Variety in Limo Prices
in Connecticut
So it's about 4 months until my wedding and I wasn't planning on doing a limo. However, we are getting ready at my parents' house which is about 20 minutes from the venue. Hair and Makeup are also coming there. I was talking to my MOH about it and it might be worth it to get a limo to bring us to the venue then go pick up the guys. I'm thinking this because every person in the bridal party has a significant other not in the bridal party so it would avoid having 2 cars at the wedding. At the bridal show this weekend I talked to 2 limo companies and when I got home asked for a quote from 2 more companies. I only need about an hour and a half of service. These are my options:
#1 - They are getting 2 brand new limos in April, the one I would use is a 9 passenger. They do partial packages so it would come to $213 with tax and gratuity.
#2 - For an hour it would have been $399 and for an hour and a half $499. CRAZY!
#3 - They do a 3 hour minimum and it would be $501 for an 8 passenger.
#4 - $499 for 4 hours.
Talk about variety in prices. Goes to show you should shop around! Guess I know what I will probably be doing. I'm just waiting to hear back from my girls what would be easier. So far 2 said it would be helpful, my MOH probably wouldn't use it because she needs her daughter's car seat, and I'm waiting to hear back from 2 more. Anyone have any great companies they want to recommend?

My Ovulation Chart
[QUOTE]@Carebear Sunset limo was at Woodwinds bridal show and I talked to them also, it looks like they have the lowest rate I have seen. But I haven't come across any reviews for them. I went to their website and it is not updated on the home page it has Hurricane Irene update. So I would be cautious.

I went to the website too. They were very nice at the bridal show and very responsive when I emailed and even sent me pics of the new limos. I guess, we would be getting picked up at 5:30 and the wedding isn't until 7 and it's about 20 mins away. Even if it does run late, I think I would still have plenty of time.
I contacted Abbey Road and they said $350 for 1.5 hours (includes tax, tip and fuel).
