YOU HAVE ARRIVED
Wedding Day Transportation
Your search for transportation starts once you decide how many people you’ll be moving. Do you want just the bride and the groom in a vehicle, or is the entire wedding party heading to the reception together? If the whole party is going, do you want to include their spouses or dates? What about each couple’s parents? Due to safety and convenience concerns, it’s becoming more common for buses and trolleys to be used shuttling guests to and from wedding events.
Once you make those decisions, you can start searching for transport based on size. Then, you can pick out a limousine, a coach party bus, a trolley, or something more unique and personal. Whatever you decide on, keep safety in mind while revelers are bouncing from place to place.
Catch the Coach – For larger wedding parties or for those that want a little extra elbow room, a party bus or a luxury coach is a great way to travel from the ceremony to the reception. These boast all the amenities and style of a luxury limousine, but with more room to spare; they seat up to 10 people very comfortably. For even bigger parties, a passenger coach or a party bus can seat anywhere from 21 to 49 people.
Take the Trolley – A trolley is a fun and photoready option. Trolleys generally can accommodate between 20 and 35 people. With their old-world charm, they’ll lend a timeless touch to this wedding day detail. Limo Life – If there is a day to splurge on this iconic luxury vehicle, your wedding is certainly the day. A formal limousine seats four people. Or, if you’d like to include the wedding party, stretch limos can allow for six to 10. For larger parties, sport utility models like the

Hummer and Explorer are popular and unique both inside and out. The larger models are often posh, with flashy lights and decorative interiors.
Unique Ideas
Limos, party buses and trolleys are fabulous, traditional options, but some couples might opt for something more personal or creative. A horsedrawn carriage or vintage car offer timeless class and romance — and a unique photo op!
Or, as with everything else in the wedding, transportation could be an opportunity to add a truly personal touch. Maybe you met at a Harley rally — rev up your twin Hogs! Perhaps you’re both avid golfers — drive off in a golf cart! Or maybe you share a love of biking — wheel over on a tandem. If it’s possible to reflect your own personality in your wedding transportation, go for it!
Down To Details
Confirm transportation booking and verify pickup and departure times well in advance of your wedding dates. In a written contract, look for things like: Name & contact information for you and the company, the date/time and address for all pickup and drop-off locations, the type and number of vehicles and any amenities, hours of rental, total cost including gas, mileage, tip, and overtime fees, deposit amount & cancellation policy.
