A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Navigating Historic Estate Weddings with Ease
Redlands is famous for its stunning historic architecture and preserved estates, making it a top destination for vintage-inspired and fairytale weddings. One of the most iconic venues is the Kimberly Crest House & Gardens (1325 Prospect Dr, Redlands, CA 92373). This French château-style Victorian mansion looks like it was plucked straight out of a storybook. However, parking in the surrounding Prospect Park area can be limited, especially for large guest lists. By renting a wedding shuttle bus from Charter Bus Rental Company Redlands, you can arrange for guests to be picked up from their hotels and dropped off right at the gate. Your driver will handle the navigation through the winding, tree-lined streets of South Redlands, ensuring a grand entrance for everyone.
Another local favorite is the Edwards Mansion (2064 Orange Tree Ln, Redlands, CA 92374). Known for its beautiful outdoor pavilions and historic greenhouses, this venue offers a quintessential Redlands experience. While the venue has parking, coordinating a convoy of fifty cars can lead to delays. A 56-passenger charter bus rental keeps your entire party together. We can stage the bus nearby to ensure a prompt departure after the reception, meaning your guests won't be wandering the parking lot in the dark. Our buses come equipped with climate control—a must-have for those warm Inland Empire afternoons—so your guests stay cool and their formal wear stays crisp from the hotel lobby to the ceremony seating.
Industrial Chic and Downtown Redlands Logistics
If your couple is looking for a more modern, industrial vibe, Downtown Redlands has incredible options, most notably The Mitten Building (345 N 5th St, Redlands, CA 92374). This historic citrus packing house turned event venue is a stunner, featuring exposed brick and rustic charm. However, it is located right in the heart of the city near the railroad tracks and the busy downtown corridor. Parking can be a challenge on weekends when locals flood State Street for dining and shopping. A shuttle service is the perfect solution. We can run continuous loops from local hotels directly to The Mitten Building, ensuring guests don't have to circle the block searching for a spot or walk long distances in heels.
Utilizing a minibus rental for downtown weddings also allows you to take advantage of the local scenery for photos without the hassle of moving cars. Your driver can shuttle the bridal party to the famous Umbrella Alley on Orange Street or over to the historic Santa Fe Depot for unique, urban backdrops. With a driver at the wheel, you avoid the stress of navigating one-way streets and can focus on capturing the perfect shot. Plus, with onboard entertainment systems, you can keep the party vibe going with music and videos while you travel between photo locations.
Outdoor Ceremonies and Park Transportation
For those who want to embrace the natural beauty of the area, venues like The Asistencia (26930 Barton Rd, Redlands, CA 92373) offer a rustic, outdoor setting rooted in California history. As an outpost of the Mission San Gabriel, it offers beautiful courtyards and historic adobe structures. However, outdoor venues often come with their own set of logistical hurdles, primarily regarding guest comfort and accessibility. A charter bus rental acts as a mobile cooling station and a safe, reliable transfer point. If you are planning a ceremony at a local park, such as the beautiful Prospect Park (1352 Prospect Dr, Redlands, CA 92373), having a shuttle bus is essential to keep traffic congestion low in these quiet residential neighborhoods.
When you book with Charter Bus Rental Company Redlands, you aren't just getting a vehicle; you are getting a logistics partner. We can help you plan the best drop-off points to minimize walking distances for elderly guests and ensure that your timeline is adhered to strictly. These drivers are locals who know the area well—they know which roads might be busy due to the Redlands Bowl Summer Music Festival and which shortcuts to take to get your guests to the reception on time. We handle the traffic on Alabama Street or Redlands Boulevard so your guests can simply enjoy the view of the San Bernardino Mountains.
Seamless Hotel and Airport Transfers
Many weddings in Redlands draw guests from all over the country. The closest major airport is Ontario International Airport (ONT), located about 20 minutes west of Redlands. Navigating a new city after a flight can be daunting, and rideshare costs can skyrocket. Offer your out-of-town guests the VIP treatment by arranging an airport transfer shuttle. We can pick up your guests curbside at ONT and deliver them directly to popular local hotels like the Ayres Hotel Redlands (1015 W Colton Ave, Redlands, CA 92374) or the Comfort Suites Redlands (1230 W Colton Ave, Redlands, CA 92374).
Once your guests are settled, a recurring shuttle service between the hotel block and your wedding events ensures that no one is left behind. This is particularly important if you have a gap between the ceremony and reception. Instead of guests awkwardly waiting around or getting lost trying to find a coffee shop, your shuttle can take them back to the hotel to freshen up or drop them off at Hangar 24 Craft Brewery (1710 Sessums Dr, Redlands, CA 92374) for a pre-reception drink. This level of thoughtful organization creates a seamless guest experience that will be remembered long after the cake is cut.
Bachelor and Bachelorette Party Transportation
Before the big day arrives, there is plenty of celebrating to be done! Redlands and the surrounding Inland Empire offer fantastic options for bachelor and bachelorette parties. Whether you are planning a sophisticated wine tasting tour or a wild night out, a party bus rental is the safest and most fun way to travel. You can start the night with dinner at The Tartan of Redlands (24 E Redlands Blvd, Redlands, CA 92373) for some classic cocktails and steaks, then hop on the bus to explore the nightlife in downtown Redlands along State Street.
If your group is feeling adventurous, use your charter bus to take a day trip. You are just a short drive from the mountains! Book a bus to take the wedding party up to Big Bear Lake for a day on the water or the slopes, depending on the season. Or, head west to the wineries of Rancho Cucamonga. With a driver acting as your designated driver, the entire group can indulge and celebrate responsibly. Our party buses come equipped with premium sound systems, LED lighting, and comfortable seating, turning the travel time into part of the party.
Rehearsal Dinners and Welcome Parties
The wedding weekend often kicks off with a rehearsal dinner, and Redlands has no shortage of excellent culinary spots. Places like Caprice Cafe (104 E State St, Redlands, CA 92373) offer delicious organic cuisine right in the heart of downtown. However, downtown parking can be scarce on Friday nights. By providing a shuttle from the hotel to the rehearsal dinner, you ensure that your bridal party and family arrive together and on time, ready to run through the ceremony details. It sets a tone of organization and care for the entire weekend.
For larger welcome parties, consider renting a larger motorcoach to transport guests to a casual venue like Darby's American Cantina (1 State St, Redlands, CA 92373). Keeping the group together encourages mingling between the bride's and groom's families before the main event. It also prevents out-of-towners from getting confused by the local one-way streets or getting stuck in traffic on the I-10. Charter Bus Rental Company Redlands makes these pre-wedding events effortless, allowing you to focus on the toasts and the tacos.

Redlands is a popular wedding destination, especially during the spring and fall when the weather is perfect. Dates fill up quickly! However, we understand that plans can happen quickly, and we always do our best to accommodate last-minute requests. Call our 24/7 team at 951-596-5250 to check availability for your specific date.

Our fleet offers a variety of premium amenities to ensure your guests travel in comfort. Most of our full-size charter buses and minibuses come equipped with cushioned reclining seats, climate control (essential for Redlands summers!), and overhead storage.

If you have specific needs, such as an onboard restroom or ADA accessibility, please mention them when you call 951-596-5250, and we will match you with the perfect vehicle.
Does the bus stay with us during the ceremony and reception?
That is entirely up to you and the package you create! You can book a "drop-off and pick-up" service where the bus leaves and returns later, or you can book the bus to stay on-site for the duration of your event. Keeping the bus on-site offers flexibility, allowing for early departures for elderly guests or families with children who may want to leave the reception before it ends. We customize your itinerary to fit your specific timeline and budget.

Absolutely! Charter Bus Rental Company Redlands serves the entire Inland Empire and Southern California region. We frequently transport guests to and from neighboring cities like Loma Linda, Yucaipa, Highland, San Bernardino, and Riverside.
