A wedding on the French Riviera: organising transport for your guests

A wedding on the French Riviera often takes place across several venues: the town hall in Nice, a ceremony in a hinterland chapel, a reception at a villa or estate between Cannes and Saint-Tropez. Guests come from afar, do not know the roads and want to enjoy the celebration without thinking about the way home. Organising their transport is a true gift. Here is how to go about it.

Listing every journey

Start by listing all the journeys of your wedding:

• Arrivals at the airport or station in the preceding days.
• From the hotels to the town hall or the ceremony.
• Transfer from the ceremony to the reception.
• End-of-evening returns, sometimes in several waves.
• Next-day brunch and departures to the airport.

This overview gives you a clear picture of your vehicle and timing needs.

The bridal car

For you, a Mercedes S-Class with chauffeur offers elegance and discretion. It lends itself to photographs and lets you arrive serenely at every stage. Discover our wedding car with chauffeur.

The guests: vans and minibuses

The Mercedes V-Class

Up to seven passengers per vehicle: ideal for close family, witnesses or older guests.

Minibuses

To move a larger group from one venue to another in one go. See our page van and minibus with chauffeur.

End-of-evening returns

This is the most delicate moment. Some guests leave early, others dance until the very end. Plan several rotations at agreed times. Hinterland roads are winding and poorly lit: a professional chauffeur guarantees everyone gets home safely.

Welcoming guests from afar

Family and friends arriving from abroad or another region? A chauffeur awaits them at Nice Côte d’Azur airport and drives them to their hotel. It is a thoughtful touch that spares you running a shuttle on the eve of the big day. See our Nice airport transfer.
