Wedding Transportation: Getting Everyone Where
They Need to be - on Time!
By Amy Spade
One of the last things a couple
will think about when planning their wedding is how to get
everyone there and back. But this is a special day, so you don’t
want to be piling everyone into a station wagon to get to the
church on time—unless it’s a really big station wagon.
Getting to the vows
The bridal party as well as the
couple themselves may want to invest in a limousine to transport
them from the salon or hotel to the church or chapel. Not only
does this free up everyone to indulge in a little champagne, but
it also takes the stress out of who is driving, if they show up
on time, making sure that everyone can fit into the car without
wrinkling the dresses or tuxedos too much, etc.
One of the best ways to handle
this is to have the bridal party meet at the hotel the morning
of the wedding. This way, the bride and her bridesmaids can take
the limo to the salon while the men can go out for golf or
breakfast. After they are done, they can change and shower at
the hotel and then have the limo take them to the church. After
the beauty treatments are done, the women can return to the
hotel to change into their dresses and then take the limo that
has returned by now to the church as well.
This way, the groom and the
bride don’t see each other, but everyone rides to the wedding in
style.
Leaving for the reception
After the vows, the bride and
the groom will normally ride off in a limo for pictures or to go
to the reception early to freshen up. If the bridal party has
another limo, then they can all ride together; if not, a few
people can drive. At this point, a lot of the pictures will have
been taken, so it won’t be as important to have the least amount
of wrinkles in the outfits.
And after the reception, the
bride and the groom may choose to hire transportation between
the reception and the hotel. This is a costly option, but if the
two are far apart, it’s also wise. When you have guests from out
of town, this may work out well as they may not know their way
around.
If you do plan on offering
transport, let guests know in the invitation.
