We used David Thomas Trailways for our wedding on April 26, 2025 at Edgewood Country Club in River Vale, NJ and they were absolutely amazing. We rented two 60 passenger luxury moto...
rcoaches and they were perfect: clean, comfortable, and right on time.
From our very first call with Connie, their wedding coordinator, to the final days leading up to the wedding, the team was incredibly organized and professional. Connie was especially helpful. It’s clear they’ve been handling wedding transportation for many years and have tons of experience. She gave us tips we never would have thought of, made sure we had the right headcount for the buses, and helped us lock in the exact timing for everything. If you're looking for a stress-free transportation experience on your big day (because let’s be real, there are already plenty of other things to worry about) I highly recommend David Thomas Trailways. Thank you again Connie and the entire David Thomas team!

We had a fantastic experience with David Thomas Trailways for our October wedding. We used them to shuttle our guests from the hotels to the venue and then transport everyone back ...
to the hotels at the end of the night, and everything ran smoothly. The team - shoutout to Connie! - was very communicative throughout the planning process, the drivers were on time and friendly, and the buses were clean and comfortable. Even with unexpected road closures due to a protest, the buses still arrived on time, which gave us great peace of mind on such an important day. We highly recommend David Thomas Trailways for any future transportation needs in the Philly area!

Connie, the wedding specialist at David Thomas Trailways, knows her stuff. I was reluctant to take her advice concerning the transport of 240 people around Center City Philadelphi...
a for our son's wedding this December during the busy holiday season. I am so glad that I listened to her. We ended up renting 3 large luxury buses for transportation between the hotel, church and reception. We opted for the luxury buses, as we had several elderly people (with wheelchairs that were stowed under the bus by the drivers) and we didn't want them bouncing around on a school bus. Of course, we a little paid for the luxury, but it was worth it. The transportation was seamless! Several guests, many of whom have attended multiple weddings in Philly, raved about the transportation. The drivers were top-notch! They were timely, courteous, helpful and fun! Don't hesitate to call Connie...you won't regret it!

yone that wanted to leave early and then two buses for 11pm for the remainder of our guests. They waited until the 10pm bud was full after 10:45pm to leave. So we had guests sitting on a bus for 45+ minutes which was a bummer & something we should have made clear that we didn’t want the bus to wait until it was full.

The staff at David Thomas always communicated with us promptly throughout the entire planning process. Highly recommend!!

We hired David Thomas Trailways as transportation for wedding between the ceremony location and the reception venue, and then back at the end of the night. The buses did their job ...
of getting guests from point A to point B but we have been hearing various stories from guests in the weeks following the wedding that are a bit disappointing. First off Debbie was very responsive and overall great to work with! Our experience leading up to the event was good! She coordinated all of the details with my husband, multiple times, on the phone.
When he tried to provide precise directions on how to get to the venue, he was told that David Thomas Trailways has a wedding at our reception venue almost weekly, and the drivers won't have any issues getting there.
Unfortunately, we heard from guests that the second bus, carrying all of our immediate family members got lost and the driver did not really know where to go. He had some papers he tried looking through but the bus was delayed in getting to the cocktail hour and there were some stressful moments along the way.
We also arranged for one of the buses to make a trip from the reception and back to the hotels prior to the end of the reception -- this was to be unannounced (we stressed this to all vendors) and was primarily just for the elderly guests and those with young children (as we didn't want our wedding reception to empty out over 1.5 hours before the wedding was over). We had personally notified just those guests who would need to utilize this earlier trip. Unfortunately, we later learned that the bus driver had announced that he will be back at 10:30 to pick up guests. Some of our younger guests thought they needed to take this earlier trip to ensure that they got a ride back to the hotels. This explained why our reception felt quite empty towards the end of the night, missing many of our friends. A few of the people this earlier bus ride was purposely for (a grandmother and her 2 year old granddaughter) were unable to utilize it because they were told the bus was full.
Additionally, we had arranged for the other bus to make itself available in case a separate trip had to be made -- we had multiple pregnant guests and children and just wanted to have the reassurance that they could get a ride if needed at another point in the night. Well, it turned out that my pregnant sister sprained her ankle, and no one could find the buses at that time. Her husband ended up calling multiple ubers (which kept canceling on him because of the remote location of the venue) and missed almost 2 hours of the wedding reception just trying to deal with that. In our planning, we were hopeful that having the buses would mitigate this sort of situation and could be there in the event someone needed to make a trip back to the hotels (or even just to a Walgreens to get some medication and bandages). Though our experience with booking David Thomas Trailways went smoothly, it was not a very smooth experience for our guests which was really unfortunate to hear.
