Horse & Carriage to the Arch

There is no need for a limo when you can have a beautiful horse pull your carriage through town to The Arch at Lakeside Beach, a private beach area that you’ll assuredly find picture-perfect for your significant event. The private coach will depart from the center of town near the casinos and will carry the bride and groom or selected bridal party members to the ceremony site.

The approximate 10 minute stroll is an enjoyable one that should have you feeling relaxed as you arrive at the eye-catching beachside location. The coach’s capacity allows up to 6 people, so all other guests that will attend your wedding will meet at the event area.

Provided for you at this private venue are all the basic prescribed services plus chairs to accommodate all your guests, an arch, a sound system for the music that you furnish, a staff member to greet and direct your arriving guests, and a spectacular backdrop for the wedding photos.

This lakeside beach location is not only an enthralling ceremony site, but it’s also an ideal spot for convenience as it is situated in the central part of town. Additionally, the lakefront venue is very spacious and can accommodate large parties of up to 75 guests, suitable for either formal or informal attire.

As an added luxury (at additional cost), the horse drawn carriage can remain until the ceremonial event concludes and carry you and your new spouse away to the reception banquet or other preferred destination (if within half of a mile of the wedding site). Be sure to bring your favorite bottle of champagne for a celebratory toast along the way.
