General Info
- Events
Prices are determined by date, time, location and the
number of horses/carriages you are requesting or are
required and the nature of your event. Our fee covers all
preparation, set up, travel time and much more.
_______________________________________
- What is involved
Although the actual time to service your event may be
45 minutes to 2 hours, the amount of time involved for
us to prepare for your event is about 6 to 8 hours or
more. We bath and groom the horse(s), braid and use
ribbons in the mane and tail, harness up, load carriage
and horse in trailer, drive the truck and trailer to your
location, park in a suitable location, unload the horse(s)
and carriage, hook up the horse(s) to the carriage,
ensure the coachman and footman are dressed to the
nines including top hat and tails, and be ready at least a
half hour before you need us. All this happens in
reverse after the event is over and we make sure our
horses are comfortable, fed, watered, groomed and
turned out to relax. After all, the horses are what make
this special. On a regular daily basis, we take care of the
horses, including feeding, grooming, as well as make
sure they have regular visits from the farrier and vet.
________________________________________
- When we travel off site
We have a truck and trailer, which are specially
designed to transport our horses and carriage. When
we arrive, we discreetly set up everything 'out of site'.
We will be ready to serve you at the time and location
that you have specified on our Agreement.
________________________________________
- How far do we travel
The horses are located at Harvest Moon Farm in
Camden, NC on the mainland, but we will transport them
to the Outer Banks, from Corolla to Manteo, and to
Hatteras or Virginia with a mileage surcharge. Service is
also available on the mainland within a 100 mile radius
of Elizabeth City. For the sake of our horses, we prefer
to stay within a 100 mile maximum radius from the farm.
________________________________________
- How many hours will you need
Packages include a time frame of a half hour to two
hours. A horse drawn carriage is ideal for short
distances. Therefore, as you travel at a relaxed pace,
you are able to enjoy your special day. Allow approx. 15-
20 min. per mile and keep travel distance within a two-
three mile radius. Be sure to allot enough time for
photos with the carriage,and/or travel time to your event.
If two hours is not enough for your event, you can
reserve an extra hour or two for $200 an hour. If several
hours are required, we will change out horses to keep
them fresh.
________________________________________
- We go above and beyond
Two courteous drivers are outfitted in tuxedos and top
hats. For a wedding or special event, if desired a
sparkling beverage will be served to 'celebrate the
moment! Knowing the best angles to photograph a
horse and carriage, your driver/attendant will work as a
team to ensure your photographer gets 'the perfect
pictures'!
