Hotel
We have a block of rooms reserved at $229/night for Friday and Saturday - just book mentioning the Nepom-Norton Wedding. This is our downtown hotel option - it's walking distance to lots of bars, restaurants, and the downtown Austin scene. We recommend not renting a car if you stay here to avoid parking costs (though they are offering us a discounted parking price of $18/night). You can book by calling their group reservations line at 1-888-627-8349. **Make sure to book before March 12, 2019 to get our rate!**

Hotel
These are two hotels right next door to each other, and we have rooms reserved at both of them! Rooms are $149/night (note that Double Rooms at the Courtyard are $154/night), and to get our rate just mention Nepom-Norton Wedding when you book. These hotels are a little outside downtown, but are priced accordingly and have plenty of free self-parking if you're renting a car, and easy access to Lyft or Uber if not. Courtyard has an onsite Bistro, and the Fairfield provides complimentary hot breakfast. **Make sure to book before March 15, 2019 to get this rate!**

Flight
Austin-Bergstrom is a major airport and only a short 15-20 minute cab ride into the heart of the city. It's definitely the closest option, but if it's easier or cheaper for you, you could also consider flying into San Antonio International Airport (SAT) and driving 1.5-2 hours.
Shuttle
April 13, 2019 3:30 pm - 12:30 am
We will be providing shuttle transportation to and from the venue for the wedding so you don't have to worry about driving! (It's a ways outside the city, so we highly recommend not trying to find it yourself.) Shuttles will depart from (1) The Sheraton Downtown and (2) The Courtyard Marriott/Fairfield Inn (they are right next to each other, so this will be one combined shuttle stop) at 3:30pm on Saturday. Please be there early to ensure an on-time departure! There will be enough shuttles for everyone, so don't worry if the first one fills up. After the wedding, we will have three times for shuttles leaving the venue - early at 9:30pm, main at 11:00pm, and late at 12:30am for those who wish to stay for the afterparty. All shuttles will make stops at BOTH hotel blocks as needed on the way back; just tell the driver which one you need.
Rental Car
Uber and Lyft (as well as regular cabs, Car2Go, and many other similar companies) work very well in Austin! Unless you are planning to do a lot of driving or extend your trip, you likely will not need a rental car at all. The airport is a short cab ride into the city, and the hotels are either walking distance or a 10-minute Uber ride away from the heart of downtown. We highly recommend using our shuttle for the wedding itself and relying on Uber or Lyft for the rest of your needs during your stay! If you've never used Uber or Lyft before, you can get a discount with the following: Uber: Sign up with code xl11b Lyft: Download the app using this link for a $15 credit: https://www.lyft.com/idi/NEPOM16960
House Or Rental
If hotels aren't your speed, Austin has tons of options on rental sites like Airbnb or HomeAway (a local Austin company!) at lots of price points. You should be able to find something unique and cool, either in the city or out in Hill Country a ways. Just keep in mind that if you're looking outside the city of Austin you'll most likely want to rent a car. If you're in the city, Uber and Lyft will work just fine. If you've never used Airbnb before, you can sign up using my referral link for $40 credit: https://abnb.me/e/HqlTeoqo3Q
