I need to attend a wedding in somerset county. What’s the best way to get there from manhattan? Gmaps shows it taking 2 hours with several trains and finally a cab ride. Is there a quicker way to get there? The wedding starts at 9am!

Agreed. And if the wedding starts at 9 am, I’d just get a hotel for the night before.

Honestly it's expensive but an Uber is your best bet. Public transport is pretty slow especially on the weekends.

Depends where in Somerset county. Parts of it are pretty rural and remote. May just be worth it to pay for a Lyft/Uber out there
