Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport (MSP) is the closest airport accessible to all airlines. Then it is either a 90 minute drive to Chippewa, or you can fly from MSP to Eau Claire, WI (EAU) on Sun Country Airlines.
A rental car will give you more flexibility, as Uber and Lyft are not as prevalent in small town Wisconsin. There are shuttles that run from MSP to Eau Claire linked below. https://groometransportation.com/minneapolis-st-paul-airport/?&sd_client_id=0b10d25a-ee9c-4bfb-bc5d-82d87324a924#msp-routes
Either is fine. The ceremony is in Chippewa Falls and the reception is in Eau Claire. The two cities are about 20 minutes apart from each other, so your commute to either event will not exceed 30 minutes either way. Eau Claire is a larger city and so might have a larger choice of hotels and Airbnbs.
Your invitation will indicate how many seats we have reserved for you. If your invitation reads "Your name and guest" then we have reserved two seats for you. If not, we have reserved only one. The RSVP will also indicate all in your party who a seat has been reserved for. If your child's name is not listed and you are not able to RSVP for them, then a seat has not been reserved for them.
Semi-Formal: Tuxes and gowns are welcome, and so are suits and cocktail dresses.
There is no transportation from the hotels to the ceremony or the reception. If getting home from the reception is a concern for you, we suggest booking your hotel room at the Metropolis Resort and Convention Center as it is right next door to the reception venue.
Both have free parking lots!
