Top Wedding Car Trends for 2025
The style and fashions of weddings regularly change. The best way to set the tone for the wedding is with the wedding car in which the bride makes her grand entrance. In the past, the classic choice was a black limousine, but since then, white and ivory wedding cars have become increasingly popular. 2025 is heralding some fresh, innovative and very cool wedding trends and what better way to make a statement about your wedding than with the wedding car you choose. Let’s have a look at the top wedding car trends for 2025.
What are the popular car hire trends for 2025 so far?

Vehicle’s colour
White and Ivory wedding cars are the most popular choice for couple getting married. However, staff members at Premier Carriage have noticed a rise in the number of requests for black wedding cars and an increasing popularity in two-tone black and white wedding cars - to complement the current trend for black bridesmaid dresses.
Social media ready
Couples are seeking Instagram-able vehicles that will look good on their social media pages. This complements the role of the Wedding Content Creators who specialise in producing and sharing content related to weddings – in particular photos, videos and social media posts.
The most popular wedding car in 2025
This year, the stunning 1930s style Beauford Convertible has top the chart by proving to be the most popular wedding car with couples wanting to enjoy the nostalgic magic that this beautiful vintage style car evokes.
Budget Friendly Transportation
Many couples are seeking budget-friendly transport for their wedding day. The average cost of wedding car hire for 2025 is £432. To get maximum value, some couples are requesting that the wedding car makes additional journeys - for example to transport the Bridesmaids and Grooms men.
Ribbons colour
White and ivory wedding ribbons are still the most popular colours for wedding cars, but there is a distinct swing in 2025 to jewel – bright colours such as emerald green, burgundy, fuchsia and royal blue.
What are the popular 2025 styles for weddings?
Luxe minimalism
Luxe minimalism for weddings strikes the perfect balance between simplicity and refined elegance. The philosophy behind this trend is that it embraces clean lines and understated luxury – with the emphasis being on quality rather than quantity. Wedding celebrations are planned with fewer guests, with the focus being on ensuring that each person has a memorable time.
Wedding outfits are simply styled but beautifully tailored in gorgeous fabrics. Venues are chic and modern with smart minimalist décor and wedding decorations are kept small and elegant. Wedding couples are keen to embrace eco-friendly options including locally grown and organic foods for their celebration meal. They are also opting for sleek electric or hybrid cars such as the elegant all-electric Tesla 'X' with its gull wing doors or the ultra cool Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid.
Vintage nostalgia
Vintage-style weddings are making a huge comeback in 2025 as they successfully combine nostalgic charm with timeless elegance. The term ‘vintage’ is often closely linked with ‘romance’ and couples are having fun adding many vintage-inspired details to their day including lace and pearls for the bride and traditional top hat and tails for the Groom and his Best Man. Venues are also being carefully chosen that reflect the grandeur of a bygone era.
Couples are choosing beautiful vintage wedding cars for their special day including Rolls-Royce, Bentleys and Daimler. For a fun element, vintage convertibles such as the Beauford 4-door convertible are the perfect way to make a grand entrance. All of these vintage vehicles are iconic and with a uniformed chauffeur will add old world glamour to your wedding day. The wedding cars are immaculately maintained both inside and out and have a timeless appeal. Premier Carriage has a selection of more than 900 vehicles – many of them vintage. A browse of our website in the comfort of your home will reveal our range of vintage cars, with useful information about each model and importantly, where in the UK they are located.
Techie weddings
To add fun to the wedding day and to save them time, many couples are opting for techie weddings in 2025. They use online stores for shopping at times when it suits them. They are planning to live stream their wedding for family and friends who cannot be there in person and to break with tradition, they are booking photographers who use drones for more unusual wedding day photographs.
Booking a wedding car with Premier Carriage fits into this style particularly well as the company’s well-designed and easy to navigate website can be used at a time that is convenient to the couple. As well as browsing through the selection of vehicles, couples can book their wedding car online. If they prefer, they can email details of their wedding day such as date, time and location and Premier Carriage will provide them with all the options available.
Eco-friendly and sustainable
An increasing number of wedding couples are planning an eco-friendly wedding and making conscious choices that will reduce the environmental impact of their big day. They are spending time looking for green options that do not compromise on style. Couples are choosing wedding outfits made from sustainable fabrics such as organic cotton. They are seeking locally sourced foods for the catering that supports local business. They are also opting for zero-waste decorations that are displayed in reusable containers and designed using locally sourced flowers.
Eco-conscious couples are choosing to send digital wedding invitations in place of paper ones or choosing ones made from recycled paper. Weddings are smaller and more intimate to prioritise sustainability. The wedding cars being chosen are electric or hybrids too. One of the fun ideas in the Premier Carriage range is the modern all-electric taxi cab.
Although eco-friendly weddings are proving popular in 2025, they will remain so in future years as more and more couples choose sustainable wedding celebrations that have a positive impact on our planet.
In 2025, wedding car trends are leaning towards luxury, sustainability and personalisation. Couples are still choosing vintage and classic cars for their timeless elegance, whilst eco-friendly electric and hybrid vehicles are gaining in popularity. Luxury cars including Rolls-Royce and Bentleys have a timeless appeal, whilst unique options such as London taxis and retro London buses are chosen by couples wanting to make a statement. When choosing your wedding car company, consider the quality and variety of their fleet and read their customer reviews. Check the level of personalisation that the company offers too. These important factors will all ensure that you will arrive in top style on your wedding day.
