We used Chesapeake Charter for our wedding in May at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club, and they were absolutely fantastic! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and stress-free. They coordinated pickups from three different hotels befo...
re the ceremony, got everyone to the venue on time, and later provided transportation to our after-party at The Jetty and back to the hotels.
All of the buses were clean, comfortable, and punctual, and their drivers were friendly and professional. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our guests were taken care of and could enjoy the day without worrying about transportation. We highly recommend Chesapeake Charter for any event, especially weddings!

We used Chesapeake Charters for our wedding transportation and highly recommend them! When I initially reached out for a quote, I heard back quickly from Jake, who was friendly, answered all my questions and gave us a few different options to c...
onsider at different price points. We ended up going with 3 school buses and their pricing was better than every other quote I received from other companies. They were also flexible when it came to adjusting if we needed closer to the actual date (which we didn’t).
On the day of, the three buses showed up promptly at the hotel to pick up our guests (with a sign) and got them to the venue on time. They did two runs at night for our guests (including ourselves) and everything went so smoothly. The drivers were friendly and professional and kept to our schedule as outlined. Definitely recommend using Chesapeake Charters and working with Jake!

We worked with Jake at Chesapeake Charter for transportation for our wedding and rehearsal dinner. He was really great to work with and offered very reasonable rates and provided excellent communication.
The shuttles were all on time and the d...
rivers were safe. We did run into some issues around end-of-the-evening transportation. We were told the shuttles would be making multiple trips between venues and hotels, but they stayed and did single trips, so we had people waiting on the bus for quite a while, which was unfortunate.
