Des Moines Wedding Transportation & Shuttle Service

Pricing depends on the van size and rental duration. For example, an 8-passenger sprinter starts at $130 per hour on weekdays, while a larger 15-passenger van ranges from $220 to $320 per hour on weekends. We offer daily rates for events lasting over 10 hours, often providing better value for full-day wedding coverage. Call 515-513-6930 for a customized quote tailored to your specific schedule.

We recommend booking at least six to nine months in advance, especially for popular Saturday dates in May, June, September, and October. Des Moines has several major events like the Iowa State Fair and Drake Relays that can limit availability. Booking early ensures you get the specific vehicle size and style you want for your wedding party and guests.

Yes, they do. High-capacity sprinter vans are in high demand during the peak Iowa wedding months. Weekends during the fall and spring often sell out months ahead of time. To guarantee your shuttle service for venues like the Iowa State Capitol or the Salisbury House, we suggest securing your van with a deposit as soon as your venues are finalized.

Our fleet offers a wide range of capacities to fit any group size. We have 8, 10, 12, 15, 18, and 20-passenger sprinter vans. For larger guest lists, we can coordinate multiple vans to run a continuous shuttle service. This flexibility allows you to pick the perfect size for your bridesmaids, groomsmen, or out-of-town family members without paying for unused space.

Absolutely. This is our most requested service. We provide door-to-door shuttles from downtown hotels like the Des Lux or Hotel Fort Des Moines to venues across the city. This allows your guests to leave their cars at the hotel and avoid the hassle of city parking. We’ll coordinate with you to set a pickup schedule that ensures everyone arrives before the processional.

Yes. Your rental is entirely customizable. We can pick up the bridesmaids at a salon, the groomsmen at a separate residence, and then head to the ceremony. Post-ceremony, we can drop guests off at the reception and later provide "early bird" and "late night" returns to various hotels. Just provide your list of stops when you call for your quote.

Yes, we provide private transfers from Des Moines International Airport. We can meet your group at the arrivals terminal and take them directly to their lodging. This is a great way to welcome VIP guests or family members who aren’t familiar with the Des Moines area, ensuring they arrive at their hotel refreshed and ready for the wedding festivities.

Yes! We want the van to feel like part of your celebration. You are welcome to add "Just Married" signs or ribbons to the exterior, provided they are attached safely and don't obstruct the driver's view. For the interior, you can add floral arrangements or small decorations. We just ask that you avoid any adhesives or materials that could damage the cabin surfaces.

We understand that celebrations can run long. If you need to extend your service on the night of the wedding, simply speak with your driver. We can typically accommodate overtime at our standard hourly rate, ensuring no guest is left behind. We recommend building a little "buffer time" into your initial booking to account for those extra dances at the end of the night.

Yes, every vehicle in our fleet features powerful, multi-zone climate control. This is essential for Iowa’s humid summers, ensuring your bridal party stays cool and their hair and makeup remain perfect. The drivers can pre-cool the van before your group boards, providing immediate relief from the heat after outdoor photo sessions at places like Pappajohn Sculpture Park.
