About Corvallis and Philomath
Corvallis is home to Oregon State University, with an adorable downtown and easy access to local forests, hikes, the Cascade Mountains and the Pacific Ocean.
Philomath is the town that Ian and Carly live in, just five minutes West of Corvallis. While Philomath could be called quaint, there aren’t many places to stay in town or much to do. We recommend staying in Corvallis!
Hotel block
Hilton Garden Inn
The link here gets you 15% off at the Hilton Garden Inn. If you’d rather call, be sure to mention you are getting the wedding rate special!
Please note that this is not a block since our group is small, so if you plan to stay at the hotel, please consider booking sooner rather than later!
Flying in
You’ve got two great options for flying in to Oregon.
Portland Airport is about 90 minutes North of Corvallis (depending on traffic) and is the largest airport in the state. There is plenty to do in the city of Portland, if you’re interested in exploring, check out our things to do recommendations!
Eugene Airport is 45 minutes south of Corvallis and is closer to the size of a regional airport. You can still catch great flight deals, so be sure to add it to your destination list if you’re comparing flights.
Transportation to the wedding
Shuttle service
We will have shuttle service between the hotel and the venue due to limited parking.
If you plan to take the shuttle but are NOT staying at the hotel, you can purchase overnight parking in the hotel lot for $20. If you’re like us and think that’s silly, there is university parking across the street from the hotel for free!
