From picking flowers to devising seating charts, wedding planning is all about the details. Transportation is a larger issue that also requires thorough planning. Even if you arrange for a limo to carry the bride and groom, your wedding party and guests also require transportation services. Here’s what to know to ensure everyone arrives at the festivities on time and safely.

What to Avoid When Planning Wedding Transportation

1. Only Planning for the Ceremony

People are often focused on the ceremony and reception. However, you must also schedule transportation services for additional events, especially if you and your guests plan to drink.

For example, you might have rehearsal dinners and bachelorette parties. The vehicle should also be able to accommodate gifts, centerpieces, and other decor you take to and from the venues.

2. Leaving Guests on Their Own

Although some guests may use their own vehicles, there might be people visiting from out of town who need shuttles from hotels to events.

Group transportation also helps if the venue is in a location with limited parking. A charter bus ensures no one is left scrambling for a parking spot. 

3. Not Accounting for Potential Delays

Hiccups can pose problems if you’re short on time. When scheduling pickups, pad the schedule to allow for unexpected delays due to traffic and road construction.

To ensure everything goes smoothly, provide the bus service with a detailed guest list, addresses to pickup and drop-off points, and contact numbers for coordinators.
