Drive! It is an incredible drive from Texas to Wyoming with numerous National Parks along the way. Driving through is one of our favorite memory of making it to Grand Teton.
We recommend driving through New Mexico, Utah, & Colorado.
Wanna see even more National Parks along the way?
- Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico
- White Sands New Mexico
- Mesa Verde Colorado
- Great Sand Dunes Colorado
- Rocky Mountain National Park - Colorado
- Canyonlands Utah
- Arches National Park Utah
You can also fly to Jackson Hole directly.
Per the wedding venue about flying into Jackson:
Jackson Hole Airport (JAC) is the only airport that serves the Jackson Area. It is located 26 miles (35 minutes) north of the wedding venue and is the only airport within the national park. It is serviced by major airlines (Delta, American, and United). Due to the popularity of the park, we recommend booking flights early.
If you are okay with some additional driving and might want to fly into a larger airport, you can fly into Idaho Falls Airport (IDA) which is located 90 miles/2 hours west of the park. You could also fly into Salt Lake City International Airport (SLC) which is 306 miles/5 hours south of the park.
There are MANY potential lodging options near the wedding venue.
Note: Due to the size of the national park, a rental car or carpooling will likely be required to get from a hotel accommodation (if not the same as a venue) to the location.
***Wedding Venue*****
There are multiple lodging locations within Grand Teton Lodge Company. The ceremony and reception will be at Jackson Lake Lodge. However, the other properties are a short drive away.
