Travel and Hotels

Below you’ll find details about travel and hotel recommendations near the venues.

Travel

Getting In

We recommend flying into MKE - Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport!

ORD - Chicago O'Hare is about an hour and a half drive from Milwaukee.

MDW - Chicago Midway is about a two hour drive from Milwaukee.

Getting Downtown

There a lots of ways to get in downtown! Many hotels are only about 10-15 minutes from the airport. There are several car rental options as well, and Lyft and Uber rides are usually relatively inexpensive. The welcome party and reception are both walkable from some of the recommended hotels, so Uber / Lyft are likely the most cost effective transportation for the weekend!

Driving From Ohio

For those loved ones driving in from Ohio, don't forget about the time change! OH is EST, and Milwaukee is CST.

We've miscalculated drive time before and learned the hard way ;)

Hotels

We don’t have reserved room blocks, but here are some suggested options.

Unfortunately many hotel prices are higher than normal due to other events/concerts/Brewers games going on in downtown Milwaukee the same weekend (just our luck!), so there are some additional locations mentioned that are a little further outside of downtown.

Feel free to book wherever works best for you, and please text Jenna if you have additional questions or concerns!
