Black Tie Transportation

05/07/2024

We started this business more than two years ago after hearing from so many people that they wished there were other group transportation options than just a party bus in town.

In our time here we have driven many of you through holiday light shows, hosted many surprise birthday parties, intimate date nights, gaggles of prom goers, and even driven you home after tying the knot on one of the most special days of your life. We became tradition for some of you, and we are so thankful for the support and love we have been shown here.

However, running a small business isn't always easy and sometimes loving what you do just isn't sustainable. We unfortunately have made the bittersweet decision to sell the limousines and close the business.

Thanks for the memories.

Tonight we got to celebrate a (surprise) retirement party!

After many years working at the Court House it was time to relax and let loose!

After getting everyone together we stopped st the top of Snake Alley for some pictures, down to the riverfront Gazebo for some reminiscing and then to Corked 101 to start the party off!

A glass of bubbly there before we whisked this happy group to get dinner together at Queso's!

The only thing we love more than celebrating with our clients is supporting local businesses. Tonight we got the pleasure of doing both!

Watch out for us again downtown this weekend for another trip!

This weekend we had a very VIP client, Mr. Nolan!

You only turn 10 once!

We transported him and 10 of his best friends from the Y to Crapo Park for some fun before a trip downtown and home for cake!

We love helping make birthdays extra special!

We want to thank all the groups that enjoyed the holidays with us! We had a record number of bookings for this December, many of which are not pictured here!

Earlier this week we had the pleasure of taking this family to Martini's for an 18th birthday celebration!

Between trips we stopped over to pay our yearly insurance premiums. Black Tie is proudly insured by Hazel Agencies.

If you're looking for stylish, professional transportation, look no further.

“🎉 Had an incredible night with Balck Tie Transportation for our Bachelorette Party on Saturday! 🚗💨 Our driver, Blade, was simply amazing! 😄 He was upbeat, kind, and made the experience absolutely fantastic! If we ever rent a limo again, we'll definitely request him! Can't say enough good things about him! 🌟”
