Question

I'm flying into Toronto, Pearson Int'l, Port Perry is still a good distance away. What should I do?

Answer

First, congratulations on landing safely! Second, the choice is yours. Taking a Lyft/Uber from Toronto to Port Perry is an option albeit the most expensive if you'd like to use it though take a look here: https://www.flyontario.com/parking-transports/lyft-uber Once in Port Perry please note that Uber is available in Port Perry. Lyft (while it may drive you to Port Perry from the airport) is not available in Port Perry. We highly recommend renting your own vehicle once at Toronto airport.

Question

I'm going to the wedding, where do I stay?

Answer

There are a plethora of options. Two of which are hotel blocks that the couple has codes for discounts. Please check out the Travel tab for more information about this. We wouldn't recommend staying in Toronto the night of the wedding, as that would mean over an hour drive to and from the wedding venue without traffic, with traffic this can take up to two hours. Be mindful of distance, Canada is big and we don't want you to be lost in a land of kindness and maple syrup.

Canada is crazy, what will the weather be like?

Answer
