FROM SWEET 16 TO
YOUR 80TH ANNIVERSARY.

Birthday and celebration transportation is hourly with vehicle-specific minimums. The most-booked configuration depends on the celebration type. Friend-group night out (Sweet 16, 21st, 25th): 14-passenger Sprinter for 5 hours = $825. Couple anniversary or milestone dinner: Premium SUV for 4 hours = $440. Family milestone (decade birthday with grandparents): Sprinter for 5-6 hours = $825-990. Quinceañera full-day weekend: Sprinter or mini coach for 8-10 hours = $1,320-2,650. All flat-rate, no surge on Saturdays.

Yes. Quinceañera is one of our most-booked family celebration services. Standard Quinceañera transportation is a 14-passenger Sprinter or 24-passenger mini coach for 8 to 10 hours covering the religious ceremony (Catholic Mass), photography session, family dinner reception, and traditional dance reception (Vals, Padre/Hija dance, Cambio de Zapatos). We coordinate multi-stop pickups across extended family addresses, hotel-block transportation for out-of-town family, and post-reception returns. Multi-vehicle Quinceañera bookings (Sprinter for the Court of Honor + Mini Coach for guests) are common. Spanish-speaking driver coordination available — let us know at booking.

Yes. Sweet 16 transportation typically follows a friend-group pattern: multi-stop pickups across 6-12 friends' homes, dinner reservation, party venue or activity (laser tag, escape room, downtown nightlife for older Sweet 16s), and late-night returns to homes. Most-booked configuration: 14-passenger Sprinter for 5-6 hours = $825-990. We are professional transportation, not a party-bus operator. Booking parents receive real-time confirmation messages as the vehicle progresses through pickups, drop-offs, and final returns.

21st birthday transportation typically follows a bar-crawl or restaurant-crawl pattern: dinner, multiple bar stops, late-night returns. The 21st is the first legal-drinking-age celebration, so dry-transport policy is important — alcohol consumption in our vehicles is not permitted (RCW 46.61.519), but everything you do at each stop is yours. Most-booked: 14-passenger Sprinter for 6 hours = $990. Late-night surcharge ($15/hr) typically applies for 1-2 hours after 11 PM. Pre-arranged routing only — drivers don't accept ad-hoc bar changes mid-ride.

Yes. Surprise party coordination requires careful timing and a designated secret-keeper. Typical configuration: pickup the birthday person at home or restaurant under a cover story, transport to surprise venue, return home post-party. We coordinate with the booking person (the secret-keeper) — communications go to them, not the surprise recipient. The driver knows to maintain the cover story until the moment of arrival. Standard SUV for 3-4 hours = $330-440 for couple-only surprises; Sprinter for friend-group surprises = $660-825.

Yes. Decade milestone birthdays are some of our most-booked celebration services. The pattern depends on the audience. Adult-friend decade celebrations (30, 40, 50): friend-group Sprinter for dinner + activity, 5-6 hours = $825-990. Family milestone celebrations (60, 70, 80): multi-generational Sprinter or mini coach with grandparent accessibility, 6-8 hours = $990-2,120. Anniversary celebrations follow the same patterns. We coordinate hotel-block transportation when out-of-town family attends.

Yes. Family milestone celebrations frequently involve elderly family members. Our SUVs and Sprinter vans accommodate passengers with mobility aids; some Sprinters offer wheelchair accessibility (advance notice required at booking). We can plan a routing that prioritizes accessible drop-off zones at venues. Notify us at booking if you'll have wheelchair, scooter, or limited-mobility passengers — this affects vehicle selection and timing.

Most birthday and celebration bookings need 2 to 4 weeks ahead. Quinceañera celebrations require 6 to 8 weeks lead time, especially for the 14-passenger Sprinter and 24-passenger mini coach. Saturday-night celebrations in popular months (May graduation overlap, October-December holiday party season) book first. Last-minute bookings (under 1 week) are sometimes possible for sedans and SUVs but not guaranteed for Sprinters or coaches.

Standard event cancellation policy applies. Full refund of deposit if canceled 30+ days before booking date. 50% refund of deposit between 14 and 29 days. No refund within 14 days. Date changes are accommodated case-by-case when feasible. For Quinceañera and large multi-vehicle family bookings (60+ days advance booking), we follow the wedding cancellation policy: 60+ days = full refund, 30-59 days = 50% refund, under 30 days = no refund.

No. Seattle Shuttle operates a strict dry-transport policy across all bookings, including 21+ celebrations. Alcohol consumption is not permitted in any of our vehicles. Open containers of alcohol in motor vehicles are prohibited under Washington State law (RCW 46.61.519). For 21+ birthday celebrations, this means no drinks in transit between bar/restaurant stops — but everything you do at each stop is yours. Our drivers are trained to address policy violations during the ride.
