No Wedding Transportation?

We're debating this! Still unsure on what the day of is going to look like, so we're up in the air about this for now.

We did forgone the transportation due to unneeded expenses. Plus family was driving from the states and montreal. Our venue wad one place with activities set for everyone to enjoy.

My fiancé has a really nice car and I kinda want it to be our getaway car from the ceremony!! Or maybe borrow my mom's mustang ahhah!!
I thinking fine! Maybe ask some family members with larger vehicles to be chauffeurs for the day I'm sure they'd be happy to help!

View quoted message Good idea to put the info in the welcome bags, never would’ve thought of that!

View quoted message I like the cab idea so there’s no drinking and driving! I’ll definitely add it to my details card and website!

View quoted message Good advice! My main issue with wanting some sort of transportation was to get the wedding party from the ceremony to the reception, but I figured if we took a limo, no one would have their cars at the hotel the next morning so what then? But thank you for the advice, much appreciated! I figure everyone is fine to drive themselves, it will be a way to relax and take time for themselves (and our selves too!) to just chill

I think that it's quite common not to provide any transportation if your bridal party is very small and have access to their own vehicles.

If you decide to build transportation into your budget, I would suggest renting a luxury vehicle from any car rental company. That option is far more cost effective than a limousine.

We have rented an SUV from the limousine company which we were going to use for our stretch limo. In the end, we decided that it didn't make sense to rent a limo for such a small wedding. We are having only one attendant each.

For the wedding we are looking into getting a bus or two that will have one meet up point in the city since our wedding is taking place 45 minutes outside the perimeter of Winnipeg. On top of that Winnipeg doesn't have Uber and taxi's are way too expensive for that long of a ride. But even with this option we will only make it available for people if they pay for their seat $10ish - but we have an open bar to make up for it

We are not providing transportation. The ceremony and reception are at the same location and alot of the guests are from out of town so will be staying at the hotel.
I have never been to a wedding that has offered transportation at the end of the night. I have always found my way home safely and never expected my end of night transportation to be provided.

We won't be having any wedding transportation either. Are ceremony and reception are at the same location, and there are rooms at the venue for the wedding party to get ready in. Everyone in are party is aware and most likely will cab, we gave out taxi information on our details card, or they will drive home (if they are not drinking).

I have been a part of a couple of weddings where they didn't provide transportation. On the way home at night that doesn't bother me. take a taxi or an uber.

but if your wedding party is getting ready somewhere other than the venue. then you should figure out/provide transportation logistics for them. even if all it is, is a family member that transports them or you rent a van or something. in my head its the right/proper thing to do.

and just help them have their car at the hotel or the venue if they aren't drinkers. for example. one wedding I was in. the night before the wedding we all stayed at the brides house. the next morning we drove and parked my car at the hotel. another bridesmaid picked me up and we all went to the venue together (that bridesmaid lived in the city so she was just going to take a taxi home and get her car the next day). for me it was great to wake up in the AM and not worry about getting to my car.

We are not booking any transportation. We do have guests flying in but a lot will also be driving in from out of town. The church is just down the road from the hotel where we are having the reception and are staying. We will probably have the DJ or mc remind people to call a cab and give out the number if they are not staying there.
The bridal party is just me and 2 girls so we will just have someone drive us over (the guys are getting ready at the church). My fiancé is going to borrow one of his uncles antique cars for us to take a little drive right after the ceremony and have a few minutes alone but other than that we didn't see a need for booking transportation.

We aren’t doing anything fancy, we saw it as a good way to save money. We are going to go back to the hotel (less than 10 minutes away) with someone who doesn’t drink, and then we are giving out information about local taxi services in the welcome bags, and on our wedding website.

We didn't have any transportation for us for our wedding as we were staying on site. We just walked around the house to our ceremony spot and then to the reception. If it is not in your budget then don't force it.

We were GOING to drive ourselves, but a family friend who lives nearby to our ceremony and reception sites has graciously offered to drive us...in their beautiful Mustang convertible! The wedding party will have to fend for themselves, but that was the plan all along anyway.

We're not booking transportation either. Haven't quite figured out how everyone will be leaving the reception. But most of our wedding party (our cousins) have parents that will hopefully take them home afterward.

As for us, we're driving ourselves home after the reception. I don't drink so I will be my own DD. My FH is being picked up by one of his groomsmen prior to the ceremony and I'm diving myself (i'll be staying at my parents the night before). And since getting ready, reception, photos and ceremony are in the same place - we saw absolutely no need to rent transportation.

We'll be going this route, our wedding parties are small enough that we can ride around in our own vehicles. Some will be from out of town and will be staying at the venue (both Ceremony and Reception are at a hotel). We're doing photos at the venue too so it made no sense to book something for us.

My fiancé and I are likely going this route!

Our ceremony and reception are in the same place, and we don't have a wedding party.

We’re going this route! We only have 6 people in our wedding party, so it’s only two vehicles. Plus, ceremony and reception are in the same place so it just didn’t seem to make sense to rent anything to take us to photos.

View quoted message That’s a good idea! Our reception venue has a hotel attached, so we are hoping if people planning on drinking they will stay there and not drink and drive! Are you and your FH diving together to your reception, and how do you plan on getting to your ceremony, if you don’t mind my asking?

I'm worrying about this too. We are definitely not getting a limo, but we haven't decided what we're doing for ourselves yet.My FH wants to drive us back to our hotel after the reception, but I'd rather him just drink and enjoy himself. No on wants to be DD at their own wedding.

I think for everyone else we'll call a cab company a couple weeks before and have cabs ready for people who need them. That way, we know our loved ones are being safe, while still saving money!
