Why Use A Limo, Just Hail A Cab.

Erica Turnipseed and Kevin Webb had an idea to use a Checkered Cab instead of a limo. She wanted to save money and still be creative. She had attended a wedding that had done the same thing. She began her search (the friend couldn’t remember the company). Finally she found Film Cars.com. It was just what she was looking for at the right price. This gave the couple a unique New York experience.
Film Cars has many other vintage cars like a 1910 FORD Open Touring (Black) to a 1961 JAGUAR XK-150 Drop-head Coupe (Black) and there is so much more to choose from. They have a long list of clients that include TV, Video, Movie and Magazines, but many couples are making this a fun idea for the wedding day.
With a driver dressed as a NY Cabbie and the door decorated with ribbons and bows, the back window with “Just Married” written boldly, Erica and Kevin hitched a ride into a new life. Really a cute move.

No Cold Feet

There were no cold feet here, when Lorraine Elder and George Ratchford tied the knot. On January 28, 2005, it was 6 degrees and the wind chill factor was below...Well it doesn't matter, it was 6 degrees and that's cold! This did not deter these love birds from making it legal. They were determined to have a fabulous life, so they ditched the big wedding idea, bought a condo and did the I do's in Brooklyn's City Hall. This may not seem like the dream wedding of most, but the photographer, Anthony Ponds noted sometimes "Bigger the wedding, sooner the divorce." So for this couple they began on a stable platform.

George's double breasted suit was made for him from a cream color pinstripe tropical weight wool. Lorraine had Cassandra Bromfield design a two piece halter short dress with cowrie shells dangling at the neckline and the hip from a Mocado silk. I was so amazed she still wore the feather sandals which wrapped around her ankle and had a cowrie shell at the ends of each ribbon. They were chic, fabulous and in love. This made the day feel like it was Summertime in the City.
