How many buses for wedding guests
Wedding transport is two questions: how many seats you need at once, and how many times each vehicle can go round before the function starts. The seat counts below come from the vehicle catalog and the fares from the same fare engine as every fare table on the site, with their date.
For 200 guests in one go, the catalog's seat counts give 3 × AC Coach 50–56 seater + 1 × Mini Bus 28–35 seater (203 seats), ₹63,800–83,400 for a day as of Oct 2026. With 2 shuttle rounds, 1 × AC Coach 50–56 seater + 1 × AC Coach 40–49 seater is enough.
Guests to vehicles, everyone in one go
The fewest vehicles that seat everyone at once, then the fewest empty seats, from the catalog's seat counts.
| Guests | Vehicles | Seats | One day of the fleet (as of Oct 2026) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 25 | 1 × Tempo Traveller 20–26 seater | 26 | ₹7,900–10,000 |

Shuttle timing
One round
Load at the hotel, drive to the venue, unload, drive back. Its length is the loading time plus twice the drive.
Rounds that fit
Take the time from the first departure to when the last guest must arrive, subtract one load and one drive, divide by the length of a round and add one.
Fewer vehicles, more waiting
Two rounds halve the fleet, but the second group leaves later. Send elders, the couple's families and anyone in heavy clothes in the first round.
Both ways
Guests go back after the function too. The planner counts every round there and back, and the km each vehicle runs.
Booking it
Post as soon as the dates are fixed
Many families in a city share the same auspicious dates, so vehicles go early. On Yippigo one post reaches up to 6 verified operators near the pickup, and you compare itemised quotes.
One quote for the whole fleet
Ask each operator to quote every vehicle and every day together, with waiting time, night allowance and parking shown.
Keep spare seats
Plan with a few empty seats in each vehicle for elders, children and bags.
A contact for each vehicle
Give each driver the name and number of a family member travelling in it, and the venue's parking plan.
The baraat
Its own vehicles
The groom's side travels together at a fixed time; give it its own vehicles instead of the guest shuttle.
Waiting time
A baraat vehicle waits through the procession and the ceremony. Agree the waiting hours and the return time on the quote.
