How to Get to Paducah
Paducah is located on the western edge of Kentucky, right across the Ohio River from Illinois. If you are flying in, we recommend that you fly into Nashville or St. Louis. From there you will want to rent a car and drive to Paducah (roughly 2.5 hours from each airport). There is a regional flight from Charlotte to Paducah twice per day that may be an option. If you fly into Paducah directly you will likely still need a car, Uber, Lyft and Taxis are available but quite limited.
If you are within a 6 hour radius of Paducah, driving is likely going to be your best option. Paducah is conveniently located along I-24. Parking (anywhere in Paducah) is always free (with the exception of Quilter's week in April) and is readily available. You will have no issues parking a car in downtown Paducah. Most establishments have their own parking lot and parking spaces in Kentucky are designed for large vehicles.
Where to Stay - Downtown Paducah
Our wedding is located exclusively in downtown Paducah. We recommend that you stay at a downtown hotel or air bnb to minimize driving.
Hotel space is very limited- October is a busy month in Paducah - we recommend booking a place to stay as soon as possible to ensure a space downtown.
Holiday Inn Paducah Riverfront, an IHG Hotel
The guest may also call the hotel direct at 888.465.4329 and request a room with the code KKW. Below is a link to the hotel block under Kruzel and Knight Wedding: Kruzel and Knight Wedding (our wedding code is KKW)
The 1857 Hotel
The 1857 is a boutique hotel located in Downtown Paducah with very limited rooms. William and Larissa will be staying there after the wedding and 1857 will be hosting the send off brunch from their bar.
To book a room:
(1) look at the website for room options, mostly there are king suites available.
(2) If you are interested in one of the rooms please email or text Larissa (lkruzel@gmail.com or 847-533-8065) for a room assignment within the block.
(3) Larissa will confirm which room can be assigned to you and will notify the hotel.
(4) Call the hotel to book your room.
It is hotel policy that the bride or groom assign rooms before they can be reserved.

Located just a few blocks away from our wedding locations, this B&B is a great option for a quiet stay in Paducah. Please use promo code LWWEDDING10 to book a room in our block (we have the entire B&B blocked off) and for a discount on your room cost. If you have any questions reach out to Shelly at (270) 709-2848.
Belle Louise Historic Bed & Breakfast
Please book by August 31, 2024 - on September 1 any unbooked rooms will be opened back up for general booking. To book a room in our block please call (270) 210-2553 and let them know this is for Larissa and William's wedding.
AirBnB
We highly recommend booking an AirBnb in downtown Paducah. There are lots of options available and will reduce travel time to our wedding.
Hotels By the Mall
If you cannot get a room or AirBnB downtown Paducah, you can drive from the "mall" area (this is right off of I-24) to downtown for the ceremony and reception. It is about a 10 minute drive to downtown Paducah from this area.
If You Cannot Make it to Paducah
We understand that getting to Paducah may not be doable for all of our invitees. If you cannot come to Paducah and would still like to participate in our wedding celebration there are a couple of options to celebrate with Larissa and William.
Larissa's parents will be hosting a wedding shower at their home in Arlington Heights, IL on Saturday July 27 that anyone is welcome to attend. The shower will be a great opportunity to spend time with William and Larissa and is co-ed.
We will be providing a zoom option for the wedding ceremony. Here is the zoom link: https://polsinelli.zoom.us/j/92227305059?pwd=ZYsTnLiqXjbagMreGhXjnaY7sMcXLn.1
