Chosson & Kallah Shomer Travel
Shomer / Shomeres Travel, with dignity.
When the week before the chasunah should not be traveled alone, we provide a vetted, heimishe companion so the chosson or kallah is never left alone on the road or in the airport.
What's included.
- Home, yeshiva, or seminary pickup
- Airport check-in, security, and boarding assistance
- A seat beside the traveler with respectful company
- Same-gender accompaniment when requested
- Real-time updates to parents or family at every stage
- Sensitivity to davening, kosher meals, and chasunah-week pressure
- Handover to family or hotel contact at destination
- Available during Sheva Brachos week as well
How the journey works.
1. Planning call
We learn the wedding date, route, family minhag, and whether a same-gender companion is preferred, then match a vetted shomer or shomeres.
2. Door-to-door escort
The companion arrives at the pickup point, handles bags and check-in, and stays beside the chosson or kallah through every airport step.
3. Respectful company
The companion provides quiet, dignified presence on the flight, with sensitivity to davening, meals, and the unique week before the chasunah.
4. Updates and handover
Parents or the family arranging travel receive updates at pickup, check-in, boarding, landing, and final handover.

Questions families ask us.
What is a shomer or shomeres for travel?
A shomer (for a chosson) or shomeres (for a kallah) is a trusted companion who travels with the bride or groom so they are not alone on the road or in the airport in the days leading up to the chasunah. The companion stays with them from pickup through to handover at the destination.
How close to the wedding do families typically arrange this?
It varies by family minhag. Some arrange accompaniment from the week before the chasunah, others from the Shabbos before, and others from the moment the chosson or kallah arrives in the city of the wedding. We plan around the wedding date and the family's custom.
Can we request a companion of the same gender?
Yes. We provide same-gender accompaniment whenever requested, with vetted, heimishe companions who understand the sensitivity of the occasion.
Which routes do you cover for chosson and kallah travel?
We most often fly between New York, Toronto, London, and Eretz Yisroel — the same core routes where families frequently need a companion because relatives cannot travel on the same flight.
Do you also provide companions during Sheva Brachos week?
Yes. Many families keep the same practice during Sheva Brachos week, and we can arrange a shomer or shomeres for travel during that time as well.
What does the companion actually do at the airport?
The companion handles home, yeshiva, or seminary pickup, airport check-in, security, boarding, connections, and sits beside the traveler. The family receives real-time updates at each milestone.
How much does shomer or shomeres travel cost?
Rates begin from our standard companion pricing and depend on the route, timing, and level of care required. Because these requests are often urgent, we respond quickly with a firm quote.
