Your wedding is supposed to be the best day of your life and one thing is for certain, everything has to be just right. This includes making sure you have the best wedding car or cars available. This is so important that some people are prepared to pay substantial amounts of money for the right wedding vehicle, particularly in the London region.
In terms of limousines the traditional wedding vehicles, the white stretch Lincoln Town Car limousine was the limo of choice for weddings and it is still used for the majority of weddings. However with the introduction of the Chrysler C300 Baby Bentley limousine this is now changing. The Baby Bentley, particularly in the Leeds area has become very popular with any type of wedding from Asian weddings to Christian weddings. This has probably got a lot to do with the style of the limo. The Chrysler C300 Baby Bentley has been likened to a stretched out Bentley and this is where the name ?Baby Bentley? has been derived from.
Quite often the Chrysler c300 limousines or the Lincoln Millennium limos are used for the groom and best man or the bridesmaids and a prestigious or classic car is used for the bride and father of the bride. There are plenty of prestigious wedding cars around including the Bentley Arnage, Rolls Royce Phantom and Bentley Flying Spur. There are also quite a few classic wedding cars including the 1930's Beauford, the Daimler, the Excalibur and classic 1960's Bentleys and Rolls Royce. It is a question of personal choice about which wedding car to have but the Rolls Royce Phantom is probably the most popular.
Asian Weddings tend to be grandiose affairs and this is reflected with the choice of limousines available. Quite often it is the Hummer H2 limousine that is used, particularly the triple axle or 8 wheeler H2 Hummer limo. Audi Q7 limousines and Range Rover Sport limousine are also proving to be highly popular.
A few outgoing people will often opt for a limousine with a difference for their wedding. This includes the pink Lincoln Town Car and even a fire engine limo. Once again it is simply a matter of choice. But whatever limousine or executive wedding car you decide on you can be rest assured that your wedding limo hire will run smoothly, your chauffeur will be fully uniformed and professional and the limousine or car will be in top condition.
Here are some top tips for wedding limo hire.
- Always book your wedding car or limousine early. Wedding season tends to be in June and July and Asian Weddings are almost always on a Sunday. So to avoid disappointment book well in advance. Remember other people will also be getting married and looking for limousines, they may just be getting married on the same day. - Always allow yourself enough time for the wedding hire. Registry office weddings tend to run for 2 hours whereas church weddings should allow at least 3 hours. Many limousine companies will only rent their limousine for weddings for a minimum of 2 hours and rarely for just an hour. Remember if you overrun on time there may be additional charges involved. - Always have at least two contact telephone numbers. This ensures that in the rare event of a problem the chauffeur can contact you quickly. - Don't forget to say 'I do'.
Your wedding day is something very special, and even though the day itself may quickly happen, your memories of that particular day will hopefully stay in your mind forever.
You will want to remember this day as the perfect day, and you will obviously want to look your very best for it. Even if preparations often focus around the dress, the ring and the jewellery are equally or even more important.
Buying a wedding ring is certainly not a purchase to be done with rush. Remember that you will wear your wedding ring forever, so it has to be a choice done with a lot of care.
But what kind of jewellery should you wear on your special day?
If you are having a traditional wedding, then you can get away with jewellery like diamond rings and diamond earrings with a matching bracelets and pendants.
If your dress is the sort of elegant creation that you would get for a modern wedding, it is a bit trickier to get the balance right. You might want to choose traditional jewellery to contrast with and soften the contemporary look of your dress. You would need to go for jewellery like pearls or why not your if you had one!
Not everyone goes for a traditional white wedding, and some people would go for more fantasy. Whether your unconventional wedding is planned around a medieval banquet style or a funky urban brunch, pearls and diamonds are unlikely to be used. It would be much better to go for genuine gems or simulated stones, with coloured jewellery a good idea that would simply look fabulous.
If your budget is a bit bigger, you could try to do like celebrities. A lot of actress, singer and other would get a dress from a fashion designer like John Galliano or any other. Celebrities through the ages have always made their wedding days an occasion to make a style statement, so why not you!
Of course the most important pieces of jewellery on your wedding day are your gold engagement rings and wedding diamond rings. Most couples would tend to go for simple wedding bands that will look stylish forever and will perfectly complement the bride’s diamond engagement rings. It is actually traditional to wear your diamond or gold engagement rings on the right hand throughout the ceremony of the wedding, to leave the third finger of your left hand free for your wedding ring.
