Vintage car hire for a truly memorable Wolverhampton wedding

Thursday, March 25th, 2010

Hiring a car for your wedding day can be fraught with difficulty, usually due to the bride and groom wanting completely different things! Everyone knows that a wedding day is all about what the bride wants, but it doesn’t mean you can’t keep him happy with whatever sporty, sleek number he has his eye on and still have time to choose a beautiful vintage wedding car for yourself and your bridesmaids.

Vintage wedding cars are perfect for your special day. They have that timeless, sophisticated look that you just don’t get with flashy modern vehicles. Wolverhampton wedding car hire means you and your select entourage can make your way to and from the venue comfortably, whilst also making the classiest entrance possible. Just make sure your wedding photographer takes plenty of shots of you and your new spouse by the car!

What types of vintage wedding cars can I choose from?

• Daimler Limousine – With a capacity of seven, you can have as many people as you like with you for moral support on the big day. This vehicle is elegant and spacious enough to accommodate more voluminous wedding dresses.
• 1930s Beauford Tourer – Available in either silver or white, this car is truly unique and looks fabulous with the top down! More fun than other stately – looking vehicles, you and three close friends or family can travel in style and comfort on your wedding day.

Why wedding cars are so important

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

There’s nothing better than arriving at your big day in the most beautiful car you have ever seen. All eyes will be on you and your perfect day will begin in style.

Your wedding day should be the most special day of your life. You are finally committing to the person you love and agreeing to spend the rest of your life with them.

So much effort will have gone into deciding on the wedding dress, the catering and of course that special cake. But it is the wedding car which is of ultimate importance.

As the wedding cars turn the corner to stop outside your wedding venue, this is the first glimpse your guests will have of you. So you need to be sitting in a special car; one that really gets the day off to a good start.

No matter what type of wedding you have opted for; whether it is a traditional church wedding or a more modern ceremony, you will really add that touch of class by arriving in a beautiful car. Choose Bentley hire if you are hoping for a classic and elegant atmosphere. Or you could opt for limo hire if your day is going to be a little more glamorous and modern.

No matter which car you choose to hire, just ensure that it gets those heads turning. After all, it’s your special day so you deserve to be centre of attention.

Plan ahead and hire vintage wedding cars for your big day

Friday, February 26th, 2010

The run-up to an impressive wedding can be a frenzy of planning activity. No one realises how much work goes into producing a dream wedding out of thin air until they start to plan their own big day.

However, there are ways that you can simplify things and get all the major decisions out the way at the start. A key consideration is always transport, but many people leave this until the very last minute. If you want to hire vintage wedding cars or even hummer limos, you need to make the following decisions and then take the plunge and get it booked.

How many people do you need to transport?
This is the most important thing to consider. You need to take the time to sit down and work out exactly how many people – bridesmaids, groomsmen, family of the bride and groom- will need ferrying about throughout the whole day. If there’s a lot, you could consider hiring a couple of limos rather than a number of smaller vehicles.

The weather – This is equally important, but also very hard to predict! Only go for open-topped cars if you’re confident it won’t rain, but a good compromise would be wedding cars with detachable hoods.

There is nothing quite as stunning as arriving at your wedding in a classic vintage wedding car. Every bride dreams about her wedding day. It is one day in her life that she has complete control over the event. The planning and preparation for a wedding can take many years and everything should run like clockwork. The church and venue are chosen, the bridesmaids and best man are dressed to impress and day will be one you will remember for the rest of your life.

How can I find the right wedding car?

Choosing the right type of wedding car can be a little tricky. You need something that will turn heads, but also provides you with a degree of comfort and something that you will remember for years to come. The classic type of wedding car is perhaps the open-top type such as a Beauford Tourer or a La Salle/Cadillac Vintage Convertible. These are really impressive vehicles and are bound to turn heads when hey arrive at your venue.
If you fancy a little more privacy but still want to keep the classic style, why not choose a Daimler limousine or a Daimler DB18 saloon. These vehicles make perfect weeding cars and are a great choice if you need loads of room for your dress

What’s so special about vintage cars?

Monday, February 8th, 2010

Isn’t hiring a vintage car a bit like popping over to your dad’s and borrowing his old banger? Doesn’t vintage just mean old? And surely it’s better to show up somewhere in a brand new sparkling top of the range car, not some old clapped out old heap of metal and rust?

Although there is logic to these questions, they are absolutely false:

Vintage cars are traditional, elegant and treasured. All vintage cars for hire will have been properly restored and maintained, and their engines serviced and checked regularly. Broken parts will have been replaced, they are kept free from rust and damage, and will be beautifully painted and waxed for an effortlessly graceful finish.

Many people hire vintage cars for their weddings, here are some reasons why:

Different – it is a bit different to arrive in a fully working, new-looking 1930s soft top than arriving in a carriage or limo, and can give your special day a unique edge.

Traditional – weddings follow very old traditions, from asking the father for permission, to throwing confetti and having something old, new, borrowed and blue (though not necessarily all the same item!). Because of this, hiring a beautiful vintage car as your wedding car can emphasise the tradition and give the impression of a bygone era, making it seem romantic, stunning and above all, elegant.

Customisable – there are so many stunning vintage cars around, you’ll be able to find one with a shape that suits you, whether with a high roof, soft top, antenna headlamps, sweeping curves or sleek wheels. Most wedding cars have the option of a ribbon across the bonnet in a colour of your choice, so it could match the bridal gown, the colour of the flowers, or even the bow ties.

There are plenty of reasons why vintage cars are a great cars to hire, so don’t assume it just means old and rusty, because vintage hire cars are some of the most beautiful and graceful vehicles around.

Make sure your big day starts with a big arrival

Thursday, February 4th, 2010

Wedding cars are notoriously one of the last things people think about when planning a wedding. They think about flowers, photographers, dresses, suits, venue, catering, guests, accommodation, and all the other numerous aspects of that very important day. Let me assure you, your big day will be that much more dream-like and special if you arrive at the church in a sparkling stretch limo.

Limo hire is a very easy way of making your wedding day that bit more amazing. Imagine riding through the streets of Birmingham in one of our stunning stretch hummer limos, attracting envious glances of everyone who sees it. You can see through the windows at all those jealous and impressed faces with the knowledge that they cannot properly see through the dark tinted glass.

Alternatively, if you don’t fancy the modern glam of a stretch limo, there are all sorts of stylish traditional cars to choose from, which will give a wonderful sleek look to your arrival.

Most wedding car hire companies will provide a driver with the vehicle, so you can expect punctuality, professionalism and politeness, as well as a friendly face to help drive you calmly to your wedding. Make sure you choose a style of car that suits you, and you can be sure that it will add an extra burst of excitement to your already unforgettable day.

Quick and simple wedding car hire considerations

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Wedding cars are a quintessential consideration at your wedding. It is important to make the right decision when you hire your wedding car. Listed below are a few important considerations on wedding car hire.

Licence

Find out if the wedding car that you have hired is licenced and registered with the local taxi directorate. Do not choose a wedding car hire service that is not licensed as this would be illegal. Check for a licenced operator by reviewing the front and rear windscreens of the vehicles.

Details

It is important that your wedding car operator knows important details about the locations you visit on the day. You can provide the operator with maps if you want to ensure that you enter through the right gates at the venue. Keep in mind that stretch limos cannot enter into narrow locations.

Timings

You should inform your wedding car hire service about any last minute changes to the timing in advance. This ensures that if they have other commitments, they will have enough time to make alternate arrangements.

Keep these simple tips in mind to ensure that your wedding transport arrangements will run like clockwork.
