    Hi fellow capital area brides! I am looking to rent a vintage/classic car for a few hours on my wedding day, May 14 2011. I have looked at a limo company in the area, who have 3 vintage cars to choose from, but who quoted me $500+ for 3 hours!! YIKES. Does anyone know of any other options? Thanks!!!! :)

    So I come from a vintage car family so i might be able to give you some ideas.  do you know what kind of car you want?  Let's take an antique Jaguar as an example.  There are lots of car clubs for enthusiasts.  (note.... I have been in these car clubs since I was 6 years old).  You could look around and find the local Jag club... or a generic british car club.... yes they are out there!  Then put a notice out or show up at their car club meeting saying you are trying to meet a budget... you think their cars are just amazing and would anyone be willing to drive you away?  Maybe you can offer to pay them a lower amount out of nice gesture, feed them at your wedding or offer to make a donation to their car club.  Let me know if you need help finding a club.  We used to show our cars at homecoming games, weddings, commercials etc.  BTW i bet the cars you will get with these restorers will be much better than ones you rent.  They love their cars... Also if you give them copies of the pics your photographer takes they would LOVE that!

    @alphajuliet: Hi, I am wondering if you can help me. I am getting married in Rhinebeck, NY and we would like a vintage car to drive us from the venue, to the church and back again, so for about 2 hours. If you can put me in touch with someone in that vincinity I would be so grateful. Thank you!!
