Question
When should I book my accommodations?
Answer
We recommend booking your stay as early as possible. It’s a small town with only a handful of hotels and vacation rentals, and they fill up quickly in the summer. If you’re staying at our recommended hotel, you can reserve your room now and won’t be charged until 48 hours before check-in.
Question
Will transportation be provided?
Answer
Yes! Shuttle transportation will be provided to & from the venue from our designated hotels. We highly recommend renting a car for transportation to and from the airport, as rideshare services such as Uber and Lyft are not readily available in the area.
Question
Which airport should I fly into?
Answer
Gerald R. Ford International Airport (GRR) in Grand Rapids, MI is about an hour away. Please check out our Travel tab for more information about travel and lodging!
Question
What’s the weather like in June?
Answer
June in Newaygo, Michigan, is typically beautiful, with warm, sunny days and cooler evenings. Daytime temperatures average in the mid-to-upper 70s, while evenings can dip into the 50s and 60s. Our ceremony will be held outdoors, followed by an indoor reception. We recommend bringing a light layer for the evening and checking the forecast before packing, as Michigan weather can be a little unpredictable!

I have dietary restrictions, can you accommodate?

Question
The room block is full, do you have another option for accommodations?
Answer
We’ve reserved an additional room block at Hotel Rose in Rockford, Michigan, about 45 minutes from the venue. Shuttle service is unavailable from Hotel Rose, so guests staying there will need to arrange their own transportation. If you’d prefer to stay closer to the venue, we recommend checking Airbnb and Vrbo early, as local options are limited.
