If you’ll only be in town for the weekend’s wedding events, you really won’t need a vehicle. All of the venues are conveniently located downtown along the Riverwalk. The three hotels are within walking distance to the ceremony and reception venues, and if you’re staying at a different location downtown, you would be no farther than a quick cab ride away. Most hotels have free shuttle service from San Antonio International Airport, or a cab downtown is about $25.
If you’re planning to arrive early or stay a bit longer, it would be worth renting a car to travel out into the Hill Country, make a day trip to Austin, or conduct some serious BBQ research. We would be happy to provide suggested itineraries if needed, but BBQ not to be missed is as follows:
San Antonio — Rudy’s
Austin — Franklin BBQ or The Salt Lick
Lockhart (BBQ Capital of TX) — Black’s BBQ or Kreuz Market
