Question

What is the best way to get to the ceremony?

Answer

We are chartering buses to the ceremony from downtown Madrid (exact pickup/drop-off locations TBD). Since our venue is outside the city, Ubers and ride shares are not as reliable. Buses will also take everyone back to Madrid after the reception. The return shuttles are scheduled for 2am and 4am - be prepared to party all night! If you don't wish to use our provided transportation, you can schedule a private car service that will pick you up but that will need to be reserved in advance; ride shares like Uber may not pick up that far outside of the city. There is also plenty of parking at the venue if anyone is driving.
