Welcome to our comprehensive Wedding Chauffeur Service FAQ page. As one of the premier providers of luxury wedding transportation, we understand that planning your perfect day can come with a lot of questions.
In this guide, we answer everything from "Who normally travels in the wedding car?" to "How many wedding cars do you need?" and even "Who pays for guests to travel for a destination wedding?" By addressing these frequently asked questions and more, we aim to make the process of choosing your wedding transport as smooth and enjoyable as your ride in one of our deluxe vehicles.
Traditionally, the bride and her father travel in the wedding car to the ceremony. After the ceremony, the bride and groom travel together to the reception.
The number of people that can fit in a wedding car depends on the type of car. Most classic wedding cars can comfortably seat three to four passengers, while larger vehicles such as limousines can seat up to ten or more.
The ideal width for a wedding car ribbon is approximately 5cm. However, this can vary depending on personal preference and the size of the car.
Choosing wedding transport involves considering factors such as budget, the number of passengers, the distance to be travelled, and the style or theme of the wedding.
There’s no hard rule for this. The most common colours for wedding cars are white, cream, or silver, but it ultimately depends on the couple’s preferences and the wedding theme.
Ribbons are usually tied to the front of the wedding car, with the bow in the centre of the car’s bonnet. Make sure the ribbon is securely fastened and does not obstruct the driver’s view.
Traditionally, the mother of the bride does not travel in the wedding car with the bride and her father. She usually travels ahead in a separate car.
Yes, children can travel in wedding cars, but they must be supervised by an adult and adhere to local laws regarding car seats and seat belts.
The chauffeur or a designated person such as the father of the bride or the best man usually opens the doors for the bride.
Typically, groomsmen do not travel in the wedding car with the bride and groom. They usually have their own transportation to the ceremony.
Typically, you can expect around 85% of your invited guests to attend your wedding. This percentage may be lower for destination weddings.
The number of wedding cars needed depends on the size of the wedding party and the distance between the ceremony and reception venues. Generally, you’ll need at least two cars: one for the bride and her father, and one for the groom and his best man.
Typically, guests are expected to cover their own travel and accommodation costs for a destination wedding. However, this can vary depending on the couple’s preferences and budget.
There are many ways to save money on a wedding. This can include choosing a less popular date or time, having a smaller guest list, making your own decorations, and cutting down on unnecessary extras.
The bride usually arrives at the wedding ceremony in a wedding car, accompanied by her father.
During the ceremony, the mother of the bride traditionally sits in the front row on the left side. She is usually accompanied by her husband or another close family member.
The ushers typically seat the mothers of the bride and groom. In some cases, they may be escorted to their seats by a close family member.
The mother of the groom usually helps the groom get ready before the ceremony, and then she typically travels to the ceremony venue in a separate car.
If you prefer not to have children at your wedding, this can be indicated politely on the invitation or on your wedding website.
Rules for children at a wedding depend on the couple’s preferences. Some couples may have a child-friendly wedding with special activities for kids, while others may prefer an adults-only celebration.
In the UK, children under 12 years old or shorter than 135 cm must use a child seat or booster seat. They can sit in the front seat only if they are using the correct child car seat.
At the reception, the bride’s parents often sit at the top table along with the couple, the groom’s parents, the maid of honor, and the best man.
During the reception, the groom traditionally sits to the bride’s right.
The day before the wedding is often referred to as the “rehearsal day,” which includes the wedding rehearsal and the rehearsal dinner.
Groomsmen are generally expected to pay for their own attire. However, the groom or his family may choose to cover this cost as a gift.
In a traditional wedding procession, the groomsmen usually walk down the aisle first, followed by the groom.
While groomsmen are expected to pay for their own attire and travel expenses, they do not contribute to the overall cost of the wedding. That is traditionally covered by the couple and their families.
