Travel Note
Downtown Milwaukee will be buzzing August 8-10 with the 2025 USA Triathlon Sprint and Olympic Distance National Championships happening along the lakefront near the Milwaukee Art Museum! This has made wedding planning a bit challenging -- hopefully we've alleviated any issues, and we look forward to catching glimpses of the competitions! We will be offering a shuttle from the room-block hotels to and from the wedding venue. While there will be nearby road closures for Triathalon events, the Museum will still be accessible by car for those who will be utilizing the Museum parking lot. If walking or driving to the venue, please allow ample time to navigate any crowds and bypass road closures. Details regarding the shuttle and venue parking are provided below.

Parking at the Milwaukee Art Museum: For our local guests, parking will be available at the Milwaukee Art Museum in the lot under the Museum.

The wedding ceremony will begin promptly at 5:30 pm, and guests may arrive as early as 5 pm when the Museum closes to the public.

Flight
Milwaukee has a great mid-size airport! It is located eight miles south of downtown, about a 15-minute drive from the venue and hotels. If you are planning on staying downtown for the entirety of your stay, there is no need to rent a car to get to the hotel from the airport. Taxis and rideshare services (Uber, Lyft, etc.) are readily available at the airport and in Milwaukee in general.
