Getting There
To Carlsbad
For our out-of-town guests, we highly recommend flying into San Diego International Airport. From there, you can take a rental car, Uber, Lyft, or another private transportation option 35 minutes north.
​
Your alternative airport option will be John Wayne Airport in Orange County. Carlsbad is a little less than an hour from that airport.
To The Venue
​The venue for the ceremony and reception is. Jeune Perche Estate, 5910 Cam Baja Cerro, Fallbrook, CA 92028.
​
There is limited parking available at the venue, so alternate transportation is highly encouraged.
We will clarify a shuttle option closer to the date, most likely from Cape Rey Carlsbad, a Hilton Resort and Spa, and/or Hilton Garden Inn Carlsbad Beach.
Uber and Lyft are available in the area, and we will also suggest a recommendation for private transportation service if preferred.
Where to Stay
There are many options for places you can stay in the Encinitas, Leucadia, and Carlsbad area, but we have a few we specifically recommend.

AIRBNB
Encinitas
A lively surf town, Encinitas is what drew us to San Diego in the first place. With a main street packed with restaurants, boutiques, and more, there's always something to do here. Stays in Encinitas will be furthest from the venue and shuttle.
