Who goes in what car?

I'm trying to figure out how many cars to get and who goes in what car to the ceremony and then to the reception? Does the couple go separately to the ceremony and then join the bridal party in the car to the reception? It's so confusing!

Usually the bride, her bridesmaids and possibly her parents travel in one car, the groom and his groomsmen travel in a second vehicle arriving well before the brides car. However depending on the distances (therefore time) we can deliver the groom and his groomsmen to the location and then pick up the bride and her party and take them to the location.

Tropical Luxury Cars Yeppoon has 2 quite different cars in our fleet...a Pink Ford LTD Stretch Limousine (fully-licenced for alcohol) and a Mercedes-Benz Viano Van. Both cars hold 6 guests in the back with another seat available in the front if required. Normally the Bride, her Bridesmaids, Flower-Girl and/or Parents arrive at the ceremony in the 'PINK LADY' Limousine, with the Groom & his Groomsmen arriving in the Van. There is something aesthetically striking about the gentlemen in their suits and finery emerging from the sleek Black Van, and the image of the Bride arriving in her sparkling Pink Limousine with her Father opening the door to help her out, makes for great looking photos

Depending on the type of vehicle you are looking for will depend on who travels in which car to the ceremony, photo locations and then to your reception.  If you decide on smaller cars you would find that you may need 2, 3 or 4 cars depending on the size of your bridaly party, whereas if you decide on a stretch limousine you could fit the whole bridal party into one vehicle.  On the way to the ceremony generally you and your partner would travel from two seperarte locations, and would arrive at different times.  The bride generally would travel with her father, mother, maid of honour, bridesmaids - or all of the above if choosing a limo.  If you have children as part of your wedding party you may find that they wither travel with you, or with their parents depending on what is easiest for you and the parents involved.  Once you finish the ceremony and are travelling to some photo locations and then finally to the reception, the couple would travel together and if you have chosen a stretch limo you would also travel with your bridal/grooms party all in the one vehicle.  If you decided for smaller cars you would then just split the bridal/grooms party into the other vehicles as needed.

It depends on religion and tradition. Old style used to be, groom and groomsmen make their way to the church. Bride and traditionally the father and bride travel in one car. Other cars can be ordered for bridesmaids and the mother.

some weddings, groom and bride travel together. It can vary a lot. Best to call a wedding planner for good advice

Every wedding is is diffferent and can sonetimes depend on your budget as what choice you decide on. I would sugest that you conact us to have a chat about what you would like & we can make suggestions & design a package to suit your needs.

It is often common with a traditional wedding,  that the groom will get to the ceremony first along with his groomsmen. This is often in one or two classic vehicles depending on numbers.

These same cars can the be used to collect the Bride & her party if distances & times permit. Often The Bride will travel separately in her own car with her father or even both parents to share those treasured moments before the ceremony, while her bridesmaids will be in another car/s.

On arrival at the Ceremony the car will stay onsite for photos after the marriage & be used for the Bride & Groom to travel in to photos or the reception.

It really comes down to personal choice, style or theme of the wedding & budget whether you have several classic cars or on larger modern stretch limousine. Hope this helps your decision.
