A classic drive-away in a beautifully decorated car is the perfect end to a fairytale wedding. There are endless possibilities when it comes to decorating your drive-away car, and in this video, Event Planner and Designer Jove Meyer shares some of his favorites. He also offers some logistical tips so your drive-away goes off without a hitch.
First of all, you want to make sure that you're actually driving away and not to an after party and not sort of back to the venue for a continued party. So step one is making sure that it is your final goodbye, not a cheap goodbye. Because guests don't want to say goodbye and then suddenly you reappear again. So in decorating that car, I think you can think of streamers, cans, shaving cream on the windows, or tools of stickers. You want to think about the visuals and the sounds. You want to make sure that it's fun and that it's exciting. Balloons are a great option. Anything that you do, you definitely want to pass along, if it is a rental car, to that company to make sure that they allow it. If it is your friend’s or family car, you want to make sure that anything you do is temporary and not permanent. And if you're really doing it just for the photo or video, always know that when you turn the corner, you can take the things off if they're not legal to drive with or safe to drive with.
