Travel and Lodging

We recommend booking lodging sooner, rather than later. Milwaukee is a busy place in the summer and our date is on the second weekend of Summerfest. Accommodation for the weekend will book up quickly. If you have any questions about getting here or alternative places to stay, please let us know! There are some beautiful historic hotels downtown and AirBnB/VRBO is always a great option. We have reserved a block at the hotels below. Please let us know if you have any questions!
