Weddings, Events & Photoshoots
Classic Car vs Limo or Party Bus
Choose a chauffeured classic car when the car itself is part of the moment: a wedding exit, an engagement photoshoot or a grand arrival for a small group. Choose a limo or party bus when you need to move a larger group together. ATX Classic Cars rentals start at $895 for 2 hours, with the chauffeur, fuel and tolls included.

When a classic car is the better choice
A classic car works best when the vehicle is part of the story. Couples use ours for wedding getaways, engagement photoshoots and special evenings, because the car becomes the backdrop as well as the ride. A professional chauffeur drives, so you can focus on the day. Our cars are based in Dripping Springs and travel across Austin and the Texas Hill Country.
When a limo or party bus makes more sense
A limo or party bus is built for moving a bigger group at once, such as a full wedding party or a group travelling between venues. If your priority is seating a large group together, a larger vehicle is the right tool. A classic car seats a small group, so it works best for a couple or a few guests.
Can you use both?
Yes. Many weddings pair the two: a classic car for the couple’s arrival or exit, and a larger vehicle for guests. If you book one of our cars alongside a bus, tell us the schedule and we plan the timing around yours.
