5 Things to Consider When Hiring Wedding Cars

Wedding day planning is notorious for its stressful nature, with brides and grooms often feeling pressurised to get everything right and within budget.

This is certainly the case when it comes planning wedding cars, with happy couples needing to find vehicles that tick all the boxes. Below, we share a few things couples need to consider during the wedding car planning process. So, if you are at that stage where you are looking to reserve your vehicles, read on.

Size of the vehicle

When talking about wedding cars, size really does matter! In our experience, the bigger the wedding car, the better. This is because most brides tend to have large dresses, with the comeback of the meringue dress only heightening the need for roomy wedding car cabins. Also, groomsmen will want to arrive with their suit crisp and creaseless, meaning bunching up in the backseat like sardines in a can just isn’t an option.

Length of hire

While you may have a strict itinerary mapped out for your wedding day, the truth is, things don’t always run like clockwork. From photographers needing more time to get that ‘perfect’ shot to speeches running on a little longer than expected, having a wedding day timeline is pretty pointless. And, the last thing you need is your chauffeur driver having to leave the venue before you are ready to go. This is why you should think carefully when deciding on the length of hire. Put it this way, you are much better off hiring your wedding cars for too long rather than not long enough.

Colours

The colour of your wedding car will have a big impact on the look and feel of your big day. Where gleaming white limos represent modernity, burgundy chauffeur cars will give your wedding day a more vintage/classic vibe. Below are the top wedding car colours we receive requests for:

White
Black
Burgundy
Blue
Red
Pink

However, we have been known to hire out bright green and yellow Lamborghinis for the more daring of brides and grooms!

Ribbons and flowers

Many choose to adorn their wedding cars with ribbons and flowers, ensuring all other road users are fully aware that their cars are being used for a wedding celebration. If this is something you would like for your wedding day, be sure to make this apparent when reserving your vehicles!

Photography

Though commonly referred to as the most important day of your life, your wedding day will feel like it is over in a flash. This is why so many brides and grooms want professional photos taken, allowing them to look back on their special day and relive all of those memories. Here at Limo Broker, we see most of our wedding customers request photographs with their limos and chauffeur cars, using them as visually stunning props to pose next to. So, when reserving your cars, think how you can photograph them before signing off on a quote.
