If getting married at the reception hall is it


Necessary to have limos? Did anybody not have limos for their wedding?

We didn't have limos, it was just an expense we didn't need, we did have a car service the next day come get us from the Inn to bring us to the airport for our HM.

We had limos to bring us from my house to the hall and to bring me back to change. They didn't charge us for a minimum time. We had 1 white stretch, 1 black stretch and a town car. Cavalier Limo-cost us about $600

I have limo for my pick up with my wedding party. I felt that was the easiest way for me to coordinate everybody.

I would say if you do not need it don't get it. It is just one way to save $!!

the chapel and my hall are about 100yds apart, and i'm getting ready at the hall, so no need for limos. don't think we'll be getting one, and i really don't think you have to. for me its another area i can save money in. we might rent a nice, fun get-away car for the weekend though. for most cases, renting a car is cheaper than having a limo for X hours, plus i know WAY too many girls who are late because of waiting for the limo.

My friend got married at Flowerfield and just had 2 limos to drive them from their houses to the reception place. A white one for the girls and a black one for the guys.

I am getting married at a church, but if I were getting married in the hall, I would want to drive up in a limo. That way, everyone will know it's you and it will look nice too!

We did not get limos. It was one of the things we did not feel was needed. We did have a car service come and take us from the reception to our home. I think it cost $30 including tip.

We didn't have limos. My dad drove us from Staten Island to our hall in LI.

We had limos because we all got ready at a hotel, then went to Planting Fields for photos, and then to the hall for the ceremony. I could have had everyone drive, but there were a lot of us and none of us are familiar with LI. I didn't need anyone getting lost!

No, I'm getting ready at home and bringing my dress and putting it on in the bridal suite. I'll be driving myself and my MOH. No bridal party. Plus, we'd feel pressure to take care of FH's sister from Wisconsin as her family of 5 will fly in with no car. It's an unnecessary expense to me.

We're not having limos...we're paying for the wedding party to stay at the Harrison House the night of the wedding instead.

A friend of mine got married at the reception site and they didn't use limos. He had left his car at the hotel and went over with the groomsmen and his bride arrived at the site I believe with her mother. They later took the shuttle back to the hotel and his car was there for them the following day.

We're not getting limos, we definitely felt that it was a place were we could save some money!

Re: If getting married at the reception hall is it

we are having the ceremony and reception at the same place and not having limos. I'm getting ready at the bridal suite there, and FH lives around the corner so it works out. I think we may have a limo at the end of the reception just to take FH and I to our hotel in the city.
