Why Hire Wedding Transport in London?
Arranging group transport for your wedding guests takes the stress out of the day for everyone. No one needs to worry about finding parking in central London, navigating one-way systems, or dealing with the Congestion Charge. A coach or minibus can shuttle guests between the ceremony, reception and hotels, keeping your day running on time. It is especially important for London weddings where venues may be spread across different boroughs and parking is limited and expensive.
Wedding Transport Options
The most popular wedding transport options in London are: luxury coaches seating 30-50 guests with leather seats and air conditioning, standard minibuses seating 16-24 guests, executive minibuses with tinted windows and premium interiors, and vintage Routemaster buses for a quintessentially London experience. Many couples book multiple vehicles to cover different routes and pickup points across the capital.
Planning Your Wedding Transport
Start by working out how many guests need transport and where they are coming from. Common arrangements include morning transport from guest hotels to the ceremony venue, an afternoon shuttle from the ceremony to the reception (if at different venues), and an evening return service from the reception to hotels or key drop-off points. London traffic can be significant, so allow extra time in your schedule. An experienced London operator will know the best routes and can advise on realistic timings.
Popular Wedding Venues and Routes
London has an extraordinary selection of wedding venues from historic halls and luxury hotels to riverside terraces and rooftop gardens. Popular routes include hotels in Mayfair and Kensington to ceremony venues in Westminster or the City, South Bank venues to reception locations in Greenwich or Dulwich, Shoreditch and East London warehouse venues, and transfers to country house venues in Surrey, Hertfordshire and Essex just outside the capital. Iconic backdrops such as Tower Bridge, the Thames and the Royal Parks make the journey itself a memorable part of the day.
How Much Does Wedding Transport Cost in London?
Wedding coach hire in London typically costs £400-£800 for a full-size coach for a half-day service (4-5 hours). A 16-seater minibus for the same period is usually £250-£450. Evening return services cost from £200-£400 depending on distance and the number of drop-off points. Vintage Routemaster buses are a popular London option and typically cost £500-£900 for a half-day. Many operators offer wedding packages that include ribbons and bows on the vehicle at no extra charge.

Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book wedding transport in London?▼
Book as early as possible, ideally 6-12 months before your wedding date. Popular dates (Saturdays in summer) get booked up quickly, and London is one of the busiest wedding markets in the UK. Once you have your venue confirmed, transport should be one of the next things you arrange.
Can we hire a vintage Routemaster bus for our wedding?▼
Yes, vintage red Routemaster buses are a very popular wedding transport option in London. They are a unique and photogenic choice that guests love. Several operators in our directory specialise in vintage bus hire for weddings. Book early as these vehicles are in high demand.
What if our ceremony and reception are at the same venue?▼
You may still want transport for guests from their hotels to the venue and back in the evening. A shuttle service at the end of the night ensures guests get home safely and means everyone can enjoy themselves without worrying about driving in London or finding a taxi at midnight.
Can we make multiple hotel pickup stops?▼
Yes. Most operators are happy to make multiple pickup and drop-off points. For evening returns, a common arrangement is 2-4 hotel drop-offs in central London areas such as Westminster, Kensington, Bloomsbury or the South Bank. Discuss your route with the operator to get an accurate quote.
