Danbury wedding transportation
Would definitely recommend. Used First Student to transport guests to and from local hotels to the wedding venue.The driver was on-time and was familiar with the area and many of my guests commented on the driver's professional and accommodating manner. Additionally, First Student was far less expensive than other bus services for a similar event.

Fantastic service
Fantastic service. We utilized First Student for guest transportation for our wedding. We scheduled the first return pickup for 9:30pm with subsequent shuttles departing later. At about 10:15pm we realized we would need the other shuttles sooner than the original pickup time. I called the day of contact, they immediately picked up and got in touch with the drivers and dispatched them to pickup asap. They were at our location within a half hour ready to pickup.
The drivers were all very professional & courteous. I would highly recommend their services.

Looks forward to it. I would have liked communication from the bus driver so we could have made sure they had extra masks for riders. We are so appreciative of the support from first student to keep our citizens safe.
