Why Couples Pick a Real Classic Over a Replica
A lot of “vintage” wedding cars are modern chassis dressed up to look old, or kit cars built on a newer frame. The 1962 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II is the genuine article — a car older than most of the venues it pulls up to. That authenticity reads on camera. The proportions, the chrome, the hand-finished detail of an early-sixties Rolls are things a replica approximates but never quite matches, and a good photographer will use every bit of it.
A real classic also brings a real classic's character. The door shuts with weight. The interior smells like leather, not air freshener. It is not the car you take to beat traffic — it is the car you take for the eight blocks between the church and the first photo stop, slowly, with the windows down. Couples book it precisely because it is an occasion, not transportation.
Pairing the Silver Cloud With the Rest of the Day
The Silver Cloud seats three, so it is built for the couple and the moment — the entrance, the portraits, the exit — not for hauling a twelve-person bridal party. Most couples book it as the centerpiece car and pair it with a second vehicle for everyone else. A Cadillac Escalade carries the parents, a Mercedes Sprinter moves the wedding party, and a party bus handles the after-party run, while the vintage Rolls does the photography and the headline arrivals.
Booking both through one operator keeps the day on a single timeline. Our dispatch coordinates the classic car and the support vehicles so the Silver Cloud is parked and ready for the exit shot while the Sprinter is already staged to take guests to the reception. That sequencing is the difference between a smooth wedding day and a series of small waits that eat into your photographer's light.
Booking a Classic Car by Season
There is exactly one 1962 Silver Cloud in the fleet, so it books on a first-come basis and peak Saturdays from May through October fill months ahead. If a vintage car is part of your vision, reserve the date as early as you can — we hold it with a deposit and lock current-year pricing so a later rate increase does not reach you.
A few practical notes for planning around a 60-year-old car. It has the original ventilation, not modern air conditioning, so for a hot summer wedding we steer photo time toward the cooler golden hour and keep the between-venue legs short; chilled water and hand fans ride along. The car is driven gently and maintained to show condition, which is part of why it stays photo-ready. Royal Carriage runs the booking on the same flat-fare basis as the rest of the fleet, with a uniformed chauffeur included and 24/7 dispatch at (224) 801-3090.
Vintage Wedding Car FAQ
What vintage car do you offer for weddings?+
A 1962 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II. Two-tone cream and silver, chrome wire wheels, red leather interior. It's been fully restored and maintained to show-car condition. This is a real classic, not a replica.

Our Silver Cloud is $550 per hour with a 3-hour minimum ($1,650 starting). That includes a uniformed chauffeur, "Just Married" signage, and coordination with your photographer for arrival and departure shots.
Can we use the vintage car for wedding photos?+

What Our Clients Say
Thousands of Chicago travelers book with Royal Carriage for airports, weddings, and corporate travel.
“Our September wedding needed 3 vehicles — a Rolls Royce for us, a stretch limo for the bridal party, and a Sprinter shuttle for 14 guests. Every driver arrived 20 minutes early to the Drake. The coordinator handled our timeline flawlessly from ceremony through the reception at the Peninsula.”
