A few of the companies we’ve worked with
Classic Elegance at the La Mirada Golf Course
One of the most sought-after venues in the city is the La Mirada Golf Course, located at 15501 Alicante Rd, La Mirada, CA 90638. This venue offers a quintessential California wedding experience with its rolling fairways, mature tree lines, and a dedicated event gazebo that overlooks the lake. It is a favorite among wedding planners for its ability to host both the ceremony and the reception in one stunning location. The Grand Ballroom can accommodate up to 400 guests, making it ideal for large celebrations.
However, managing the arrival of 400 guests can be a logistical challenge. While the venue has parking, a convoy of hundreds of individual cars can lead to congestion at the entrance and delays in the ceremony start time. This is where Charter Bus Rental Company La Mirada steps in. By arranging a shuttle service from nearby hotels or designated pickup points, you ensure that guests arrive in synchronized waves. A 56-passenger motorcoach is perfect for moving large groups efficiently. Your guests can relax in reclining seats, enjoying the air conditioning (a must for California summers), while the driver navigates the local streets. We can organize a loop service that drops guests right at the clubhouse entrance, ensuring high heels don't have to traverse the parking lot and that everyone is seated before the music begins.
Cultural Sophistication at La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts
For couples looking for a venue with dramatic flair and cultural significance, the La Mirada Theatre for the Performing Arts at 14900 La Mirada Blvd, La Mirada, CA 90638 offers a unique backdrop. While primarily a theater, the surrounding plaza and the facility's architecture provide excellent opportunities for engagement photos, first-look sessions, or even unique pre-wedding gatherings. The lush landscaping and modern structures offer a sophisticated aesthetic that differs from the typical garden wedding.
Transporting a wedding party for a photoshoot here requires precision. You don't want the bride and groom waiting for the groomsmen who took a wrong turn on Imperial Highway. A dedicated minibus rental from Charter Bus Rental Company La Mirada keeps the wedding party together. With onboard amenities like WiFi and power outlets, the bridal party can touch up makeup, steam dresses, and stay connected with the planner without draining their phone batteries. The drivers are familiar with the loading zones and layout of the Theatre complex, ensuring that your group is dropped off close to your specific photo location. Whether you are using this space for a rehearsal gathering or just a stop on your photo tour, a private bus ensures the schedule stays on track.
Fun and Festivities at Splash! La Mirada Regional Aquatics Center
Weddings aren't just about the ceremony; they are about the entire weekend experience. For bachelor or bachelorette parties, or for a "day-after" family gathering, Splash! La Mirada Regional Aquatics Center at 13806 La Mirada Blvd, La Mirada, CA 90638 is a fantastic, unconventional destination. Buccaneer Bay offers water slides and a lazy river, perfect for a fun, sun-soaked group outing to blow off steam before the formal events begin. It’s a great way for families from out of town to mingle in a relaxed setting.
Coordinating a group trip to a water park can be chaotic if everyone drives separately. Parking lots get full, and coordinating meetup times can be a nightmare. A charter bus rental simplifies this entirely. Load up the bus with towels, sunscreen, and change of clothes—our buses offer ample overhead storage and undercarriage luggage bays for all your gear. Your group can travel together, perhaps enjoying some pre-party music on the bus's premium sound system. After a long day in the sun, no one wants to drive back to the hotel tired. Let a driver handle the return trip while your guests relax in comfort. It turns a simple outing into a VIP experience for your wedding guests.
Guest Accommodations at Holiday Inn La Mirada
Central to any wedding transportation plan is the hub for guest accommodations. The Holiday Inn La Mirada, located at 14299 Firestone Blvd, La Mirada, CA 90638, is a frequent choice for wedding blocks due to its convenient location near the I-5 freeway and its capacity to handle large groups. As a wedding planner, securing the hotel block is step one; step two is ensuring guests can get from the hotel to the venue without stress. Out-of-town guests may not be familiar with California traffic patterns or may not have rented cars.
Charter Bus Rental Company La Mirada specializes in hotel-to-venue shuttle services. We can establish a recurring shuttle loop that runs between the Holiday Inn and your chosen venue, whether it’s the La Mirada Golf Course or a private estate nearby. This service is invaluable, particularly for weddings with open bars. By providing a shuttle, you are providing a built-in designated driver for every single guest. It enhances safety and allows your guests to fully immerse themselves in the celebration without checking their watches or worrying about navigation. We can customize the shuttle schedule to ensure late-night pickups are available for those who want to stay until the very last dance.
Spiritual Ceremonies at Biola University
For couples seeking a religious ceremony, the chapel at Biola University, located at 13800 Biola Ave, La Mirada, CA 90639, is a landmark institution in the city. The campus grounds are manicured and serene, offering a respectful and beautiful setting for vows. However, university campuses can be confusing to navigate for those who aren't students or alumni. Parking can be restricted, and finding the specific chapel entrance can lead to delays.
A charter bus rental is the ultimate solution for campus weddings. We can coordinate directly with your planner to identify the specific bus loading zones permitted by the university. Instead of guests wandering the campus looking for the right building, a charter bus drops them off steps away from the chapel doors. For the wedding party, a minibus allows for a moment of peace and prayer together before the ceremony begins, isolated from the hustle of the arriving crowd. Charter Bus Rental Company La Mirada ensures that the sanctity and timing of your religious service are respected through punctual and knowledgeable transportation.
Rehearsal Dinners at The Carriage House
While technically just across the border in neighboring Whittier, The Carriage House is a staple for La Mirada weddings due to its proximity and vintage charm. Located conveniently for guests staying in La Mirada, it offers a rustic and warm atmosphere perfect for rehearsal dinners. Often, rehearsal dinners involve a smaller subset of the guest list—family, the wedding party, and close friends. This is the perfect scenario for our 18 to 25-passenger minibus rentals .
Rather than asking your VIPs to carpool or hail rideshares, provide them with a cohesive travel experience. A minibus can pick up the wedding party from the rehearsal venue and transport them directly to dinner. It keeps the group dynamic intact and ensures the evening stays on schedule. The intimacy of a minibus allows for speeches or toasts to begin en route, and the climate-controlled cabin keeps everyone comfortable in their evening attire. It’s a touch of luxury that sets the tone for the wedding weekend.
Scenic Photography at La Mirada Regional Park
La Mirada Regional Park, located at 13701 Adelfa Dr, La Mirada, CA 90638, is a sprawling green space that offers diverse backdrops for wedding photography. From the lake to the rolling hills and tennis courts, it offers variety for creative couples. However, moving a bride in a gown, a groom, bridesmaids, groomsmen, and photographers from one side of a massive park to another—or from the church to the park and then to the reception—is a logistical hurdle.
Charter Bus Rental Company La Mirada removes the friction from this process. A sprinter van or minibus is agile enough to navigate the park's perimeter roads, allowing your photographer to scout locations while the party rests comfortably in the AC. We can store bouquets, props, and change of shoes in the overhead bins, keeping the bus clutter-free for photos. Your driver stays with the vehicle, ensuring it is ready to move the moment the photographer gets the perfect shot. This efficiency is critical on a wedding day when the "golden hour" for lighting waits for no one.
Keeping Guests Entertained at Nearby Knott's Berry Farm
One of the advantages of a wedding in La Mirada is its proximity to major Southern California attractions. Located just minutes away is Knott's Berry Farm at 8039 Beach Blvd, Buena Park, CA 90620. If you are planning a destination wedding with many guests flying in from out of state, offering a group excursion to Knott's Berry Farm is a fantastic way to extend the celebration. It keeps guests entertained during downtime between the rehearsal and the wedding, or serves as a fun post-wedding send-off.
Parking at major theme parks is expensive and navigating the lots can take upwards of an hour. A private charter bus rental from Charter Bus Rental Company La Mirada bypasses these struggles. We can drop your group off at the designated group arrival area, saving your guests time and money. After a day of roller coasters and boysenberry pie, your guests will be grateful for a comfortable, air-conditioned ride back to their La Mirada hotel, allowing them to rest their feet and share photos using the onboard WiFi. It transforms a simple day trip into a coordinated, luxury event.

Frequently Asked Questions About La Mirada Wedding Transportation
How far in advance should I book wedding transportation in La Mirada?
We generally recommend booking your wedding transportation at least 6 to 9 months in advance. La Mirada and the surrounding Southern California region is a busy area for weddings, corporate events , and tourism, especially during the spring and summer months. Booking early ensures that you have access to the widest selection of vehicles, from intimate minibuses to full-size motorcoaches. It also allows us to lock in your pricing and gives you one less thing to worry about as the big day approaches. If your wedding is during a major holiday or local event season, booking even earlier is advisable.
Can we drink alcohol on the charter bus?
Yes, in most cases, you are permitted to consume alcohol on our buses, provided that all passengers are over the legal drinking age of 21. This makes a charter bus an excellent choice for bachelor/bachelorette parties or wedding shuttles where the celebration starts on the road. However, we do require a refundable security deposit for trips involving alcohol to cover any potential cleaning costs. Please inform our reservation specialist at the time of booking if you plan to have alcohol on board so we can ensure the proper policies are in place for your trip.
Do your buses have storage space for wedding decor and luggage?
Absolutely. Our full-size 56-passenger charter buses come equipped with spacious undercarriage luggage bays that are perfect for transporting suitcases for out-of-town guests, large wedding decor, signage, or even coolers. Inside the cabin, there are overhead bins suitable for personal items, garment bags, and smaller favors. If you are renting a minibus, storage space may be more limited, usually restricted to overhead bins. If you have specific equipment or a large volume of items to transport between the ceremony and reception, let our team know so we can recommend the best vehicle size for your cargo needs.
Is the bus driver gratuity included in the quote?
Our quotes typically include the cost of the bus, the driver's time, and fuel. Gratuity is included in the base price unless specifically stated or requested to be added beforehand for billing simplicity. While tipping is discretionary, it is industry standard to tip your driver 10-20% of the rental cost for excellent service. Your driver works hard to ensure your comfort, navigate traffic, and keep your schedule on track, so a gratuity is a wonderful way to show appreciation for their contribution to your special day.
Can the shuttle bus make multiple stops between the hotel and venue?
Yes, flexibility is one of the main advantages of renting with Charter Bus Rental Company La Mirada. We can customize your itinerary to include as many stops as you need. Whether you need to pick up the groomsmen at one location and the bridesmaids at another, or run a continuous shuttle loop between a hotel block and the reception venue, we can make it happen. When you call to book, simply provide us with your desired schedule and locations, and we will build a routing plan that ensures efficient movement for all your guests.
