Organising wedding transportation in London is what we do well, our local knowledge will help make transit effortless and timely. Transport4Weddings know the city intimately, the bridges, the tunnels and the ferries. We know the shortcuts across the city and the best routes to take depending on what time of day it is.
But in the sprawling metropolis that is London, even the best laid plans can be hijacked and there are a few elements that the bride and groom should consider when planning their wedding day in the city.
Peak Hour
When planning a wedding in London you should consider peak hour congestion. London-siders are all too familiar with the chaos that can cause 30 minute hop across town into a two hour sojourn.
Officially the peak hours are: 6.30am - 9.30am and 4.30am - 6.30pm, but that is a guideline only and certainly not at weekends. For instance Pacific Highway on a Saturday morning is a notorious nightmare.
Events
Wedding transport in London can also be a nightmare if a big event is on. London is famous its vibrant events and festivals, world famous sporting meetings, parades, marathons and charity fun runs.
Any top event or attraction in the city could put your travel plans for your wedding day well behind schedule. Such events can cause road closures, delays and packed traffic. It is a good idea to check on big sporting venues such as London Olympic Park and the SCG and factor in any possible delays.
Tolls
Tolls are a modern day blight on London’s traffic, not only because of the charge but the time it sometimes take to negotiate them. Some transportation companies will charge extra for these tolls, and this is an unrelated charge. Transport4Weddings will factor in the actual toll charge and no higher.
London’s Water
The iconic city of London has a dazzling waterfront and because of this there can be severe delays. Water transport can be an option but just getting to the harbourside might be just as big a pain. Again Transpot4Weddings will factor a charge in for a combination of road together with water transport if this suits your plans better.
If you are planning your wedding in London soon, then remember to place the transport logistics high on your list. Contact Transport4Weddings today to discuss your options and start planning now.
