How do shuttle services work?

Madalyn, on April 19, 2023 at 11:35 AM Posted in Planning 0 6
Hi! I’m looking into getting a shuttle service for our reception to avoid people drinking & driving. My question is, how does it work? Does the shuttle take people from the hotel to the reception & back to the hotel? If not, how does the service help people to get back to their cars? Any & all advice is much appreciated!

    Depends on who are what you book. Typically a school bus is cheaper and will shuttle guests to and from hotel/venue.


    My plan is to have a little timeline/transportation schedule put up on the shuttle and the website.

    Yes, shuttle services typically transport from hotel to wedding location, then back to the hotel. They usually charge per hour or per time block.

    Three round trips would be ideal that way you have one shuttle taking people to the venue and two staggered leaving the venue (an earlier one for guests who don't want to stay until the end.) Typically they pick up/drop off from whatever hotel the majority of guests are staying at.

    Oh, that’s very different from how shuttles in our area work. Here, we just pay for the amount of hours we would like the shuttle to run, and they make as many trips as needed during that alotted time.

    I love the shuttle idea! I think three round trips would probably work, depending on the size of your crowd.
