Wedding
Transportation
The groomsmen are dressed in black tuxedos
with tails and top hats. The mother of the bride and
the grandmother of the groom have delicate orchid
corsages. The wedding starts in less than one hour.
It is time to get rolling literally. What kind
of transportation will you depend on to get you to
the ceremony on time?
Traditional Transportation. Black,
white, or gray limousines are the most popular form
of transportation for the bridal party. The average
limo can seat six to eight people. A stretch limo
can seat as many as twelve people. Fun and roomy,
limos are a great way to transport large wedding parties
to the ceremony and the reception.
Time Restrictions. Remember to reserve
your limos at least six months in advance. If you
prefer a specific color, let the transportation provider
know before you sign any contracts. If there are proms,
funerals, or other weddings during your wedding week,
some colors may be hard to come by. If the colored
limo adds to the whimsy or classic beauty of your
ceremony, it is worth reserving early.
The Little Extras. Check out the
car in person, and find out what luxury items are
included in the price. If the champagne and strawberries
are not included, you might want to consider springing
for that little something extra for your attendants.
Budget Basics. Expect to pay about
$50 per hour for the sleek elegance of a limousine.
Also prepare for a 15 to 20 percent gratuity. Before
signing a contract with the rental service, find out
if the company offers discounts for multiple-car rentals.
Limousines are one of the most popular modes of transportation
for the bridal party. Sleek and elegant limos lend
a romantic charm to every wedding. If it is a fairy
tale wedding you have always dreamed of, climb inside
and let your driver whisk you away.
