The wedding carriage

The wedding moment everyone pulls out their phone for.

Few things stop a crowd like hoofbeats coming up the drive. A horse-drawn carriage gives your wedding a moment that's romantic, a little Western, and completely yours, and it photographs beautifully at golden hour.

We work around your timeline and your venue, so the carriage fits into the day instead of taking it over.

✦ ✦ ✦
Where the carriage fits

Entrance, exit, or both.

01

Grand entrance

Arrive at the ceremony by carriage with your guests already watching the drive.

02

The send-off

Leave the reception in a carriage instead of a car, with a cheering line of guests on both sides.

03

Portraits

Give your photographer a horse, a carriage, and an Arizona sunset. The fringed canopy and greenery frame the two of you.

Good to know

A wedding carriage for Arizona venues

Ranch and barn venues, resorts, churches, parks, and backyard weddings: we'll bring the carriage to you anywhere in Maricopa and Pinal County. Before you book, check that your venue allows a horse on the property. Some have rules about where a horse can stand or which paths it can use, and we're glad to talk with your venue coordinator directly.

The best time of day for carriage photos

In the Valley, the hour before sunset is hard to beat. The light is soft and warm, the heat has eased off, and the white carriage glows. If your send-off is after dark, the carriage lanterns make for a classic night photo.

What we'll need from you

Your date, the venue address, the times you want the carriage, and a contact person for the day. We'll also want to know where a truck and trailer can park and unload.

Before you book

Wedding carriage questions.

Can the carriage be part of the ceremony?

Yes. Common options are a carriage arrival for the bride, a send-off after the reception, or both. We'll time it to your schedule.

Will our venue allow a horse and carriage?

Many outdoor venues can make it work, but always check first. We need a safe spot to unload and a path for the carriage. We're happy to talk with your venue coordinator.

Can the carriage match our wedding colors?

Yes. We can dress the canopy with greenery and florals. Bring your own flowers, or ask us what we can provide.

How long do you stay at a wedding?

Wedding bookings usually run one to two hours on site, which covers an arrival or send-off plus photos. Longer bookings are available.

What if it's too hot or the weather turns?

The horse's safety comes first. We'll watch the forecast with you and adjust the timing if we need to.

How much does a wedding carriage cost?

It depends on the date, the hours, and how far we travel. Send the details and we'll quote you a straight price.
