Tips before you book
- Book 6–12 months ahead for May–October Saturdays.
- Send the company the exact hotel and venue addresses and check that a full-size bus can reach and turn at the venue.
- Plan loops: one bus running a 20-minute loop can move many more guests than one trip.
- Ask if the driver tip is included and what happens if the reception runs late.

Frequently asked questions
How many wedding shuttles do I need?
Count guests who need a ride (often half to two-thirds of guests staying at hotels) and divide by the seats per vehicle. Our “how many buses do I need?” tool does the math.
Limo or shuttle bus for a wedding?
Limos suit the wedding party (photos, arrival). Shuttle buses suit guests because they carry more people for less money per person.
