Decorating the wedding car is a fun tradition however make sure you keep some control as if it is applied incorrectly it could damage the car or possibly offend wedding guests.

Over the past 20 years we have heard many stories, some rather funny and original and some about wedding car decoration which has been rather costly, and embarrassing.
