A few of the companies we’ve worked with

Seamless Shuttles to South Willamette Valley Wineries

Eugene is the gateway to the South Willamette Valley, a region world-renowned for its Pinot Noir and breathtaking vineyard landscapes. Venues like King Estate Winery (80854 Territorial Hwy, Eugene, OR 97405) and Sweet Cheeks Winery (27007 Briggs Hill Rd, Eugene, OR 97405) offer fairytale backdrops for ceremonies and receptions. However, these venues are often located on winding rural roads, 30 to 45 minutes outside of the city center. Asking guests to navigate unfamiliar, unlit country roads after a night of celebration can be a recipe for stress—and safety concerns. A private wedding shuttle service from Charter Bus Rental Company Eugene is the perfect solution. We can set up a continuous loop or a scheduled pick-up and drop-off service from downtown hotels directly to the vineyard gates.

When you rent a charter bus for your vineyard wedding, you aren’t just providing a ride; you are providing a guest experience. Your friends and family can relax in reclining seats, enjoy the panoramic views of the valley through large windows, and utilize onboard amenities like WiFi to share photos of the ceremony instantly. Plus, with a driver at the wheel, everyone can enjoy the local wines responsibly. We can accommodate any size guest list, from intimate gatherings requiring a single sprinter van to massive celebrations needing a fleet of motorcoaches. Let us handle the driving while you handle the memories.

Downtown Eugene Wedding Transportation & Guest Logistics

For couples who prefer the urban energy of the city, Downtown Eugene offers incredible venues and lodging options. If you are hosting your reception at the Graduate Eugene (66 E 6th Ave, Eugene, OR 97401) or the historic McDonald Theatre (1010 Willamette St, Eugene, OR 97401), parking can be a premium and traffic can be tricky during Duck game days or local festivals. Charter Bus Rental Company Eugene can provide seamless transfers between ceremony sites—perhaps a beautiful service at the St. Mary Catholic Church (1062 Charnelton St, Eugene, OR 97401)—and your downtown reception venue. We ensure that your timeline stays intact, moving guests efficiently so the photography session and cocktail hour never overlap unintentionally.

Downtown shuttles are also vital for moving guests between their accommodations and the festivities. We frequently work with major hotels like the Inn at the 5th (205 E 6th Ave, Eugene, OR 97401) and the Hyatt Place Eugene/Oakway Center (333 Oakway Rd, Eugene, OR 97401). Instead of your guests relying on surge-priced rideshares or getting separated in multiple vehicles, a dedicated shuttle keeps everyone together. We can even create custom placards for the buses so your guests know exactly which ride is theirs. It is this level of detail and care that makes Charter Bus Rental Company Eugene the top choice for wedding logistics in Lane County.

Bachelor and Bachelorette Parties in the Whit

Before the rings are exchanged, there is usually a party to be had! Eugene’s Whiteaker neighborhood (affectionately known as "The Whit") and the surrounding brewery district is the perfect playground for bachelor and bachelorette parties. Instead of worrying about who will be the designated driver or trying to coordinate five different cars, book a luxury minibus or party bus from Charter Bus Rental Company Eugene. We can take your group on a customized brewery tour, hitting local favorites like Ninkasi Brewing Company (272 Van Buren St, Eugene, OR 97402), Oakshire Brewing (2052 W 1st Ave, Eugene, OR 97402), and ColdFire Brewing (263 Mill St, Eugene, OR 97401).

A private bus rental allows the party to start the moment you step onboard. With premium sound systems, comfortable seating, and plenty of room to socialize, the travel time becomes part of the fun. Whether you are planning a laid-back afternoon tasting hops or a high-energy night out on the town, the drivers will ensure you get to every stop on time. We can also facilitate transportation for other pre-wedding activities, such as a spa day at Pearl Day Spa (1375 Pearl St, Eugene, OR 97401) or a golf outing at the prestigious Eugene Country Club (255 Country Club Rd, Eugene, OR 97401). Whatever your itinerary, we have the vehicle to match.

Rehearsal Dinner Transport at 5th Street Public Market

The rehearsal dinner sets the tone for the entire wedding weekend, and in Eugene, there is no better place to host it than the vibrant 5th Street Public Market (296 E 5th Ave, Eugene, OR 97401). With upscale dining options like Marché (296 E 5th Ave, Eugene, OR 97401) offering French-inspired cuisine using local ingredients, it’s a favorite for wedding parties. However, parking in this popular district can be difficult, especially for large groups arriving all at once. Charter Bus Rental Company Eugene can provide a sleek, efficient shuttle to transport your wedding party and immediate family from their hotels to the dinner and back.

This service is particularly helpful if you have many out-of-town guests who are unfamiliar with Eugene’s one-way streets and layout. By providing transportation to the rehearsal dinner, you are welcoming them with hospitality and ease. It allows the families of the bride and groom to mingle and bond on the ride over, breaking the ice before the meal even begins. We can arrange for a minibus that fits 18-25 passengers perfectly for these intimate yet important gatherings, ensuring that your VIPs are treated like royalty from the very start of the festivities.

Scenic Photo Shoots and Day Trips for Guests

Often, wedding guests travel from far and wide to attend your special day, and they may want to explore the natural beauty that makes Oregon so famous. As a wedding planner or thoughtful host, organizing a group day trip is a fantastic way to enhance their experience. Charter Bus Rental Company Eugene can take your group on a stunning excursion to the McKenzie River or a hike up Mount Pisgah Arboretum (34901 Frank Parrish Rd, Eugene, OR 97405) for breathtaking panoramic photos. The lush greenery and sweeping vistas provide the perfect backdrop for bridal party portraits or a "morning-after" group hike.

For those looking for a coastal escape, we offer day-trip charters to the Oregon Coast, just over an hour away. Imagine transporting your guests to see the Sea Lion Caves or the dunes in Florence comfortably in a climate-controlled motorcoach. We can also facilitate trips to the Cascades Raptor Center (32275 Fox Hollow Rd, Eugene, OR 97405) for a unique wildlife experience. With Charter Bus Rental Company Eugene, you aren't limited to just the wedding venue; the entire Pacific Northwest becomes accessible for you and your guests to enjoy without the hassle of rental cars and navigation apps.

Reliable Airport Transfers at Eugene Airport (EUG)

For destination weddings or events with a high volume of out-of-state attendees, managing arrivals and departures is a critical logistical hurdle. Eugene Airport (28801 Douglas Dr, Eugene, OR 97402), while convenient, is located about 15 to 20 minutes from downtown. Relying on guests to find their own cabs or rideshares can lead to delays and confusion. Charter Bus Rental Company Eugene offers dedicated airport shuttle services to streamline this process. We can monitor flight arrivals and have a bus waiting to whisk your guests away to their hotels immediately upon landing.

We can organize a "meet and greet" service where the drivers assist guests with their luggage and guide them to the waiting vehicle. This is especially useful for transporting elderly relatives or families with young children who might find navigating a new city stressful. Whether you need a single pickup for the bridal party or a rotating shuttle service for guests arriving throughout the day, our team will build a schedule that works flawlessly. Start the wedding weekend off on the right foot with prompt, courteous, and comfortable airport transportation.
