From our very first interaction, Buddy was incredibly helpful, responsive, and professional. He didn't just help us coordinate transportation—he also provided thoughtful recommendations for our wedding timeline, other vendors, and local hotels, which was such a nice bonus. On the wedding day, everything ran seamlessly. The shuttles were on time, organized, and took one less thing off our plate so we could simply enjoy the day. Buddy was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish, and we couldn't have been happier with the service. We would highly recommend him to any couple looking for reliable, stress-free wedding transportation!

We left transportation to the last minute since we were up in the air about whether we really needed it to get our guests from our reception space to the after-party, as they were ...
about a 10-minute car ride apart. However, we wanted to encourage guests to come, and I truly do not regret getting transportation, I don’t think we would have had as many people come otherwise since they had the option of safe travel.
We had a unique situation where we really only needed transportation one way. Many companies have high minimums or wouldn't offer quick one-way service, but Rhode Island Wedding Shuttle was more than willing to work with us. They were super easy to book via email, and paying our invoices was a breeze.
Our two drivers, Ricky and John B, were so sweet. They graciously waited while we had to 'drag' guests out of the reception since everyone was having such a great time! They safely got us to our after-party in honestly the nicest, most comfortable passenger vans I’ve ever been in. The vans were perfectly air-conditioned, and the drivers even let us control the AC and music as needed. It was a perfect part of the evening and I could not recommend them more!

We got married in November, and I would enthusiastically recommend Experience RI to any couple--we had such a wonderful experience all the way from the start of the contracting pro...
cess through to the wedding day!
First, communication with Buddy and his team was always fast, efficient, and easy. This can be rare in the wedding planning process, and as a Type A bride who works full-time and did not have as much time to plan as I wanted to, Buddy's fast responses and strong organization made the process easy for me. In the month before the wedding, he was in touch to make sure the schedule and timeline were correct, and the week before the wedding he confirmed driver information.
Experience RI shuttles took our wedding party from the church ceremony to the reception venue, and transported guests between the hotel and reception venue, activities that spanned over 6 hours of the day. The pricing was reasonable, and on the wedding day everything went perfectly.
Buddy was also kind and friendly throughout the process, and other vendors spoke highly of him and the Experience RI company. We would be happy to use their services in the future. Thank you for making our day run so smoothly!

The drivers were on-time, friendly, and professional.

I would recommend them to anyone looking for fast, reasonable, and professional wedding service especially for large groups.
