Local Motion of Boston

They were very easy to use and were great about getting us a quote and getting back to us promptly. Overall, I think the value was great, I was surpirsed at how economical it was and gratuity was included, which was nice. They did fail to pick guests up at one stop which was disappointing, but that may have been driver error; I found the scheduling and arrangements to be very easy.

Local Motion transported our guests from the hotel in Boston to and from our wedding in Sherborn. Jessy, LM's transportation coordinator, was extremely helpful and responsive throughout the process. Rates were very reasonable compared to other companies. Our driver was punctual and courteous. We would absolutely use Local Motion again.

We were looking for a way to transport 50+ guests to/from our venue (ceremony/cocktail/reception all in one site) - from two hotels, roughly 15 minutes away....to keep our guests from having to worry about getting there, and to prevent drinking and driving.

We looked into limos, coaches, etc...but as our wedding was at a barn (Barn at Gibbet Hill in Groton, MA) - school buses seemed fun & fitting.

I e-mailed for a quote, and within a day heard from Jessy. Over the months, our needs/ideas changed a little bit...and I'd discuss changes with Jessy, and same day - have a new quote.

The price was MORE than fair, we were able to add gratuity right to our AmEx (one less thing to worry about), and the service was quick, efficient, 100% on-time...and certainly affordable.

Weddings are a lot of work...if you need group transportation... definitely consider Local Motion - it will be one less thing to worry about, because they will take care of things without a problem, without any catches, and without any small print.

Thank you Local Motion, and Jessy, for making this part of our wedding so easy to coordinate...and for a fun bus ride as a...

We were very pleased with Local Motion. Both my friends who recently got married also used them (mention your friends and you might get a discount). I had called around and Local Motion was definitely a good deal. We used a 50-passenger school bus (half the price of a coach bus for the same # of seats). Jessy was great and responded pretty promptly and sent the invoice and details over email. I was planning the wedding from out of state and working with Local Motion while not in MA was not a problem at all.

I can't speak to how the driver was (since I wasn't personally on the bus) but I heard no complaints from guests, who all got to the wedding on...

Jessy was so helpful in answering many emails trying to coordinate two buses and multiple locations. The value was the best around, busses were clean and the drivers were on time and professional. Great company and experience.

Everything went smoothly, the driver was on time, flexible, communicative, and courteous throughout the whole thing. Jessy was very quick to respond to my inquiry and helpful with getting me everything I need in a very short period of time. Thank you!

Local Motion provided guest transportation to and from my wedding reception. They were on time, and the driver was polite and courteous. I booked the service with Jessy, who was very responsive, answered all my questions and emails, and helped me through the whole process, so that the evening went without any problems. I am very happy with the service provided by Local Motion and would definitely use them again.

We used Local Motion to have two shuttle buses during our rehearsal dinner and wedding. The company was extremely easy to get in touch with, responsive and had the best rates we could find to rent the buses. The buses were clean and ran smoothly. One of the drivers was awesome, but one of the drivers was less responsive. The issue with him was that he didn't pull up to our wedding venue at the end of the night until someone had to walk over and ask him too, despite the fact that it was past the time we told him our wedding would end and there was a huge crowd gathered outside. Not a big deal at all, but that is the reason why I'm not giving a full 5. I loved Local Motion overall and would use them again in a heartbeat!

Local Motion provided transportation for both our rehearsal dinner and our wedding and they were terrific! Jessy was incredibly helpful in setting everything up and in helping with last minute changes. All of the busses were early, the drivers were polite and friendly, and everything went smoothly. I would definitely recommend local motion!

Local Motion was easy to work with when planning my event. The driver showed up on time on the day of and everyone made it to the venue and back on time which helped to make a stressful day just a little easier. Thank you!

Jessy and her crew at Local Motion were such a delight to work with! No hassle and great service!

Very good service. A little pricey, but did not have to worry at all about them getting to the right places at the right times.

Local Motion of Boston could not have been more pleasant to work with. Their coordinator, Jessy, was helpful and thorough, and their driver was courteous and professional. I would use them again in a heartbeat. THANK YOU!

quick response time! great service transporting my guests after the reception ended to the hotel.

Local Motion was great to work with. It was raining the day of the wedding so the buses really helped keep people dry and on time.

Local Motion of Boston was very responsive when we first contacted them and throughout the planning process. They were so great to work with and on the day of the wedding they were prompt and courteous. They did two trips for us from the hotel to the church and then back to the hotel and managed to get all the guests where they needed to be on time.

I hired 2 coach buses to take my guests from our hotel to the church and back to the reception. Local Motion was very easy to work with and everything went smoothly the day of my wedding.

We rented a medium sized school bus for our wedding party of 25. The company was extremely prompt and accurate in their timing of getting everyone where we needed them to be. The value can't be beat and we loved the fun alternative mode of transpoprtation!

Please do not use this company to provide transportation for your wedding. Our family had a terrible experience in which the Father of the Bride was treated so rudely by one of their drivers that it was an embarrassing experience for many wedding guests who overheard the interaction. An awful ending to an otherwise wonderful day. PLEASE NOTE - I wrote a formal letter to the President of Local Motion and received no response at all from the company.

Mr. Bruce Barrows of Local Motion subsequently contacted me. He offered to write a letter of apology to the Father of the Bride. He said he would address the situation of the rude bus driver. He seemed genuinely sincere. I believe our negative experience won't be repeated for other families in the future. by Jean H. on 11/29/2011

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. We had 3 55-passenger shuttle buses to transport guests to and from the hotels/ceremony/reception/back to the hotels. They were all right on time and the drivers were amazing - specifically, Lenny. On the way to the ceremony, with a bus-load of guests, a jet ski fell off a trailer in front of him and bounced down the road. He went above and beyond to ensure no accident occurred and all our guests were safe. Definitely go with Local Motion for transportation services!

Hands down the worst wedding vendor we used. We had rented two buses to transport our guests from the hotel to the venue where the ceremony and the reception were being held. One of the drivers ran over a curb on their way out of the hotel and per my guests, the bus was never the same. It was making a very unsettling noise and nothing was done about it. I was also told that the one particular driver was driving very fast and was not very cautious.

The day of the wedding, the drivers didn't act as agreed upon and took valuable time away from our wedding. My mother, husband and I spent about a half an hour with the drivers arguing with them on what they needed to do, which had all been previously agreed to. It ended up working out, but the wedding night flies by so quickly that it was a shame that we had to waste such a significant amount of time dealing with the drivers.

After the wedding, I complained to the Company and they told me that they would look into the situation. They never followed up with me.

With the money that you spend on transportation, things like this shouldn't happen.

Never responded to emails, only sent one bus at the end of the night instead of two and then laid on extra time charges. They were the only vendors around with reasonable prices and school buses, but it's not worth the hassle. Stay away!

We used Local Motion for both our wedding and rehearsal dinner. Friendly driver and a clean vehicle. I would def recommend them!

We hired Local Motion to transport our guests from the hotel to the venue and back, a 15 minute drive. We choose the school bus, and the driver was timely and pleasant. They were reasonably priced, and by far one of the most pleasant and professional transportation vendors we dealt with. Highly recommended!

We rented a 50 passenger school bus to transport our guests from the Hotel to the Venue. They were easy to work with when booking and confirming details. The pricing couldn't be beat.
The day of they were on time and got out guests to the ceremony early. At the end of the evening I found the bus driver to be rude. We were running a few minutes behind and the driver was complaining about having to wait for the bride and groom. We offered to pay extra for the extra time and his response was " I don't care I don't make more money" In the end we told him to leave and we drove a guests car back to the hotel.

We rented a School Bus to transport our guests from the Holiday Inn Rockland to Camp Kiwanee and back. Local Motion of Boston provided a clean bus and a courteous driver. They were on time and easy to work with. And they were very reasonably priced. I would hire them again.

Local motion is super easy to work with and very reliable. They have many varieties of transportation options. We went with a school bus both a regular bus and a short bus. We had a great time and the driver was very professional and easy to work with.
