So we are getting married at 7pm at Crest Hollow CC. Our guests are staying at the Four Points Sheraton in Plainview. Our Reception ends at 12:45pm. We get the hotel shuttle for 4 hours and can break it up however we want. The hotel suggested 6-8, and 12-2. Opinions Please im not sure I like the suggested break up.

It's a tough call. Is the drive long from the hotel to the venue? I would suggest since you are getting marries at 7, you would want your guests at the venue by 7 the latest. See if you can bump up the first 2 hours. For the return trip, do you have any relatives that may need to go back early and would actually need an earlier shuttle? I know it's all so confusing.
If we get 10 rooms we get a shuttle making 2 trips in each direction. For some reason, even though the hotel is only 4 miles away, it seems to take forever to get there. Our ceremony starts at 3pm and reception ends at 9. So we really had no choice but to have 2, 2:30 drop off and 9 and 9:30 pick up.

I agree with above, I sugest two trips there one at 6, one at 6:30 (Maybe this will be 1 1/2 hours) so either way guests get there on time, and then maybe 3 trips home in case anyone needs to leave early, or had children. Mabye an 11:30pm, a 12am and a 1am (2 1/2 hours)
