Our Carriages


The Cinderella
Ours are Top of the line American made custom ordered coaches. Each Cinderella will seat 6-7 full sized adults according to size. We have two Cinderellas available for rental.







The Disney PrincessThe Disney Princess is a unique Victoria style carriage. Also American made it's design was commissioned by Walt Disney artists for a production they were doing of Cinderella in Tokyo Japan. Less than 10 of these unique carriages were made. A mixture of classic Victorian carriage with a hint of flair for the fancy and unique. Will seat up to three adults or Two adults and two small children. The Disney looks really nice adorned in our red velvet matched with our matching horse costume for Baraat.






Fringe Top Royal Wagonette

The Fringe Top Royal Wagonette holds 12-16 passengers depending on size. Pulled by two magnificent draft horses this carriage is excellent for large groups or to deliver all the bridesmaids and groomsmen all at once. The brand new upholstery matches the seats in the Cinderella and its a good match for it. Use both for the grandest entry imaginable. Rear loading and unloading it makes for very nice photos of the guys lending a hand to the the young lady they are escorting. 





Fringe Top Rustic Wagonette

The Fringe Top Rustic Wagonette is perfect for country themed and barn weddings. This carriage seats 8 full sized adults and has the capacity to deliver the bride and her escort, 6 bridesmaids, and a flower child and/or ring bearer in one trip. Brand new oak colored upholstery with burgundy buttons matches the carriage body and frame. Your driver in formal western wear or top hat completes this classic look.

You might be a...


   I swear the commercial carriage industry needs a punch line similar to something like Larry the cable guy had with his famous "You might be a redneck". Only ours would say something different. Something more like "you might be a dumb@$$" The above photo would be a perfect illustration for the phrase. Then we need a follow up one like "you might be a double dumb@$$" and I hate to say it but that could go on from there to triple, quadruple, etc. 

   How many attacks of dumb@ss would you assign to the above photo? I give them a great big fat one for putting a bride in a dress on a hitched horses back in the first place. I give them another for the fact that its half a team. I mean seriously, what could go wrong? right. Its not like she just runs a risk of falling off the horses back to the ground at 17 hands or so. Sitting sidesaddle in wedding gown she could fall backwards between TWO HORSES and have twice the fun! Hey...if she doesn't get stomped or run over by a carriage wheel she might end up with a really cool story to tell her kids one day about how she "rode the pole" between two bolting horses on her wedding day! Assuming of course after that she could still have kids. SMH.  

  Then lets give them another one for using what appears to be the groom for a header. One last dumb@SS award for putting the picture on the internet for everyone that knows all that's wrong with this to see, and everyone who doesn't to possibly emulate. Knowing how these ********* ( well you know) operate I'd bet you a $100 bill that there is nobody in the box and its the carriage driver who is taking the picture. I'd sincerely hope I'd lose that bet, yet... sincerely doubt I would. 

  There is always a full color constant reminder of the amount of willfully dangerous nonsense that goes on in this industry on the internet. It is nothing short of a miracle that we don't hear of more accidents than we already do. Though I have to say I'm not even sure you can call this sort of thing an accident if harm were to materialize as a result. I think it might be more descriptive to call it the fruits of chaotic stupidity.

  Yep...its high time for that fitting phrase. Even if its just between the professionals that never partake in such idiocy. I often need to remind myself that there are people out there doing a really conscientious job offering an experience that is well planned, well thought out, and safely executed.    

  My hat is always off to the true professionals.
