all of my bridal party and my FH and I could go in one limo to our reception hall from the church. There will be 18 of us in total, and we are going from lynbrook to roslyn (swanclub). Do you think it is too tight to put 18 of us in an 18 passenger escalade

How far of a ride is it? (Sorry...i'm not all that familiar with the areas...I'm a Brooklyn girl)
If it's not too long...I'd say just go with the one limo.

Re: I would like it if...
I have been thinking i would like to do that as well! Although we have less people. But couldnt you just upgrade to a 24 person (not sure if tehy have anything between 18 & 24) I have hear that you want a limo that seats at least 2 more than your total to accomodate your dress and so that people dont have to sit on top of one another. i dont think the difference would be too great to upgrade!

You'll definiely need something bigger then an 18 person vehicle otherwise you'll be squished in and uncomfortable.
They also have bridal buses & trolleys that look cool. They are probably $$ but also roomier.

I agree. I'd call around for a 22 passenger escalade. I originally was going to do that. You need room to breath with 18 people. I visited 3 limo companies to see their escalades and they are all very different (some really were beat up). I have my research if you are interested.

With your dress, you actually count as two people. You don't want to be squished. I think you need something a little bigger. I don't think you want someone to have to ride in the front either. I would definitly go with a 22 - 24 passenger. It's only 25 minutes but if you cramped it will seem like forever. You should be comfortable on your wedding day!! JMO!!

Re: I would like it if...
I want an navigator I have 20 people (3 juniors really tiny girls) the stupid guy i dealt with at one limo company told me I could fit all of us into a 18 passanger then he said 'any place that says they have a 22-24 passanger are lying they dont make them that big' what a dumba$$! I have not looked at these please and lots of girls on here are against m&v limo and excalibur extravaganza have the big suv. We looked at the 32 passanger bus and loved it. REALLY roomie and u could stand straight up. had bathroom (not that u could fit in it with ure dress but it still had one) we really thought that was cool, But who wants to take pictures in front of a big bus??? by the way the bus was $50 more then 18 passanger escalade!

I think you will definitely be too tight! Especially with all the women wearing dresses, you want to have room and be comfortable. Go for the 24 passenger.
