The end to a perfect day of celebrations begins with the right wedding car no matter how you choose to go about hiring one.
Friends and family who have a well-maintained car can be requested to lend theirs but for a truly memorable ride, approaching a professional car rental service is the answer.
What sets rentals apart? Aside from owning and managing a fleet of vehicles for different requirements, the cars are well-maintained, come with chauffeurs, offer ice buckets and champagne, are very spacious and can seat over half a dozen people.
Additional amenities are provided depending on the package you choose.
Car rentals have in their possession different models and makes of vehicles.
Modern sedans and limos, classic cars and even vintage choices can be found.
Such options give you more room to carefully weigh your decision and make sure you find the wedding car of your dreams and equally importantly, your budget.
Before settling, insist that an agreement is drawn up in writing and signed by both you and the rental service.
The agreement should state what car is being hired, what amenities are being sought, what additional amenities you want along with the cost, the name of the chauffeur in case of complaints, to and where the car will ferry you, the duration of the rental and any extra charge that may be levied on you.
Read it carefully, voice any complaints or enquiries you have before penning your signature.
If you choose a vintage car, determine whether it's an actual vintage vehicle or one modified to look classic.
You don't want to feel cheated.
Pay a physical visit to the service and check the car for yourself.
Examine the upholstery, the inclusion of ice boxes, glasses etc and how roomy and clean the cabin is.
You'll be chauffeured so you want a presentable, courteous driver who knows the city.
You may prefer a chauffeur who wears a uniform in which case enquire if provisions can be made.
More importantly, find out if the driver has a valid driving license, how long he's been driving, whether he's insured and bonded and whether any complaints have been made against his performance.
You can also ask for referrals and speak to past clients for verification.
In case of bad weather, services may make provisions in the form of umbrellas since getting soaked and ruining your expensive clothes is not worth it.
Heating systems and air conditioning should also be available especially in the cold winter months.
Keep in mind that many vintage vehicles don't necessarily have such amenities in which case you should think long and hard before renting them.
Little details contribute to making a wedding car fit for royalty.
Decorative elements like flowers and ribbons to match your wedding color theme can be availed if you desire.
They may add to the rental cost but not by much.
Either way, spending a little more to perfect your ride is worth it.
Having a contingency plan like a friend's car in case something goes wrong is wise but it shouldn't be the primary choice.
No matter how good their intentions, they may need to use the car in case of emergencies in which case you'll be left car-less.
Opting for a professional car rental service makes more sense as it will try to deliver at all costs.
