Spring & Autumn Go First
Over two-thirds of 2026 weddings fall in spring or autumn. October is the busiest month, followed by March and November — so Saturdays in those months are always the first to fill.

Relax
Your chauffeur arrives early, manages the timing and the doors, and waits while you take your photos.
One Car or the Whole Party?
Cars per Australian wedding, 2026.
- The bride and a parent to the ceremony, then the newlyweds together to photos and the reception.
- Bridesmaids in their own car, so the whole party arrives together and on cue.
- The groom and groomsmen if they're getting ready somewhere else.
- Guests in a Sprinter between hotel, ceremony and reception — and nobody has to drive after the toasts.
How Couples Arrive
Classic cars still lead, but more couples now choose modern luxury — or pair a statement car for themselves with matching sedans for the bridal party.

8 Questions to Ask Your Car Provider
Late arrivals, cars that don't match the photos and surprise charges are the most common wedding car complaints. Ask these, whoever you book with.
- Is the car in the photos the exact car we'll get?
- What time will the chauffeur arrive before pickup?
- What's included — ribbons, drinks, waiting time for photos?
- How is extra time charged if we run late?
- Who is our contact on the day, and how do we reach them?
- What happens if a car has a problem on the day?
- Will we get a written run sheet with every stop and time?
- How much is the deposit, and when is the balance due?
