Automotive Articles - Renting A Rolls Royce From A Limo Service?

From the details of the engagement to the cleanup that ensues after the last guests have finally departed, planning a wedding is the ultimate test of even the most experienced event planner's skills. That's why it becomes an even greater challenge when couples and their families attempt to take on the task themselves, devoting years of their lives to planning the perfect memorable day. From the caterer to the dress designer to the band, there are a hundred services that need to be outsourced to pull off the beautiful wedding every couple wants, and for each service, there's the hassle of meetings, contracts, and deposits.

One aspect of the wedding that should be the simplest often ends up causing the biggest hassle: the limo service. It should be simple enough to choose a limousine service, reserve the cars most suitable for the occasion, and put down the deposit, trusting the car and the driver will show up on time on the big day. Many times, this process doesn't go exactly as planned; the company lost your reservation, forgot to send a driver, there was a big celebrity's event in town that overshadowed yours, and that's not even mentioning all the extra fees that sometimes show up on the bill. The headache can be even worse if you choose to add a specialty car to your limousine rental, like a Rolls Royce.

Traditionally, the bride rides to and from the ceremony in the Rolls Royce, while the rest of the wedding party is transported in the stretch limo. Many companies offer packages that allow for rental of both cars at a discounted price, but the main problem is the lack of availability when it comes to the Rolls Royce. If you want this car, you're going to need to book your reservation with the limo service anywhere from 7-10 months in advance of your wedding date, and as the big day approaches, check in with the limousine service to make sure it is still available. A majority of companies don't actually own a Rolls Royce, so what happens is that they rent the car from one of the larger companies in the area, often upping the price in the process, However, if a large event hosted by a celebrity or important person in the community happens to come up and coincide with your wedding day, the larger company may decide--- sometimes on relatively short notice--- they can make more money by booking the celebrity than by outsourcing to the smaller company, leaving you without the car you paid for and booked a year in advance.

If you know what sort of car you want, make sure the company you're dealing with doesn't rent their vehicles from anyone else, and get all the agreed-upon terms in writing. Once the company knows they may be facing legal action if they promise you a Rolls Royce but give it to a demanding celebrity, they're less likely to make that choice, and more likely to treat you with the respect and positive attitude you deserve.
