Our Wedding

Our first date was at Top Golf, and we closed it down. (Brittany thinks that it was her superb golf skills that impressed Mike right off the bat. ;)) Our second date was at Andretti's - Mike was stuck in traffic for 2 hours and was an hour and a half late. If you know Mike, he is always early. Brittany- not so much- but her 10 minutes late paled in comparison on that day. The wait for both of us was worth it.

Q + A

We have secured a block of rooms at Chateau Elan! Here is the link to book: <a href="https://be.synxis.com/?Hotel=26859&amp;Chain=10237&amp;arrive=2024-12-31&amp;depart=2025-01-01&amp;adult=1&amp;child=0&amp;group=12312024CON" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Conklin-Husted Wedding Room Block CEA</a> (If you are looking to extend your stay beyond the night of December 31st, Chateau Elan can extend the same rate to one day before (12/30) and after (1/1) the date. They told us that it is based on availability and is not guaranteed. Call the Group Room Coordinators directly at (706) 605-2251, and make sure that you reference the group name: Conklin-Husted Wedding Room Block CEA.)

There is a shuttle that goes from Chateau Elan to the Hampton Inn. It is right next to the property, so you'll be close for all the action! (We inquired about a room block, but we found better rates than the one we were given on Trivago and Hampton Inn's website.)
