One big question you will need to answer for your wedding day is A do you need transport ? and B if yes, what kind of transport ? Obviously, of you are getting ready at your venue the need for transport diminishes, unless it is a large property and you don't want to walk too far in your dress and heels. Or, maybe like us you want to create a little smoke screen. We have several practical jokers amongst our families and friends. So, as far as they were aware, we had a car turn up at the end of our wedding to take us away to spend the night together elsewhere. In reality it dropped us off at the honeymoon suite on site, but it meant we could relax after the long day without any fears.
Now all you need to decide is what sort of transport do you want ? Something traditional and timeless or something a bit more unique and quirky ? Here we share with you just some of the modes of transport our couples have used over the years. As you will see there is a huge choice available to you so you are bound to find something that fits you as a couple and your wedding style.
American Classic Car
How about an American classic to get you to the church on time ? Just remember they are often quite low to the ground.
Red London Bus
If you need to transport your guests between venues a great option would be one or two red London buses. They also give some wonderful photo opportuntities as well. These beautiful examples were supplied by The London Bus Company.
VW Minivan Or Beetle
If you are having a vintage themed wedding or what wedding transport a bit different to a luxury car, what could be more classic than a VW Beetle or Campervan ? These stunning examples are from V-Dub Rides. They also allow your dogs to travel with you, in their own words "We LOVE dogs & welcome them on board our VW’s. We will even look after your dog whilst you get married if you like or chaperone him/her down the aisle or look after them while you are in your ceremony. Experienced dog owners & happy to oblige."
Golf Buggy
Many golf courses who do weddings, have one or two golf buggies which can be used by the happy couple to get around in comfort. Our bride and groom had great fun with theirs at Warley Park Golf Club.
Horse
Our lovely bride Julie could not imagine her wedding day without her beloved Huckleberry and almost caught us off guard when she jumped on and rode him around the field in her wedding dress.
Horse Drawn Carriage
There are few brides who have not dreamed if arriving in a horse drawn carriage for their wedding. This beautiful white carriage and horses are just one of the teams available from Layer Marney Horse Drawn Carriages.
Stretch Hummer
A stretch Hummer definitely makes a statement, just make sure they can manoeuvre around your venue without too much difficulty.
Party Mini Bus
A party mini bus means all your bridesmaids can travel together and have some fun at the same time. This one is from Limo Style.
Stretch Limousine
A stretch limousine is another great way of transporting a large number of bridesmaids in style with some fun thrown in. This lovely white limousine is from Limos4U.
Tractor & Trailer
Our bride Bryony and her now husband had links with the Essex Young Farmers so a tractor and trailer made the ideal mode of transport for their wedding day at Great Lodge, Bardfield.
Del Boys' Yellow Reliant Robin
If you or your partner love Only Fools & Horses Del Boys Yellow Reliant Robin is a great way to personalise your wedding day. This one from Trotters Wedding & Transport Services supplies lots of props for you and your guests to use as well.
Vintage Coach
Ever thought about having a vintage coach for your wedding day ? Great for adding a touch of class from a bygone era to your special day. This is just one of the vintage coaches available from Lodges.
Vintage Fire Engine
Our groom Matt had a passion for old vehicles and restoring them so his wedding day would not have been complete without this Vintage Red Fire Engine from his collection.
Vintage Rolls Royce
When you book your wedding and/or reception at Layer Marney a vintage Rolls Royce is included in your package. A stunning way to arrive in style for your wedding.
