Wedding Wheels, Old School

Kids headed back to school today, many of them riding classic yellow & black school buses.  Those buses aren't just for school days anymore.  They make for a quirky wedding getaway too!

Wedding Wheels, VW-style

Welcome to the August edition of Wedding Wheels, the fabulous series celebrating the cool & unusual getaway cars Bride & Grooms choose for their wedding.  Let's give VW some love!  Classic Volkswagen buses are just too cool.  & to spy them in weddings as the getaway car?  It's just the coolest!! 

Turquoise, purple, cream, orange & peach- oh my!  I adore the colorful, vintage charm the VW bus adds to a wedding getaway.  So fun!

Wedding Wheels, Tubes

The tandem bicycle wedding getaway from yesterday's Mackinac Island wedding was pretty grand but this decorated inner tube wedding getaway may take the prize as the most fun & the most original wedding getaway of all!  So summery, so perfect.  All you need is a cute bathing suit, Just Married inner tubes & a scenic river.  Instead of changing into a formal going away outfit, slip into your bathing suit & head for the water.  Jump into your inner tubes & float your way into happily ever after!

Want to see more creative grand departures from weddings?  Official Wedding Wheels post coming next week!

{Sneak Peek} Jennifer & Bill

Friday, I am so glad to see you!  Our first Friday in August.  August, my friends.  Wow, where is summer going?!  Before summer leaves us in the blink of an eye, let's take a sneak peek at next Wedding Wednesday:

Mackinac Island is the beautiful, quaint location of this destination wedding.  Just imagine a sweet ceremony followed by the Bride & Groom leisurely riding a tandem bicycle & enjoying the island.  Now you have a pretty good idea of what the intimate, chill wedding is all about.  To see the full beauty, tune in next Wedding Wednesday!

Enjoy your weekend!

Wedding Wheels, Vintage Checker Taxicab (aka my favorite!)

Hailing a taxi & being in New York City go hand-in-hand.  It's only natural that many New Jersey & New York couples opt for a taxi on their wedding day.  Even though the last one was removed from service in 1999, the old world charm of a vintage Checker taxicab is a popular choice.  Fortunately, you can rent vintage Checker taxicabs for weddings, like I did (see photo above!).  I'm not the only one, I frequently spy vintage Checker taxicabs in New Jersey & New York weddings & today's Wedding Wheels is all about those classic, bright yellow beauties!

Just as a vintage Checker taxicab is forever a symbol of New York City, it will forever look right at home in New Jersey & New York weddings.  Once a classic, always a classic.
