    party school bus

    First Student Charter Bus provided 2 school buses for transportation on our wedding day. Drivers were patient and friendly and, though I can only speak for the bus I was on at the end of the night, they kept the party going! Great experience.

    Great Service

    We used First Bus for our guests to get to and from hotel. They were extremely easy to book & they called prior to the wedding to confirm everything. The guests enjoyed the bus and weren't on top of each other to get there.

    Great Experience!

    We used the First Charter service based in Albany, NY. Everything was simple, easy, and they were very helpful and responsive with everything we needed. On the day of our wedding they were on time and did a great job. I highly recommend!

    Go to transportation!

    Transportation was flawless, we had 2 busses going from the hotel to the venue and back. The bus drivers were so nice and helpful, and the company made the booking seamless. Highly recommend First Student Charter Bus for your transportation needs!

    Great service!

    I don’t know how First Charter doesn’t have better reviews. The bus arrived on time. The driver was very accommodating and let us take the long way from the church to the reception. Everyone loved the throw back feel of taking a yellow school bus. We brought two coolers filled with beer… The only rule is no glass allowed. The price is extremely reasonable and much cheaper than every other option. The bus holds 40 people. I would definitely book this company again!

    Thank you for an amazing experience!

    First Student was excellent for our transportation needs. They arrived at the end of our reception, to pick up guests and transport them back to the hotel for the after party. Our driver was polite, professional, and very accommodating - especially given the rowdy nature of our guests. Highly recommend!

    Would Recommend!

    We used 3 buses from First Student charter to shuttle our guests home from the venue at the end of the night and were pleased with the service. First Student was organized and communicative in advance of the event, showed up early enough to be ready for loading promptly, had extremely clean buses, and the drivers were all very friendly. The drivers had no issue with guests continuing to sing loudly and have a great time during the drive, which was great to keep the energy up!

    Great service and price

    First Student was such a great choice of shuttle between our hotel and wedding reception venue. The driver arrived and departed on time and communicated with me on the day of. She even came back to the reception venue for an unscheduled last pickup when we called her, and then called me after searching the bus when she found something that had been left so I could come down to the lobby to pick it up from her. The price was far better than other companies we looked at and the service was great, and so nice for people not to have to worry about driving or paying for a ride!

    Great company for transportation

    We used them for transportation only a few miles away from the hotel room block. Very responsive, on time & clean. Willing to accommodate drop-off location that changed at the end of the night.

    Barbara and the Branford CT location are amazing!

    I didn’t think my transportation vendor would be my favorite but Barbara and Zina, our driver, made our wedding seamless and special. Barbara had no issues with our twice rescheduled wedding, was extremely fast, easy, and so positive to communicate with. When I dropped off our check, she greeted me like an old friend and that warmth comes through even in email. Zina decorated our bus to transport us and our guests -an amazing touch! Highly recommend.

    Excellent and Affordable Transportation

    We hired First Student Charter Bus to shuttle our wedding guests from the hotel to our venue for an October wedding. We were committed to providing safe transportation to our guests and this was the most affordable transportation option. The bus driver was timely, professional, and very nice. When we thought we left an item on the bus the following day, we called the main number and they were able to reach the bus driver and discuss our concern. They were really helpful and we are happy with our choice!

    Very Responsive and Reliable

    First Student was so easy to work with! They made sure that all of our New Year's Eve Wedding guests were taken safely from their hotels to the wedding venue and back. They offered an unlimited number of trips back and forth between the hours we booked - which worked out very well for grandparents or other guests who did not want to stay up until midnight. They were very flexible when scheduling and prepared new quotes quickly when updated info was provided. I definitely recommend working with First Student!

    Reasonably priced & Extremely reliable

    Everybody loved that they didn’t have to worry about getting to the venue & the busses were amazing. There was a huge snow storm the night of our wedding & they didn’t give us any issues s with shuttling the guests. Highly recommend!

    Perfect lower-cost (and fun) option for wedding guest transportation

    We had a great experience with First Student for our guest shuttles. Their rates were significantly more reasonable than the other transportation companies I contacted. It was easy to make adjustments in the weeks leading up to the wedding, and they got our guests to the wedding on time. Our guests had lots of fun with the school bus, even leading rounds of “the wheels on the bus” on the bus back to the hotel after the wedding!

    Fun and Affordable!

    What a fun way to transport all of your guests from one location to another! They were the most reasonably priced transportation group and the driver was so nice and even waited for us (the bride and groom) to gather all our things from the venue and hop on the bus. I would highly recommend them to anyone on a budget looking for a fun type of transportation!

    I was a little hesitant to book a school bus but for budget reasons it fit the bill. I was very pleasantly surprised by the booking process and service. I wish I had our driver’s name because she was so incredibly wonderful and patient with my rowdy guests. Everyone had so much!
