Question

Do you have any hotel recommendations?

Answer

Yes! We have a block at the Hilton Garden Inn and have provided additional options in the Travel section of the website!

Question

How do I get to your venue & is there parking?

Answer

If you are staying in Oregon City/Clackamas or coming from out of town, please feel free to park at the Hilton Garden Inn in Clackamas, there will be two shuttles taking people to the venue. The first shuttle will depart from the Hilton at 3pm and the second at 3:15pm. The evening return shuttles back to the hotel will depart at 9pm for the earlier folks & 10:20pm after the reception. You do not have to stay at the Hilton Garden Inn in order to use the shuttle. If you would prefer to drive yourself to the wedding venue, there is a parking lot onsite. Uber and Lyfts also work great but the shuttles will be your best option!
