Who rides in the limo or car?

qianar

Hello,I would like to know who rides in the car with the bride and groom on their way to the ceremony? Should the groom's parents ride in his car or should parents have a separate car? Very unsure

LesPaul

Whoever you want to ride in the car. 

What are the logistics of the venue/reception/availability of other transportation/size of limo?

[QUOTE]I don't think it matters. Have whoever you want in the vehicle. We didn't have a rented car. People drove themselves to and from the ceremony site.

This.  You are way overthinking details that don't matter.

Whatever works best logistically.

Its a destination wedding and i wasnt sure not overthinking it but i would hate for his mom to ride in a car with a bunch of men. I kind of figured the parents eould ride seperately.

For what it's worth, in our limo was: bride, groom, moh, bm, and my mom.  Dh's parents drove separately.  You can do whatever you want though.

But maybe his Mom would like to ride to the ceremony with her son since, you know, he is getting married and all.

Riding to the ceremony was me, my dad, and all my bridesmaids.

Yes this is true I think I'm just gonna let her ride with her son he is only child and that can be their moment.

At my sister's wedding my dad and sister drove in a rented Bentley, the bridesmaids and my mom rode in a limo. the guys met at the venue and the limo picked them up there and we drove to the church together. my sister's in laws drove themselves.

At my wedding I think I will just rent a car with my dad and everyone else will meet there.

The people in the limo to the ceremony were me, my husband, and our wedding party (we were coming from doing pictures). We had a shuttle for all of the out of town guests and our immediate families used that to get there from the hotel.

Yes that's what I'm gonna do cuz I only wanted to get 2 cars. Since a DW I'm providing shuttles for everyone else to get to and from

To the ceremony it will be me, my dad and the BMs. Groom and his parents will drive together in their car, and the rest of the GM will carpool and meet at the church. The bridal party (and our photographer) will be in the limo after the ceremony so we can get pics along the way. Parents will drive seperately.
