Yes, we have a room block at the Louisville Marriott Downtown but there are several other hotels around there if you have like to stay at a Hilton or Hyatt for example. There are also airbnbs in the area. Due to the music festival being the same weekend we encourage you to book quickly as there may not be options closer to the wedding day. You can always reach out to the bride if you have any questions about accommodations.
We will have a shuttle from the Louisville Marriott to Churchill Downs starting at 4pm and back at the end of the night.
Andrew and I will be at the Louisville Marriott Downtown Bar Friday evening, 5-7pm EST, for any guests arriving the day before and we can welcome you! Also, we are encouraging people to go to the racetrack before the wedding if they would like to see a few races. We just want you to be on time for the actual wedding events!
Please RSVP by August 1
The ceremony and reception will all be at the Kentucky Derby Museum
Yes! We are encouraging our guests to enjoy Louisville to the fullest. We just ask if you do participate in horse racing beforehand to be mindful of the time of the ceremony and still be able to party and enjoy the wedding! The museum is connected into churchill downs so it a quick walk over for the ceremony and reception.
