Every wedding is different and consequently as little as one car can work fine or as many as you want can be used depending on how elaborate the wedding is. If you decide to use one car, the main bridal car can pick up the groom and party and transport him to the church. It can then return for the bridesmaids and bride by making two more separate runs to the church / Registry office. The bridal car will then make one run to the reception which means the bridal party have to make their own way. This system works fine when the church and pick up’s are in the same location. Problems arise if there is a distance between the church and pick up locations. This is because the grooms party and bridesmaids can be left waiting for long periods of time for the one car to make all the runs necessary.
Therefore a lot of people will chose two cars. The main car will collect the bride with the second collecting the groomsmen and bridesmaids; again depending on distance. With this arrangement, The Bride and groom travel to the reception in one car and the bridal party in the other.
Some weddings use three cars. This is most popular where a wedding has a lot of bridesmaids and groomsmen, too many to fit into one limousine. In this instance, the norm is to allocate one car for the bride, one for the grooms party and one for the bridesmaids.
Yes the roof on the open top Daimler Limousines can be raised or lowered in a matter of seconds. When it is raised it acts the same as a closed roof car. There is a slight lip built in to the roof also so that the wind doesn’t enter the car when it is driving along with the roof down. Brides can rest assured that their expensive hair do will not be ruined before they get to the church.

Some weddings are designed with certain colour schemes running through them and the colour of everything is important. If you are only using one wedding car, we suggest that the colour is relatively unimportant as the car will stand on it’s own merit. If you are choosing more than one car, colour becomes more important as you don’t want the colours of the two cars to clash. To this end, we suggest that you do not book two bridal cars as it can create confusion as to which is the bridal car and which is the second car. You can check out our “suggested themes” area of our website for some ideas.
We recommend always viewing the cars you book. There are a number of reasons for this. If you have only viewed photographs, there is no way of telling how old these photos are and while a car may look great in a picture, it may look terrible in the flesh. There are also many operators that will hire cars to you that they do not own. These are the same people that will walk away from you in the event of anything going wrong on the day.
It is therefore very important that you see all the cars you intend to hire at the vendors premises. Finally, always sit into the cars you are intending to hire. A lot of vintage cars develop a musty smell inside if they are not looked after and on the day, this smell will still be there. Finally certain wedding cars that look huge outside are actually very small inside. A bride with a large dress must make sure there is enough room inside the car to enter and exit comfortably.
Included at any price quoted at New Ireland Limousines is: The car, a uniformed driver, Ribbons on the cars, a photo stop en route to the reception.
Yes there is a price difference when hiring at New Ireland Limousines. We are based in Baldoyle and the further our car has to travel from base, the more expensive the charge that applies.
The vast majority of people in Ireland only get married once and so don’t generally know that much about wedding cars. Most people straight away think of Rolls Royce, Daimlers and Bentleys when you ask them to name wedding cars. We supply Daimler limousines in open top and closed roof formats and Mercedes Limousines. You can check out our wedding car section on our website for more details. The Daimler limousines are Bridal cars only and can take up to seven passengers (open tops six passengers).
They are available in several different colour schemes. They are a four door limousine (as opposed to the 6 door Mercedes Limousine) and really come into their own by the space afforded to the passengers in the back. One can literally walk through the back of these cars even with a dress with a big train. The Mercedes Limousine is more modern and have six doors to allow easy access to the middle three seats. They can be used as a main or secondary car. We also offer American superstretch limousines that can accomodate up to 8 passengers and come in whi
