A marriage or wedding is probably the single occasion that involves countless symbolism and beliefs. Thus, preparation for a wedding could be lavishly strenuous and taxing. From the smallest detail of the bride's fingernails up to the decorations set on the wedding car is supposed to be given definite arrangement.
In the area of the wedding car, the task of decorating is traditionally left to the best man that sometimes could turn out funny or weird and can sometimes be unfavorable for the newly-wed couple. Nowadays, many couples who are quite meticulous and like to be in charge of everything that may occur in their wedding preparation also embark on decorating and sprucing up their wedding vehicle.
Aside from the taste that governs the wedding car's decoration, particular discretion should also be applied into action to prevent possible damage to the vehicle or exposing the passengers (the just-married couple) to accidents and dangers when driving home from the reception.
Appropriate supplies and materials needs to be used to protect or preserve the condition of the car. A complete wedding car decorating kit that includes everything you needs from streamers, to pompoms to markers, balloons and confetti may be procured through online stores but single purchase of each necessary material may made from local craft stores. Instead of using a liquid shoe polish or permanent ink marker which are difficult to remove from the car, use liquid chalk or window marker instead. These materials can easily be removed by using soap and water. Use the liquid chalk or window marker to write a message to indicate that you have just tied the knot such as the classic "Just married" or "We're just married". There are also magnetic signs or vinyl window clings that may be attached to the windows and can be peeled off without sticking. These alternatives come in assortment of shapes like hearts and wedding bells, plus they can also be personalized to include the couple's names or additional sayings.
Aside from the writings, another distinct decoration of the wedding vehicle is are the ribbon and/or flowers. The ribbon to be purchased and tied to the car must be at least 2 inches wide. Real flowers of silk ones may be attached to the wedding car with the ribbon. Balloons are also good decorations on the car. The vehicle's antenna, should it have one may be decorated with a streamer, bulb or a flower. Trying out a classical wedding car practice by tying some empty beer cans using strong and durable ropes or strings on the rear bumper of the car.
As a precautionary measure, it is recommended that the car window be not heavily decorated as this may obstruct or block the driver's view out of the window. Confetti and glitters in the interior part of the car may seem appealing and fun but when it is already cleaning time, those decors may take weeks to be completely ridden of.
A wedding vehicle is not really a necessity in a marriage but since this is a special event in the couple's life that they will reminisce forever, some really take pains in providing such decorated modes of transportation.
