Ask The Celebration Advisor: I just moved to Buffalo, New York from "the middle of nowhere" Nebraska. I'm still not used to the city because I've worked too much to tour it much. I need a really good place to rent a limo for my birthday party. Have any suggestions? ~ Kelly

The Celebration Advisor: Kelly, actually I can think of a few great limousine services in Buffalo! New York is an awesome place to look if you want classy, fun or fancy limo rides. Lucky for you and your birthday guests, Buffalo limousine services have the kind that you're looking for.

If you really want suggestions, I would try Status Limousine, Buffalo Transporation, or A Absolute Limousine Service. They're all awesome. Since you know that you want the limo for a birthday, you're already a step ahead because it will help you pick out the type of limousine that you want:  stretch hummer, classic black, fun white, stretch truck limo, et al.

There are a few other considerations such as how the service is charged, how long you will need the limo, how many will be riding along and things like this. However, the people at these Buffalo limousine services will be happy to help!

New York is a great place to visit but I wouldn't want to do it in my own car. I'd be staring out the window trying to see the Empire State Building or looking for the Statue of Liberty. I guess it's a tourist thing but New York City is just NOT the place to exercise your curiosity while driving. I'm planning a trip to NYC (New York City, NY) and started thinking about how I'm going to get around. Here's what I've come up with.

While I probably will not spend my entire time there in a limousine, I'm definitely going to hop into a limo for a night or two! Imagine my excitement at being able to stare and gaze and gawk from the privacy of my comfy stretch limo with blacked out windows. Want to know who's in my limo? Too bad! (This would be the perfect place for a "muahaha") Limos with extra privacy are great for touring cities, relaxing on a romantic date, or just traveling from place to place in comfort and without the less-than-lovely sensual experience of a taxi. (Gag)

The Less Mentioned But Best Reason To Rent A Limo In NYC

I'm currently digging the idea of renting a limo from a New York limousine service for another reason though. While privacy and easier touring are well and good, the experience is everything. If you've never been to New York City, you'll want to taste and see all that one of the world's most famous cities has to offer. You'll want to live it up like a princess/prince because this will complete the dream experience of a trip to New York.

Since I'm visiting New York for the culture, I want to immerse myself in it. To me, that takes at least one limo ride. After all, I don't want to blend into the attractions. I want to be one.

Ask The Celebration Advisor: I noticed the post about Bridgeport limo rentals but I still have some questions about what I have to do to rent one in Stamford. Can you help? ~ Belinda, Stamford CT

The Celebration Advisor: Belinda, I'll be glad to help! Renting a limo for the first time can be pretty overwhelming if you have no idea which questions to ask. Don't fret though because you'll be completely prepared when you start to contact Stamford limousine services! Here are some of the things to consider before you rent the limo. Once you have the answers, renting a limo will be a cake walk to you. Next, you'll be telling all of your friends how to do it. *wink*

How long will I need the limo? — Some limousine services charge by the hour. Others charge per mile. Some charge by the block of time (2 hours, 4 hours, etc). Many limo services charge for the driver as well. Keep in mind the amount of time that you will need the limo because this will help you determine which limousine service will be most cost effective for you.

Who will be riding with me? — Are you taking along one friend, going solo or bringing the whole gang? This will determine whether you need a stretch limo with extra seating or something more standard.

What's the occasion? — If you're going to a formal event, consider a classic black stretch limousine. If you're going to something more fun, try something funky like a white limo or a stretch hummer.

Once you have the answers to these questions, you're ready to go! Stamford is a great place to find very helpful limousine services so go out and find the one for you!

Ask The Celebration Advisor: I recently read your post about renting a limo in Bridgeport. I'm from Waterbury Connecticut and am trying to find a good place to rent a limo for me and my girlfriend's one year anniversary. Do you know of any places in Waterbury that I could try? Thanks! ~ Jeff

The Celebration Advisor: Jeff, awesome question! It's so cool that you are trying to make that evening special for you and your girlfriend. To answer your question, yes, there are many limousine services in Waterbury CT that I'm sure will be very helpful.

It sounds like you've never had to rent a limo before. No worries! Just a suggestion, don't forget to ask a few questions when you're renting your limo this time. Questions to keep in mind are:

• How many people will be riding in the limo?
• Do I want something classy (black stretch limo) or funky (stretch hummer)?
• Will I have to pay the limo driver and mileage?
• Is the cost hourly, by the mile, or per block of time?

Any limousine service in Waterbury will be able to help you find the perfect limo if you know the answers to these questions. They'll make the process smooth, fast and efficient. In other words, you'll be on the road to a happy evening before you know it!

It's one thing to see Bridgeport, Connecticut by car but it's a completely different experience to make your way through the streets inside a tricked out limousine. It seems to be a thing in Bridgeport because it's not unusual at all to see a stretch hummer limousine, a traditional black stretch limo, and the occasional white limo rolling through the city. The next time someone sees a limo drive by, why not be inside it?

Why It's Ok That They're Staring At You

Oh yeah. You'll get tons of looks when you drive through Bridgeport in a limo but these curious glances quickly turn into slightly envious stares until you pull out of sight. Even if you're not the kind to draw attention to yourself, you'll love the proud feeling of being the one on the inside of the limo for a change.

You know the feeling you get when you see someone drive by in a limousine? You want to be inside it with them. You imagine what they're feeling and what they're doing. You wonder if it's someone famous on the inside or someone driving to prom or celebrating an anniversary. You want to know. You can't help it. It's a natural reaction.

Stop wondering what someone else is doing, feeling and thinking inside the limo. Let that be you. There are many occasions that warrant something a little flashier than the average family car. To make the night special for you and your guest(s), contact a local Bridgeport limousine service. Renting a limousine is a smooth move toward impressing everyone that spots you. It also earns you the "man/woman of the hour" title. You deserve it! Go out and get in…Inside a limo that is!

Making sure wedding guests are taken care of is an important part of the wedding planning process. Providing transportation for your wedding guests will ensure that all participants will have a good and safe time.  This limousine question from a bride demonstrates how important both transportation price and safety are when planning a wedding

Ask The Celebration Advisor: I am actually asking about transportation from my wedding on August 29th 2009….maybe starting around 1000p – lasting through 1200a , or so.
I only want the reception guests to make it home, or wherever they plan to stay that night.

What is your charge for this type of service.  The main places to carry them will be Tarboro and Greenville.

Thanks for your help Sheila -  Event takes place in Farmville.

For weddings, limousines can offer guests a safe and luxurious ride.  Since your event takes place in Farmville, NC but the guests will need to go to Tarboro, NC or Greenville, NC, you have three limo options:

1. A Farmville Limousine service willing to travel to Tarboro or Greenville.
2. A Tarboro Limousine service willing to travel to Farmville or Greenville.
3. A Greenville limousine service willing to travel Tarboro or Farmington.

In areas where cities are close to each other, a limo company from one town will serve the surrounding cities.  So, you should be able to find a wedding limo service that is willing to travel to all three places.

Before you contact one of these limousine companies, you need to know what kind of limousine styles are available.  The best style for extra large groups going to the same place is a limo bus.  Not all limousine companies will have one in their fleet.  However, if this option is available the pricing is usually very cost-effective.  For small groups, the Hummer limo is a novel idea.  For most weddings, the stretch limo is the standard style of choice and can accommodate large groups.

As for pricing, limo rental companies usually have special packages for proms and weddings.  Luckily, the party limousine packages can be tailored to your special needs.  I would first guesstimate how many guests will use the limos.  Then divide the number into two groups – those going to Tarboro and those going to Greenville.  That way when you contact the limousine rental company you will have all the necessary information to select the right wedding limo package.
