Unique Car Wedding Ideas: Expert Tips

Spoilt for choice and feeling confused? Not to worry - here at Hitched, we like to consider ourselves the wedding experts of all things nuptials, so we've answered the most popular questions about unusual wedding cars. 

What are the best wedding cars?

When choosing the best wedding car, the decision comes down to your taste and style above all else. But other factors like your budget, and the distance that the car is required to drive, will also come into consideration. 

When looking at the options we've shared above and exploring what's local to your wedding venue, consider the mileage, practicality, cost and style of the car before making the commitment. The best one will be the car that ticks all your boxes! 

How do you choose the right wedding car?

Consider your wedding theme, budget, and personal style. Ensure the vehicle comfortably accommodates you and your attire, and also suits your newlywed vibe!

Do you need a wedding car?

You certainly don't need to rent a wedding car if you don't want to, or if budget doesn't allow. Using your own car adds a personal touch, and you can always decorate it thoughtfully to reflect your wedding theme.

However, it's a fun place to allocate your budget if you have room to, as it's a great way to ensure that you and your loved one make a grand entrance and an exciting departure!

Can you rent a vintage wedding car

Absolutely! The best part about renting your wedding car is that you really can pick whatever you like and hire it temporarily. Just remember, it's advisable to book at least six months in advance, especially during peak wedding seasons.
