Can we add extra hours?

Yes. Additional hours can be added when available. We recommend building buffer time into your itinerary to avoid last-minute stress and overtime surprises.

Yes—BYOB is typically fine for 21+ groups. We recommend sealed beverages, plastic cups, and coolers with fresh ice. Glass is discouraged for safety.

Is food allowed on board?

Generally no food on vehicles to keep interiors clean. Drivers can make stops along the route so your group can grab food between destinations.

Can we decorate the vehicle?

Yes—balloons, streamers, and posters are usually fine as long as they don’t cause damage or leave residue. Anything that risks damage isn’t permitted.

Yes for appropriate events (prom, school formals, sports, etc.). If minors are present and alcohol is involved, a parent or legal guardian must be on board. Underage drinking is strictly prohibited.

No—smoking is not allowed on vehicles. Unlimited stops are typically allowed within your reserved timeframe for restroom or smoke breaks.

Pets are generally allowed with prior approval. Let us know ahead of time so we can place you with the best vehicle and policies for your trip.

Vehicle Options for Denver Weddings

For the Couple Stretch Limousine — The classic choice. Elegant entrance, private moments between ceremony and reception, and a grand exit at the end of the night. Our 6-8 passenger stretch limos are perfect for the couple plus a few attendants.

Vintage/Classic Car — For couples wanting a unique, Instagram-worthy ride.

For the Bridal Party Party Bus (18-30 passengers) — The #1 choice for bridal parties. Everyone gets ready together, the party starts on the bus, and you arrive at the ceremony with all your best people by your side. The bus doubles as a mobile getting-ready room with mirrors, music, and champagne.

For Guests Coach Bus (40-56 passengers) — Guest shuttle service between ceremony and reception (especially when they're at different venues), hotel-to-venue shuttles, and end-of-night safe rides home. Professional, comfortable, and reliable.

Multi-Vehicle Packages Most Denver weddings use a combination: - 1 limousine for the couple - 1 party bus for the bridal party - 1-2 coach buses for guests

We offer multi-vehicle packages with coordinated timing and often provide package discounts.

1. Book early — June-October wedding dates book up fast. Secure transportation 6-9 months out.

2. Over-communicate — Share your complete timeline, every address, and every contact number. More information = smoother execution.

3. Build in buffer time — Things run late at weddings. Build 15-30 minutes of buffer into every transportation window.

4. Consider the weather — Colorado weather is unpredictable. Have a plan for rain, snow, or extreme heat. Our vehicles are climate-controlled.

5. Don't forget the end of the night — Many couples plan the arrival perfectly but forget about getting 150 guests home safely after an open bar. Guest shuttles are essential.

6. Tip your driver — Standard is 15-20% of the booking total. Your driver works hard to make your day perfect.

7. Decorate the bus — We allow tasteful decorations. "Just Married" signs, ribbons, and flowers make great photo opportunities.

8. Plan for photos — Your photographer will want shots of you arriving, exiting the limo, and on the bus with your bridal party. Coordinate timing.
