Long Island wedding shuttles and a Bentley

Tran-Star Executive Transportation

Book online and Tran-Star takes 10% off the base rate. That is the one number on its wedding page; hourly rates themselves are quoted by phone. The company says its rate includes everything except parking and tolls, which are billed on top. The fleet runs from a 3-passenger sedan to a 54-passenger coach, and includes a 1960 Bentley S2 for the couple.

Ten percent off for booking online, but the rate is by phone

The wedding page advertises a 10% discount on the base rate for reservations made online. What it does not show is the base rate. Hourly pricing is given over the phone. Our advice is to call first for the quote, then confirm in writing that the online discount applies to the figure you were given. Tran-Star states that its rate includes everything except parking and tolls. On a Long Island wedding run that can mean bridge tolls into the city or a Hamptons lot fee, so ask for an estimate of those too.

From a three-seat sedan to a 54-seat coach

The fleet spans a 3-passenger sedan, wedding party buses, guest shuttles and a 54-passenger coach. There is also a 1960 Bentley S2, which is the vehicle most couples will ask about. Every vehicle is described as carrying a fully stocked bar. Guest shuttles are a named service, which is useful when the ceremony and reception are at different sites or guests are at a hotel block.

A personal wedding coordinator rides along on the booking

Tran-Star assigns a personal wedding coordinator to each wedding booking. The page does not describe what that role covers in hours or scope, so it is worth asking if the coordinator handles day-of timing with your photographer and venue, or simply confirms the reservation. The company also says it coordinates transportation worldwide, which matters mainly for destination guests arriving at the airports.

Ask before you sign

  1. What is the hourly rate for the vehicle we want, and what is the minimum number of hours on a Saturday?
  2. Does the 10% online discount apply to the same quote you gave by phone?
  3. How are parking and tolls calculated and billed after the event?
  4. Is the 1960 Bentley S2 available on our date, and is it priced differently from the rest of the fleet?
  5. What does the personal wedding coordinator actually do on the day?
