New York Limousine Service Helps Brides-to-be Land the Right Limo for Their Summer Weddings

(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 18, 2009 ) Wedding season is just around the corner, and brides and grooms expect to arrive (and leave) in style. But is it too late for those who haven't secured a limousine rental yet? New York limousine service, Star City Limousine, answers that question and more in their free collection of timely tips for securing the right limo rental for any wedding.

Â“Limousine rentals sometimes take a back seat in the minds of busy brides who are worrying about guest lists, venues, and finding the perfect wedding dress," says Star City LimousineÂ’s Managing Director, Steve Miller. Â“But Â“But the limo and driver play a big role on the wedding day. They may make sure the bride or groom arrives to the ceremony or reception on time. They get the wedding party to the reception comfortably. They also may take the recently married couple from the reception to the start of their honeymoon. It's extremely important that nothing is overlooked, so the happy couple doesn't have any unwelcome surprises on the wedding day--like the bridal party not all fitting into one car as expected."

Star City Limousine offers the following tips for painless wedding limousine rentals:

1. Book early. Booking a limousine rental as much as a year in advance may be necessary during busy wedding or prom seasons. Booking early also makes it more likely matching limos will be available when more than one rental is needed.

2. Overestimate--both rental times and limo sizes. While a limo may be advertised as being able to seat eight, that doesn't account for the extra space required to fit formal attire. Also, renters have to remember to factor waiting time into limo rental periods, and understand most limousine rental companies have minimum rental times of several hours.

3. Get a contract. Brides and grooms can't afford for things to go wrong on their wedding day. Without a signed contract, they may have no recourse if the limo doesn't show up (or shows up late) or the car isn't what was promised. Contracts offer peace of mind.

4. Factor in the tip. A cash tip of around 20% is normal on the wedding day, and should be accounted for in the budget. Depending on the size, type, and number of limos, it can add a hefty fee.

5. Double-check prices. The basic limousine rental rate listed on a company's website or advertisement may not apply to your wedding day. It is common for companies to charge more during in-demand seasons or special days (such as if the wedding date is on a holiday).
