CIOL UberWeddings to provide hassle-free wedding-related travel until Feb ’17

The big fat Indian wedding season has started and startups (as usual) are trying their best to make the most out of the season. However, we can't blame them completely. In this demonetization phase, these startups are the ones providing valuable services to iron out the painful process.

For those who are worried about how your guest will reach the wedding venue in this cash crunch quandary, don't fret. Uber has launched UberWeddings, offering several packages for users according to their needs to ease wedding-related travel.

"UberWEDDINGS provides an easy way for hosts to ensure that all wedding-related travel in the city is managed through cashless pre-generated promo codes. So whether it is about hopping between markets, finding the perfect outfit, or getting guests to the venue, Uber will make it happen in a pre-decided budget, at a push of a button. All our users need to focus on is the wedding," said Uber India's Delhi & NCR General Manager Prabhjeet Singh.

In partnership with WedMeGood, UberWeddings will provide on-demand services for various pre-wedding functions like bachelor/bachelorette parties, dinners etc. It allows users to purchase promo codes in advance to make Uber rides free for their family and guests.

The feature which is already available in Washington DC, San Francisco, New York, Boston, and LA, will be expanded to 12 cities including Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Chandigarh, Chennai, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Ludhiana, New Delhi, Pune, and Udaipur.

Based on the promo code, users will have to purchase a "specific number of Uber rides of set denominations, on a specifically dedicated page on the WedMeGood website," the company said in its release.

"The promo codes can also be customized with the host's name or their wedding hashtag which will be printed by Uber and made available within 3 working days of the purchase request," Uber India said in a press release.

The feature is available until February 2017.
