For guests who need to fly into Milwaukee, there are two convenient airports nearby.
1. Milwaukee Mitchell International Airport (MKE): This airport is conveniently located south of downtown Milwaukee.
2. Chicago O'Hare Airport (ORD): This airport is located just north of Chicago and is about 1 hour and 10 minute drive to Milwaukee. Flights may often be cheaper than MKE due to ORD being larger. There is an Amtrak Train and Greyhound routes that run from Chicago to Milwaukee. Additionally, there are plenty of rental car options at ORD.
Our ceremony is at a church just south of downtown Milwaukee and the reception is about 20 minutes south in the suburb of Caledonia, WI. There are no hotels directly in the surrounding area but the reception venue is located on a campground, Jellystone! The closest hotels are just north in Oak Creek, WI. Below is information on the campground and a few hotels that are conveniently located between the two that we recommend.
Our reception venue, the Ember Lodge, is housed on Jellystone Campground! There are cabin rentals, RV sites, and campsites available.
There are plenty of rental options on Airbnb and Vrbo in Milwaukee! Conveniently located and safe neighborhoods that we recommend: Bayview, Walkers Point, Historic Third Ward, Oak Creek, St. Francis, Cudahy, Franklin, Shorewood, and Wauwatosa.
