We can even pair you with a vehicle that offers extra storage space under the cabin, so all your tents, coolers, sports equipment, and gear can be secured out of the way until you need them.
Timely and Elegant Charleston Wedding Shuttles
When it comes to planning your wedding day, the last thing you’ll want to worry about is your loved ones running late to the main events.

Whether it’s an elegant reception at Cannon Green or an intimate ceremony at your favorite local chapel, you can quickly sort through minibus rental options to find a ride that ticks every box.

Simply list out your must-see locales—from tours of the Nathaniel Russell House to strolls along the waterfront—and you can create a custom pick-up and drop-off itinerary that fits the pace your travelers want to take. From there, your bus driver will always arrive with plenty of time to load up, get settled, and shuttle off to your next destination in total comfort.
Explore Destinations Near Charleston with CharterUP
Of course, your Charleston group transportation doesn’t need to begin or end within the city itself! If you’re planning a road trip to other major cities in the Southeast, the CharterUP marketplace is here to help. Book a charter bus to Atlanta to explore museums and cultural sites like no other, rent an Augusta charter bus to catch the Masters Tournament live and in person, explore historic sites in a Savannah bus rental, or plan a bachelorette weekend with a Charlotte bus rental by your side every leg of the journey.
