We can’t wait to celebrate with you in beautiful Charlottesville!

Please take note…

Our wedding weekend will be shared with the University of Virginia’s Family Weekend which creates significant demand for hotels and flights. That in mind, we’d recommend you book travel and lodging as soon as you’re able!

Lodging

We’ve reserved room blocks at The Forum and Boar’s Head for your convenience. We recommend booking within these blocks, as transportation will be provided to and from the wedding events. Rideshares in Charlottesville can be limited and virtually impossible to hail from the venue so staying in the block will make getting around much easier.

  • Located on 573 pastoral acres, Boar’s Head will host ”The Brider Cup” and our Farewell Brunch.

    Book here by Monday, September 7th.

    We’ve blocked Friday - Sunday. If you need a reservation for before or after these dates, or if you need to book more than two rooms, please call 434-972-7437 to speak with a Reservation agent. Reference the Wright-Abel Wedding Room Block, the code for our block is 1476.

  • Recently listed within Conde Nast’s top 16 hotels of the South, The Forum sits on the grounds of Kate’s alma mater, The Darden School of Business.

    Book here by Monday, September 21st.

  • In addition to great hotels, Charlottesville is home to many great home share options. Here are a few we’d recommend:

    Pink WKNDR (sleeps 8+) Great for combo singles & couples

    The Altavista House     (sleeps 6+)

    Birdcage BNB (sleeps 6+) Great for folks who want to be close to downtown

    We’ve also made a few reservations for places that don’t require a deposit. If you’re interested in those, reach out to Kate!

Traveling In

Charlottesville-Albemarle Airport (CHO)

Our regional airport is the closest and most convenient option, located 15-20 minutes away by car. It offers direct flights to/from several major hubs.

Richmond International Airport (RIC)

RIC is a 75-90 minute drive. As a larger airport with more flight option it makes a great alternative if flights to CHO are limited.

Charlottesville Station (CVS)

The Amtrak station is located in Downtown Charlottesville and is an excellent option for those coming from DC and NYC!

Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD)

Dulles is a major international hub about a 2 and a half hour drive. It offers the widest range of flights, ideal for guests traveling from farther away.
