Riding in Style.

So...I think we book our wedding-day transportation for us and our bridal party. And yes, that statement is a little uncertain because we kind of did it on a whim.

We've been playing phone/e-mail tag with one particular limousine company for several weeks now. It's the company that's a hands-down favorite of almost all of our vendors so far, from our reception venue to our photographer. At the last monthly food tasting event at our reception venue, this company had a vehicle on-site that Fiance and I both loved and that would accommodate our large(r) bridal party.

Fiance and the company's reservations manager were finally able to make contact yesterday. To our dismay, we learned that the company already has many of their vehicles booked for our date, even though it's just under a year away. The vehicle that we wanted actually had been booked and in the past day had become available again because the couple decided to upgrade to a party bus (haha).

Serendipitous timing? Perhaps. The only catch was that if we wanted to reserve the vehicle for our [apparently] sought-after date, we pretty much had to put down a deposit on it then and there. So we did.

Luckily, this company has an amazing refund policy—for consumers, anyway. Our on-a-whim deposit is fully refundable up until 30 days prior to our wedding. So we can still comparison shop. In other words, I don't need to panic.

Without the need to panic, I'm getting excited about the prospect cruising in style with all of our bridesmaids and groomsmen on the wedding day!

Do you have any experience with wedding-day limos and such?
