Hi all,
I am getting married on Feb 2012. A few of my relatives( 10) from abroad will be attending my wedding here in Pennsylvania and they'll be staying with us for approx. 2 weeks. I live in a 1 br apartment and I cannot accomodate them there so the obvious choice is a economical place like the choice hotel chain. I really need your help to get a gr8 deal with rewards and points.
I am new to points and mile and rewards CC as a whole. Me and my boyfriend applied for the 2 AA visa/amex cards as we'd b spending a lot of money on the wedding and we cud use the bonus points for our honeymoon later. The other CC we have is the chase southwest card with 50k offer. And we both have discover and chase freedom as our old cards. I read that we can convert choice hotel points to SW points but not other way round

Is there any way we can use the points from our existing cards or apply new cards to get free or cheap nights at choice hotels. I know they are already very affordable but with all the other wedding expenses we'd like to save as much as possible and besides we only need place for them to crash at night.
I am researching extensively on this too but if someone here knows a good idea we'd really appreciate the help. This would make our wedding very successful
