One of the most common mistakes made by people who book limousine is the quest for the cheapest price. All too often they book a limousine outfit who pride themselves on the "cheap reputation". Does the word "cheap" fit anywhere next to "first class" or "extravagant" or "luxury"? Then why in the world should it be paired with "Limousines"? When you book a limousine that is "cheap", chances are you're getting what you paid for. Think about it, when booking a limousine company you should be most concerned with their reliable service and quality of cars. If a company prides itself on its "cheap prices", chances are they are cutting back on quality of service, proper livery insurance, maintenance of cars and their integrity.
Many companies offer different incentives in their packages. The industry norm is a standard three-hour package for weddings. Most companies offer a 15-minute grave period. Majority of services, such as Westchester NY Limos, will include in their packaged price additional amenities such as a complimentary bottle of champagne, red carpet service, a tuxedoed chauffer, balloons, a just-married insignia, complimentary beverages, to name a few. If you have specific requests, the friendly staff will gladly satisfy them. Some services may even offer a lace runner. Many limousine companies will try to accommodate you as much as possible. Just remember anything that is promised to you and make sure they are included in your contract.
Today, there are many different options of limousines to hire. A lot of companies advertise cars that they do not even own. When you book a limousine service company it is always best to book with a company that has its own stable of vehicles. Make sure you see the actual cars or pictures of the cars you are booking. It would be better if the company features its limos in its website, like what WestchesterNYlimo.com has done with its
Fleet page.
The wisest thing when you book a limousine for your wedding is to always get a contract! This is your binding agreement that states all the information that you wanted from your limousine service provider, and the amount of money the service will cost you, what your cancellation options are and what will happen should they fail to meet your expectations. You'll be surprised how many people will pick up the phone, book a limo and wait for it to show up with their fingers crossed. Ask about how the gratuity works: Is it included in the price or is it extra? Also, make sure you get a copy of your contract.

Local History - Interesting Facts, Famous Names & Places
The Town of Eastchester began settlement in 1664 when ten families migrated from Fairfield, Connecticut. Thomas Pell, who at that time also owned the territories known now as New Rochelle and Pelham granted a deed to the group to "settle down at Hutchinsons," where the home of Anne Hutchinson had stood some twenty years before. The ten original families were shortly joined by another twenty-six.
Laws for the region were established the following year, in 1665, under an agreement called the "Eastchester Covenant." The covenant was a rare document for this period. It contained twenty-six provisions such as: education of children, disposition and upkeep of property, support of a minister, etc.
Eastchester's rural makeup began to change with the coming of the railroad in the 1840's. Three hundred-seventy acres of land were incorporated at the village of Mt. Vernon in 1853 by a group of New York businessmen; the village of Bronxville was incorporated in 1898; and the village of Tuckahoe in 1903. Today, Eastchester is bound by Scarsdale on the north, New Rochelle on the east, Yonkers on the west, and Mt. Vernon on the south, the town covers approximately five square miles, including Bronxville and Tuckahoe.
