Lyft Passes: We can’t wait to celebrate with you! To make sure everyone gets home safely, and for those who don’t want to think about parking, we will be providing Lyft Passes to help cover transportation to and from the wedding. • Lyft Pass will provide $30 towards your travel • The pass will be valid from 1 p.m. 5/2 - 2:30 a.m. 5/3 • The pass will be valid when drop-off OR pickup location is within 0.5miles of the venue (and some nearby after party bars!) Instructions: • On Lyft App go to “payment”, scroll to “Lyft Pass”, tap “Add Lyft Pass”, then enter code: BARIANDGRIFFIN • The pass will automatically be applied to the cost of rides within the specified time frame and geographic parameters above, as long as a balance remains • One pass can be used for multiple rides, provided balance remains • Only one pass can be used per ride (i.e. cannot combine passes with fellow riders) • Another valid payment method should be in place on your app in case costs exceed the pass amount, and for tips. Unfortunately, there is no mechanism to use a pass for tips.
