We travel all over New England and the Tri State area for Weddings, City and Town Events, Festivals, Parades, Parties, and Film Parts.  &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Our carriages have been featured in many Hollywood movies and may be seen at Mystic Seaport and other venues throughout the year.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Many different carriages available, some fully enclosed, accommodating up to 20 adults.  &lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Victoria - circa 1835&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;This elegant carriage was named by the French in honor of Queeen Victoria of England.  Driving through the park in such a carriage became the vogue for ladies of fashion.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Restored in antique white finish, brass lanterns, and a black convertible top which can be put up or down, the Victoria has easy access and graceful lines.  The main seat for the bridal couple faces the jumpseat for two additional adults.  A perfect wedding carriage pulled by two horses.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Accommodates up to 4 passengers.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Caleche - circa 1845&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Referred to as a presidential or royal carriage, this elite vehicle is very luxurious and was found exclusively in the stables of the extreme upper class.  President Lincoln owned a crriage almost idemntical to this one. It was regarded as a symbol of status, pulled by 2 or 4 horses.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Restored in burgundy with patent leather fenders and a black convertible top which may be put up or down, the Caleche also has a passenger step which automatically folds down upon opening the door.  Guaranteed to make you feel like royalty!&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Accommodates 4-6 adults.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Wagonette - 1880 replica  Hotel Wagon - circa 1840&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;These two similar vehicles are pulled by 1 or 2 horses and perfect for a wedding party or group rides.  Enter from the rear of the carriage with steps.  Very comfortable with cushioned seats and canopy top.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Accommodates 10-14 adults.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Brougham - circa 1885&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;An enclosed coach, this carriage is very private.  It features a button inside the coach which rings a bell under the driver&amp;rsquo;s seat for calling the coachman.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Restored in off-white, burgubdy and black with lanterns, this carriage can be pulled by 1 or 2 horses.  Refferred to as a Gentlemen&amp;rsquo;s Carriage, it is often used to bring the groom to the wedding site.  Accommodates 2 passengers.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Omnibus - 1865 replica&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;The Omnibus may be hired for a variety of occasions, such as city and town events, parades, shuttle services, festivals, and Christmas Caroling.  It is also a perfect vehicle for the wedding party, or for shuttling guests to the reception.  Pulled by two large draft horses, the entrance is at the rear of the bus with steps and brass handrails.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;An experience to remember for a lifetime!&lt;BR&gt;Accommodates 18-20 adults.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Cinderella Coach - circa 1842&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Enclosed with glass windows and doors, the interior has been restored in a plush, beige velvet, tufted and pleated as it had been originally.

Accommodates up to 4 passengers.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Extension Front Rockaway - circa 1882&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;This completely enclosed carriuage is perfect for protection against inclement weather.  As a winter coach, the glass windows and doors, lap rodes, muffs and harness bells offer a private and romantic retreat from the cold; in the summer, the windows and doors may be removed to welcome refreshing breezes.  This carriage is pulled by 2 horses.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;BR&gt;Restored in antique-white finish and trimmed in black, the Rockaway&amp;rsquo;s two full seats face each other and is perfect for 1 or 2 couples.
