After having to change our wedding from September 2020 in Chicagoland area to November 2020 in Indiana Aries Charter was nothing but accommodating! It was such a relief that in all the chaos of 2020 wedding planning that our transportation was...

Aries provided us with Transportation for groom and groomsmen from their getting ready location to the church, a second trip for the bride and bridesmaids, as well as taking us all to the reception from the ceremony.

Aries was on-time and punctual for transportation on our big day. Only complaint is that the driver wasn't too familiar with how to use the entertainment system to play music, but we were only riding for a short while.

Any questions?

Let me start by saying I am a was probably too laid back as a bride. So laid back, in fact, that I didn't book my transport until few days before the wedding! Transport should be the easiest part right? No big deal? WRONG! Transport services ...

can be booked up and because it is Chicago on the same weekend as the Chicago Marathon some places were wanting $1k+. I had actually called a different transportation services and they were booked. But they were so kind they told me to call Antoinette and see if she can help me. She is AMAZING! Not only did she help me, but she was so kind in every interaction we had. Within an hour or so of talking to her on the phone I was signing paperwork and everything was done. Everybody gave the driver Cleaotha rave reviews!! He was so good he got the guests there before me and I was only a few blocks away from the venue!! I could not recommend this vendor any higher if I tried!

We booked a limousine from Aries Charter for our wedding day. From start to finish, working with Aries Charter was an excellent experience. Antoinette handled our booking and was really helpful with planning the travel from our downtown hotel, ...

to our photo shoot locations, to the venue. The company’s price for a 2-hour limo rental is very reasonable compared to other companies we checked. On the wedding day, Aaron, our driver, did a superb job getting us around to our photo locations quickly so that we had plenty of time to take pictures. He had a very professional and confident attitude which helped us relax and enjoy ourselves. When it started raining during the shoot, he graciously helped us in and out of the limo while holding an umbrella to keep us from getting damp. The limousine itself was very nice and comfortably seated 7 (including our wedding party and photographer). We would highly recommend Aries Charter to prospective couples!

I can't highly enough of this company!!!! I called two weeks before the wedding to find a shuttle from the reception to the hotel since the hotel shuttle would only fit 10 (we had 25). They didn't really have anything that would make sense f...

or us, but were SUPER kind in recommending two other places to call and even game me the phone number. Truly a Miracle on 34th Street situation. The day before the wedding I found out that the trolley were reserved (from a different company) had no air conditioning. It was, literally, 97 degrees the day of the wedding so that wasn't going to work. After sobbing for ten minutes, the groom and I started calling other places and I immediately called Aries. They had something for us and it didn't break the budget. We booked immediately and easily. The driver was on time, really nice, got us there with plenty of air conditioning, and even had a cooler of beer for the boys. WHAT?!!?! It was fabulous! I will be calling them if I ever need some kind of transportation. Ugh I can't say enough good things!

We hired Aries to drive us from our wedding ceremony to the reception. I booked the 24 passenger party bus about 8 months in advance. The woman I initially worked with answered emails within a few hours, was very courteous on the phone, and e...

ven went out of her way to take extra pictures of the bus and email me photos since I live out of town and didn't have time to come see the bus in person. About a month before our wedding, I called to confirm our bus. The owner informed me the girl I'd worked with previously was no longer with the company and that there was a $150 fee for bringing outside alcohol and food onto the bus. When I told him I'd specifically asked about this before booking, he waived the fee. The day of the wedding, the bus arrived right on time. The driver, Reuben, was delightful. He let us play whatever music we wanted, drove us to 2 different locations for pictures, waited patiently while we took pictures, and even took us for an extra lap before dropping us off at the venue because we were having so much fun. Thanks Reuben and Aries for making our wedding day wonderful!

hat was cut from 30min to 10min. And the best part? They were running so behind that they didn't make the trip back in time to pick ME up! The bride. In my wedding dress. So I had to take an Uber. Again.. in my wedding dress! It was a nightmare. Not something you want to deal with when you're already nervous about so many things. Done yet? No. The driver was rude and antagonizing on the drive back at the end of the night. Really the way I wanted to cap off my wedding night... thanks Aries. Do not call them. They were absolutely awful from start to finish.

Response from the Vendor on 11/25/2014

This is a very difficult response for me to make in light of video from the evening in question and the comment that "they didn't show". A company never wants to make a bride unhappy. Our goal is to provide safe, courteous and timely service. ...

With your wedding - unfortunately, things did not go well. We arrived and transported your guests to the venue. On the way there and back we ran into terrible traffic. We didn't get back to you as quickly as was scheduled and you had to Uber. We are very, very sorry about that. Our driver did his best to get back for you as quickly and safely as possible. The driver tried very hard and we are very sorry. There are some things we just can't control. To address your comments regarding the driver being "rude and antagonizing" at the end of the evening. Our vehicles have video on them and after reviewing the video of what happened on the vehicle from that evening... I have to say - The driver remained professional and courteous despite being antagonized and attacked both verbally and physically - to the point where he had to call 911. We would be happy to share the video if you would like see how professional he remained. Again, we are truly sorry about your having to Uber in your wedding dress (not what anyone wanted) and it is not our usual standard of service. We do not blame you for your anger. Wishing you and your husband all the best. Antoinette Gonzales Dir. of Sales & Marketing
