A  LOVE and CARRIAGE Arrive in style with the help of our A-Z guide to wedding transport IS FOR ARRIVAL It’s your big day, make a grand entrance and arrive in style. B IS FOR BUS We don’t mean journeying to your venue on the 12A!

It’s worth exploring as an option when doing your research. E IS FOR ELEGANCE It might sound daft, but whether or not your dress will actually fit into your chosen mode of transport is a serious consideration. If you’ve opted for a princess ballgown, you’ll need plenty of space in order to maintain your poise and dignity as an elegant bride. We recommend a Beauford or Branford, which are incredibly spacious and ooze elegance to boot. We suggest www.chariotschauffeurs.co.uk F IS FOR FLEET To avoid multiple trips, consider how many vehicles you’ll need to carry the bridal party to the ceremony promptly. Investigate companies that can offer at least two vehicles to make the journeys simultaneously. D TRANSPORT 63
