Wedding Limo

Our decision to rent a limo for our wedding day, was something that we went back and forth on. Initially, we didnt want to spend the money on a limo, and felt we could just use our own vehicle to get to and from places. Closer to the wedding, it came down to more of a logistical dilema of how we were going to get the bridal party to and from pics and the reception, especially since we didnt want to take numerous vehicles and many in the wedding party didn't have vehicles with them. With this thought in mind we started looking into limo services in our area.

Let me tell you, you definitly have to shop around. Prices and what is included varies so much from business to business. We ended up going with Alpine Limo. The service they provided and the cost fit exactly what we needed and our budget.

Our package cost us around $450 and included the following:

- 5 hrs of service (picked myselft and bridal party up and took us to the ceremony, took wedding party to picture locations after ceremony, and dropped us off at reception)
- Crystal flute glasses & champagne
- Water and ice
- Getaway car at the end of the night for bride and groom

Instead of going with the typical car limo, we ended up going with the black Stretch Navigator Limo.




In the end it was worth the added cost for the convenience of having a limo and besides how many times in your life do you get driven around in a limo?

  1. Yes, you hit the mark on that last sentence. Not everyone gets the chance to ride a limo, simply because limos are expensive. It’s a good thing that there are companies that let your rent a limo! I guess they should also watch out for the people’s demand and customize their cars. I mean, no one would let the opportunity of riding a limo pass by and make their first wedding moments unforgettable.

  2. A wedding only happens once in a lifetime, buddy, so you better make the most out of it. Renting a limo is not really a bad decision at all. It is expensive, yes, but it did provide you, your husband and your family a wonderful wedding day experience, right? That simple fact makes every cent paid, worth it.

  4. You definitely need to look around if you want to spend just the right amount of money for the limo service. The key is to be firm with what you want to have with the service. Remember that it’s the experience that matters. What you get from riding one is the most important thing to consider. I think you did great with the Navigator Limo! The amenities seem to be awesome!
