The most convenient option is flying directly into Key West International Airport (EYW), just minutes from everything. Airlines including American, Delta, and United serve Key West with connections through major hubs.
By Car
Fly into Miami International Airport (MIA) and rent a car for one of the most scenic drives in America. Take US-1 South along the Overseas Highway through the Florida Keys — about 3.5–4 hours. The views are worth every mile.
Where to Stay
We've reserved a room block at Ridley House — our wedding accommodation in Key West. Staying here means you'll be right in the action with the rest of the wedding party. Book early, as Key West fills up fast during Lobster Fest weekend.

We're spending the day on a catamaran and jumping in the ocean — dress accordingly! Think resort-chic with functionality. You'll want to look great AND be ready to snorkel.
Wear your swimsuit as your base layer — you will be getting in the water. One piece, two piece, board shorts all welcome.
A breezy cover-up, linen shorts, a sundress, or a casual button-down over your suit is perfect. Light, comfortable, and easy to remove.
Sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat are highly encouraged. August in Key West is glorious and gloriously sunny. Protect yourself!
