Awarded Best of Zola
We booked transportation through CharterUP for our wedding and unfortunately the shuttle left about 15 minutes earlier than the scheduled 11:30 PM departure. As a result several guests including myself as the bride were left behind at the end of the night. After I left my review a manager reached out to reopen my case. They were very professional and understanding and worked with me to resolve the issue, which I appreciated. I am amending my original review to 4 stars based on their compassion and understanding. I would recommend that anyone booking confirm that drivers strictly follow the scheduled pickup times.

It made the whole experience feel really nostalgic and meaningful.

I’ll be honest: when my fiancé suggested using an AI texting assistant for our wedding, I rolled my eyes. I pictured something clunky or robotic. But Festa turned out to be a genuinely helpful tool. Guests could text questions and get instant, accurate answers — no one had to call us or bug our planner about shuttle times or dress code. When we ran into a small issue setting it up, the founders responded quickly and kindly (yes, real humans!). They’re clearly trying to build something thoughtful, not just flashy tech for tech’s sake. Would use it again in a heartbeat.
