FAQ about hiring a Horse Drawn Carriage
On average, horse and carriage rentals cost $500 - $800 for 1 hour. However, this range can vary depending on your location, travel time, carriage requests, and other requirements that are specific to your event.
Before booking, discuss the breakdown of costs with the professional. If they charge an hourly fee, ask if wait times are included. For example, you may need a carriage ride to your wedding venue and then a second carriage ride to the reception after the ceremony ends. When contacting a horse and carriage for rent, inquire about what happens if there is inclement weather, in case there are associated fees or refund terms.
Weddings are one of the most popular events for horse carriage rides. A wedding carriage rental can serve as transportation for just the bride and groom, or you can make them available for all the wedding guests.
Carriage rides are also available for princess parties, proms, Valentine's Day dates, proposals, anniversaries, and any other special occasion.
The types of carriages available will depend on your location or the location of your event. Most horse and carriage services will have multiple options available. Choices can include color and horse breed, as well as carriage selections such as a Cinderella carriage, a Vis-a-vis carriage, or a stagecoach.
Horse drawn carriages typically travel between 2-4 miles per hour.
In many cities, horse drawn carriages have the same rights and responsibilities as any other vehicle. To be certain, check out your city’s regulations and discuss these details with the professional you’re looking to book. Be sure to ask if the carriage and driver have the correct license and/or permit to drive specifically in your location.
A carriage ride company's livelihood depends upon caring properly for their animals so they work hard to ensure that the horses are clean, strong, and healthy. To keep them healthy, companies must feed them well and house them in clean barns and pastures. In order to keep the carriage horses safe and calm, they are also well-trained and acclimated to traffic and other conditions they often encounter at special events.
