Getting your wedding guests safely from point A to point B requires careful planning and potentially significant budget allocation. Transportation options can run thousands of dollars, yet many couples underestimate this expense until it's too late.

• Wedding shuttles cost approximately $375/hour with $800-1000 minimums for one-way trips
• Transportation planning should begin when selecting your venue location
• Consider scheduling two shuttle departures—one early option and one for late-night partiers
• Uber vouchers provide a flexible alternative to traditional shuttles
• Adult guests should take responsibility for their transportation, but hosts often feel obligated to provide options
• Limousines work well for smaller groups like bridal parties or immediate family
• Always verify the quality of "complimentary" hotel shuttles before relying on them
• Transportation logistics become significantly more complicated when guests have been drinking
• Having guests contribute financially to transportation can create day-of complications
