Getaway car
The couple's transport — a limo, vintage car, or getaway vehicle. Records the vehicle, pickup point and time, the send-off moment, and where the car goes after.
Also called: limo, getaway car, vintage car, town car, send off.
When couples book this
Usually booked about 7 months out. It moves with your date.
Your wishlist, before you talk to anyone
Questions you can answer early — they become the yardstick you compare candidates against.
What kind of ride are you picturing?
Wishlist mirror of the vehicle_style candidate fact — compare what each company offers against it.
How many of you are riding?
Just the couple, or the wedding party too — sets the size of vehicle to shop for.
How do you want your exit to feel?
What to ask each candidate
Facts that differ from one vendor to the next — worth writing down while you shop.
What kind of car?
What settles once booked
The working details you and your vendor pin down together.
What shape does the send-off take?
The program item is what the DJ, coordinator, and photographer line up around — it retracts cleanly if the plan changes to a quiet exit.
Pickup point and time
Is the send-off photographed?
Where does the car go?
Car decorations
Any earlier runs in the same booking?
What time do they arrive?
The time you agreed together, not an estimate worked back from the ceremony.
What times are set on the day?
One row per moment — a serving round, a pickup leg, a person's slot, a set. Each row becomes its own block on your run of show, labeled with whatever you type, so name it for whoever will be reading it.
What time do they finish?
Who do you call on the day?
The name and cell number of whoever is on site — not the office line.
Where do they come in, and where do they park?
The load-in door or dock, where the vehicles go, and who opens up.
Do they need a meal?
Counts toward your caterer's vendor-meal number.
What balance is due on the day?
Your own figure, from your contract — what is still owed when they arrive.
What gratuity are you planning?
Your own figure. It rides beside the balance on the day-of money sheet.
How it lands on your day
Car arrives and stages
Send-off & pickup
Set time
One block per row of the cell's dayof_service_times answer; the row's own label names it, and its `until` makes it a window.
How it’s usually priced
Usually priced as one flat amount.
Lines that sometimes ride along: Additional transfer (ceremony or first look), Overtime / waiting time (per hour).
What your vendor reads from your plan
Book on or off Beetrothed — either way the plan assembles a brief your vendor can work from: the event, the car, the send-off, schedule, contacts.
