    as it says what kind of car are you all having on the day, we're undecided as of yet had a few bad experiences with hire companies when we've been looking into them so thats making the choice even harder.

    sounds nice hun :) are you hiring from a bridal company or an executive car hire company,
    i had never even thought of going to an executive car hire place but a few people have suggested this as they have some really lovely cars for a lot less money !

    I'm going in a smart fortwo - think H2B is going in his smart Roadster :) saves lots of money doing it that way (with our own cars) and means something to us both too :)

    ours is a beauford.
    I was wanting a horse and carriage but was scared about the weather aspect.So i went with the beauford which i can get the roof pushed all the way back for lovely pictures, if it is dry and then up so it will not blow out my hair/ or keep the rain out. LOL
    My h2b is getting their in his own car, and i am not getting another. I told my mum if she wishes a car for her and/or the bridesmaids she can pay for them. I would rather use our own cars so the next day we have transport home.

    oh i love the beaufords theres a gorgeous one in the hire shop in my village i wanted but ive called and emailed them 5 or 6 times and had no response so gave up ! nice choice :)

    also a good idea having your own cars for getting home thats a much more sensible idea ! xx

    i think the cheapest i have saw is about £170 each, as for the beauford it was £300, so it depends what car you want on the day. A horse and carriage is £350 near be, but unless you stay near the church and reception (within about a mile or so) you will need a car along with the horse.

    We are being cheap and using our own car, but it is a lovely Volvo S80, and my h2b loves his Volvo so it is the obvious choice, lol. Just get some ribbon and I will probably make some pretty paper pom-poms to decorate the back shelf. Save a fortune better put to our honeymoon as well. :D
