Central Illinois Regional Airport at Bloomington-Normal (BMI) is about an hour away from Champaign and the easiest to navigate! We recommend flying into this airport if you are able to find a flight that works with your schedule.

For larger airports with more flight options, you can also fly into either of the two Chicago International Airports, Midway (MDW) and O’Hare (ORD), or Indianapolis International Airport (IND). These are about a 2 hour drive from Champaign.

University of Illinois Willard Airport (CMI) is located just 15 minutes from our ceremony location. It is the smallest option, so flight options may be limited. There is a shuttle service available if you choose to stay with our wedding block at the Hyatt Place in downtown Champaign.

A block of rooms at a discounted rate has been reserved at the Hyatt Place in downtown Champaign. Use the link below and the code G-HEWD to reserve online. To reserve rooms over the phone, call the hotel directly at 217.531.2800 option 0 and ask for the Harrington & Ely Wedding Block. These rooms will be held for us until 10/22/2021.
