Travel & Lodging
Getting to Austin
Fly into Austin Bergstrom International Airport (AUS). From there, it's a short drive into the city via car rental or rideshare.
Hotels & Airbnbs
The weekend's events will be in and around Austin proper, so we recommend booking lodging near the Downtown or South Congress areas—that's where we'll be! Both neighborhoods are conveniently located to our favorite restaurants, shops, and the Lady Bird Lake Trail.
There are plenty of great Airbnbs in Austin, and here are some of our other favorite hotels:
Let us know if you have questions about where to book!
Transportation
Car rentals and ride-shares are accessible options throughout Austin. You will be able to call a ride-share service to and from the wedding venue—our grandparents' home—and we will provide optional shuttle service back to town after the reception. If you plan to take the shuttle back to downtown Austin, please fill out this form!
Attire
For the welcome festivities
Casual chic—whatever you feel festive in! Drinking and dancing are highly likely.
For the ceremony & reception
Garden party formal—think soft colors and classic silhouettes.
For the ladies, this means pants or longer dresses. For the gentlemen, this means suits, tie optional, and leather shoes or boots. We kindly ask that you refrain from wearing true white, highly saturated colors, denim, golf shirts, polos, or khakis.
The ceremony and reception will be held outdoors at our grandparents' home, with a mixture of limestone and grass underfoot. Ladies, please choose your shoes with care! Wedges, platforms, or flat shoes are strongly advised. We also recommend bringing a layer just in case.
Please browse our Pinterest board for inspiration, and reach out to us if you have any questions!
