What is everyone doing with parents as far as limos. I plan on getting a navigator or truck type limo which I am not sure how much they go for if anyone knows, but I dont think my bridal party will be too thrilled to have the parents join them, is everyone getting a seperate car for parents, this can get a little pricey!

Re: Limos and parents
After speaking with my parents we decided to have them drive on their own. We were going to get them a limo but then we realized that we would have to get them a limo for home too b/c they wouldn't have a car there. They felt more comfortable having there own car there anyway.

We arranged for a town car to pick up and drop off my mother. FH's parents said they would drive themselves.

Re: Limos and parents
we are using a 14 passenger for us and party and then I have an 8 passenger (b/c they don't have a white 6 passenegr) pick up mine and FH parents. It'll come back at the end of the night and pick us up and then take my parents home. it was worth the extra $350.

Re: Limos and parents
We are using one big limo (18 person Navigator) for our entire party. I suppose having the parents in another car would be more ideal but I wasn't about to rent another limo so the bridal party didn't have to deal with our parents.
Im sure a good time will be had in the limo - parents or no.
I offered to get a limo for my parents, but they want to drive their new Town Car...plus they don't drink.
FH's family on the otherhand are getting a 14 passenger limo so that they can drink...they are paying themsleves...

Re: Limos and parents
I told my parents, sorry I would love to get you a car home, but our budget is stretched to the limit. If they wanted to get car service, I would speak to my Limo company to add it onto our contract so they could get a discount, but I think they are all going to drive.

Re: Limos and parents
we are renting a rolls royce & a limousine bus, its awesome! (Ultra Express Coach of Staten Island has BEAUTIFUL LIMO BUSES WITH BATHROOMS and everything in them!) They have ones that hold up to 32 people (which I am getting) this is how i am planning my day: the limo bus will pick up all the guys and bring them to church. it will then come back (5 min away) and pick up all the bridesmaids and my mom and take them to church. my dad & i will go to church in the rolls royce. after we are married, my husband & i will go in the rolls and everyone else into the limo bus and its off to take pics. after the pics, we will let the rolls go and its onto the bus to start the party with our bridal party & my parents (who are totally so cool) on the way to our reception!

Re: Limos and parents
I never thought what to do with my parents! I think we're getting a Rolls Royce and a 10 passenger Lincoln (for the bridal party). I guess I can look into a 6 passenger for the parents.
I think we will drop a couple of cars at the reception hall the night before so people have rides home afterwards.
