    When hired to film a special event (wedding, class reunion, etc.), it’s best to get precise directions to the place(s) of the event; there may be more than one, for a wedding, for example:

    1. Studio to church
    2. Church to reception hall
    3. Reception hall to studio

    If filming at the bride’s home, make that the first stop; if filming a photo shoot somewhere near the church (or wherever the wedding takes place), have that as the second or third stop. It’s a good idea to keep these for future reference, in case you return to any of the event locations at another time; the couple may return there for an anniversary or other special event.

    In case wherever you get directions from only take you to the city center (Yahoo! Maps is notorious for this), call or e-mail for the rest.

    Good luck and happy traveling!
