I had the dream too but could only find one place that did horse and carriage ,they quoted £700!!! It is a lot more than wedding cars which were £300-£400 in my area. It's worth you trying to get quotes though just in case. I've ended up getting a vw campervan for £60 from a random person I met through work :) x

BMW convertible 99 euros or £83 good price I think when a similar car would have cost me £300 in the UK

We had a vw campervan. At first it was going to be a Beauford for around £200 - but I nagged hubby because I love campers. We got married at Gretna, and because the company was in Dumfries we got the campervan for the price excluding mileage because we were local.

My uncle has a bently, so hopefully my other half will be borrowing that to get to the wedding. I on the other hand are going in my little clio, saves the pennies. Can't afford £700 ish for two cars which ive been quoted. x
we are having a chrysler :) it was men to b £220 but as my friend (who is a wedding dress make and does alliteration ) has done a lot of work for the family that own the wedding car company i am getting it for £160 :D :D

we've got a beauford tourer at £300 which is the cheapest in our area and he's making two trips from my mum's to the church so i think its a good price really

I would of loved horse and carriage but there is a very steep road leading down to the castle and I would of been worried the horses would of slipped. We have hired a Cream Jaguar MK IV. It should of been £350 but we managed to get it for £225.
CommentAuthorBex89
I like the look of the beauford tourers.. whereas h2b like the camper vans... bother are about £300-£350 so we might flip a coin! lol

The hotel im getting married in is only a 5/10 minute journey from my house and was getting quoted ridiculous prices for cars for such a short journey. Ended up with a white Limo with ribbon and flowers and bubbly for £120 that we can all go in. My daughters are so excited that they get to ride in it. I would have been happy getting a lift with my uncle but ive done it for the girls really and im glad i have now x x x

I'm having a Bentley and its free !!! My brother works for them & they allow designated drivers to use the company vehicle for family/special occaisions. Fortunately his mate is a designated driver so we only need to buy him a pint for him doing two trips from my place to the church. BARGAIN !!! Lol

We've got a Beauford 1930's convertible, in platinum silver (almost dark grey) - for all day exclusive hire it's £285 including a champagne hamper for our trip to the reception - so we're planning 4 trips (H2B and FOG, FGs and BM, me and Mum, me and H2B).
Similar to this pic but a different colour :-)

CommentAuthormadhen
bridalmiss that sounds like a really good deal on the car for the whole day, plus a hamper! cheaper than most i've heard of for just the car for a couple of hours...
CommentAuthorstarlighthunny
My dream would be to have a horse and Carriage and h2b knows this ........he said I could have one, but then they are quite expensive and then think on how my bms wold get there as I have 4 of them!!
Years from now, I'll want you years from now, and I'll hold

CommentAuthorjoey86
I quite liked the idea of having a black cab - I found a company online and asked for a quote on getting us from the ceremony venue to the reception venue (a 20min journey) and got quoted £150. No idea if this is good or bad, but might just ask my moh if we can borrow her convertible to use as our wedding car instead - definitely going to be cheaper! x
CommentAuthorhello-kitty
i have 5 bridesmaids and they arent getting in the horse and carriage just me and my mate who's giving me away. i think i will find a cheaper way for them :P

Joey, why don't you ring your local taxi firms and see if they have any? One of mine has a new style black cab.
CommentAuthorMariephiz
I'm walking!!!
the Cathedral is literally round the corner so seems silly to get a car. Although the venue for reception is a 45 minute drive, we'll either drive ourselves to the venue or jump in someone else's car.

i wanted a horse and carriage and my partners friend hires one but after hearing stories about him turning up 40 mins late i decided i didnt want him and went looking elsewhere. i then fell in love with the beauford cars and im having a bramworth limo for my bridesmaids. :)

We are having a Bentley £280 for 2 journeys from my house to venue then a journey to some beautiful gardens after the ceremony for me and h2b to have pictures taken, I cannot wait I was originally going to stay at the venue the night before but it wasn't what I really wanted was just to save some money but h2b found this and said it was too good to turn down and a hotel room was £109 anyway so he would rather I feel special on the day then sleep at the venue just to save a £150 bless him x
Were having a 1930's Beauford it will do two trips to church which is only 5 mins from my parents house then take us to our reception which is only another 15 minutes away from church!! Were paying £275 which is cheaper than I had thought! :-)
