Heritage Horse-drawn Carriage Company
|
Our horse-drawn Wedding Carriage Service provides transport by elegant Victoria Phaeton Carriages, complete with brass lanterns, goldtone upholstery, and uniformed driver.
The Victoria Phaeton Carriage can comfortably transport four (4) persons in classic style.
Our carriages operate within a modest 5 kilometre radius of any wedding ceremony location and are available for a duration of two (2) hours for transport and photographic purposes.
It is customary for our wedding carriages to rendezvous with hire wedding cars or limousines to transfer the bride
into the horse-drawn carriage for the final leg of the journey to the wedding ceremony.
Of course a mix of classic horse-drawn carriage and vintage transport makes quite an impression....
All our vehicles are fitted with full weatherproofing when necessary and provide clear visibility and total protection. Clients will also enjoy complete peace of mind in the knowledge our service is covered by professional public liability insurance.
However, for a more rustic style of transport.....

Our ten seater fully upholstered wagon offers the entire bridal party charming, yet completely comfortable, transport.
Of course, this vehicle is drawn by either a pair of gentle well-mannered horses or a single Clydesdale horse.
The driver is appropriately uniformed in black Akubra-style hat, trousers and waistcoat with a white shirt.
The following photographs are courtesy of newly-weds Tamara and Brendan Buckle who selected the Clydesdale-drawn wagon for their special heritage style wedding day

Whilst every effort is made to fulfill the requests of the bride and groom, safety is of paramount concern and some locations may be considered unsuitable and alternate arrangements suggested.
Each location will be judged for suitability on its individual merits.
