We also have 15-35 passenger minibuses built by Grech Motors, Battisti Customs, Midwest Automotive Designs, LGE Coachworks, and Tiffany Coach Builders, ideal for wedding transportation at Chapel Grille or daily commuter routes to Warwick. For smaller groups, choose a sprinter van that seats 10-15, or a party bus with room for 10 to 50 people, featuring wraparound seating, hardwood floors, and LED lighting.

Cranston has several convenient locations for charter bus parking and passenger loading. For events at Cranston High School East or West, there are designated bus lanes near the main entrances. Garden City Center allows drop-offs near the gazebo, but long-term parking requires advance approval from property management. Roger Williams Park has multiple lots that can accommodate large vehicles, especially near the zoo and botanical center. Downtown, you can use on-street spaces along Park Avenue or Rolfe Square for quick pick-ups, but be mindful of local traffic patterns. For weddings at Chapel Grille or Alpine Country Club, check with the venue coordinator about where to stage the bus during the ceremony and reception. If you’re heading into Providence, popular spots include the Rhode Island Convention Center garage and surface lots near Kennedy Plaza. Always confirm parking arrangements ahead of time to avoid last-minute hassles.
