The Role of Vintage Cars In Weddings

Wedding Entry – The Role of Vintage Cars and Its History

Who wouldn’t love to be Charles and Diana, or William and Kate on their D-Day? These iconic royal couples are symbols of romance and classiness.

Couples are on top of the world, and often see themselves as Prince and Princess Charming on their wedding day. And the world too sees them so. Vintage elements have come to wedding celebrations in this same way – to add classiness to the whole event.

Why Vintage Cars in Weddings?

The word ‘vintage’ is creating a buzz in the wedding scenario. From the vintage jewellery, clothes to cars, people are going gaga over it.

A vintage car is an exquisite addition to wedding celebrations. Here are few reasons why many couples prefer a grand entry in a vintage car:

• The day is devoted to declaring your love and commitment in front of all your loved ones. This demands the romance of a vintage car.
• Vintage cars add that unique touch, making the whole wedding scenario elegant. Apart from adding some charm, it is the luxury which makes it unbeatable.
• Many couples find this as an opportunity to make a style statement. Whether the groom wants to land in the venue in Rolls Royce, or the bride wants to bid adieu to her family in Mercedes, it’s all about style and keeping it traditional at the same time.
• Classic cars captivate us with their beauty, rarity and engineering, with the memories they evoke and the history they capture. They are something beyond time. And so it symbolizes the depth of relationships – that it will stay beyond times.
• Some would like to relive those glorious moments of the wedding event.

Who should look for a Vintage Car entry?

A vintage car entry may not be suitable for all types of weddings. So who all can choose it?

• Those who want to add a classy element to their wedding can go for vintage elements.
• It is most apt for royal weddings – both western and Indian royal weddings.
• Even if it is a beachside wedding, a classy vintage entry can work if it’s a purely western wedding.
• Vintage cars work best with vintage or retro themes.
• However, it will not go with a contemporary style wedding.
• It is also good to showcase the quirky individuality of the couple during the entrance.

What to choose?

Antique vehicles have a higher value according to the rarity. The most common vintage cars include Rolls Royce, Jaguar Sedans, Bentley, Mercedes, limousines, Buick, Chevrolet Phaeton, Ford V8, Ford B, Dodge Brother and Eagle.

When you are choosing cars, make sure you choose according to your style and personality. For example, if it is a classy modern wedding, limousines suit better. And what if it is a royal Indian? A Dodge Brother would be a great choice.

Cars manufactured from the period of 1919 to 1930 are considered truly vintage. But on the broader spectrum, cars which are from 1919 to 1950 are accepted.

Renting vintage cars can be little tricky. So with an experienced wedding planner in place, you could get the best deal and the best model without any effort. No need to book early, get worried about the condition of the car and pay a hefty price as rent.
