A happy couple is finalizing the details for their wedding in Denver. Their reception is located across the city from the church where they’ll be married.

The Sporting Event Shuttle
A group of 25 Broncos fans want to see a game at Empower Field at Mile High, but don’t want to bother with parking and finding a DD for their tailgate before the big game. They book a charter bus rental through Arvada Charter Bus Company to transport them to the stadium and home. They schedule their bus rental to pick them up at 5 p.m. so they can enjoy the pre-game fun for several hours before their 8 p.m. kick-off.
Their reservation specialist books them a 25-passenger minibus at a total cost of $1,080 ($135/hour x 8 hours), including drop-off and pick-up service at the stadium. They tip their driver 10% after the game, bringing their total to $1,188 or $47.50 per person.
The Brewery Tour
A craft beer enthusiast named Alex has planned a tour for a group of his friends to visit breweries across Colorado. Their group includes 40 members who will need private transportation to breweries in Denver, Golden, Fort Collins, and Boulder. They’ve mapped out a 2-day itinerary with overnight stays in Golden, so they’ll need to book a bus that can accommodate them all and their overnight luggage.
