The Wedding
As each wedding is individual I tailor my service to ensure your wedding day is unique.
The wedding carriage is fairly modern, but built on traditional lines. It can carry up to 4 people so the bride may travel with her bridesmaids and escort if she wishes. There is an overhead canopy to offer protection in the event of inclement weather which still allows the bride to see and be seen.
We can use one or two of our magnificent Shire horses, the gentle giants of the horse world. There is no maximum distance that these horses are capable of traveling but when deciding upon horse drawn transport you must consider the time it takes a horse to cover the distance, walking comfortably at about three and half miles an hour and trotting at about six.
If the initial start point is a long way from the marriage destination I am happy to meet you part way along the route so you are still able to arrive in style. I am able to transport you from your marriage ceremony to your reception, however if the distance is prohibitive, I will take you part way to a pre arranged meeting point. Should you wish to take a particular route please enclose detailed information with your booking form or e mail me on the link below.
Most weddings follow a similar format, but if you want to do something different or unusual then please send me an e mail. In the past we have been asked to travel to different venues for photographs or return to the reception later in the evening to collect the bride and groom (obviously in the dark we cannot travel far and this is more of a photo opportunity).
What to do now
Send me an e mail or give me a call to discuss your special day. A deposit of £200 is required to secure the date and we will need that sending with the booking form as soon as possible, however as some days are very popular it always better to have contacted me first.
