Question

Are shuttles to the venue/airport available from the hotel?

Answer

Yes, before the ceremony the hotel does provide a shuttle on a first-come, first-served basis. We recommend requesting the shuttle no later than 25 minutes before you would like to depart. Shuttles are NOT available after dinner, so we do not recommend relying on this transportation. Please see the Guest Accommodations tab for information on transportation options.

How do I access the venue?

Answer

When you arrive, please let the gatekeeper know you are there for the wedding of the century, and the gates will be opened . 30 minutes prior to the ceremony start time, the gates will remain open for all guests to arrive. If you need to call a cab/ride share at the end of the night, please have your driver tell the gatekeeper they are picking you up at the Country Club following the wedding.

Question

Is parking available?

Yes, of course! There is ample parking in the front of the country club, as well as additional parking in the rear if necessary. Guests who have had too much to drink may leave their cars overnight at the venue, provided the cars are collected in a timely manner the following day.
