Getting a limo service for a wedding is the most ideal form of transportation for the bride going to the wedding and a limo as well to send off the couple to their honeymoon. In most cases when the wedding and reception are in different locations, the entire wedding party would be transported via limousines.
You don’t get to ride a limo everyday and what to do inside one is something that you need to know and find out. Common courtesies as to who tips the driver, what to do and what not to do inside. Are there any restrictions of any sort when riding a chauffeured limousine? These are just a few of the usual questions that passengers usually wonder about. So here are some tips when riding a limousine.
Who pays for the limo?
The day of the wedding, a limousine drives the bride to the church or the venue for the ceremonies. Who pays for that? When bringing the bride to the park for pictorials to the ceremony? How about the limousine for the wedding party to drive them to the reception? And how about the ride to the airport transfer for the honeymoon?
Usually, it is commonplace that the bride’s family shoulder the expense of the limo service for this. It is usually pre-arranged and may be part of the wedding package. But nowadays, there are no hard rules covering this. Traditionally, transportation for the bride is covered by the bride’s family and the honeymoon ride is covered by the groom. But today, whatever options they choose if they both want to pay for it, then that would do as well.
Limousine Etiquette
Maybe you’ve seen it on TV and heard about it that other than transporting customers to the venue, riding a limo has added perks inside. So, what to do about it, right? First off, when riding a limo, honor the one who paid for it by giving them the best seat. Don’t open the liquor cabinet just yet! Wait for the host to offer you some refreshments. Don’t go guzzling the drinks just because it comes with the service. Sticking your head out of the moon roof is a big no no. Same with sticking your head out of the windows either. Allow the driver to service you by letting them open the door and close the door for you. This is part of their service, to pamper their customers, so let them do these things for you.
Tipping the Driver
It is a must of tip the limousine driver. You need to have cash ready to give to him once you step out of the car. The driver works in a service industry thus tips are expected. Tips may or may not be included in the contract but either way, always tip the driver.

The Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud is an automobile produced by Rolls-Royce from April 1955 to March 1966. It was the core model of the Rolls-Royce range during that period. The Silver Cloud replaced the Silver Dawn and was, in turn, replaced by the Silver Shadow. The J. P. Blatchley design was a major change from the pre-war models and the highly derivative Silver Dawn. As part of a range rationalisation the Bentley S1 is very similar, apart from its radiator grill.
