#1 - I know the bridesmaids take the limo to the church, but do the groomsmen and groom take a limo to the church? What if they're staying in different places? Is it easier for them to all get picked up in one spot, or does the limo go pick them up wherever they are?
#2 - after the church, the bride and groom take the Rolls or whatever to get pictures taken, but do the bridesmaids and groomsmen then share a limo (if there are 10 total) or do they stay in separate limos?
#3 - how do the parents get to the church/to the reception, etc? Do they get towncars?
#4 - after the reception, how does everybody get back?
Sorry, I'm so clueless on this stuff

Re: Reeeeeeaaaallly dumb limo questions
Its really a you think - I am personally having the guys picked up at one location and the girls at one location and me in my limo - after the church - me and my husband are taking the Rolls and the bridal party is taking the other limo to take pictures - and our parents are going in the same limo.... and then off to the reception the same way - after the reception we have town cars taking all of us home....

Re: Reeeeeeaaaallly dumb limo questions
We are getting 2 cars. A 1947 Cadillac for me and FH and an 18 passenger super stretch cadillac escalade for bridal party. the Escalade will go to FH's mom's house to pick up the groomsmen (who will have gotten to the house on their own) and take them to the church, then it will come back to my mom's house and meet up with the 1947 Cadillac. My girls (who will be at my mom's house) will go in the Escalade and my parents and I will go in the 1947. After the mass, FH and I will leave in 1947 and entire bridal party will go into the escalade. Parents, etc. will drive in their own cars. We were thinking of getting another car for the parents, grandparents, etc but then we realized that everyone would be stranded so they decided to take their own cars after the mass.
Hope this helps.

Re: Reeeeeeaaaallly dumb limo questions
it all depends on where everyone is getting ready and where they need to go. we're not getting any limos beforehand...just a fancy rolls to take FH and I away after the reception and bring us to the hotel...

Re: Reeeeeeaaaallly dumb limo questions
This is what we are doing.
One limo is going to FI's house to pick up FILs and some of their family and another limo is also going there to pick up FI and GM and bring them all to the church. Once FI and GM are dropped off, that limo is going to come to my house (which is 4 blocks from the church) to pickup BM to bring them to the church. There is going to be a limo at my house to take my mom and some of my family to the church and my dad and I are riding in the Rolls to the church. After church, the whole BP is getting in my limo, my family in another, FI's family in another and us in the Rolls. After the reception, my family is going in one limo, FI's family in another and us in a town car.

Re: Reeeeeeaaaallly dumb limo questions
those are all personal preference, (and your budget too)... my sisters wedding she didnt give the family a limo, and the groom got a ride over to the church.. a solution is have a limo big enough for the whole bridal party, have it pick up the groom bring him to the church then have the limo pick you up.. and most places will throw in a free drop off for the bride and groom after the wedding..
