 Choosing the right vehicle to get you to and from your wedding venue needs a little planning, but can help create the perfect tone for your perfect day so we’ve put together this handy guide we hope will inspire and delight you. After all, first impressions count and there’s nothing better than a cool car to arrive at your venue in. 

Car prices can range hugely dependent upon a number of factors including vehicle type, timings, inclusion of a chauffeur, providing in-car champagne etc. Bigger budgets will naturally afford you more vehicle choice, but if you’re planning on limiting budget set aside for transportation, research local options available to you in the first instance. Local firms tend to offer more competitive prices. It’s also worth consulting with your venue as they will often be able to recommend reputable, affordable companies. Think whether you have a classic car hidden away in a relative’s garage that they’d lend you for free. Do you know someone at work who will do you a favour and lend you their supercar? 

British weather can be unpredictable all year round, so consideration needs to be given about the chances of sunshine or showers on your big day. If you are planning on getting married in the winter months, it may be more appropriate to consider avoiding soft-top convertibles and focusing on something more practical with bum-warmers! 

Go green and think about whether you can use an electric vehicle. We’re not talking about a milk float in real life – it’d be a bit draughty – plus the sound of the empties may overshadow the church bells. But if the environment is important to you, see if you can go electric – or whether you could walk to the venue if it’s local to your home.
