About

Providing beautiful carriages and well trained horses for weddings and other special occasions, The Cavalry of Heroes is run by Marc and Catherine, whose friendly experienced professionalism will help you feel relaxed and content on your big day knowing that you will have a wonderful horse and carriage ride to look forward to.

Experience

Marc's previous carriage driving experience includes driving carriages for HRH The Queen at Buckingham Palace as well as driving the Historical Royal Palace Shires in London's Royal Parks. You will therefore be in capable and safe hands for beautiful and memorable transport on your wedding day.

Services offered

The Carriages can seat up to five people and can be decorated to match your theme; champagne and other extras can be provided. They will also work with your photographer to help capture the best moments of your time together on your big day. As your wedding is entirely unique, they will work with you to discuss how best to incorporate a beautiful horse and carriage ride into your big day.

How they work

They can offer carriage rides that can take you from your starting address to the ceremony and then to the reception. Also a stunning arrival at the reception if the distance you need to travel is too far or will take too long. Or if you don't need to travel at all and your ceremony and reception are at the same venue, they can offer a romantic interlude carriage ride.

If you would prefer to arrive on horseback, they have stunning film horses that you can make your big entrance on. And if you have a medieval theme, they can even provide an escort of knights on decorated horses to add that royal experience to your wedding day.
