I would book as far in advance as you can. With it being the holiday season, places book fast. You can look up hotels on google as well as air bnbs on their website for waxhaw, Ballantyne, fort mill etc.
You can find our registries in the registry tab on this website. The bed bath and beyond one has some household things we really want! Target has some other minor things.
