For many people, their wedding day is the only time they will ever get to ride in a vintage car
. Thats why vintage wedding cars are so popular. When else would you get the chance to ride out in a perfect Rolls Royce, its gleaming carriage work and shining leather bowling you along in genuine style to the destination of your dreams?
The thing is, weddings are supposed to be the happiest day of your life. That means pulling out all the stops and letting yourself live like royals for the day. Your choice of wedding cars doesnt so much say something about you: it says something about the carefree nature of the whole event. Here are some top tips for choosing vintage wedding cars.
Stick and pick to a budget. No matter how titillating a machine that extra hundred quid might buy you, if you spend it what else will you have to cut back on? You have as much as you have, so never allow your head to be turned by anything that goes over the amount you have set aside for your day.
Remember how many people you will be transporting. The finest vintage wedding cars in the world are useless to you if they cannot hold the number of people that you need them to. Work out how many bridesmaids will be going with you to the church, and who will be coming back in what.
Contact the company that is providing the wedding cars well in advance. Vintage vehicles can be booked up to a year ahead of time, sometimes longer.
Talk to the wedding cars supplier about the minutiae of your day. Where will the company be happy to pick the bridal party up from? Is champagne included or extra? How long do you have the car for? Will the driver take the bride and groom away for a 20 minute break on their own before they go onto the reception?
The fewer of these questions your vintage wedding cars provider is willing to answer with a yes, or some kind of accommodating answer, the less time you should spend looking at them. There are hundreds of companies that supply wedding cars in or to your area and plenty of them will provide the exact service you want for the price you have in mind. Dont be afraid to turn someone down and go with a company that suits you better. Remember its the happiest day of your life. And that means doing things your way.
Vintage wedding cars are a truly wonderful way to get taken to and from the most important moment of your life to date. So do it in style!
