- Travel and related issues
We recommend flying into SeaTac (SEA) airport, which is about a half hour south of Seattle proper.
Discounted hotel accomodations have been arranged for guests at:Comfort Suites at Seattle Center
601 Roy Street
Seattle, WA 98109
(206) 282-2600
Call and mention the Schweers/White wedding to get the special $69/night rate (not available through internet reservations).
It's a decent hotel, in a so-so neighborhood, and there's some construction going on, but it's VERY close to our ceremony site, and with the group discount it's also relatively inexpensive...oh, and it's about 2 blocks away from the Space Needle, the Experience Music Project, and the Science Fiction Museum.
There are other hotels in the Seattle area, of course. One that is a bit more expensive, but has our particularly high regard is:Red Lion on 5th
1415 5th Avenue
Seattle, WA 98101
(206) 971-8000
The majority of our guests are travelling to attend our wedding. We strongly feel that the presence of our family and close friends is the best gift we could hope for, and so is the only one we ask for. Please do come, take a weekend off and enjoy our newly-adopted city. Check the 'Things To Do' link on the left for our recommendations of fun things to do and see in the Emerald City while you're here.

- For those of you flying in early for our wedding, we will be having a luncheon at the activity center at our apartment complex on Friday the 27th 10:30am to 2pm. If you're not out enjoying our adopted city, we would love to see you! Click on the link in the first sentence to get directions from the Comfort Suites.
