For Those Traveling Out of State

The closest major airports for our wedding are Chicago O’Hare (ORD), Indianapolis (IND), and St. Louis Lambert (STL). All three are roughly a 2.5–3 hour drive to the Lovington/Mt. Zion area. If you prefer a smaller airport closer to the wedding site, consider Bloomington, IL (BMI), Springfield, IL (SPI), or Peoria, IL (PIA). Rental cars are highly recommended for travel between the airport, hotel, and wedding venue.
