Wedding car: rental, driver, procession — the guide
The couple's car is the grand entrance. Vintage convertible, prestige sedan or retro combi for the photos: here’s how to choose without stress.
What style for which wedding?
- Vintage or classic car : timeless charm, perfect for rustic and elegant weddings.
- Sedan or limousine with a driver : absolute comfort, ideal to preserve the dress and hairstyle.
- Combi or retro Beetle : a bohemian spirit, very photogenic for photo sessions.
With or without a driver?
Rental with a driver is almost always the right choice on the big day:
- Neither partner should be driving between the emotions and the champagne.
- The driver knows the timing and manages the trips while you enjoy.
- Classic cars often require experienced driving (and insurance frequently requires it).
Organizing the procession
- Count the actual journeys: getting ready → ceremony → photos → reception.
- Plan transport for the witnesses and close family.
- For guests, a distant venue sometimes justifies a shuttle — your guests will thank you at 3 a.m.
Questions before booking
- Are fuel and mileage included?
- What happens in case of a breakdown (replacement vehicle?)?
- Is floral decoration on the hood allowed / included?
- How many hours does the package cover, and what is the rate beyond that?
