John Wayne Airport, Orange County (SNA)

For those flying in, we recommend using John Wayne Airport (SNA) in Orange County as your arrival and departure hub. It’s the closest airport to our wedding location and typically offers a smooth, stress-free travel experience. John Wayne Airport is just about 30 minutes north of San Clemente, making it a super convenient option. It’s a smaller airport, which means easier navigation, quicker baggage claim, and shorter lines — all wins in our book! Rideshare services, rental cars, and shuttles are all readily available from the airport to help you get to your accommodations with ease.
