Wedding transportation is one of those details nobody notices when it goes right — and everybody remembers when it doesn't. The good news: with a clear plan, it's one of the easiest parts of the day to get right. This checklist covers what Toronto couples should decide, and when.
1. Book early
Saturdays from May to October are the busiest dates of the year for luxury limo service in Toronto. Once your venue and ceremony times are set, reserve your vehicles. You can book as far ahead as you need, and adjust the details closer to the date.
2. Choose the right vehicles
- Stretch limousine — seats 6. The classic choice for the couple, or the couple with the wedding party, and the backdrop for many of your photos.
- Cadillac Escalade SUV — seats 6. A modern, elegant option, and practical if you're carrying dresses, bouquets or luggage for the honeymoon.
- Mercedes Sprinter van — seats up to 11. Ideal for bridesmaids and groomsmen, or for shuttling family between the ceremony and the reception.
- Mercedes C300 or Lincoln Town Car — seats 4. Perfect for parents or grandparents, or a quiet exit at the end of the night.
Compare them side by side in our guide to choosing the right vehicle.
3. Build the timeline
Most wedding transportation is booked by the hour, so the car and chauffeur stay with you between stops. Write down every movement:
- Pickup for getting ready (home or hotel)
- Ceremony arrival — aim to arrive 10–15 minutes early
- Photo locations (the Distillery District, the waterfront, a park or a city landmark)
- Reception arrival
- Final drop-off at the end of the night
Add travel time between each stop, plus a buffer for photos that run long — they always do. Our hourly chauffeur guide explains how hourly bookings work.
4. Plan for your guests
Out-of-town guests arriving at Pearson or Billy Bishop can be met at arrivals with a name sign and taken straight to their hotel. On the day, a Sprinter shuttle between the hotel, the ceremony and the reception keeps everyone together and off the roads after the celebration. See our group transfer guide.
5. Tell your chauffeur the details
- Exact addresses, including the right entrance at each venue
- A day-of contact (your planner or a trusted friend, not the couple)
- Any special requests — music, a quiet moment between stops, a specific photo spot
- Child seats for young family members (free on request)
6. Confirm the week before
Check your confirmation email against the final timeline, and call us if anything has changed. Free cancellation applies up to 24 hours before pickup.
