Hi - Is anyone providing shuttle services for guests to & from a local hotel?? I am concerned about people not having a good time if they need to be a designated driver. Also thought it would be convenient for out of town guests. But, it's a pain to organize (coordinating pickup from hotel, to church, to reception and back). The hotel where I have blocked off rooms does not offer free shuttle service. Just curious who is doing this and who is not bothering. Thanks

Yes, we got a bus. $800 for a 55 passenger bus. They will take the guests from the hotel to the reception and back. I think it is worth it. This way my guests can enjoy themselves at my reception and I don't have to worry about anyone driving after drinking. That is JMO.

we're probably going to do it. most of my bridal party and a lot of family & friends are from out of town. our reception hall is about 1/2 hour from the hotel & church, and we want everyone to be able to relax and enjoy the wedding. i don't want to worry about someone having too much to drink and have to drive back to the hotel and get a $300 ticket, or worse yet, get in an accident, so to us, we can justify the expense. we haven't booked it yet, but we have a quote of about $840 for a 25-30 person shuttle (forget the particulars, i'd have to look it up)

The hotel that I have rooms blocked with offers a free shuttle to all guests. Thank God. FH's family and friends are heavy drinkers. This makes me feel alot better!!

My hall coordinates with the Windgate Hotel in Garden City...FREE shuttle service if you book yor rooms there. We are going to take advantage of that, defintiely! Since there are so many halls in the Garden City, Westbury, etc. vicinity perhaps the Wingate does that for other halls???
