Hi all, Could you help me with this please?
As mentioned in the title we are getting married in the same venue as the wedding breakfast and evening reception. The ceremony is not until 2.30pm so once the guests are there they do not have to worry about getting from one place to another, this was one of the things that we liked about having our wedding at this venue, they have lovely gardens too so there’s not even any need to go anywhere else for photos ? I thought that it would just make it easier all round.
This venue is not as local as what some of our guests are used to, but it is still within a 10 mile radius for all guests invited, so pretty close I thought, so we made the final decision and paid the deposit.
I thought that these days most of us have cars and as most people like to have a drink or two they get taxis regardless of where they are going anyway, and its not like we are expecting people to travel miles from one venue to another and then on to a third for the reception, so I didn’t even think that we needed to worry about transport.
Problem is a family member of mine said that as the venue is not on our doorstep we should be putting on transport for all the guests, and I'm worrying now that we should be hiring coaches ?. I wouldn’t mind but we are on a tight budget and cheapest quote is £350 ☹️.
So after a bit of a stressed rant the question is, do you think we should be laying on the transport?
Any advice and opinions will be greatly appreciated TIA
