Planning In Advance For Wedding Limo

By Adriana Noton


Renting a limo for your special day provides an extra special touch. This will help relieve some of the tension. The wedding limo can start from small to stretch, depending upon your taste. You have to consider your budget, if the wedding party will be included and at what time you want to use limo.

Beginning a search for limos about six months in advance of the wedding is a good plan. Advanced planning should result in getting the vehicle of choice. Most limousine companies rent on an hourly basis with a minimum amount of hours. The amount you have to spend will determine the vehicle and also if the wedding party will ride in the limo.

A reservation can be secured after a decision is made on the amount of passengers that will be riding. A majority of limos seat 10 to 14 people. A limo bus is equipped to seat up to 32 people. Some of the fancy vehicles may be more expensive. You should check the tipping policy while reading your contract. The tip is usually an added expense that is not in the contract but expected at 20 percent over the limo cost, and given to the driver.

Your regular limousine should have amenities, such as bar and sink, DVD with surround sound equipment, windows that are tinted. You want to be certain before making a decision. It is good to know your personal preferences when deciding on a vehicle. Glasses, napkins and ice are normally standard items for the bar but do not forget to request them. Champagne is available upon request and for an additional fee.

When picking a business, locate those that are credible and have a good reputation. You should choose a company that has some years of experience. Individuals involved in wedding planning and wedding products, sometimes have knowledge of special packages or referrals for companies. Make an inquiry about insurance coverage and ask for proof of insurance. All licenses for limousine fleet and drivers should be updated.

You can begin with an online search or call companies directly. All companies will have to know the date, the amount of passengers, and location for pick up. You want to meet with at least three businesses. Request a vehicle inspection. You want to be able to get a vehicle of luxury for the the price but you do not want to sacrifice quality.
