The easiest airport to fly into is Tucson International Airport. Currently, flights to Tucson are as affordable, if not more so, than those to Phoenix. Should you fly into Phoenix, expect a straightforward two-hour drive south.
Transportation options are abundant, with both car rentals and rideshares (Uber/Lyft) readily available.
We are pleased to offer ample free parking for both the welcome party and the wedding.
Assistance will be provided for guests with mobility needs and those wearing heels at both events. For the welcome party, please contact Erin or William for assistance upon arrival, as William's parents live at the top of a steep driveway. For the wedding, a golf cart will be available to transport guests from the parking lot to the venue and will operate throughout the night for any guest needs.
We recommend booking an Airbnb rather than a hotel, as there are few hotels near the venue. An Airbnb between the Welcome Party location and the wedding venue, approximately 15 minutes from each, would be ideal. This also gives you the chance to explore the city and visit Mt. Lemmon if you wish.
If multiple groups prefer hotels over Airbnb, please inform Erin. She will arrange a block of rooms at a discounted rate and provide the details.
