Wedding guest shuttle service in Chicago

A wedding guest shuttle in Chicago takes guests from the hotel block to the ceremony and the reception and back again, so nobody drives after the toasts. We size the vehicles to your headcount and the drive between the hotel and the venue: an Executive Sprinter or Transit Van for 14, or the 28-seat mini coach and 56-seat motor coach, which are quoted.

Planning the guest shuttle

Count riders, not invitations
Only guests staying at the hotel block need the shuttle; locals who drive themselves come off the list.
Time one round trip
Take the drive from the hotel to the venue, double it, and add loading at both ends.
Fixed or on demand
Set departures suit the ceremony; on-demand runs suit the evening, when guests leave in waves.
Choose the last run
Pick the final departure from the reception and print it on the welcome card, so no one is stranded.
Share the schedule
Post the times at the hotel desk, in the welcome bags and on the wedding website.

Where the shuttle earns its keep

The ceremony run
The motor coach seats 56, so most of a hotel block reaches the ceremony on one departure.
Guests flying in
Out-of-town guests landing at O'Hare are flight-tracked and met, then driven to the hotel the day before.
Late-night returns
A Sprinter for 14 handles the final runs after the big coach has gone.

Wedding Guest Shuttle

Wedding guest shuttle runs in Chicago, sized to the guest list

Picture a hotel 10 minutes from the venue: a round trip with loading takes about 40 minutes. For 50 guests, one motor coach covers the ceremony in a single run, or a mini coach makes two runs 40 minutes apart. For 100, two motor coaches leave together, or one coach starts early and runs twice. For 150, two motor coaches and a mini coach carry 140 in one wave, or the two coaches double back once.

Fixed departures work for the ceremony, because everyone needs to arrive inside the same half hour. The evening runs better on demand: an early return for families and older guests, then loops until the last run you choose. If the venue or the hotel wants a name list of who rides, send it with the booking and the chauffeur has it at the door.

24/7FAQ

Wedding Guest Shuttle: questions

Still deciding? Call (331) 356-3856 any hour, or start a booking to see your options.

How many shuttle runs do 100 wedding guests need?

It depends on the drive. With a hotel 10 minutes away, one motor coach for 56 makes two runs about 40 minutes apart, or two coaches leave at the same time. Send the addresses and we work out the plan.

Should the shuttle run on a schedule or on demand?

Use a fixed schedule for the ceremony, when everyone arrives together, and on-demand loops in the evening, when guests drift back in small groups.

When should the last shuttle run leave?

At the end of the reception, printed on the welcome card or a sign at the hotel desk. An earlier return for families and older guests helps too.

Can you bring out-of-town wedding guests from O'Hare?

Yes. Send the flight list and each flight is tracked, with 1 hour of free waiting; a family takes an SUV, and a group on one flight takes a Sprinter or a coach.

Do you run guest shuttles to suburban wedding venues?

Yes, anywhere in our service area, from Cantigny Park in Wheaton to the Deer Path Inn in Lake Forest or The Glen Club in Glenview. Ask the venue where a full-size coach can stop.
