subject: Finding The Right Limousine [print this page] If you are involved in a special event such as a wedding, you may want to mark the day with a special vehicle - a limousine. There are different types of limos including a stretch version so consider your occasion and the cars which are available.
There are several factors to consider and this article looks at several. The factors include price, service, reputation and access. Let's look at these in detail.
There is a difference between a birthday, a bachelorette party and a wedding. There are different limos for different occasions. So let's say it's a wedding. The car will feature in many photographs and be the vehicle driving the bride and possibly the couple after the ceremony. You want a limo which looks the part. It may be expensive but this is a major event.
Service is vitally important. You want a friendly, patient and caring driver, someone who understands the nerves of the bride and the importance of her big day. It's essential to hire a limo with a brilliant driver.
Reputation is everything in business and you can check the reputation of a hire company. These days you can do better than reading a brochure or only reading a telephone book. You can go online to see a wide range of available vehicles. You can tell from the testimonials and the length of service of the company just how well respected they are. If you can ask someone who has hired a limo before, you can get an excellent idea of the reputation of the limo company.
Access is also important. How far are you from the limo? Does it need to travel some distance to collect all your passengers. If possible consider the location factor when choosing your limo.
One trap for people who rarely hire a limo is that some companies work mainly with movie stars and wannabe stars. You want a public-friendly company which works with people who want a special car for their special event. There are many companies which specialize in these events. Look for the best deal with one of those companies.
Booking is terribly important. First you should book as early as possible and second, you must get the right date and time. Have this confirmed in writing. There is nothing worse than missing out because you booked too late or because you got the wrong date or time.
If you want a touch of glamour, a limo can provide all that and more.
