    Mother of the Groom

    We had a great time and I had the added security of knowing that all of the partiers were picked up and returned home safely. The vehicle was spotless and the driver was delightful, friendly and helpful with local information, we need.

    SO AMAZING AND ACCOMMODATING

    James was so amazing and was down to do whatever we needed I gave him a time frame and he was happy to take as many trips as possible wherever and whenever people needed to be somewhere! Highly highly recommend. Not only was he amazing but he was very kind and so easy to communicate with!

    2025 Wedding

    I would 100% recommend working with Ashe County Livery! They were super communicative and accommodating. When some of our guests missed the final shuttle, they swung back around to make sure they got home safely. Working with them was amazing!

    We LOVE Ashe County Livery!

    James and his team is the best wedding transportation service the high country has to offer! Their communication is top notch and their wedding day customer service is untouched. Working with Ashe Co. Livery is always a joy and we cannot recommend them enough!


Most weddings are booked 9–12 months in advance, so it's crucial to reserve your date early. We take a deposit based on a higher vehicle estimate and provide a free online sign-up sheet for your guests. Then, 45 days before your event, we confirm your final count—if fewer vehicles are needed, the difference is credited toward your final bill.
We require a 50% non-refundable deposit to reserve your date. Because vehicle and driver availability is limited—especially on peak weekends—your reservation prevents us from booking other events for the same time.
Final payment is due 7 days before your event. Once made, it is non-refundable due to the proximity of the event and our commitment of resources.
If your new date is available, we will make every effort to accommodate the change and transfer your reservation.
If you cancel more than 7 days in advance, you forfeit the 50% deposit. If you cancel within 7 days of your event, the full payment is due. We strongly recommend wedding insurance or event interruption coverage through your venue or insurance provider.
Refunds are issued if we are unable to provide service due to a failure on our part. We will always go above and beyond to cover your event. Refunds may also be considered in cases of natural disasters such as a declared flood or hurricane.
Rideshare and taxi services are extremely limited—or nonexistent—in many mountain areas. Most venues are located on winding gravel roads that are hard to navigate in the dark, especially for out-of-town guests who may be drinking. Don't let your special day turn into a tragedy—safe, reliable transportation matters.
We do not offer point-to-point transfers. All bookings on Friday and Saturday nights require a 6-hour minimum. Most venues have limited parking, so it's often best to provide round-trip shuttle service for your guests. Plus, mountain roads can be dark, winding, and unpredictable—safe, reliable transportation is a must.
Your shuttle is at your disposal from the first pickup to the final drop-off. We're happy to take early guests back to their accommodations as needed. To ensure everything runs smoothly, we typically pause mid-event shuttles by a set time so the driver can return in time for the scheduled end-of-night departures.
No, unlike some companies, gratuities are not mandatory, but they are greatly appreciated. Like in any service industry, it is customary to show appreciation for excellent service. We pride ourselves on providing exceptional service whether or not a gratuity is given. If you'd like to tip your driver but don't have cash, our drivers accept Venmo, CashApp, and Zelle
We offer a range of private vehicles—from sedans and SUVs to 14-passenger vans—suitable for groups from 1 to over 100 guests. For larger groups, we can deploy multiple vehicles simultaneously to ensure seamless transportation.
Most venues in the High Country cannot accommodate full-size buses due to narrow roads, tight turns, and limited parking. That's why we specialize in 14-passenger vans—they're the most flexible option, able to access hard-to-reach venues, pick up guests from multiple lodging locations at once, and shuttle small groups back as they're ready to leave.
