Travel & Places To Stay

New York City area airports, in order of proximity to our wedding venue, are LGA, JFK, and EWR. We recommend flying into LGA or JFK if possible, as taxi/train travel to and from EWR (in Newark, New Jersey) can be expensive/inconvenient. New Year's Eve hotel prices in Manhattan tend to be steep, so we are recommending accommodations in Brooklyn - either in our neighborhood (Williamsburg, west of I-278) or closer to our wedding venue in downtown Brooklyn. We've negotiated discounted rates at Pod Brooklyn, The Williamsburg Hotel, EVEN Hotel, and Hotel Indigo. Information regarding these and a few other recommended hotels is below. Airbnb or VRBO are also good options. Once in NYC, we recommend traveling by subway like New Yorkers do! Taxis and Uber/Lyft/Via are also prevalent. The Williamsburg neighborhood is one subway stop from Manhattan, and a 20-minute Uber ride to our wedding venue. Downtown Brooklyn is closer to our wedding venue but a slightly longer subway ride into Manhattan.
