1) Have you been
referred to the limo company? On our bachelor party
limo directory above, choose the state of choice and
find a reputable limousine company. You can also ask
around to friends as "word of mouth" is also important
in finding a reputable bachelor limo company. I have
heard of many things going wrong such as the limo
company not showing up or having bad customer service,
so make sure to ask around and use our network above.
2) How much is it
going to cost? Make sure to ask the limo company on
how much the day/evening festivities will be. There is
usually a package rate for a certain amount of hours
plus gratuity (tip). Make sure the bachelor party
participants understand how much the limousine is up
front so you can collect the money. Many times, you have
to place a credit card down as well as a security
deposit so make sure to have a responsible point person
who will also ask up front for everyone's money who is
chipping in.
3) What type of
bachelor party limo do you want? Make sure to find
out what types of limos or bachelor party busses the
company owns. You can get anything from a Cadillac or
Hummer limousine to a large classic stretch limo. My
favorite are the Bentley limousines that rock!
4) What does the limo
come with? Find out what the limousine comes
equipped with. Some of the common things are dvd,
stereo, great sound system, lights, alcohol and other
beverages, and video game consol. Find out what is
included in the price?
5) Order the limousine
early and re-confirm a few days before the party.
Make sure to ask the limousine company to confirm a few
days prior to the party or call them direct. There are
times when the limousines that was wanted mysteriously
does not show up as it is at another party (that the
company got more money for).
6) Ask about group
rates. In today's age of gas being more than food
and a soft economy, ask the limousine company if they
give bachelor party discounts. You may get lucky!
7) VIP passes.
Find out if the limousine company has access/VIP to bars
and clubs which will make it easier for you to get you
and the bachelor party into the hot spots.
8) Plan your evening.
Don't have the limousine driver have no destination as
it is a waste of your money. Map out your bachelor party
course in advance so you can have a rough estimate on
where you are going.
9) Tip the driver.
Make sure to have enough to tip the driver as he is
taking you and your crazy friends around for the evening
and has to deal with a lot of crap. Ask the company in
advance if they place gratuity into the price or if you
pay separate. Just make sure to be cool with the tip!
10) Bring Drinks and
Munchies. The best bachelor party limo rides have
your favorite munchies and drinks. If you don't bring
the food and drink with you, stop off at a near-by store
and load up! The limousine company may already have
loaded up the limousine which you can ask about when
calling and setting up the bachelor party festivities.
