Wedded Bliss or Bust Giveaway
There are many great wedding day stories out there, some funny, some sad and some horrific as a pre-planned day went terribly wrong. Most involve an automobile, truck or even motorcycle that was the focal point of the post-ceremony celebration (or getaway). Even if everything went as planned, if you had an interesting vehicle involved in your wedding we’d like to share that, too. Send your stories and image(s) of your wedding day transportation and we’ll publish them for the enjoyment of readers. The Old Cars Weekly staff will randomly select one submission to receive a valuable gift package . (Think of it as a belated wedding present!)
Anyone who has ever walked down the aisle – whether once or multiple times – probably remembers the wedding car involved in whisking away the bride and groom while the rice was still flying. Better yet, there are photographs to support that special moment when true love was at its peak and anticipation of honeymoon adventure was heavy.

Cooking duties can be a sticking point in marriage, so this vintage and collectible grilling chef’s apron adds a comic twist to the gift package. It’s modeled by Krause Publications’ books database specialist Sandi Morrison. (Kris Kandler photo)
