Kids are most welcome to travel with us in most of our cars. Some of our cars however do not have rear seat belt capabilities and by law, the NSW Motor Traffic Act states that all children under 7 year of age must travel in a childrens car seat. This means all capsules are a no go unfortunately.
In this case the amount of stops we do is entirely by you. We will be fully prepared for wet weather gear such as umbrellas, towels, ponchos and wet weather mat for wiping your feet. We recommend speaking with your reception venue to organise some covering for when exiting the cars.
If there is severe weather forecast for your wedding day or server weather comes suddenly, a decision will be made on a case by case basis. We will not travel if its hailing or forecast to hail.
Our cars are well maintained to ensure they are running well and won’t break down. However, if by chance this occurs we have a network of cars that we can rely on to get you to your wedding on time.
If you or one of your guests scratches, dents or damages the car in any way you will be liable for all charges associated with fixing the damage. Further details of this are covered in the contract agreement.
You sure can. We are happy to work with you on a customisable options that sits within your budget.
We understand that things happen, so 5 or 10 minutes over won't concern us. But sometimes our cars have 2 bookings in 1 day, so we would charge you $150ph for every 30mins you go over time. If this is a concern, we recommend you pre-book extra time as this will work out much cheaper.

Sheryl, Thanks you so very much for your kind words. Going above and beyond for brides on their wedding day comes very easy when we have such wonderful people like you in our vintage cars. It was a pity the weather but glad we found a time to reschedule for some make up photos in the coming weeks. Will see you soon!!

Get Expert AdviceCan we request a specific route for our wedding car to take?
Hi, wondering if this is a reasonable or usual request of our wedding car drivers?
Sweet Rides
Im sure many providers will agree this is fine. However, alternate routes may mean longer times and so there needs to be a plan discussed prior to booking to ensure the cars arrive on time to take this longer route.
What happens if our chauffeur is sick on the wedding day?
G'day, curious what happens if our driver is unwell on our wedding day or our car isn't working on the day. Are there contingency plans for this sort of thing?
Sweet Rides
There will always be a driver avaialble for you. We have backup cars available but getting to you in a timely manner will depend on when and where it breaks down. With us, although our cars are meticulously maintained our cars that are over 50 years old and they can certainly break down. Thankfully this is ony happened once. We have agreement in place that ensures we are both covered should something go wrong. The other factor to consider is weather when booking classic cars becuase it may be too dangerous/unsafe to drive them. Hope this helps!
Who goes in what car?
I'm trying to figure out how many cars to get and who goes in what car to the ceremony and then to the reception? Does the couple go separately to the ceremony and then join the bridal party in the car to the reception? It's so confusing!
Sweet Rides
Hi there,
You can do things however you like really. Ive found amny weddings to decide this based on coast. The "standard" way is that the groom and groomsman woud go in 1 or 2 cars (depending on numbers) and get to the ceremony around 20-30min early. Then the bride, brides father and bridesmaids get to the cermeony on time and travel in 1 or 2 cars (depending on numbers).
After the cermemony, you can then decide if just bride & groom go to photos or the whole bridal party. It all comes down to price really. Although cars seat 5 we need to account for your driver, so we can only take 4 guests iin all our vintage cars so if you have more then 2 bridesmaids you would need 2 cars. The groom, groomsman need to be 5 or more to warrant taking 2 cars.
Another smart way is to have a limousine for the brides group to the ceremony which is then used to take the bridal party in to photos so the bride & groomm can travel in the vintage car that btought the boys to the ceremony.
If you would like more info or for a quote based on your bridal party numbers and requirements, feel free to get in touch.
Regards
Victor - Sweet Rides
