“Weddings in India are typically an elaborate affair, often spanning month long planning and week long celebrations involving family and friends.

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.”  Prabhjeet Singh, General Manager Delhi & NCR, Uber India said.

For UberWEDDINGS, Uber is partnering with WedMeGood, a wedding planning website, where it will go live with various wedding-themed on-demands available across 12-cities, for eg: bachelor/bachelorette parties hosted by, dinners and other wedding-related celebrations.
