If you’ve ever chatted with a neighbour at the Co-op or waited on the platform at Party Bus Hire in Laurencekirk has become the easy, friendly way to sort transport for a do in town. We know the small things matter here — rail times, roadworks on the A90, and how a short detour past the town centre can save a lot of fuss when you’ve got a group to gather.
When I say Our local service, I mean drivers who know Laurencekirk and the wider Aberdeenshire lanes. We work with trusted operators who’ve driven to Montrose and back after a wedding, taken hens to Stonehaven for the day, and ferried stag groups from Brechin to Banchory without a single missed turn. That experience makes a real difference — you’ll arrive relaxed, on time, and with someone at the wheel who understands local needs.
We’re based with you in mind. From Laurencekirk we routinely serve nearby places like Inverbervie, Montrose, Brechin, Stonehaven and Banchory — and beyond when the event calls for it. If a party starts in Laurencekirk and finishes by the sea in Stonehaven, or you’re planning a round trip to a venue near Banchory, we’ll plan the route so you can enjoy the moment rather than worry about directions.
Choosing the right vehicle is part practicality, part atmosphere. Below you’ll find a clear comparison so you can picture what suits your plans — whether that’s a lively ride for a prom night or a quieter, stylish limo for an anniversary.
Our Small groups (8–20) options are ideal for school proms, intimate hens, or a group of friends heading into Aberdeen for the evening. Comfortable seating, decent sound systems, and a layout that keeps everyone part of the conversation.
If you’ve got a big family party or a stag do filling multiple households, the Large groups (21–50+) buses bring the party to you without splitting the convoy. Plenty of space, luggage room for coats and presents, and professional chauffeurs who handle pickups across several villages.
For something a little more refined — weddings, milestone birthdays, or when you want to step out in style — our Luxury limousines offer that classic feel. They’re quieter, polished, and perfect for a classy entrance at a local hall or hotel.

Safety is quietly important — it’s the bit that lets you relax and enjoy the celebration. All our drivers are vetted, insured, and familiar with local regulations. When we book a vehicle we check licences, insurance and the operator’s history so you don’t have to. If you’re thinking about late-night pickups after a ceilidh or an early start for a wedding, tell us — we’ll plan sensible pickup windows and rest breaks.
Booking with us is meant to feel straightforward and neighbourly. Whether you drop us a message through our contact page, call, or browse the fleet online, we’ll walk you through availability, pick-up spots around Laurencekirk, and any special requests — like making a stop in Montrose for photos or routing via Stonehaven’s coast for a scenic drive.
We’re used to the regulars — proms, hens and stags, weddings — and the unexpected extras: children’s parties where parents travel in convoy, corporate outings, and surprise birthday runs into Aberdeen. It’s all local life; we take pride in making those moments easy and memorable.
People often ask about timing, routes, and whether we can collect from multiple spots — and the simple answer is yes. If you’d like a detailed route that starts in Laurencekirk, picks someone up in Inverbervie, and heads on to Montrose, we’ll plan it so the group stays together and the timing feels natural. If you want to see more details about our vehicles and policies, pop over to our terms and policies or the fleet page for photos and full specs.
We’re part of this community. That means we care about arriving on time for your event, leaving venues tidy, and doing right by local businesses and neighbours. If you want to talk through options for a family gathering, a school prom, or a big night out in Aberdeen, we’re here — happy to offer honest advice and find the right vehicle without fuss. Pop a message or give us a ring; let’s have a proper chat over a cup of tea about how a party bus can fit into your plans.
