Be sure to factor in the actual driving distance, possible traffic and whether transportation has been arranged by the wedding party. ### Enough Space for Each Household Guests traveling for a wedding want to stay somewhere where they have enough personal space. Group guests by household, preferred sleeping arrangements and privacy needs so everyone can stay in comfort.

If anyone in the group needs an accessible option, include that in the lodging plan from the start.
