Flight
Charlotte is an easy 1 hr 20 min drive away from Columbia where there are many nonstop domestic and international flights. If you chose to fly into Charlotte, we would recommend renting a car to get around and to Columbia. If you'd like to reduce driving time or not rent a car, flying to Columbia, SC is simple as well. Uber and Lyft are easy to use in the area to get you where you need to go. We will be providing Uber codes for the rehearsal dinner and ceremony for those who will not have a car.
Travel Note
If you are planning on exploring the city, it will depend on you if you'd rather stay closer to the city or closer to the venue. Many of the attractions are more centrally located in downtown Columbia. Our reception venue is at Lake Murray which is about 30 mins away from central Columbia. We have also listed a hotel near the venue in case you would like to stay there, there are many hotels off the same highway exit as the one listed if you'd like other options. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get a hotel block but if you need further guidance or recommendations, feel free to reach out to one of us!
