Smooth and festive Baraat experience!

We hired Vintage Carriage for the Baraat of our Indian wedding this past May, and would recommend them highly! Everything went smoothly, from getting on to dismounting. The horse’s decorations were wonderful. Leilani was timely in communications and in arrival at the venue, and the ride was well-paced. The attention to safety - not only of the riders but of everyone in the crowd, was much appreciated. She definitely made the Baraat a success!

Leilani and her crew was excellent! Even prior to our wedding, she agreed to meet with us and talk over logistics. She has a wonderful and welcoming personality, and she is a pleasure to work with. On the day of our wedding, she had the carriage delivered early and setup without a hitch. Everyone LOVED it! It worked so well with our vision and venue. We had so many comments on how unique and magical it was to have a carriage (that lights up at night!). It was a huge hit! No regrets. Thank you!

Vintage Carriage Company added a wonderful, special touch to a wedding that I planned at the Dunsmuir-Hellman Historic Estate. They gave guests rides from the entrance to the ceremony, and our grooms had a spectacular finish to their ceremony, riding off in their blue vis-a-vis! Ashley and Leilani were fantastic to work with!
