Shuttle Service

We have reserved school buses to transport our wedding guests from their hotels in the Galena area, to Oak Hill Farm, and then back to their hotel. The buses will depart from the hotels around 3:00 PM and will depart from Oak Hill Farm at 9:30 PM and again at 11:00 PM. Please let us know if you will be using this service when you RSVP! This will ensure that we reserve enough space for you on the bus.

The Irish Cottage Boutique Hotel

Dave & I, along with our wedding party and close family, will be staying at The Irish Cottage Boutique Hotel in Galena, IL. We highly recommend this hotel. When booking, they offer discounted rates for AAA members and senior citizens. If you have any difficulty finding the discounted rates section on their website, please text or call me (708) 268-5670.

Hotel

Stoney Creek Inn

Stoney Creek Inn in Galena, IL is a great option for anyone looking for a nice, clean hotel at an affordable rate! I've personally stayed at this hotel twice and had a great experience each time. I have reserved a block of rooms for anyone who wishes to stay both Saturday and Sunday (August 14-16). They did not offer a room block option for less than a two night stay. If you plan to stay the night of the wedding only, you can book regularly through their website. If you wish to stay here both nights, our room block code is FARRELLNOLDEN21. The rate for Saturday is $189 and the rate for Sunday is $75. If you have any questions, please text or call me at (708) 268-5670.

Hotel

Best Western Galena Inn & Suites

This hotel is in very close proximity to The Irish Cottage Boutique Hotel where the wedding party will be staying. There is actually only one building in between the two hotels. Dave and I have never personally stayed here but from the look of the pictures on their website it appears to be nice!

Hotel

Hawk Valley Retreat & Cottages

Hawk Valley is a great option for guests looking for something other than a standard hotel. Dave and I stayed at this bed & breakfast for a weekend in August 2020 and had a phenomenal experience! They offer rooms in the main house with private entrances & private bathrooms, as well as cottages. Both the rooms in the main house and the cottages come with an INCREDIBLE homemade breakfast each morning. Dave and I highly recommend Hawk Valley! Our shuttle service unfortunately will not be able to stop at this location.
