As you plan your perfect day, you need to consider your transportation. If you have planned an elegant wedding day with several attendants, the car service that will probably come to mind is limousine. Whether your wedding party is large or small, a limousine is a great option.
Extravagant or economical, there is a package, size and color for every want or need. Other transportation choices may be a horse-drawn carriage, a vintage car, a party bus or your Uncle Louie’s tractor and wagon. Whatever your choice, make it special and memorable for the most anticipated day of your life.
As with any big decision, there are concerns to weigh. The weather may be an issue if your choice of transportation is open air; have a back-up plan in place in case of rain. Also, make sure that you choose a reputable company to provide your transportation. Your next-door neighbor or a friend of a friend may have a limousine or vintage car they are willing to rent inexpensively, but if they don’t show up, don’t have the proper licensing or insurance, you could be setting yourself up for disappointment and frustration. Before booking your ride, do a little homework. Talk with friends and family as to what they have seen, heard, or used. Many companies are rated with the Better Business Bureau. Go online or call them for more information. Ask to see the limousine, car or buggy. Most owners and companies are very willing to show off their rides.
Limousines have become the most popular type of wedding transportation over the past decade. They are usually beautiful and provide a safe alternative to driving, especially if you have chosen to have any type of alcoholic beverage before or after your ceremony. Once a car is chosen for you and the wedding party, it's time to think about your guests.
Wedding-guest transportation is a newer trend, but has become more and more popular. Many brides and grooms are now considering how to get out-of-town guests to and from the ceremony and reception sites. Sometimes out-of-town guests have difficulty finding the reception hall. Also, if you are serving alcoholic beverages to your guests, making sure they get back to the hotel or motel safely is a wonderful idea and will give you and your parents peace of mind. Several local bus or tour companies can provide you with economical mode of transportation.
Whether you have chosen a limousine, car, buggy or tractor and wagon, you can choose from a full-day package or just a ride from the church to the reception – a nice feature that can be arranged far in advance or as a last-minute detail. Whichever you choose on your special day, remember to sit back and enjoy the ride.
