Arrive in style

Match your transportation to your wedding style

By , About.com Guide

Before you book transportation for your wedding day, check out these creative ideas for stylish wedding transportation.

Traditional
Limo- Usually white or black. Some companies also have grey or navy. A new twist on the traditional is the SUV limo which will carry an even larger party.

Very formal
Think about renting a Rolls Royce Bentley or Grey Ghost. Most limousine companies that specialize in weddings will have a classic car available.

Retro
If you're having a retro wedding, or love a particular decade, why not rent or borrow a car appropriate to that era - such as a '63 Cadillac convertible or a Ford Mustang

Slick
What about a fun sports car? There are companies that specialize in renting Lamborghinis and other expensive speedsters.

Princess
Consider a horse drawn carriage. Although you might be a little chilly if you're having a winter wedding, there’s something magically romantic about having a carriage pulled by two white horses. Make sure you have a chance to see the carriage to ensure it lives up to your expectations.

Wild
What about leaving your reception on two matching motorcycles? Or perhaps a motorcycle and a side car? Make sure the bride’s outfit is suitable for such a ride, and that you have the necessary permits.

Other creative options:
A hot air balloon
A tandem bicycle
Having a winter wedding? What about cross-country skiing away from your reception? Or perhaps a snowmobile?
Having a wedding on a lake? Take a rowboat away and have your guests shower you with petals from the docks.
In San Francisco, you could leave your wedding in a restored 1955 fire engine.
What about a hayride or a helicopter ride?
