WEDDING CHAUFFEUR · THE EGLINTON GRAND · YONGE–EGLINTON
A black Escalade pulled up to the The Eglinton Grand arrival point while the photographer sets up. The Eglinton Grand sits on a busy Yonge–Eglinton stretch. Gloved hand on the door, white ribbons on the hood, champagne chilled in the cabin. The bridal party gets the ceremony; we get everything else.
FROM THE ROAD
The Lincoln Continental matches the venue's Art Deco vintage — classic 4-door profile under the curved neon-style marquee, geometric stone facade overhead. We stage at the side of the marquee so the photographer gets the lettering, the chrome trim, and the wedding car in one cinematic composition.
WHAT IS INCLUDED
The standard kit for a yonge–eglinton wedding day. No upcharge for the day-of details that should already be there.
Classic ivory bow on the hood and the rear door handles, on request at booking.
Six-foot rolled carpet for the curb-to-door step, kept in the rear cargo for the reception arrival.
Two flutes, chilled bottle, non-alcoholic option in the cabin for the bridal-party ride to photos.
The driver pre-maps the photographer’s chosen stops within fifteen minutes of the venue.
Vehicle on standby for the reception exit. Quiet pickup, hotel or after-party drop.
Separate sedan optional for the mothers and fathers of the couple, staged ten minutes ahead of the bridal car.
CHOOSE THE DAY YOU NEED
THE DAY, MINUTE BY MINUTE
Sample timeline from a downtown hotel pickup. Yours adjusts to your venue flow and photographer; the rhythm is the same.
Escalade staged at the hotel or prep-house curb, ribbons on, champagne chilled. Doorman pre-notified so the bridal party isn’t dodging valet traffic with a dress.
The Eglinton Grand sits on a busy Yonge–Eglinton stretch. Bridal cars stage at the marquee entrance on Eglinton, but during rush we use the rear lane access off Roselawn for a quieter pickup — the building’s rear entry sits behind the original 1939 theatre canopy.
The art-deco marquee out front for the period-frame shot; the building’s original lobby for the gold-leaf interior; Yonge–Eglinton north for the Toronto-streetcar-and-marquee combo; ten-minute run east to Mount Pleasant Cemetery for tree-canopy portraits. All pre-mapped with your photographer at the planner debrief.
Pull up to the reception entrance with planner waiting and DJ cued. Step-out timed with the music intro. Photographer pre-positioned.
Receptions in the upstairs Grand Foyer wrap by midnight — the chauffeur is staged on Roselawn lane by 11:45 p.m. Vehicle stays on call until you are inside.
VEHICLE FOR THIS VENUE
The Eglinton marquee canopy clears the Escalade with about four inches of headroom. The Sprinter’s standing height is too tall; we drop the party at the side curb and walk in.
For the couple-only photo-departure package. Fits anywhere on the property.
The default The Eglinton Grand ride. Escalade with six-passenger cabin for the bridal party + parents.
For the larger wedding party. 7–14 passengers, lounge seating, stand-up cabin.

WEDDING-ONLY FLEET ADDITION
Across our network we don’t stage stretch limousines for airport, corporate, or hourly bookings — the brand defaults to executive sedan, full-size SUV, and Sprinter for those. Weddings are the one exception.
On request we can stage a Lincoln Continental 8-passenger Stretch Limousine with white-leather interior, classic white ribbon-and-pole option, complimentary champagne service, and a tuxedo-and-cap chauffeur. The stretch joins or replaces the S-Class / Escalade in any of the wedding packages above; price quoted on request via dispatch. 14-day lead time, subject to fleet availability for your date.
THE FLEET
Executive sedan, electric sedan, full-size SUV, and group transport (Sprinter + party bus). No stretch limos. Every vehicle detailed daily and tracked GPS-live by dispatch.
Executive sedan · 1–3 passengers
Cadillac EV (Lyriq / Celestiq) · 1–3 passengers
