Initially, hiring a limousine may seem extravagant, but when you look a little closer things start to make sense. When celebrating something special like a birthday, anniversary or a wedding, you want to share the moment with your family and friends. In today's hectic lifestyle, everyone seems to live their own life, so spending time in a group is precious.
Then consider the practicalities; organizing an event isn't easy, it doesn't matter whether you are arranging transport for a day trip, or wanting to arrive at a specific destination at a set time, traveling together has so many benefits;
- Everyone will arrive at the same time, nobody will get lost.
- The party and excitement starts the moment you're picked up.
- Nobody has to worry about making their own arrangements.
- Everyone can have a drink to toast the celebration.
Having looked at the practical aspects, lets consider the emotional side;-
Our media is fascinated by celebrity and on a daily basis we now share in the lives of the rich and famous, watching through magazines, internet forums and TV shows. Limousines are part of that celebrity world and hiring a limo evokes fantasy, glamour and mystery. Whenever a limousine comes to a stop, its natural curiosity to watch and see if anyone famous gets out. Dark windows create an air of mystery. Have you ever wondered who's inside the vehicle?
The blackened windows hide the glitz of the interior, where specialist coach builders have designed sumptuous seating and integrated the latest technology to create ceiling to floor light shows with sound systems that will amaze.
What style of limousine can you choose? Although Coventry is the heart of the motor industry in the UK, limousines tend to be American; Traditional Lincoln limos seat 8 people, available in white or silver, provide that touch of elegance for weddings and anniversaries. For larger parties consider the Ford Excursion Monster Jeep which seats 12 people and the super stretched Hummer H2 which can seat 16. (The largest limousine in the UK).
Large 'party' vehicles are the perfect accompaniment to an office outing, popular destinations being the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, Ascot as well as other local race courses such as Stratford and Warwick Races. Revellers nights are also popular, taking groups between Coventry and Broad Street in Birmingham, where VIP night club entry and queue jumping arrangements can be made.
Stag and Hen parties tend to travel further, taking advantage of the party atmosphere and excitement that the champagne, light show and sound system creates.
It's so important that any limousine you hire looks the part and is in perfect condition, everyone wants to record the moment with a photograph. So check that any limo you hire will be valeted before picking you up and guaranteed to turn up well in advance of the scheduled time.
Nobody wants the additional stress of wondering if the transport will turn up in the build up to a wedding, party or flight transfer. A recent story I'd like to share concerns a group of youngsters from Sidney Stringer school , who wanted to hire a limo for their end of year school prom. After phoning to view the vehicle, they walked nearly five miles from the city centre, before getting lost and asking for directions. Coventry Limo Hire, which is a family run business based in Allesley, sent a limo out to collect them, look round the vehicles and then gave them a ride back into Coventry city centre, (as they had no money). Those kids hired a black Hummer to turn their dream into reality and by coincidence a photograph was published in the Coventry Telegraph showing them arriving at their school prom.
So limousines hold many surprises and it doesn't really matter where you live. Whilst Coventry has many brilliant places to visit, hiring a limo anywhere in the world is as much about how you arrive, as where you arrive
Just make sure when you hire a limo you ask a few basic questions as not all companies offer the same level of service.
Always check that the vehicle you order is the one you will get and ask for a guarantee that the pick up time will be honoured and that the vehicle will be clean when it arrives.
