Travel & Stay

Whether you want to enjoy Paris leading up to or after the wedding, or stay close to the reception in Chessy, here are some recommendations for your stay.

Paris

The reception takes place at the Mairie du 8ème, a central neighborhood that will put you a short subway ride away from most of Paris' main attractions.

To get an idea, a 30 min walk from the venue can take you to well-known attractions in the city such as the Opera (15 min walk), the Champs Elysées and Arc de Triomphe, Montmartre and the Sacré Coeur, the Palais du Louvre and Jardin des Tuileries or the Quais de Seine.

Flying in

For those flying in from abroad, you will be arriving either in Orly or Roissy Charles de Gaulle. Both airports are about 1h ride to central Paris and offer public transportation (RER B for Roissy, RER C for Orly). Both the RER and taxis are fairly well indicated by the airport signage.

Once you are in Paris, the subway can take you pretty much anywhere in the city in about 30 min. Uber, Bolt, and G7 are the most commonly used ride apps.

Accomodations in Paris

There are plenty of accommodation options in Paris, and of course airbnb. Anything in the aforementioned area will be close enough that you will be able to reach the venue in 30 min. If you want to be really close, here are a few hotel options in the immediate vicinity of the Ceremony venue (Mairie du 8ème Arrondissement):

Chessy

Accomodations in Chessy

Disneyland Paris being one of the biggest tourist destinations worldwide, Chessy has plenty of accommodations to offer. Here are a few suggestions in the vicinity:
