To all,

I have a wedding on the 18th October and would like to organise some Mini's for a Mini-convoy through the Sydney CBD to transport guests. Start at around 4:30pm till about 5:30/6:00pm. Route is only ~2km round trip.

It might tie in well with those attending another wedding earlier in the day.

I plan to contact TV/Radio to see if they are interested as a late night news grab (would be easy, most crews are near cbd for other stuff anyway).

pm for details

Daniel

Hey Daniel,

Might be able to jump in on this one, but a few issues.
1. No one can sit in the back seat - no belts
2. No one can get INTO the back seat because of the bucket seats.

If you still need - let me know.

Pete

Thanks for the replies everyone, Chop is onto something here as there should be plenty of time to make it between the two.

I have had little response so far so I am going with my BINI (for the flower girls) and taxis for those that need it. I already have cars organised for the rest of the bridal party.

Thanks for those who showed interest, I appreciate it

Daniel

Sucks that the Sydney people couldn't come out in force for you. I would've been there in a flash if it was in Brissy. Glad to hear you have alternate transport arranged - hope it is a great day!

It's a shame, but perhaps people's enthusiasm was softened by the recent attempted scam.

I hope people's trust will be repaired in short time.
