My fiancé and I live in Ann Arbor but we are thinking about having our wedding in Petoskey since it is where we first met. The only issue is, I am originally from Florida and will be having a lot of guests flying in, but it looks like the closest airport is in Traverse City, about an hour away (and is pretty expensive). Does anyone have experience with planning a wedding in a less-accessible location and/or know the area and the best way to advise people to get there? I love the area but I'm worried about a lot of guests declining because the trip is too much for them.
I've thought about possibly renting a bus from Ann Arbor so people could fly into Detroit, but no idea how much that would cost or if I'm just overcomplicating things.
