To ensure that you, the groom, the bridesmaids and everyone else in the wedding party, arrives at the church on time, follow these six rules:

  1. Don’t book at the last minute

If you want the perfect wedding transport, don’t leave booking until the last minute. Otherwise, you won’t have any chance of arriving in the vehicle of your dreams.

To guarantee that you get the type of car that you want, book no later than six months before the big day. How you are getting to the wedding is important, so booking the vehicles early is a must.

  1. Don’t forget the mother of the bride

When it comes to arranging transport, don’t make the mistake of forgetting the mother of the bride. Even if you only get cars for yourself, the groom and her, it doesn’t matter.

If you don’t book a fancy car to take her to the wedding, you won’t hear the end of it. The mother of the bride likes to feel important, so make sure to book her the perfect mode of transport.

  1. Book a party bus for your guests from out of town

Friends and family who are travelling from out of town to get to your wedding, probably won’t know the area. Make things less stressful for them by hiring transport to get them to the church and reception venue.

A party bus is a great idea for getting your out of town guests from A to B. Just make sure that like any transport, that you book it in advance.

  1. Choose vehicles that match your wedding theme

If you want to be able to include your wedding vehicles in some of the pictures, choosing styles that match your theme are important. It’s also important to ensure that none of the cars that you hire, clash with the shades used in the wedding.

As well as choosing suitable vehicles, you should also discuss decorations with the hire company. When you make your booking, discuss the theme and colors that are being used in the wedding, to ensure that the decorations won’t clash.

  1. Book fancy cars for yourself and the groom-to-be

It’s your special day, so that means that you should be able to have everything that you want. You and the groom-to-be are likely to be nervous, so it’s important to choose transport that will help to relax you.

Whether this includes a car with a chauffeur and champagne on tap, or a fast sports car, it doesn’t matter. If you want to hire a chauffeured car, have a look at the vehicles on offer from Executive Chauffeuring. Or, for a sports car, have a browse online, for all the best deals.

You need to choose the transport that you think will make your big day the most enjoyable and memorable. You only get married once, so make it count by travelling in style.

  1. Make sure to confirm the transport more than once

A few weeks after you have booked your transport, call the company that you have booked with to confirm. Then a couple of months before the wedding, call them again to confirm all the details. It never hurts to double check with these types of things.

Two days before your big day, call the company one last time to ensure that everything is sorted and that the vehicles are set to arrive at the correct time. There is nothing worse than arriving late to the church because your transport didn’t turn up.

Follow these six golden rules, and you can ensure that your wedding travel goes without a hitch.
