The Seattle wedding map has four clusters and each one has a transport catch. Woodinville, with its wineries and tasting room districts, is 25 minutes from Bellevue but the last stretch down the Sammamish Valley is dark and narrow after dinner. Snoqualmie Falls and the Salish Lodge area sit 30 miles east on I-90, straightforward in summer and a traction requirement in winter. Bainbridge Island and the Kitsap side mean a Washington State Ferries crossing, which charges oversize vehicles by length and does not take vehicle reservations on the Seattle to Bainbridge or Edmonds to Kingston runs, so the schedule is built around sailings with real slack. And Leavenworth or Suncadia over Snoqualmie Pass turns a shuttle into a day trip.
The shuttle itself is simple once the venue is known. A coach does the guest loop from the downtown or Eastside hotel block, a minibus does the wedding party and the tight venue driveways that a 45 foot vehicle cannot enter, and the last run of the night is the one everyone remembers. Plan the return in two waves, one for the early leavers and one at the end, rather than making 120 people wait for the last dance. Pricing is flat and all-in with driver, fuel, standard mileage and tolls included, a 25 percent deposit holds the vehicle, and there is no separate gratuity line.

A coach loops from Bellevue or Kirkland hotels out to the tasting room districts, with a second late run at the end of the night. Winery driveways vary a lot in what they can receive, so the vehicle is matched to the actual property, not to the guest count alone.
Guests load downtown, cross on the Seattle to Bainbridge sailing, and the coach meets them or rides with them depending on the venue. Oversize vehicles pay by length and cannot reserve space on that run, so the plan targets an earlier sailing than the one you need.
A 30 mile run east on I-90 to the falls and the surrounding venues, easy from May to October. November through March the pass corridor can carry traction requirements, so winter dates go to operators with chain-equipped vehicles.

Most shuttles are billed hourly with a 5 hour minimum for coaches and minibuses: $175 to $260 an hour for a full-size coach, $140 to $205 for a minibus, and $120 to $180 for a sprinter van on a 4 hour minimum. A typical two-run evening lands in the 5 to 7 hour range.
Not always, and it is worth checking early. Many Woodinville, island and foothill properties cannot take a 45 foot coach on the access road, in which case the coach serves a valid staging point and a minibus or van does the last stretch. Send the venue name with the request.
Washington State Ferries charges oversize vehicles by length and the Seattle to Bainbridge and Edmonds to Kingston routes do not take vehicle reservations, so the itinerary aims a sailing or two earlier than the strict minimum. Summer weekends have real waits and the plan should assume one.
Two waves, almost always. One departure around 9:30 and one at the end keeps the older guests and the families from waiting three hours, and it usually costs less than adding a second vehicle for the whole evening.
Six to eight weeks for a summer Saturday, which in this market competes directly with cruise turn days for the same vehicles. September and October dates are nearly as tight; winter and early spring are comfortable at three to four weeks.
