The Knoxville airport is the closest airport to Gatlinburg. It is about one hour away.
Where should we stay?
There is a block of hotel rooms held at a group rate at the Hilton Garden Inn in Gatlinburg. This is where the informal optional afterparty will be and where the bride and groom will be staying. This hotel is also connected to the Hampton Inn in Gatlinburg. There is another block of hotel rooms at the Courtyard Gatlinburg Downtown. There is a third block of hotel rooms at Country Inn and Suites by Radisson Gatlinburg. Check the travel tab for more information about each hotel. There are many other hotels, cabins, air bnb’s, and accommodations in the area to choose from.
What’s the parking situation?
The wedding venue has a parking lot at the bottom of the hill. There will be a shuttle to bring guests up and down the hill between the parking lot and the venue. The shuttle is wheelchair accessible and will be available the entire duration of the event.
Please check with your hotel accommodations about their parking information for your stay.
Can I Uber or Lyft?
You will likely be able to uber or Lyft from the Knoxville airport to Gatlinburg, but there are very few ride share options in Gatlinburg. There are taxi services that can drive you from Gatlinburg. The town of Gatlinburg is very walkable.
Where’s the afterparty?!
Please join the bride and groom for an optional informal afterparty in the lobby of the Hilton Garden Inn at 10pm Saturday night. Stay as long as you’d like!
Can we bring people who are not on the invitation?
No <3
Will there be an open bar?
Duh.
Is the ceremony outside?
Yes! And the cocktail hour! Please dress accordingly and remember sunscreen, sunglasses or an umbrella. Hydration is important, too.
