We are thinking of doing one large limo and one classy car for me and my parents. Do you think it's weird if the limo comes to my parents place at 3 and takes the girls over to our place to pick FH and the guys up and the whole Bridal party arrive at the same time hopefully at 3:30. And then I show up at 4, in the classy car with my parents and any followers.
Our problem is I will be at my parent's house which is 30 min away from church and FH will be at our house which is 5 min away from the church. If the limo was to pick him up first, he'd get there at 2:30, since the limo would have to be at my place around 3. 2:30 just seems way to early for them to get there.
otherwise the girls can be dropped off at our place and the limo can swing around and get them after they drop the guys off. So confusing
Please let me know your thoughts
TIA

Re: Limo Question????
I'm doing only limo for bridal party and 1 for me and parents
The limo will first pick up FH, his parents, and our Best Man, and drop them off at the church.
Then, the limo will come to my house, along with the specialty limo for me and parents. Those limos will then take us to the church.
This timeline was given to us by our limo company (Royalty).
The groom has to be there early, the bride is normally the last to arrive.

Re: Limo Question????
We have to have 2 limos... Our BP is 26 people... I don't know to much about it, but I'm sure that they will charge extra for the bigger limo afterwards.. For all that, you should just have 2... I would ask the companys professional opinion and go with what they say!

Re: Anyone Only Using One Large Limo???
Try looking into the Limo Buses - I used them for both my daughters weddings and they were so comfortable - you could move around in them easily and i think they sit up to 36 people and they were reasonably price.

I'm doing the same exact thing - saves money & works out perfectly!

But how do that do that, if the limo picks up FH first he'll be dropped off 1 and half hours before the ceremony, seems too early. I don't know what to do.

Re: Anyone Only Using One Large Limo???
I'm having a limo bus for the wedding party. It is picking up the boys first, bringing them to the church (about 20mins away), then it will come to my parent's house, which is right around the corner from the church, and picking up the girls. I got a specialty car for me & my dad to go to the church in, and it is staying until after the ceremony so we can take pictures with it.

Re: Anyone Only Using One Large Limo???
I have 2 limos. One is picking up the guys, dropping them at the church then coming to my house for the girls. the other is for me, my mom and grandparents. After the ceremony the BP(4 people total) are going in 1, and FH and I in the other. My church insists on the guys being there 1 hour before and they don't have a bridal room.
You could do a similar thing but with only 1 and just go with the girls.
I don't know why your FH is saying to pick them up last. GM/ushers need to be there to seat the guests don't they?

Re: Anyone Only Using One Large Limo???
We are actually using one large Limo all day. Me and Fh are seeing each other early at my house right before we leave. So then we will all (with the BP) travel to the photo location together and then to the hall (where the ceremony is).
Our parents are getting their own limos.

Limo picking up Groom and guys and bringing them to church at 5. Girls up at 5:15 and church starts at 5:30. My mom is coming with us (dad passed away) and then getting a ride to RH.

Well for us - we're all pretty close - my parents' house, his parents' house and church are within a 10 mile radius...
So, they'll p/u gms, etc around 245pm - drop at church, then come to me around 305pm - my ceremony starts at 330pm

Re: Anyone Only Using One Large Limo???
The limo we got is big enough to fit the bridal party and us. My parents are taking a separate car altogether.
What is happening is that the limo company is picking me and the girls up first from my house and dropping us off at the reception hall to get ready. Then they're getting FH and GMs and bringing them to the Church. Then they're getting us from the RH and bringing us to the church (they are only about a mile apart from each other). After the wedding they're bringing us all back to the RH. The limo company said that's pretty standard.

All we got is a 56 passenger coach bus. The Bridal party is 25. It is picking the boys up first dopping them off then picking me up and then we are using the bus to help transport out of towners and everone...

this is what we are doing. the limo bus is picking up FH, his parents and the groomsmen at his parents house and dropping them off at the church.
then its coming back to get me, the bridesmaids, my parents and who ever else is there. i figure we are paying by the hour, might as well utilize it.
after the ceremony the entire bridal party and us are going for the pics and to the hall.
