Limo help

OK - this is one of the places where I want to save some money. Can anyone recommend a reliable limo service that is not too expensive??

Thanks,
Vicki

Re: Limo help

They are all ABOUT the same price. Im using Royalty whose prices were a tad less than the others that I had contacted. But they all know the going rate so they price fix. My only advice there is to haggle for a lower price/more hours/extras etc...

If you want to save some $$, consider alternatives to getting where you need to be.

In NYC, you can take a cab or rent those bicycle rickshaws or a variety of other fun ways to arrive.

Re: Limo help

I used NJL - I found them to be about $200 less than everyone else's quote. And they were very flexible since I neede dthe limo for 5 hours rather than the usual 3.

Our limo driver was very nice and helpful the day of, and everyone I dealt with was great.

Re: Limo help

Ultimate Class. We booked them two days before our wedding. They didn't give us the run-around and actually gave us our lowest quote right at the start! We checked out 5 or 10 companies and the prices were insane. We only needed the limo to take us from the hotel to the catering hall were we had both the ceremony and reception. It was about a 10-20 minute ride and some places were charging over $600.

Dealt with Matt.
