Frequently Asked Questions

Tampa International Airport (TPA) is the closest commercial airport to Bradenton by road, about 44 miles and 1 hour without traffic via US 19, I-275 and US 41 Business. Orlando International Airport (MCO) is next at 117 miles. A wedding and event transportation booking can include the airport transfer at each end of the trip, so list the flight numbers when you request a quote.
Yes. Multi-stop wedding transportation is common: shuttles move guests between hotel blocks, the ceremony site and the reception venue on a set timeline, then run a late-night return loop. Share the full timeline, addresses and guest counts at booking, and connect the carrier with your wedding planner so arrival times line up with the ceremony and reception schedule.
One vehicle carries 15 to 56 guests, from a 15-passenger minibus for a small wedding party to a 56-passenger motorcoach for a larger guest list, with 25-, 30-, 35- and 40-passenger sizes in between. Weddings with more guests than one motorcoach use two or more vehicles running loops. Choose the mix based on headcount, the number of hotels and how far apart the venues are.
Decoration rules are set by each carrier. Many allow simple items such as ribbon, signage or window clings that do not damage the interior, while confetti, glitter and anything taped to upholstery are often not allowed. Tell the carrier your decoration plans when booking so they can confirm what is permitted and whether any cleaning fee applies after the event.
