Minnesota-Minneapolis and St. Paul

Charter bus or Limo bus

My FI is telling if we could get a charter bus or a mini bus that seats 24 it's cheaper than a limo bus?  Can someone tell me your thoughts on this?  I am not too thrilled about the idea of being crunched into a front seated bus in my wedding dress.  Looking for about 2-3 hours.

Thanks

    I can confirm it's cheaper. I was quoted $400 for 3 hrs for a 30 passenger coach bus, but the cheapest I found for a limo bus was $576 for 2 hrs (Cities Limousine) - most were $800 or more. Companies like Lorenz also have MTC-style buses, so you wouldn't necessarily need to face forward. 

    We're using Minnesota Coaches for our coach bus, which will bring the WP to the church and shuttle guests from the hotel (we have 100+ from OOT), then we're using a limo coach for the WP after the ceremony while the coach bus shuttles to the reception. 

    I was hesitant to admit to being a bride, but I found that most bus companies offer special wedding packages that are cheaper then a corporate/by-the-hour rate.

    I just booked with Eclipse Cars and got a Charter Limo-seating 26 for $450 for 2 hours. It has limo seating on the inside, but seats a lot. You can see pictures and get for info at Eclipsecars.com

    We had a limo-bus/party bus and it was $125/hour flat rate.  Check out fun run party buses . com and talk to Dustin.  He's really reasonable and easy to work with.
