Q + A
What is the best airport to fly into?
Palm Beach International (PBI) is the closet (4.2 miles) to the wedding site.
The AKA hotel West Palm Beach, with the Napolitano / Layman wedding room block, provides free shuttle service from this airport.
It may be worthwhile to check flight options into Ft. Lauderdale- Hollywood International airport (FLL) the 2nd closest option (51 miles) the high speed Brightline Train can be taken from Ft. Lauderdale to the West Palm Beach station which is .07 miles from the AKA hotel.
What is the dress code for the wedding?
Palm Beach Summer Chic! Think flowing summer dresses and lightweight summer suits, leaning towards a lighter color palette. The Average temperature in West Palm Beach in May is 81 degrees, and while our ceremony is early evening and close to the water, we will be outdoors.
Dress accordingly!
Is it easy to get an Uber or Lyft in South Florida?
Yes! Uber and Lyft pick ups abound in our area. Allow about 15 minute tops for a pick up during peak times, however cars can arrive as quickly as 3-5 minutes after being called.
How close is the beach?
The Brazilian Avenue public beach access point in Palm Beach is 2.2 miles from the hotel or about a 10min drive.
What if I want to extend my trip?
We highly recommend taking full advantage of your time in the Sunshine State! You can connect with the hotel directly by April 5th for a request to extend the wedding block special rate if you want to stay in the WPB area. You will also be 71 miles from Miami, 170 miles from Orlando (both accessible by the Brightline high speed train) and 231 miles from Key West. All excellent options for an extended vacation!
What should I pack?
Pack as you would for a tropical summer vacation. Shorts, sandals, sundress, bathing suits and beach attire are all appropriate for South Florida in May. Sunglasses and hats (along with sunscreen) are highly recommended.
And while the lifestyle is casual, there may be a loose dress code in some restaurants, especially recommended for men to have a short sleeve collared shirt for dining. Also consider to have a lightweight jacket or light sweater on hand if the A/C gets a little too chilly while indoors.
