We are down to 4 venues and OMG is this ever STRESSFUL!!!
Anyway, need some opinions ...
Almost all of my fiance's side of the guest list will be coming from other countries. They will probably arrive early in the week and stay at a hotel around the corner from us in central Jersey. Our venue options are all about 30 minutes from where we live and all offer hotel blocks with shuttle. But my fiance thinks it is asking too much for everyone to switch hotels the day of the wedding from the one in our town to one nearer the venue and then switch back to our town the next day. He wants to explore the option of everyone just staying in the hotel near where we live and getting shuttle from the venue back to our town (aware that we would have to pay for this, it probably wouldn't be included as a free shuttle like many hotels provide to nearby venues).
I think this makes sense, to an extent, for his side of the guest list, but not for mine, who will be coming from PA and other areas of NJ - who wants to sit on a bus for 30 minutes at midnight when they could be on the bus for 5 minutes down the road?
Opinions? Solutions? TIA
