Couples planning their weddings routinely rely on profession­al transporta­tion to bring them to and from the ceremony and reception. According to The Knot Real Weddings Study 2016, roughly half of all engaged couples will hire a transporta­tion service such as a limousine or party bus for their weddings.

Wedding transporta­tion options abound, and some are more popular than others. The following are some of the ways couples are getting to the altar on time. asking guests to get themselves to and fro, couples may employ buses or shuttles stocked with amenities to transport a greater number of people. The Real Weddings Study indicates this type of transport has grown considerab­ly more popular in the last six years. to set their weddings apart, couples are trending away from traditiona­l stretch limousines and renting something more trendy, such as limos built upon sports cars. SUV-based limos are still popular, with Hummers, Escalades, and Navigators offering the wow factor. Dream cars for this type of glamorous arrival and departure include Rolls Royce, Bentley, Aston Martin and others. Many private companies rent classic vehicles. Couples also may contract with those who attend classic car shows. speedboats may be the transporta­tion of choice.

The Knot says that couples spend around 6.5 months researchin­g their wedding day transporta­tion options and will make their decision and a reservatio­n five months before their weddings. The more exotic the transporta­tion option, the earlier couples should make their decisions to ensure they can book their first choice.
