Travel & Accommodations
We are so lucky and grateful to have all of our wonderful friends and family join us in celebrating our marriage! This being said, it is technically a destination wedding. Micah and I fell in love with the mountains, and we thought it would be a magical backdrop and sacred space to commit to each other for the rest of our lives.
We really appreciate all of you for your efforts to make it to Tennessee to celebrate with us. If you go through the effort to make it out, just know— Micah and I know a thing or two about how to throw a party. And, we are ready to have the time of our lives with all of our lovely people!
Getting There
By Air
McGhee Tyson Airport (TYS) is the closest to Gatlinburg. It is a super easy hour flight to Knoxville from Sanford Airport (SFB)! Note that even though it is the closest airport, Knoxville is still about an hour away from downtown Gatlinburg, where the festivities are taking place. So a rental car will be a necessity if you choose to fly! :)
Road Trip Besties!
If you aren't a fan of flying, it is just shy of a 10 hour drive from Orlando, FL to Gatlinburg, TN. Grab some snacks, food, and your comfiest pants, and we will see you Friday night for Welcome Drinks and S'mores! :) (Or earlier ;) )
Where to Stay
We're suggesting everyone stay in Gatlinburg, TN — the bigger town closest to the wedding venue. All hotels below are approximately a 30 minute drive to Trailhead Venues.
Rocky Waters Inn
Our PickThis is the hotel Micah and I love to stay in when we visit Gatlinburg. Take a look at the pictures, and you'll see why. The creek that rushes behind the hotel offers a private rustic oasis in the heart of the bustling downtown.
Hotel Indigo Gatlinburg
Bougie VibesHotel Indigo is a newer hotel in Gatlinburg, TN and is absolutely stunning. This is the hotel my parents (it's Julia hey) are staying in. So if you wanna hang out with Kim and Dave, this is the place to be! :) Since this is a little more on the bougie end, there is no complimentary breakfast. But, there is a restaurant and rooftop bar that I will definitely be sneaking over to checkl out!
Greystone Lodge
ConvenientThis is an Allen family favorite! Very close to all the attractions, it is the perfect option for people traveling with kids. Clean, comfortable, and convenient!

This is a beautiful option for your stay in Gatlinburg! It is a little further off the main drag, but definitely worth checking out.
