Getting to your wedding venue on time is as important as the ceremony itself.
The couple needs to arrive at the reception on time so they don't keep the guests waiting, the bride would need to step out of her car into the church at the right moment and the limo driver would have to report on time.
For these reasons, the transportation aspect of a wedding event cannot be compromised.
How do you coordinate your wedding transportation such that there are no delays, no interruptions nor flops? Book your car in advance.
If you are marrying in Summer or Spring, the earlier you book the better as these are seasons that many activities take place.
Do not rent the vehicle over the phone and without a contract.
Walk down to the car rental agency, inspect the vehicle and get a written contact.
That way, the owner stays committed and you can count on his obligation on the wedding day.
It is advisable to ensure that the vehicle you pick satisfies the state's regulations.
It must be properly licensed, insured and the driver authorized to drive that class of vehicle.
You need to ensure that all these things are kept in order so you would not be embarrassed at the last hour.
At the time of booking, ask if the driver will appear in his official uniform or will be dressed for the occasion.
If he will drive in his usual work gear, then you may have to insist that he gets a proper suit.
The limo driver is part of the ceremony and must be appropriately dressed.
You would not want to step out of a limo, which is driven by a chauffeur dressed in his khaki overalls.
The wedding transportation can spell the difference between a successful wedding and a failure.
Inspect the car, book early and insist that the driver appears in formal clothes to avoid embarrassment and delays.
