    Splurge. Since FH and I live out of state, and the ceremony is 35 mins from the reception, we're paying over $900 to transport ourselves as well as all our out-of-town guests. But I feel like its necessary to ensure everyone makes it on time and will be less stressful in the long run.

    This is actually really helpful!! thank you! I've never heard of this before -- but would be super helpful considering I know quite a few guests aren't even using the hotel or cabin block i set up. (air bnbs instead) so this would definitely work! Thanks again!

    Save. Our ceremony and reception are at the same venue. My fiancé also has a project car that he's extremely proud of and has put a ton of work into, so we'll probably drive away in that to make him happy haha.

    Save. Wedding and Reception is at the same venue. I thought about a classy send off vehicle but it would be pointless because we both have nice vehicles and it would only be used less than 30 minutes. The venue is not too far from the hotel soooo.....Definitely Save.

    Save. Thinking about maybe getting a limo for the bridal party, but other than that guests are on their own. I would love to be able to provide transportation for everyone, but it was not in our budget.

    I think we are going to save. I just can’t think of something we would want to ride in.

    Save, we are not providing this since the ceremony and reception are at the same location. We may get a getaway car but my Dad has a Vet and some friends have classic cars

    We decided on a modern rolls royce, 10 days before our wedding! It was something I went back and forth with, most required a 3-4 hour minimum but I shopped around and found one that starts with 2 hours of service, $300/hr. I finally decided, there's still budget money left so why not? It'll look great in photos, and it will transport us from the hotel where we're all getting ready to places around downtown chicago on the magnificent mile and millenium park. We didn't need to arrange group transportation since we're not having a bridal party, and the hotel where everyone is getting ready will be where the wedding ceremony and reception will be as well.
