TRANSPORATION
LIMO OR PARTY BUS?
When making plans for wedding transportation, you will want to consider all the different
places people will be moving between. Will you need to move people from the getting ready
location to the ceremony and then to the reception? Who will you be providing transportation
for?
You will want to make sure your important guests, such as parents, grandparents and the
wedding party, have a way to get around. You don’t necessarily have to rent a limo to for them
to ride in, but make sure there is a plan to get them from one place to another. Hiring
professional transportation is one way to ease the stress of coordinating rides or worrying
about designated drivers. If parking is going to be an issue at your wedding venue, consider
renting a party bus to move guests.
Most planning checklists recommend booking your transportation at least four months in
advance. However, if you’re getting married during prom and graduation season, you will want
to book your transportation even earlier due to demand.
As with all vendors you’re hiring for your wedding, be sure to get all of the details in writing
from your transportation company. You will want to confirm that the company is licensed and
insured. This means the drivers have received the proper training and the vehicles meet all the
legal requirements for operation.
