Weddings attract lots of people. As an expression of gratitude for the guests to take time out of their lives to attend the wedding, they are given a royal treatment. Because of ever increasing busy schedules of people these days and the hassles of transport, attending a wedding becomes cumbersome for many.

It is indeed thoughtful, if the guests get a ride to the wedding venue in comfort and do not feel marooned in an unknown locality? Wedding venues are usually either in remote locations or in an extremely crowded locale.

Wedding transportation, if arranged, would pick the guests up from either their hotels, home, workplace or an assigned meeting point and drop them off at the wedding. After the ceremony is over, they would be dropped off to either hotel, home or a spot from where they can go anywhere they want with ease.

Here are a few ideas on what hiring a wedding transportation and help to let you estimate approximately how much it would cost.

  • Car
  • Luxurious and private, cars can be an extremely expensive wedding transport choice, if you’re planning a low-budget or an average-budget wedding. Even if you hire not so classy cars, it would burn a hole through your pocket, unless money isn’t a concern for you.

    With base fares, hourly charges, fuel charges, mileage costs, driver charges and several other costs, the hire pricing for several cars for would be quite high. Considering that weddings have several other pricey affairs, cars should be avoided unless it is for V. I. P. Guests.

  • Horse-Drawn Carriages
  • Even though it’s dreamy and unorthodox, horse-drawn carriages are impractical. Keeping aside the fact that they’re unhygienic, slow and space consuming, they too are costly means of transport. You’ll be charged exorbitantly for horse fodder, decoration, seating and many other added costs. If budget is a limiting factor for you, it is best to opt out of this impracticality.

  • Hotel Shuttle
  • In case you’re doing a wedding where most of your guests are residing in hotel rooms that you’ve provided for, you can choose to have hotel shuttle services, but only to nearby venues. Even though it’s convenient, you’ll have to pay for the extra shuttle services based on the number of shuttles done.

  • Bus
  • Bus is the most cost-effective and budget-friendly wedding transport! With minimum carrying passenger capacity as 20 and maximum being 60, that too with great comfort, bus hire for a wedding is definitely the most practical wedding transport. Even with all included costs, bases fares, hourly charges, decor charges and other charges, luxury buses are optimum for low-budget and average-budget weddings. Since a large group of guests can get inside the bus, they would already be in jovial and party mood for the social event especially if you employ means of entertainment during their ride. So, with respect to both budget and merriment, hiring luxury buses as wedding transport is a win-win.
