Question

Most people fly into CDG airport, however you can also fly into ORLY airport and be just as close to the city center. Keep in mind that the drive from the airport can take as long as an hour, if there is heavy traffic.
Question
When should I fly in?
Answer
If you are a guest, the LATEST you should arrive is at least 1 day before the wedding, as you will likely be jet lagged after you land. If you are in the wedding party, the LATEST you should arrive would be 2 days before the wedding. You will lose 2 days (1 flying, 1/2 time difference), plus you will most likely be jet lagged the 1st day. The day before the wedding we will have our rehearsal followed by rehearsal dinner. Paris is loaded with museums and sightseeing so if your schedule allows, we would of course suggest staying a week or more.

Question
Do you have a hotel block/group rate?
Answer
Yes! We currently have a hotel block at Odaly’s City Montmartre. This is in the GORGEOUS Montmartre, about 20min away from all the main sites, but a town with MUCH to do, including the Sacre Coeur, Dali museum, Museum of Montmartre, Place du Tertre, etc. with its cobblestone roads and history of its residents (including Picasso, Renoir, Monet, Van Gogh) this is a town that truly captures the feel of “old Paris”, away from the traffic and modernity of the 1st and 2nd arrondissements. Studio apartments for up to 2 people are $115, and 2 bedroom apartments are $180. To reserve, please email Yoza at theyozagirl@gmail.com with the type of room you would like to reserve, as well as the full names of each person staying in the room. Payment will be requested before October.
