Cooling Castle Barn Review And Wedding Car Hire.

December 14th, 2011

Cooling Castle Barn has become Kent’s favorite wedding venue for many compelling reasons. The facility offers three barns for hire, including The Fathom Barn that hosts the marriage ceremony, the Tithe that hosts the wedding breakfast and the Heritage that hosts the guest reception. The spectacular grounds are complemented by the large, open space within the barns and the staff’s professional and courteous service.

John Cobham built Cooling Castle between 1380 and 1385. The fortress was built on the marshes’ edge to protect the Thames River from invaders. Now, the building stands about two miles inland and has fallen into ruin, although musician Jools Holland has established a private residence inside its walls. The twin drum tower gatehouse as well as the exquisite garden both remain in good condition. Both features provide elegant backdrops for wedding pictures and other impromptu photos.

Couples may locate their wedding ceremony in one of two different locations. The wedding may take place in the Fathom or may take place outdoors, depending on conditions and on the wishes of the couple. Additionally, a Toastmaster works for the facility to ensure that couples have a well-run and pleasant day. The Toastmaster worries about the logistics so that couples can focus on enjoying one of the most important days of their lives.

Cars 4 Weddings provides car service that arrives at the towers. The car drives to the reception at the barn, where the driver is greeted by the Toastmaster so that plans for the day can be arranged. Then, the driver waits until the marriage service has ended before taking couples on a short countryside tour, serving champagne according to the couple’s request. When the vehicle returns to the castle, the wedding photographer awaits the couple and snaps photographs of both the car and the towers of the castle in the background.

Guests gather in the gardens to await the arrival of the bride and groom after their countryside tour. When the photographer has finished with his duties, the car chauffeurs the couple into the gardens, circling the lawn so that assembled guests may cheer for the happy couple. The car waits as guests take photographs and as the photographer finishes up any final wedding shots.

Wedding Cars – Would The Wise Decision Be To Hire From A Large Established Company In Todays Market

November 9th, 2010

Not so long ago the choice of wedding car and car company was limited, there were the yellow pages and word of mouth recommendation from a friend for the supplier. The wedding cars were restricted to vintage and classic makes usually operated by the owner or car enthusiast from his home in town. The car transfer involved a local pickup, a short trip to the church, then on to the reception nearby, how times have changed.

Recent changes in the law, social trends and new technology has given the bride and groom far more choice for their location of the service and reception. Fewer couples are married in church now, but that may change with the advent of choosing which church to get married in. Many couples are opting for something different, getting married in a barn, a castle, a manor house, a hotel, a pub or a venue with a theme, whichever is the dream location. The ceremony and the reception are very often at the same location, and these venues are open for business throughout the week and all year round.

Has the car supplier changed with the times, are they be able to meet the new customer demands, will the car be able to meet the new customer demands. It will be vitally important to choose a wedding car supplier who understands the changing customer requirements and is able to offer the reliable service that meets the demands of todays wedding transfers.

It is more important than ever to make sure the wedding car will be able to make the journey. It was fine when the choice was a classic or vintage car from a home wedding car operator, who only had to travel a couple of miles. Today the bridal cars are expected to travel further distances than before, be able to cope with the density of todays town traffic and motorway speeds.

A modern classic Rolls Royce Silver Shadow cost many thousands of pounds when new with servicing bills to match. The wedding car maybe older now, but the high servicing costs of these cars for the small car supplier has not changed. The classic car parked on the drive all year round will probably make the short trip around town but the longer journey will show up an under maintained car.

Wedding car suppliers that meet the new demands are generally larger companies with their own selection of cars. They will operate their business all year round and be available during working hours and throughout the week. They will regularly use the cars on longer wedding transfers and operate them throughout the year, this is well known to improve the reliability of older cars. They can afford to keep them together in a large garage to be viewed at anytime, be out of the weather elements and keep them in good condition and well maintained. The larger business will have conducted more weddings, be more likely to know the church or venue and know the route and that the car is reliable for the distance. The vintage cars will generally be trailered to the location because they cannot travel longer distances or cope with todays faster pace of traffic.

In conclusion look for a well established full-time professional company because this will be the company that is still in business when the wedding day comes round. There are many hobbyist wedding car owners out there that do not operate as a proper business.

Why Should You Choose A Chauffeured White London Wedding Taxi

March 8th, 2010

The classic London Taxi Cabs are recognised all around the world, they are internationally renowned and you will have seen them on TV or in movies. The London taxis, are iconic and classic, they are so recognizable that they have become a cultural image of our cities.

The rare classic Fairway London Taxi Cab model is the prettiest around, the gleaming white coachwork and extensive chrome fittings including old style chrome bumpers make them ideal wedding cars. It is definitely a very practical wedding vehicle; the large, wide opening doors of the classic white taxi are more practical for a bride in her wedding dress. It has seating for 6 people with wheel chair access and can easily accommodate even the most extravagant of bridal wear, making it a far better option than a saloon car.

It is a vehicle for hire that comes with all the benefits of a limousine without the cost; the taxi is wheelchair-accessible, making it quick and easy travel for the elderly, infirm or handicapped, without the problem of having to find parking. The chauffeur exits the car, greets the passenger who is in a wheelchair, and helps them onto the ramp and into the taxi, and straps the wheelchair in with belts, clips, and locks in for safety.

In comparison to a taxi driver, the chauffeurs attire is another aspect which can make the difference, the chauffeurs wear a dark suit, white shirt, a conservative dark tie, highly polished black shoes, black gloves and a peaked cap. A chauffeur is also a more professional, skilled and polished driver, who can be friendly, discrete and a knowledgeable driving escort, and who will certainly make sure your journey is a safe and comfortable one with their attitude, manner and professionalism.

Another difference with chauffeur hire is that a chauffeur service is pre planned whereas a taxi service is unplanned. The chauffeur will come to your door on arrival for collection, not honk the horn like a taxi usually does, the chauffeur service is a delight in itself, as a customer will not be left unwatched and uncared during the service duration. The Chauffeur will open and close the car doors for the passengers, help in with the wedding dress and hold bouquets, clutch bags etc, and be at hand with an umbrella if so needed.

Dare to be different with rare London wedding taxis which are valeted after every journey and can be tastefully decorated with ribbons and flowers as part of the hire service.

What Questions Should I Be Asking When Booking My Wedding Car

March 2nd, 2010

You want to look back with fond memories of your wedding day, it is one of the most monumental days of your life, and one that you would want to live in style. The day itself takes a lot of organisation, one aspect of the day which is often over looked or left to the last minute is the wedding transport. Traditionally it is the groom\’s responsibility to organize the wedding transport, but many grooms lack of knowledge and understanding make them unaware of exactly how important this day is for the bride-to-be.

Some grooms even give this responsibility to the best man and if you are a bride-to-be and are worried that your groom lacks the understanding on how important it is to find the best transport for you, you may just have to do it yourself. Here are some answers to the frequently asked questions on how to get the most out of your wedding car hire, even if you don\’t know a lot about wedding transport.

How many weddings cars will I need? Think about the journey you will make and who will be in the wedding cars, it is important that you think about where the pick up points are and exactly who you would like to be in the cars. How many bridesmaids, flower girls and pageboys will you be having, this will determine how many cars you will need. If you want to stick to the traditional car then why not consider hiring a classic seven seat Daimler Limousine? Also, think about asking a relative or friend to take any large bags or luggage as not all cars have enough storage space.

How will the company prepare for the wedding day? The company should plan the chauffeurs schedules. Each chauffeur should have a full briefing and undergo a dry-run of the route prior to the wedding. This will also check for any disruption on the roads or any plans for roadworks that may cause delays. The cars should be prepared a couple of days before the wedding to ensure they are in tip top condition and decorated in accordance with your requirements.

What colour car & decorations should I have? The car colour is important, make sure that the car you hire complements the colour theme of your wedding, so do not go for a bright red wedding car if your theme is ivory and pastel green. It is also worth checking before you sign the hire agreement if the wedding car hire company is willing to match the ribbons and flowers in the car with your dress or colour theme.

Will the wedding car be booked for more than one wedding per day? Make sure you get exclusive use of the car, & that the wedding car hire company only book one car, per wedding, per day. This means that the car is not double booked and the service is focused on your wedding day only. Some firms only have one or two cars and will try to make as much money as they can during the key wedding season. They may also have to leave for another wedding or charge by the hour with hidden additional costs if your wedding should overrun.

Many times it is seen that wedding car hire is not given the importance at all and friends and family members think that they can use their vehicles in order to ferry the bride and groom to the wedding reception. If you want to travel in style at your wedding, wedding car hire is the ideal choice; it will make a positive contribution to what is sure to be one of the most memorable days of your life.
