How to plan guest transport for a Sydney wedding
Set the timeline, stops and headcount, and each wedding shuttle company can quote the same plan.
What goes in the wedding day timeline?
List the day in times: guests arrive, the ceremony starts, photos, the reception opens and the last guests leave.
Which stops and guests need a wedding shuttle?
Start with your stops in order: ceremony, photos, reception and where guests stay.
Then count the guests who would like a lift, as some will drive or leave early. Prams and luggage are worth a mention too.
How do you avoid delays at venues?
Share your plan for the day with each venue and your wedding shuttle company: when and where everything happens.
What should guests know before the day?
A short message before the day helps guests: the boarding spot and time, and the name of the person to call.
Set the boarding time a little before departure so the bus leaves on time.
How do you plan the late returns?
Think about when the reception ends and who needs a ride back to the accommodation. Guests may leave at different times, so one run or several may suit your group.
