Travel
By car Traverse City is approximately:
2 hours from Alma
2.5 hours from Rockford area
4.5–5 hours from Dayton, Ohio
4.5 hours from Akron, Ohio
The drive is scenic and easy, especially once you head north. We recommend allowing a little extra time in summer, as traffic can increase on Thursday and Friday afternoons.
Parking is available at the hotel for overnight guests. Additional nearby public parking is available downtown.
Where to Stay:
Our wedding will take place at Delamar Traverse City, located directly on West Grand Traverse Bay and within walking distance of downtown shops and restaurants.
We recommend staying at the Delamar for convenience. There are also several additional hotel and vacation rental options throughout Traverse City.
The ceremony will begin at 4:00 PM on 6/12/2026.
We recommend arriving Thursday evening to relax and enjoy Traverse City before the celebration or Friday early afternoon to allow time to settle in before the ceremony.
