Using Uber Black from ceremony to reception, yes or no?

Macaron's, on June 24, 2019 at 2:01 PM Posted in Planning 0 8

We have a very short ride from our church to the reception. I'm wondering if anyone has used Uber Black specifically and how they felt about the arrival time. I'm worried that we'll be waiting for the car or having to ask them to wait while we get ready after pictures.

Any thoughts?

    I believe you can schedule an Uber ride up to 30 days in advance for a specific day and time. So you wouldn’t just be hoping there’s an Uber available. But Uber rides won’t wait for more than 5 minutes and if you take longer than that they’ll cancel the ride and charge you a fee.

    Oh! That's good to know you can book it ahead of time. I've only used Uber around the cities and have always been ready and waiting for them. Thank you for the info!

    I like Uber Black. They’ve never been late for me and will definitely wait (for a fee) if you are running behind. You may want to ask around for recommendations for an Uber Black driver. A lot of people have a favorite and they may even give you a better rate than ordering directly through Uber.

    That's really great to hear. I'll do some research in my area and see if anyone has recommendations. I'm sure the fee is much less than hiring a limo for a 10 minute drive from location to location.

    I plan to do this very thing... why pay someone $100’s to take me and my girls around the corner, essentially.

    This is how my FH and groomsmen are getting to the ceremony. Especially after looking at insane shuttle prices, it definitely makes the most sense. I have also scheduled ubers at very odd times (like 3 AM to go to the airport) and its been super dependable.

    Hi Tracee,


    Congrats on the recent wedding! I wanted to ask you if you did end up using the Uber Black and how it went?
