Horse drawn carriage?

coreyphil · January 28, 2008

Does anyone know of a vendor for horse drawn carriages? Specifically, one that will come to San Jose?

I've gotten one quote for $700. Just thought I would check around ...

We're thinking of leaving the reception in one ...

I'm not sure who our WC who she uses, but it sounds like you got a better quote than us. My fiance and I were quoted $1100 + 250 (optional for flower decorations). This includes pick-up from the hotel in San Jose, delivery to the church, pick-up from the church, a ride around downtown & drop off at the beach. We have to find our own transportation back to the hotel.

I would love to find out more information about this for myself. What place is your WC using for the horse drawn carriage. I wonder if dreams will allow you to bring it onto their beach? Anyone know?

Hi there!

I was just quoted $1100 for the same service for a wedding in the Cabo San Lucas church (downtown) so it sounds about right although $700 is a great price! maybe the location plays into the quote?

For the FutureMrs. - I'm sorry to say that you probably won't be able to have access to the Dreams beach with the horse/carriage. I have not seen a paved (direct access) from the motor lobby to the beach, although they do have an alternate entrance through the side but it isn't paved and the carriage might sink... I hope this helps!

Sorry girls - I'm not sure who the vendor is that the WC uses ... and I've been told they don't share their vendor list (I've asked before on a different item and that was her answer --- which I guess is understandable!). Part of the price difference may be the fact that we just want to leave from the reception, ride around about 30 minutes, and then go back to the hotel (which is all pretty close to the plaza in San Jose). I'll let you know if I find any other quotes!
