Wedding Car Hire in Vienna: Choosing, Planning and Tips

Written by zeeke · Updated

Your wedding car takes you to the registry office, church or venue and appears in many of your photos. In Vienna you can choose between an elegant sedan with chauffeur, a striking SUV or a sports car for a grand entrance. This guide shows which car suits your wedding and how to plan the day's schedule with ease.

With chauffeur or self-drive?

For most couples, a wedding car with chauffeur is the best choice. You don't have to worry about anything, sit comfortably in the back and arrive on time and relaxed. Our chauffeurs speak German and English, which helps with international guests. More about our chauffeur service.

If you would rather drive yourself, for example for the photo shoot or the drive to the reception, you can rent a sports car or SUV as a self-drive rental. Please remember that the driver should not drink alcohol that day.

Which cars make a good wedding car?

Classic and elegant: luxury sedans
The Mercedes S-Class S400d Long, the BMW 740d Long and the Audi A8 Long offer plenty of rear space, even for a wedding dress with a train. The long-wheelbase versions are ideal with a chauffeur.
Striking: Mercedes G-Class
The G-Class makes a statement and suits modern weddings and city photo shoots especially well.
Spectacular: sports cars
A Lamborghini Urus or the open-top Ferrari 812 GTS make for a grand entrance and unique photos. More about our supercars in our guide Lamborghini rental in Vienna.
