Top Tips - things to think about when booking a wedding car

1) Always, always see wedding cars before you book. We’re happy to invite you to our showroom or to see you at wedding fayres . Have a sit in, and really understand what you’ll be booking

2) Think about your dress/outfit and your comfort in the car. We’ll be happy to advise and to show you suitable cars, but please consider the style of your outfit and how this may impact the car that you choose. You’ll be able to do this when you see the cars in person

3) Think about the journey you’ll make and who’ll be in the wedding cars. Again, we’ll help to advise, but it’s important that you think about where the pick up points are and exactly who you’d like to be in the wedding cars. Also, think about asking a relative or friend to take any large bags or luggage as wedding cars typically have little storage space (plus – think of the photo’s!)

4) Think about timing – be realistic. We’ll help you plan a route and timing but consider what you’d like. It may be that you need 2 cars in order to get the wedding party to the locations in the right order and on time. You may have a specific request about the route we take

5) With open top cars – think HAIR! On longer routes or if the weather isn’t perfect, we’ll often suggest that part of the journey is completed with the “hood” up. This isn’t always required, but on some occasions you’ll be thankful!

Top Tips - things to ask wedding car companies when booking a car

1) Ask if the company has public liability insurance. There are many “hobbyist” wedding car owners out there that do not operate as a proper business. One easy way to sort through these is to check for insurance. It’s an expensive cost. You can see ours on the wall of our showroom

2) Before you book – understand their contingency plans. We know how important your wedding day is so we have plans in place to ensure everything goes smoothly – even if we suffer from rare unforeseeable problems. For example, we have a fully prepared wedding car and professional uniformed chauffeur on standby – just in case and to ensure that we provide a 1st class service in every circumstance

3) Ask if you get exclusive use of the car – understand what you’re paying for. Our wedding car hire policy is that we only book one car, per wedding, per day. This means that the car is not double booked and our service is focussed on your wedding day only. Make sure you get a clear understanding of what you’ll get from other companies. Some firms have small fleets and will try to make as much money as they can during the key wedding season. This will also help you compare "like for like" as some companies have hidden additional costs

4) Ask how the company will prepare for your wedding day. Once we have secured you booking and understand your requirements we’ll plan our chauffeur’s schedules. Each chauffeur will get a full briefing and undergo a “dry run” of the route prior to each wedding. We’ll also check for any disruption on the roads or any plans for roadworks. Our cars are prepared a couple of days before the wedding to ensure they’re in tip top condition. Nothing is left to chance to ensure we give you a 1st class service

5) Ask if you can speak to satisfied customers. We try to keep details of some customers that agree to provide testimonials of our service. We don’t pay for this. We just believe that if we provide a good service, that people are willing to provide an honest recommendation. They were once in your shoes planning a wedding and trying to find the best suppliers so they know how you feel

Remember - the planning of a wedding is part of the fun so enjoy it!
