We've reserved room blocks at two hotels very close to the Skirball (The Luxe and The Angeleno). We've also reserved room blocks at a few hotels in Westwood and Santa Monica. The Skirball is a short drive from many other neighborhoods in West LA, including Century City and Culver City.

You have the option of coming in on Friday or Saturday and hotel blocks will be reserved through Monday. Please note there are no formal events planned for Friday, but you are welcome to come in early to explore LA!

One additional note: If you intend to visit LA prior to our wedding, please be aware that Sunday, February 13th is the Super Bowl in Los Angeles. There is very limited hotel availability in LA for that weekend.
