Flight
For those of you flying in from out of town, we recommend flying to Chicago O'Hare (ORD) which is a large airport with lots of flight options (and less likely to see cancellations). It is an easy hour and 15 minute drive to Lake Geneva. Milwaukee’s airport is another good option with a scenic 45 minute drive to the lake. We recommend renting a car.

Shuttle
September 20, 2025 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm
We can’t imagine you coming to Lake Geneva and not experiencing the magic of the lake so we have arranged for you to travel to the reception on board historic steamboats. After the ceremony we recommend that you return to your hotel for shuttle service to the boat which will then bring you to the reception as parking in Lake Geneva can be problematic. Shuttles to board the boats will be provided from the Abbey Resort at 3:30 pm to go to the Riviera dock (812 Wrigley Drive, Lake Geneva) to board the boat. For those staying at the Cove hotel the Riviera is a 5 minute walk. The boat will board at approximately 4pm and leave at 4:15 and will bring you to the Lake Geneva Country Club’s dock in time for the reception. There will be beverages on the boat. For those unable to travel by boat there will be parking at the club. In case of inclement weather, please know the boat can be further enclosed and umbrellas will be provided.
Shuttle
September 20, 2025 9:00 pm - 1:00 am
Following the reception there will be shuttle buses leaving the Lake Geneva Country Club at 9:30, 10, 10:30, 11 and 11:30 pm to take guests back to their hotels. There will be an additional 11:30 bus at the end of the reception to take any guests directly to Chucks Lake Shore Inn where the bride and groom will greet you for late night celebrations. At 1am there will be a shuttle bus to bring all the revelers back from Chucks to their hotels.
