Ok so I did a hotel block for the wedding and in the invitation I said that a shuttle service would be provided to and from the reception. I already had a limo set up to take us and the bridal party/our immediate families back to the hotel. Fast forward to now where only 7 rooms are reserved in our block 1 room of which is for FH's aunt and uncle who are the only people not in the bridal party staying at the hotel. So I have two options of covering these 2 people with a shuttle service in both options I am just going to include them in the limo we already booked to take the bridal party back to the hotel.
Option #1 pay $120 for extra time on the bridal party limo bus to go to the hotel after we are dropped off at the rh. (So 2 people on a 25 passenger bus)
Option #2 call the hotel and ask for the name and number of a local taxi service and find out the amount for the fare. We would then give FH's aunt and uncle the taxi company info and the money for the fare and a tip.
I don't want to be tacky or cheap but I can't seem to rationalize spending $120 for two people to take a 7 minute car ride.
So is it tacky to give them the cab fare??????

I'd suggest arranging for a car service for them. That's probably the easiest and I'm sure they would appreciate it.

This! Get some prices. I'm sure they will be able to work with you. Good luck

I don't think it's tacky at all.

You might also consider option 3 -- see if you have any friends/family who would be willing to pick them up and drop them off from the hotel. Presumably you'll have plenty of other guests driving, and 7 minutes isn't so far out of the way.
This!!!

I would arrange for cab fare but make sure that it is paid for up front so you don't have to actually give your uncle and aunt any money

First check and see if they were planning on using it. Some of my family aren't big drinkers and so they're intending to use the shuttle I'm setting up.
