Some Pointers
You Should Personally Inspect the Vehicles. Dont risk
it. Take a little time and let your feet do the walking and
personally inspect all of the actual vehicles that may be
used on your wedding day. Then ask how can you be guaranteed
that these vehicles will be the ones that turn up for your
wedding.
You Should Act Sooner Rather Than
Later.
If you want to book the best cars, then you should start looking
now. The reason for this is that in NSW there are approximately
35,000 weddings performed each year.
The problem is that there are only approximately 600 licensed
wedding cars to fill the demand.
As a result many couples miss out on the best cars. This
is particularly the case when you are looking for cars that
have unique characteristics or are in short supply, such as
classic motor vehicles.
You Should Ask for References and
Testimonials.
Any reputable hirer will have references which will validate
and verify the promises made by the hirer. (Yes, we have testimonials
for you to view. We also won the 1996 and 1997 Hills Shire
Small Business Awards).
If the Bridal Car Service is Cheap, There Must Be Something
Wrong. Think about it. A quality motor vehicle costs a
lot to maintain. This is particularly the case with classic
motor vehicles.
If a bridal car company is offering their vehicles for a
low price, then it stands to reason that they will not have
the margin to maintain there vehicles at a high standard.
If that is the case, then anything could (and sometimes does)
go wrong.

Questions to Ask
What Happens If Their Vehicle Breaks Down? This question
is extremely relevant, and as we have discussed previously,
the issue of spare cars is not the right solution. Thats
why we spend a fortune restoring & maintaining our cars.
Their beauty is not only skin deep. Sure, our cars look great,
but fastidious attention to detail when it comes to the mechanical
condition of our cars is of paramount importance.
How Long Have They Been Trading?
Here today, gone tomorrow could be an apt description of many
businesses. Wedding cars are largely somewhat of a part-time
cottage industry: sometimes it seems that anyone with a car
wants to set up as an operator.
Unfortunately reality sets in soon enough - eventually they
run out of money and close their doors. When that happens
people are going to get hurt. So when you choose a wedding
car service look for longevity.
Youll be pleased to know we have been in the industry
now for more than 10 years and run a very successful business.
How Experienced Are They With Weddings?
We are wedding specialists. We know about all the little things
that can be the difference between making your day an outstanding
success or a dismal failure.
Another point to consider: we are full time operators, but
still a family business. We mention this because many bridal
car operators are part-time hobbyists and have less to lose.
They havent made the ultimate commitment. On the other
hand we have made the commitment. To say we are very motivated
to ensure your experience with us is just perfect
is an understatement. Our future is dependent on it.
How Reliable Are They?
By all means, check out other car companies. But make sure
they are reliable and will keep their promises. Ask to see
their references from happy customers.
Have a look at their cars. Are they in pristine condition?
If the cars havent been well maintained then you could
experience a problem on the day. Ask if they are full time
operators (a good way to tell is to ask if you can inspect
their vehicles on week days).
After all, you havent booked your reception with a
part time reception house, or bought your dress from a hobbyist.
So why jeopardise your wedding day by engaging cheap or dubious
bridal car operators?
