Wedding transportation in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Connecticut, planned by one team from the first call to the last guest drop-off. Gem Worldwide's dedicated wedding team coordinates every ride on a single timeline: the bridal arrival, the wedding party, guest shuttles from the hotel block and the getaway car. The couple watches the aisle, not the clock.
Family-owned and serving the Northeast since 1976, from New Jersey and the Jersey Shore to Manhattan, Philadelphia and Connecticut. Gina leads the wedding team and builds the schedule with you well before the day.
What we plan for your wedding day
- Bride and groom transportation. An executive sedan or SUV for the couple, with a senior chauffeur in formal black tie and the vehicle staged 30 minutes before departure.
- Wedding party transportation. A limo Sprinter keeps the wedding party together between the getting-ready location, the ceremony, photos and the reception.
- Guest shuttles. Mini coaches and motor coaches loop between the hotel room block, the ceremony and the reception, so no guest has to drive.
- Out-of-town hotel block. Airport arrivals and hotel transfers for guests traveling in for the weekend.
- Rehearsal dinner. Rides to and from the rehearsal dinner the night before, on the same master schedule.
- Late-night returns. Return runs after the reception so everyone gets back to the hotel safely.
- Getaway car. The last ride of the night, staged for the send-off photos.
- Bachelor and bachelorette parties. A limo bus or Sprinter for the night out before the wedding.
- Honeymoon transportation. The airport transfer when you leave for the honeymoon, with flight tracking.
How to choose vehicles by party size
We match each vehicle to the headcount, the venue's driveway and the photos you have planned. These are the passenger limits we plan to:
| Group | Vehicle | Up to |
|---|
| The couple, or parents of the couple | Executive sedan | 3 passengers |
| The couple with family, or a small bridal group | SUV | 6 passengers |
| Bridal party or groomsmen | Limo Sprinter | 13 passengers |
| A larger wedding party, or the bachelor or bachelorette night | Limo bus | 22 passengers |
| Guest shuttles from a hotel block | Mini coach | 27 to 40 passengers, by vehicle |
| Large guest shuttles | Motor coach | 56 passengers |
For more than one vehicle type, we put every pickup on the same timeline so each group arrives in the right order. See the full fleet.
A typical wedding-day timeline
- Months ahead: first call. Share your date, venues, guest count and hotel block. We recommend vehicles and hold them.
- Weeks ahead: the master schedule. Every vehicle gets its own pickup time and address: each side of the family, the bridal party, the shuttle loop and the getaway car.
- The day: staging. The bridal vehicle is staged 30 minutes before departure. Arrival staging is planned with your photographer so the first photos happen at the door, not the curb.
- Ceremony to reception. The wedding party rides together for photos. Guest shuttles run on a set loop, typically 30 minutes apart.
- End of night. Late-night returns to the hotel, then the getaway car.
Dispatch follows the day live, so the couple and their families never have to make a call.
Guest shuttles from your hotel block
Guest shuttles are one of the most useful things you can book. They keep guests on time, take parking pressure off the venue and mean no one drives after the celebration. We plan the loop around your hotel block, the ceremony and the reception, with late-night returns at the end. Tell us the hotel, the guest count and the venue addresses, and we will size the vehicles and set the loop.

Do you coordinate the full wedding day, not just one car?
Yes. Our dedicated wedding team plans the bridal arrival, wedding-party transfers, guest shuttles and the getaway car on one master timeline. Every vehicle has its own pickup time and address, every chauffeur works from the same schedule, and dispatch follows the day live, so the couple and their families never have to make a call on the day.
Can you shuttle guests between hotels and the venue?
Yes. Guest shuttles from hotel room blocks to the ceremony and reception are a core part of what we plan. Mini coaches or motor coaches run on a set loop, keep guests on time, take parking pressure off the venue and bring everyone back to the hotel after the reception.
What vehicles are available for weddings in New Jersey and New York?
Executive sedans and SUVs for the couple and immediate family, a limo-style Sprinter for the bridal party, and mini coaches or motor coaches for larger guest shuttles. We match each vehicle to the headcount, the venue's driveway and the photos you have planned, so every arrival looks the way you pictured it.
How far ahead should we book wedding transportation?
Popular dates, especially spring and fall Saturdays, book early, so reaching out as soon as your venues are set secures vehicles and a coordinator. Our wedding team walks you through the timeline and builds the schedule with you well before the day, so the final details are settled long before the rehearsal.
Can each side of the family have its own vehicles?
Yes. We routinely plan separate vehicles for the bride's side and the groom's side, each with its own pickup address and timing, all on one master timeline so everyone arrives in the right order.
Do you run guest shuttles from a hotel block?
Yes. We run shuttles from your hotel room block to the ceremony and reception, with loops typically 30 minutes apart, plus late-night returns so guests never need to drive after the celebration.
What does the bridal vehicle include?
A senior chauffeur in formal black tie, a vehicle staged 30 minutes before departure, champagne and flowers on request, and arrival staging planned with your photographer so the first photos happen at the door, not the curb.
