Flying into Nashville (BNA)

Nashville International Airport · ~95 miles / 1 hr 35 min to venue

• BNA is the closest major airport and has the best flight selection from most U.S. cities.
• Plan to rent a car — there is no practical rideshare, shuttle, or transit option for the full drive to Princeton. All major rental agencies are on-site at BNA.
• Route: Leave BNA on Donelson Pike → I-40 W briefly → merge onto I-24 W toward Clarksville/Paducah → cross into Kentucky → take Exit 27 (US-62 / Princeton/Eddyville) → head east on US-62/Cadiz Rd toward the venue.
• Driving directions: BNA → Venue Breezy

Driving from Champaign, IL

~290 miles / 4 hr 45 min to venue

• Route: I-57 South from Champaign all the way to Marion, IL → merge onto I-24 East toward Paducah/Nashville → cross the Ohio River into Kentucky → take Exit 27 (US-62 / Princeton/Eddyville) → head east on US-62/Cadiz Rd.
• Mostly interstate the whole way. Good stops for gas/food: Effingham IL, Marion IL (just before the I-24 split), and Paducah KY.
• Note the time zone change — Champaign is on Central Time and Princeton is also on Central Time, so no clock change. (Nashville is also Central.)
• Driving directions: Champaign → Venue Breezy

Same-Day Travel Tips

• Wedding ceremony time is still TBD — we’ll lock it in here once confirmed. Plan around an afternoon/evening ceremony.
• From Nashville BNA: aim to land at least 4 hours before the ceremony to cover the ~1 hr 35 min drive, rental car pickup, checking in/changing, and any traffic.
• From Champaign, IL: a same-day drive is doable but tight (5 hours door-to-door without stops). Leave a healthy buffer for gas, meals, and changing clothes — you may want to book a daytime hotel room nearby just to freshen up.
• Don’t plan to head straight back the same night if you’ve been on the road all day. We’d love for you to stay.
