Wedding Party

Q & A

HOTEL

We are recommending that guests book at the Embassy Suites by Hilton in Hunt Valley, which is 5 miles from the venue. You are absolutely not required to book here, but it will be the location of the wedding "after party," so if you wish to attend, you may find it more convenient!

AIRPORT

We highly recommend that guests plan to fly into Baltimore (BWI), which is the closest airport to both the venue and the Hilton Embassy Suites hotel. While you can certainly fly in to Washington, DC (DCA), please note that it will be over an hour and a half drive away.

Renting a Car?

You should be able to get by just fine with an Uber/Lyft/taxi from the airport to the hotel and back. Baltimore-area sightseeing will also have fairly reliable public transportation. However, you might find it convenient to rent a car as well, especially if you plan to drive to Washington, DC. We recommend just renting a car at the airport for maximum convenience! (Driving in DC can be a little hectic, but note that the city is notoriously empty during the Thanksgiving holiday - making it a great time for the rare tourist!)

Travel

Baltimore is a large city with plenty of museum and entertainment options for all ages and interests. More than that, Baltimore is just about an hour drive out of Washington, DC! Here are just a few tourist destinations for those coming from out of town.
