Should I Tell My Chauffeur if I Think My Long Island Wedding Reception Will Run Late?
Yes, you should tell your chauffeur if you think your wedding reception will run late. This task is usually delegated to a wedding coordinator or family representative.
When you book a Long Island wedding transportation package with North Country Limousine, we will provide an overtime rate based on the vehicles you choose and the number of wedding chauffeurs you have. We understand that wedding receptions often run late, so we will automatically build a buffer into your itinerary to anticipate this and minimize overtime fees.
Let Us Know As Soon As Possible
You don’t need to stress if it’s getting into the evening and you aren’t ready to wrap things up. Let your chauffeur know, and we will adjust your schedule on the fly.
- Overtime rates are agreed during booking, so you will know exactly what the additional costs would be.
- The rest of your wedding transportation costs are fixed. We provide an itemized bill once your itinerary is finalized. The overtime rate is an additional fee to cover the vehicle and chauffeur costs, but it won’t retroactively affect the other items on your bill.
- We can help to minimize additional fees. If you think the event will run late but most of your guests will be leaving, we can run the service as normal to get as many people as possible shuttled back to their hotels or pre-designated drop-off point before the end of your scheduled booking.
- If you have multiple vehicles like a limo, bus, and van, you could end the night with just the limo running overtime (or whichever vehicle you need), which would minimize any additional cost.
