Question

What are the travel recommendations and nearest airport?

Answer

The recommended hotels are in Newark, DE (40 minutes south of the Philadelphia airport, 5 minutes from the Wilmington airport). If you're flying in, we'd recommend either renting a car for the weekend or you could take an uber/lyft to the hotels, which would cost around $50 each way to/from the Philadelphia airport. The Welcome Party is in Wilmington, DE (15 min north of the hotels by car). The Wedding venue is in Middletown, DE (25 minutes south of the hotels). The Post-Wedding Brunch is in Newark, DE (15 minutes from the hotels).

Where should I stay?

Answer

Our preferred hotel is the Christiana/Newark DE Hilton. Our curtesy shuttle to the wedding will be leaving from and returning to this hotel. If you do plan to use one of our hotel blocks, please let us know in your RSVP so we have plenty of rooms available for guests. You can find more information on accommodations, including booking codes and special rates, on our website's "Hotel Blocks" page.
