Couples have many decisions to make regarding their wedding
ceremony and reception. One of those decisions conerns
transportation to and from the special event.
There are many options in wedding transportation. The more
traditional options include renting a car or limousine. The Bridal
Association of America reports that the average couples spends $400
to $500 for an automotive rental. However, prices may vary
depending on geography and the type of vehicle rented.
- Limousine: A limo is one of the most
traditional methods of transport on a couple’s wedding day. A
limousine’s size enables them to carry the bridal party in its
entirety. Because the bride and groom often do not see each other
before the ceremony, two limos may be rented, one larger for the
bridal party, and one smaller for the bride and her parents,
depending on personal preference.
- Classic car: Sports car enthusiasts may want
to make an entrance — and exit — behind the wheel of a sporty
vehicle. These can include a high-end Ferrari or an Aston Martin.
Because of their high purchase price, sports car rentals may carry
a premium.
- Stretch SUV: The traditional limo has morphed
into the stretch SUV of popular models, including the Cadillac
Escalade, Ford Expedition or even a stretch Hummer. Because of
their popularity, these rentals may be snatched up quickly. Be sure
to book well in advance of the big day.
- Party bus: Many couples are leaning toward a
party bus rental, which may be a single- or double-decker bus that
can fit scores of people inside. These are particularly attractive
to couples with a very large bridal party, or those who hope to
begin the celebration even before reaching the reception hall.
- Horse-drawn carriage: Some couples truly want
the fairytale feel on their wedding day. A horse-drawn carriage can
evoke feelings of a Cinderella-type day. The carriage tends to be
best suited to warm weather. For winter weddings, a horse-drawn
sleigh might make a better alternative.
- Motorcycle: Exciting couples may want to ride
off into the sunset on the back of a roadster or sports bike.
- Horses: Horses can haul more than just a
carriage. A bride and groom atop a handsome steed can make for a
memorable wedding transportation option and equally memorable
photos.
- Boat: Individuals getting married by the sea
or another body of water may want to consider attending the
festivities via boat, be it a large vessel or a more intimate canoe
or rowboat.
Wedding day transportation varies depending on each couple’s
preference. Here are some other things to keep in mind concerning
transportation.
- Be sure to have transportation options at the ready for guests
who may have over-indulged on alcoholic beverages.
- Wedding party participants who arrived at the wedding by a limo
or other source will need a ride home somehow.
- Find out if a hotel nearby offers complementary transportation
to and from the reception hall.
