Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should we book our trolley, and how do we do
it?
Usually bookings are made between 8 to 14 months in advance of your
wedding date. However, call now to see if your special date is still
available. Summer dates sell out faster. Many couples decide on
their wedding date based on trolley availability. Plan ahead to
ensure your special wedding date.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How much does it cost and how do I pay?
A $50.00 (US dollars) date retainer fee paid by credit card will
secure your trolley date. The balance is not due until the day of
the wedding in the form of a credit card, cash or cashier's check.
The $50.00 date retainer fee is subtracted from your total balance
due.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What if we need additional package time on the trolley?
No problem. If you
need more time, it can be purchased after the initial 1st hour, in 1
hour increments of $100 per 1 hour.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How long will we need the trolley for on our wedding day?
The average time a couple books the trolley for is usually between 4
and 6 hours in order to enjoy a stress free day without being rushed
or late. The contract time usually covers the time from one hour
prior to the ceremony/church up to the start of the reception
cocktail hour or a half-hour after the start of the cocktail hour.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do the bride and groom usually arrive early to the reception
hall?
No, actually a lot of the couples arrive up to one half-hour later
in order to make a "grand entrance". Additionally, the reception
hall will not open the room or bar early or until the contracted
start time of the cocktail hour. This usually means that the bridal
party will be waiting in the lobby or going off to a local bar until
the reception hall is ready.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How many people does the trolley hold?
We can transport up to 24 adults comfortably, with 2 seats reserved
for the bride's dress.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do the videographer and photographer usually ride on the trolley?
Usually not since after the ceremony the bridal party will travel to
a serene location for pictures, and afterwards, the
video/photographer will need to go to the reception hall to set up
their equipment for the receiving line and portraits. Of course, you
photographer is more than welcome to ride along should that better
fit your plans.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is there any commercial advertising inside or outside of the
trolley?
NO! The only sign on our trolleys is a "Just Married" sign for you.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Are there seat belts on the trolley?
No. Like many other forms of public transportation (school buses,
buses, trains, etc.), seat belts are not required in the State of
Tennessee.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can we bring drinks onto the trolley?
Absolutely! You are welcome to bring a cooler filled with drinks.
We recommend deep fluted drink-ware to avoid an possible 'splash'
accidents to the bride's gown.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can we bring food onto the trolley?
Yes. We highly recommend it. It is unlikely that the bridal party
has eaten anything but donuts and coffee for breakfast and they will
be in the ceremony at lunchtime. We suggest pre-ordering and
arranging with a friend or relative to pick up individually wrapped
sub sandwiches, cut into 3 or 4 inch pieces, from a local restaurant
or store near the ceremony/church. The friend or relative can drop
the food off with the trolley driver during the ceremony or
immediately afterwards while the bridal party is inside taking
pictures. This will eliminate the bridal party's need to stop at a
fast food restaurant, which will waste anywhere from 20 to 45
minutes of time on the trolley.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you have an all white wedding trolley?
No. On purpose, we have green and gold trolleys so that the bride
will stand out and be the center of attention in her beautiful
dress. The trolley stands out elegantly and independently while
providing a beautiful backdrop for pictures that do not take away
from the bridal party.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does your company negotiate prices?
No. We publicly advertise our prices for all to see and benefit
from. We truly believe we are the very best wedding trolley service
in the industry. Let us also point out to you that "if other
companies compromise or negotiate their prices, they will most
likely also compromise their service". Don't let that happen to you
on your wedding day!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What happens if it rains on the date of my wedding?
Our trolleys can be enclosed with clear vinyl windows so it is
always comfortable on the trolley. Additionally, the driver has an
oversized umbrella he can use to escort each guest out of the
trolley to their destination. |
