Travel Note
Hotel Options
There are so many hotels (5 to 10 min) walking distance to the wedding venue. We recommend staying close by to avoid having to take an uber. The hotels range from smaller boutique hotels that are more affordable to four-star hotel options. AirBnBs can be another stay option for larger groups, but most AirBnBs will be a short drive to and from the wedding events. Below is a short list of hotels but you can see what other options are available via Expedia, Hotels.com or Booking.com. Take a look and see what catches your eye!
