The hire covers the journeys you specify, most commonly the arrival at the ceremony and the drive to the reception. The roof decision is made on the day, by you, with the weather in front of you rather than a forecast from a fortnight earlier. ### Who Books It Couples whose wedding photography matters to them, particularly where the ceremony or reception venue has a drive, a coastline or a Gower backdrop worth being in. It is also booked for the couple's departure, where the open top gives the confetti and send-off shots that a saloon car cannot. ### When It Is Needed Overwhelmingly Saturdays from late spring to early autumn, with a smaller number of Friday and bank holiday weddings. Those dates are typically reserved a year or more ahead. Winter weddings can still use the car with the roof up, and the ribbons and arrival are unaffected. ### Why the Car Choice Affects the Whole Day The wedding car is the only supplier whose failure moves every other timing. A late arrival delays the ceremony, the photographs, the meal and the evening reception in sequence. Booking a chauffeured car with the route pre-driven, the timings written down and an early arrival built in is the cheapest insurance on the day. ### What's Included - Bride and groom arrivals - Ribbons in your colours - Roof up or down on the day - Early arrival for photographs - Timings agreed with your venue ## Get a Fixed Price What Goes Wrong Without It ## The Three Mistakes That Cost Groups Their Night ### Assuming good weather in Wales An open top car with no roof plan is a gamble on a day that cannot be repeated. Ours goes up or down on the morning, so the booking works in either forecast. ### Booking the car after the venue is full Peak Saturdays go first and there is one of each vehicle. Couples who fix the date and then leave the car until six months out routinely find their first choice already taken. ### Not agreeing the photograph window Photographs with the car take longer than anyone expects. If the chauffeur is only booked to the minute of the ceremony, the shots you wanted quietly disappear from the schedule. Our Process ## From Enquiry to Home Again, in Five Steps Step 1 ### Tell Us the Date and the Route You send the date, the pick-up address, the venue or venues and roughly how many people are travelling. That is everything we need to check availability against the fleet diary. Step 2 ### Vehicle Match and Fixed Price We match your group size and occasion to the right vehicle and quote one fixed price for the whole journey. The figure you agree is the figure you pay, no per-mile surprises after the event. Step 3 ### Itinerary Confirmed in Writing Pick-up time, pick-up point, stops and the return time are written down and confirmed back to you, so every passenger and every parent knows exactly what happens and when. Step 4 ### Chauffeur Arrives Early Your licensed chauffeur arrives ahead of the booked time so photographs can be taken before you set off, and so a late start never eats into the time you have paid for. Step 5 ### Door-to-Door and Home Again You are driven door to door, the driver stays in contact through the night where the booking includes multiple legs, and the agreed return journey brings the whole group home together.

In Detail ## Open Top Wedding Cars: Specification, Routes and Variations ### Journeys Couples Book The standard booking is the bride's journey to the ceremony plus the couple's journey to the reception. Where both are at one venue, couples often use the time for a short drive for photographs instead, a loop along the seafront or into the Gower lanes with the photographer following. Departure-only bookings are available for evening send-offs, and second journeys for parents or the bridal party can be added if the schedule allows. ### Working With Your Photographer Photographers plan around light and around the venue's schedule. We take their timings, not ours, and the chauffeur positions the car where the shot needs it rather than where the car park directs it. If you want specific shots, the door being opened, the drive-away, a roadside stop on the Gower, say so before the day and the timings will allow for them. ### Venues and Access Swansea and Gower wedding venues range from city-centre hotels to farm and coastal sites down single-track lanes. We check access and parking at the quote stage, including where the car can wait between journeys. Gravel drives, cattle grids and tight gateways are all normal here; knowing about them in advance is what keeps the schedule intact. ### Open Top vs Excalibur The open top car is about the sky, the photographs and the drive. The Excalibur is about the statement the car itself makes on arrival, with chrome, side pipes and whitewall tyres. Couples choosing between them usually decide on which they want in the album. Both carry ribbons in your colours and both are limited to one wedding per slot, so the date decides as much as the taste does. ### Related Wedding Cars Excalibur Wedding Cars ### Also Available in Swansea Candy Apple Party Bus; 16 seatsBlack & Silver Party Bus; 16 seatsPink Limousine; 16 seatsWhite Limousine; 16 seatsNationwide CollectionFull FleetHomeContact Common Questions ## Before You Book What happens if it rains on our wedding day?+The roof goes up. The decision is made on the morning with the weather in front of us, and it changes nothing else about the booking; the ribbons, the timings and the chauffeur are the same either way. Can the car take us to a photograph location between venues?+Yes, if it is built into the timings at booking. Tell us the location and roughly how long the photographer wants and we will price the extra window rather than squeezing it on the day. How much does wedding car hire cost in Swansea?+Price depends on the vehicle, the date, the start time and the route. Peak Saturdays, prom season and December are the busiest and price accordingly. We quote one fixed figure for the whole booking before you commit, so there is nothing to settle afterwards. How far in advance should we book?+As early as the date is fixed. Summer weddings, prom season and December weekends are the first dates to disappear, and there is only one of each vehicle. If your date is close, call us anyway, a cancellation or an earlier slot on the same day is often still available. How long does the hire last?+You book the vehicle for a set window rather than a set mileage, and that window is agreed in writing at booking. If you want a wider window, say so at the quote stage and we will price it then rather than on the night. Are your drivers licensed?+Yes. Every journey is driven by a licensed, professional chauffeur who knows Swansea's roads, venues and drop-off points. Licensing details for the specific vehicle and driver assigned to your booking can be confirmed in writing on request. Can we play our own music?+Yes. You connect your own phone and run your own playlist for the whole journey. Nobody is stuck with a radio station or a driver's compilation. Do you cover areas outside Swansea?+Swansea and the surrounding area is home, and we regularly run longer journeys including airport runs and out-of-county venues. Tell us where the journey starts and finishes and we will quote it as one fixed price. What happens if our plans change?+Tell us as soon as you know. Time changes, route changes and passenger-number changes can usually be absorbed if we hear about them before the day; changes made on the night are far harder because the vehicle may be committed elsewhere. When can we speak to someone?+Our office is open Monday to Friday, 9am to 6pm, and closed at weekends. Enquiries sent through the form outside those hours are answered on the next working day, so send the date rather than waiting to call. ## Ready to Lock In Your Date?
