Taistorm Posted January 18, 2020 Posted January 18, 2020 Hey guys, Might need to move this to a different category if it's wrong but anyway I'm chasing some wedding cars for 2 separate wedding later this year. Wedding 1: The first wedding is for my good mate. The date is for the Saturday the 26th of September. Looking for at least 2 cars, possibly 4 but it comes down to availability and costs to work with their budget. He is ideally after Australian Muscle, early Holdens in particular (e.g. kingswoods, premiers etc) but beggars can't be choosers so also the likes of old falcons, valiants or even American muscle. The venue is located in Clevedon, south east Auckland. would be approx 3 hours work, picking the groomsmen and bridesmaids up from different locations (close to venue) and driving to the venue. Possibly even waiting around for the ceremony to take pictures afterwards. Wedding 2: This is for my own wedding. The date is the 12th of December. Located in Mangawhai, about 3 hours as well. I'm only after 1 car, a tidy rotary, needs to be 4 doors to fit 4 girls and tidy but also ruckus, This will be paired with my 1300 so have to make sure it's completed this year haha. You will be picking up the bridesmaids from close by and taking them to the venue and maybe hang around for some photos after the ceremony if you like. Obviously you will be paid for your time and services. We will cover fuel and reasonable cash, beers, spirits as required. I know this is well in advance but a lot of planning is being done for both weddings haha. Please let me know if you or someone you know might be keen. Thanks in advance! Tai 3 Quote

Tai For your wedding if you don't get any bites off here - message 'Hire a Rotary' on Facebook - He's a Auckland based fulla and often sorts rotary's for events. 1 Quote

Posing for silly photos at the rifle range: I arranged this because I saw the writing on the wall - my brother and his wife now only own a white hybrid SUV. =( 2 2 Quote

Taistorm Posted June 3, 2020 Author Posted June 3, 2020 Ok guys, so now the covid crap is starting to pass and things are freeing up, my mates wedding is back on track for this September. Just seeing what else is out there and who would be keen for this. Once again ideally after old Aussie muscle, preferably an old Kingswood or such. More of an update in terms of requirement. Would be pick up from about 11-12am at mount roskill then drop off at the venue in Clevedon. Maybe hang around for about an hour for a few pics or what have you. Cheers Quote
A Wedding Story Posted March 28 Posted March 28 Hey mate, both weddings sound like they’re going to be epic—love the mix of Aussie muscle and rotaries, especially with the personal touches you’re planning. You might have some luck reaching out to local car clubs or classic car Facebook groups in the Auckland and Northland areas. From what I’ve seen at weddings I’ve photographed, a lot of owners are open to lending their cars for a few hours, especially with good notice and a fair offer. OldSchool.co.nz and even local Instagram pages can be good places to ask too. Make sure to allow a little buffer time on the day—classic cars can be a bit unpredictable, and it’s always nice to have time for a few relaxed photos with the cars after the ceremony. I’ve seen some really awesome wedding party shots done that way. I’m a wedding photographer based in Wellington but often travel for weddings around the North Island—you can see some of our car + couple shots at aweddingstory.nz if you’re curious about ideas for timing or photo setups. Hope you lock in the perfect rides—and best wishes for both wedding days! They sound like a blast. Quote

Taistorm Posted March 30 Author Posted March 30 Haha what a thread dredge. No divorces yet unfortunately haha. My mate ended up just getting a couple vip mini bus things which ended up being awesome (no way near as dope as it could have been though...) My wedding still hasn't happened yet. Covid restrictions stopped it from happening so had kids then moved to aus. Probably go do a helicopter elopement later this year in Queenstown I think. Quote
