Travel
For those flying in, the MSP airport is about a 45 minute drive from the wedding venue. We will have a shuttle transporting to the White Bear Hotel before (2:45 pm) and after (10 pm) the event, but if you are not planning on taking the shuttle, you are welcome to stay wherever you like. The reception will end at 10 pm, if that impacts your plans. A few other hotels have blocks for us/deals, but they will not have the shuttle. There are also a few pet-friendly options in Stillwater.
