoenix and consistently has sales for flights to and from California. They make it very easy to purchase a flight and then change it if there is a better sale later on.
