DIY Wedding Transport

Wedding transport on your wedding day is a must - unless you are staying over the night before, getting married and having the reception all in one place (If that is you then well done - one less item to plan!). Transport can get expensive - especially if you leave it to the last minute! Some ideas to help you save on your transport:

Do you both need a fancy car?

You and your partner may have fantasies of both turning up in a fancy wedding car fit for the Queen - but do you need it? Consider if one of you can compromise on the fancy car for a more subtle vehicle - this will help you to reduce your costs straight away!

Can your Bridal Party make their own way to your venue?

If you have quite a large bridal party you don't have to transport all of them to your chosen venue - arrange a car pool between them, in advance, to ensure they can all get to the venue.

Could you Decorate your Own Car?

If you know anyone with a bit of a fancier car than usual - could you ask them if they can drive you? You could decorate the car how you want, even give the driver a hat to wear! This would mean you get style without the cost - and nobody needs to know!

Consider Coach Hire for Guests

When getting all your guests from the ceremony to your reception venue consider hiring a coach to transport. You could ask for everyone to chip in too - they would be saving money on getting themselves anyway! A company like VIP Coaches provides luxury coaches - ensuring you don't compromise on your ride!

Black Cab's can be Vintage

If none of the above tips are useful then why not go for a Black Cab? This may be a cheaper option then hiring a fancy car and you can claim it is 'vintage'!
