Is there transportation to and from the hotels to the welcome party and ceremony/reception?

Answer

Yes! We will be providing trolleys to and from the venue where the welcome party, ceremony and reception will be. There will be trolleys that leave from the main lobby of the Long Boat Key Club and Zota Beach Resort. More details regarding timing to come. If you are staying in an air bnb, we will likely also provide trolleys from a central meeting location.
