How To Arrive At Your Wedding Ceremony In Style!

Arriving at your wedding ceremony in style is every girls dream. However, unless your Father is a Third World dictator or an Estate Agent, your choice of transport to the church or wedding venue will be determined by many important factors such as:

* cost
* what you have always dreamed of having
* cost
* practicability
* cost
* distances to travel
* cost
* the theme of the wedding
* cost
* the colour scheme of the wedding
* and last, but no means least...cost!

However, let's be serious. Although cost is obviously a factor for anyone, when it comes to weddings, it may not be "the" most important factor. For example, a bride may be willing to stretch her budget to pay more for a Pink Cadillac simply because it matches the colour scheme for the wedding. So, because aspirations and emotions are also involved in the decision-making process, it may be fair to say that many brides pick their mode of transport based on the three most important questions:

* Does it look good?
* Will it look good in the wedding photographs?
* Will it fit in with the colour scheme of my wedding?

With these questions in mind, here are some traditional and not so traditional ideas of how to arrive at your wedding looking good and colour matching!

Classic or Vintage Cars

These usually offer style, luxury, comfort, and more than ample room for most wedding dresses. Whether you choose a Bentley, Rolls, Daimler, or Cadillac, you are guaranteed to have a wonderful journey. However, if you are considering an open top car, then please remember it could cause havoc with your hairstyle. The simple solution to this is hire a car with a top that can be taken down just as you are arriving at the ceremony venue. This will ensure you arrive in style - and you will not look like Kate Bush performing Wuthering Heights.

Limousines

As you are the star of the show, you might as well act like one and arrive in your own Limo! For town weddings, the Limo also offers a bit of privacy. You have the option of not feeling like a goldfish in a bowl. Also, as most Limos usually have a bar, then you and your new husband can have a quick glass of champagne on the way to the wedding reception. Very nice...

Horse and Carriage

Very romantic and great for photographs. However, you would have to calculate whether it would be feasible if there was a long distance between the ceremony venue and the reception venue. Also, does the carriage have sufficient cover if the weather is wet or windy.

By Boat

If you are having your wedding at a venue by a Loch, Lake, or river, then you could explore the possibilties of arriving by a little, romantic boat or a flashy speedboat!

By Hot Air Balloon

Not for everyone - but it has been done. The bride arrives at the venue by hot air balloon and makes a stunning entrance. However, just make sure the wind is blowing in the right direction!

Otherwise, there could be quite a delay before your big entrance....
