The last ride of the night
You don't need to keep your wedding car waiting all night.
A wedding getaway car, also called the exit car or send-off car, collects the newlyweds at the end of the reception and drives them to their hotel, their home or the airport. It's one of the most photographed moments of the wedding, and one of the most overpriced. Wedding car packages are priced in blocks of hours, so keeping the same car for the getaway means paying for it to sit in a car park while you eat, dance and cut the cake.
Booking 1
Your wedding cars
The ceremony, the photo locations and your arrival at the reception. Then they finish.
Booking 2
Your getaway car
Arrives at the reception shortly before your send-off and takes you to your hotel, your home or the airport. You pay for one short trip, not hours of waiting.
Two ways to book
The difference is the car you choose, not the service you get.
Recommended for most couples
An executive sedan at our standard transfer rate
Book it exactly the way our corporate clients do: a standard point-to-point transfer in a clean, late-model executive sedan. You pay our normal transfer rate and see the price before you book. Nothing is marked up because the word "wedding" is on the booking.
Only if the car really matters
A flagship car booked as a wedding getaway
If the getaway car is part of your wedding look and you want a Mercedes S-Class or BMW 7 Series, it's booked as a wedding getaway, charged at twice the standard rate. We only suggest it if that specific car matters to you and your photographer.

| Keep your wedding car all night | Package hours, including the time it waits | You pay while the car waits | Couples who want the same car all day and have the budget |

Why we recommend a sedan
A clean car on time, without wedding package prices.
- ✓It's there on time. Your driver is confirmed in advance, never a spinning ETA.
- ✓You know the price up front. It's shown in the instant quote, so there are no surprises at the end of the night.
- ✓You only pay for the trip. The car arrives for your send-off, not at the start of the reception.
- ✓It looks great in photos. A late-model, spotless sedan and a professional chauffeur.
- ✓There's room for the dress. Long train or full skirt? Choose an SUV for extra space.
Whoever you book, check the operator is properly authorised. In NSW, anyone taking bookings for hire vehicles must be authorised by the Point to Point Transport Commissioner.
How to book
Book the getaway car and the honeymoon in one go.
- Step 1
Get a price
Use the instant quote with your reception venue as the pickup and your hotel, home or airport as the destination.
- Step 2
Give the exact pickup point
The venue name and address, and where the car should wait for your exit photos, such as the main entrance.
- Step 3
Set the time for your send-off
Allow a little time so the car is already in position when you walk out.
- Step 4
Add notes for the chauffeur
Both your names and the mobile number of your venue coordinator.
- Step 5
Choose your vehicle
An executive sedan for the best value, an SUV for a full gown or luggage, or a flagship car as a wedding getaway.
- Step 6
Add your honeymoon transfers
Both ways, with your return flight number, so the whole trip is locked in before the big day.
Speeches running long or the dance floor still full? Contact the dispatch desk, 24/7, and we'll move the pickup.
Honeymoon airport transfers
From the reception to the runway, and home again.
The morning after
Most couples fly out the next day. Book the honeymoon transfer with the getaway car, picking up from your wedding night hotel.
Straight from the reception
Heading to a late flight? Tell us when you book, so we send a vehicle with room for your bags as well as the dress.
Choose for the luggage
Two people with large suitcases are far more comfortable in an SUV than a sedan.
A flight-tracked pickup home
Add your return flight number. The pickup follows your actual landing time, and your chauffeur meets you inside the terminal.
Free waiting time
30 minutes for domestic flights and 60 minutes for international flights, starting when the chauffeur arrives.
Driver delay
Expecting a long customs queue after an overseas honeymoon? Add a driver delay so the chauffeur arrives closer to when you're ready.

Wedding getaway car questions.
What is a wedding getaway car?
The car that takes the newlyweds away from the reception at the end of the night, usually to their wedding night hotel, their home or the airport. It's also called a wedding exit car or send-off car.
How much does a wedding getaway car cost?
An executive sedan booked as a standard point-to-point transfer costs our normal transfer rate for that trip. A Mercedes S-Class or BMW 7 Series booked as a wedding getaway is charged at twice the standard rate. Use the instant quote to see your price before you book.
Do I need to keep my wedding car for the whole night?
No. Finish your wedding car booking after the ceremony and photos, then book a separate getaway car to arrive just before your send-off. You pay for one short trip instead of hours of waiting time.
Can I book a Mercedes S-Class or BMW 7 Series as my getaway car?
Yes. Flagship cars are booked as a wedding getaway, charged at twice the standard rate. If you just want a reliable, clean car, an executive sedan at the standard rate is the better value.
Can our getaway car take us straight to the airport?
Yes. Your chauffeur can take you from the reception to your hotel or straight to the airport. Let us know when you book so we send a vehicle with room for your luggage.
Can you pick us up when we come home from our honeymoon?
Yes. Add your return flight number when you book. Your flight is tracked, your chauffeur meets you inside the terminal, and free waiting time is included: 30 minutes for domestic flights and 60 minutes for international flights, starting when the chauffeur arrives.
Do you provide wedding getaway cars outside Sydney?
Yes. AT247 provides wedding getaway cars and honeymoon airport transfers in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, the Gold Coast, Perth, Adelaide and Canberra, plus long-distance trips from regional venues.
