Should i be concerned about...

Original post by anjelagain

My guests traveling for about an hour to go to my wedding??

Im getting married in South Hampton and the hotels are unblockable, unless you kind of pay them up front, with no deals on price. Ive been getting annoying little comments here and there


Help!!!!!!!!!!!!

I live in babylon, most of my guests are from babylon and wantagh and huntington area,

(its 45 minute ride from babylon w/ no traffic)

my wedding is on a saturday, from 4pm-10pm

an hour isnt bad, i think its normal me and my family live in brooklyn and i think everyone gets married in l.i. so it just seems normal to drive a bit.

since i have a slightly larger family if we dont plan on spending the night at a hotel we have booked a small party bus in the past for the day so no one has to worry about driving home. it was the best idea we have ever had, ends up being really affordable and just takes that bit of stress/thinking off your mind. maybe if you have enough people driving and they know each other you can bring that idea up to them

That should be fine, people expect to have to travel for a wedding.

I would only complain if I had to drive 45 mins out of my way for a ceremony...then another 45 mins to the RH. If they are only going from their homes to the RH than you're all good.

i think it's fine. My wedding about an hour drive from Queens, granted I do have a hotel block, but I;ve driven to Stony brook for weddings plenty of times from queens.

If they are important in your life, they will be there for your special day!

As my mom would say: 'Who owns the problem?' Here's a hint: not you!! If they take major issue with it, then they can choose not to come. Argh, so annoying though...it's your wedding!!

my guests are driving pretty far too (probably most an hour +)... i don't think it's a problem!
