[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am in the midst of planning a summer wedding. Our ceremony and reception are at different venues but the two are a ten minute walk from each other (five minute drive) and both in downtown DC. My usual instinct is that when a wedding has two venues, it's incumbent upon the hosts to provide transportation but I'm not sure if that's true here.
Would it be unreasonable to ask guests to walk from one venue to the next? Or otherwise make their own way? 
I have not made my mind up either way so would love advice on balance cost (of transportation) and etiquette. [/quote]

We had a situation like this with a college graduation.  The Dad of the graduate provided transportation for seniors citizens. Everyone else walked
the 10 minute walk from the graduation venue to the restaurant for post graduation dinner.[/quote]

What about non-seniors that may have medical issues that limit their ability to walk distances?  Not everyone wants to have to share their heart issues or joint surgeries. [/quote]
