Philadelphia Wedding Limos – 5 Secrets You Should Know
So when planning your Wedding Transportation, consider these 5 secrets before you book your Limo, Party Bus or Shuttle.
1. Speak to Your Venue
I know your Aunt Sally has a neighbor who has a son who owns a Limo. While we don’t want to discount that option, your Aunt Sally isn’t exactly an expert in vetting Wedding Transportation services. However, your venue is. They screen dozens of companies to build their preferred list and considering their recommendations is a great idea as they are motivated to make sure your Wedding Transportation goes smoothly.
2. Defer to Your Hotel
In today’s Wedding industry, many hotels require you to secure outside Wedding Shuttle Service for you and your guests. The good news is they have already identified your best option or options so be sure to speak to your sales contact when reserving your room block for who they recommend.
3. Wedding Shows don’t Vet their Suppliers
So you attend a Bridal Show and see a Limousine company with a 10 x 10 table top with a picture of a bride on it. They must be a very good vendor to be able to show there correct? Not exactly. Most Bridal Shows don’t vet their suppliers and unless they hear something dramatically bad about them, as long as they pay they can show. So while it might be good information which you can learn there, don’t make any assumptions about their skills.
4. Size Matters
The size of your vehicle of course. When they tell you the vehicle can fit 10, does that mean 10 full-size adults with tuxes on and a Bride in an extravagantly long dress? My guess is no. So prior to booking, press them for details when they quote a number of passengers to make sure it will work for you. Comfort is critical.
5. How Many Trips?
So you booked your Wedding Shuttle Service from the hotel to the venue and back for your 60 guests. However, the day of the event, they show up with a 10 passenger Sprinter and tell you they will be making 6 trips. No! When booking your Shuttle Service, make sure you have the specific size of the vehicle in your contract so that you get exactly what you need.

So before you lock up that Limo or Party Bus, consider making a few calls to your contacts and ask them their opinion on who you should work with. You just might find that their recommendation will be the same company!
