Arriving by horse and carriage suits the sandstone streets of Battery Point and Salamanca Place, and a Georgian estate or country house out in the valleys. Carriages here come as an open landau for fine days or an enclosed glass coach for when the weather turns, with crew in period costume.
Points to settle before you confirm:
Most guests will still need their own plan, and a coach charter handles that well. A carriage can also make an entrance at a school formal or a themed corporate event.
A carriage seats a handful of people, usually the couple plus a few others. Check the limit for the vehicle you choose and book separate transport for the wider bridal party.
Many operators travel to estates in the Huon, Derwent and Coal River valleys, with a travel charge on top. Ask how the horses are transported and how long they need to settle before the ride.
An enclosed glass coach is the usual answer to rain or cold wind. Agree in advance whether the swap is automatic and what happens if conditions are unsafe for the horses.
