Dec 14 2013 Snow in the Forecast


The snow is coming!
Wagon rides in the snow are so much fun!
Latest weather report says 1-3 inches in Central NJ before changing to rain tonight.
2-4 inches in Northern areas and Long Island.
We can deal with that.
Hope we don't get any cancellations.
It's 8 am and no snow yet - hope it holds off for a few hours.
Come to Red Bank for a free ride and some shopping. 
Hope we get some great pictures to post today.

Cinderella Carriage Service Review


From Spring Lake, New Jersey Dec 6 2013
Rain cover was on carriage because it was a nasty rainy day.
Look at all the flowers hanging in the carriage.
We love what we do and it shows with this review from  our happy client
Priscilla Miller.

5.0/5.0
Quality of Service: (5.0/5.0)
Responsiveness: (5.0/5.0)
Professionalism: (5.0/5.0)
Value: (5.0/5.0)
Flexibility: (5.0/5.0)
we arranged a surprise pumpkin carriage pickup for my daughter and new husband from the church to the reception. the service was impeccable and the event was spectacular. for 1 hr the happy couple were in a dream world with folks cheering them and cars honking for them. The pumpkin coach was magnificent and worth every penny!

Quinceanera Blog Post

This is my Blog Post

A Horse Drawn Carriage 

for your Quinceañera

Horse drawn carriage for your quinceanera
The Shadowbrook, Shrewsbury, NJ
Arriving at your Quinceañera and making a grand entrance is one detail that 
can really make a splash at your party. 
Have you ever considered a carriage? Hiring a horse drawn carriage is a wonderful way for 
La Quinceanera to arrive at her event.
Dream Horse Carriages is one company that offers this service. 
Most of their Quinceaneras use a Cinderella Pumpkin Carriage, but traditional white carriages 
are available too.
Owner Tania Lawson mentions that when considering a carriage company families should read 
their reviews and endorsements and browse their website for pictures of recent events. 
This will help you decide if the carriage is right for you and insure you are working with 
a reputable vendor. 
The carriage company you choose should be willing to help you plan how to use their services 
to make your event special.
You can also approach the planner at your venue and ask if they have a company they recommend. 
You’ll also want to ask if they allow the horse and carriage on their premises.
Some Quinces use the carriages for all travel on that day, but it could also be a shorter trip. 
You could start at the birthday girl’s home, go to the church and then proceed to the party venue. 
Or you could just do a grand entrance and pictures at the venue. 
Most companies limit the distance traveled in the carriage to 3 miles unless it is a round trip.
Are you thinking of using a horse drawn carriage at your event? We’d love to hear about it!

Mr and Mrs Hall at Nanina's


Dear Tania,

We cannot stress enough how happy we were with Dream Horse Carriages!! You helped make our fairy tale fantasy wedding become a true reality! Not only were we able to take some AMAZING pictures, but the entire experience of riding down the streets like we were in a parade, with people clapping and honking their horns in congratulations, as well as riding through the serene and beautiful park setting was absolutely priceless. Those memories will last a lifetime and really helped our wedding to stand out and made it even more special than we could have ever imagined! Our guests loved taking pictures with our unicorn and carriage, as well! I think having the unicorn option was so fun and really added to the surprise for our family and friends! Thank you so much for providing us with excellent service and a truly magical concept! Best of luck to you in the future and with all of your endeavors!

Very truly yours,
Kara & Jim Hall

Reproduction Victorian Horse and Carriage



My friend in Texas had this carriage built and I fell in love with it.
So I looked into having one made for us.
OK after talking to Vic Raber from the Raber Buggy Shop in Indiana we decided the carriage we will build will have a dove gray top to match the seats and will have reproduction European lanterns. I am getting so excited to offer this to my clients. Truly a reproduction of a Victorian Style Carriage.

Make a Wish Dreams Come True

At Make a Wish
Elberon NJ


Two children had dreams of riding in a Cinderella Carriage and here we are. 
It's very hot even near the Ocean so we brought extra water and we are 
sponging down the horse to keep him cool.
Another child had a wished for a helicopter ride so there was a helicopter landing
down the road.

Tania,
Thanks so much for being a part of our spectacular event today! Our turnout was amazing!
Matt was great! The horse and carriage were spectacular.  I wish you could've seen the girls faces getting to see that carriage and ride in it.
The crowd welled up in tears watching it.
Thank you for participating and making as we call a "Mitzvah" (good selfless deed)
Hope to work together again in the near future.

Best Regards,
Esther Dana
