We have blocked out rooms at The General Morgan Inn Hotel as well as at The Hampton Inn, in Greeneville, TN from Friday- Sunday. You will find the information to book on the next tab labeled "Travel". Please call directly and let them know you are booking for the Festa-Thixton Wedding.
Where to Fly Into?
There are three airports that are close to the Greeneville area. Tri-Cities Airport, is located in Blountville, Tennessee and is about an hour from the hotel(s). The second airport is Asheville Regional Airport near Interstate 26 in the town of Fletcher, North Carolina. This is about an hour and a half away from the hotel(s). The third is in Knoxville, TN called McGhee Tyson Airport. It is located south of Knoxville, in Alcoa, Tennessee. This is about an hour and twenty minutes from the hotel(s).
If you need to rent a vehicle, these rental places are available at both airports.
-AVIS
-Budget
-Enterprise
-Hertz
-National Car Rental | Alamo
-Dollar Rent A Car | Thrifty Car Rental.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------I would highly recommend Knoxville out of the three. Due to Hurricane Helene, driving through Asheville, NC can be quite difficult!
Can I bring my children?
To allow all wedding guests, including parents, a night of relaxation and uninhibited revelry, we respectfully ask that no children attend our celebrations. Thank you!
Is your Wedding Indoors or Outdoors?
The simple answer is that it is both. The ceremony will be held at the Thixton household and that takes place outside. The cocktail hour will be on the roof of the hotel which is outside but has a covered tent, and then the reception will be in the grand ballroom. However, the rooftop is open all night. The temperature during this time is around 65-75 degrees during the day and around 45-50 degrees at night. Please pack/plan accordingly!
Where should we bring/send our wedding gift?
All contributions are gratefully received! Having you with us on our special day is the best gift we could ask for.
Though should you wish to help us keep the celebrations going, a cash gift towards our honeymoon/house fund would be greatly appreciated! There will also be a card box at the venue as well!
And if you are set on getting a gift, you can take a look at our registry and send it over to 195 North Creek Drive, Apt. 11102, Summerville, SC 29486. Thank you!!!
