The Wedding Website of Nick Alexander and Lily Meiss
Airfare Recommendations If you're flying in, consider these airports: - Charlottesville Albemarle Airport (CHO): 15-minute drive to downtown C'ville - Richmond International Airport (RIC): 1 hour and 15 minutes to C'ville. - Washington DC Airports (IAD/DCA): About 2 hours’ drive to C'ville. Transportation Tips Renting a car is the most convenient way to enjoy the area. Alternatively, complimentary shuttles will be provided for the wine tour and wedding, with pickups/dropoffs in central C'ville locations. Uber is an option for other travels, though not available directly from the wedding venue. Accommodations Charlottesville and the surrounding areas offer numerous accommodation options. We've broken down the list of our recommendations below into 2 categories: "in town Charlottesville" and "blue ridge wine country". Both are great options depending on your interests for a weekend getaway. May is peak travel season, so we recommend booking early!
