Selection: Mercedes-Benz G63 wedding car
Why the G63 is such a striking wedding car
The Mercedes-Benz G-Class has been around since the late 1970s and has never really changed shape: flat panels, an upright windscreen, round headlights and a spare wheel on the rear door. The G63 is the AMG version, with a powerful V8, wide wheels and exhausts that exit at the sides beneath the doors. Where a classic wedding car is mainly graceful, this car stands out for its square, almost military silhouette.
That makes the G63 a good fit for couples who don't want a traditional wedding. It suits a party at an industrial venue, a beach pavilion or a country estate where you arrive along a gravel drive. For a groom who drives himself, this car is also a real experience: the seating position is high and the sound is very much present.
Two generations of G-Class as a wedding car
As a wedding car, you will come across two versions. Until 2018 the original G-Class was built: narrower, even more angular, and with a dashboard that clearly belongs to older Mercedes models. After that came an updated version that is wider and more modern inside, but kept the recognisable shape. For photos it makes little difference: the silhouette has stayed the same.
Getting in, your dress and seating in the G-Class
The most important practical point is the height. You take a considerable step up, usually via a running board. With a slim dress that is perfectly manageable, but with a full skirt or long train it is wise to practise beforehand. Let the groom or a witness give you a hand, sit down on the seat first and then bring your legs and the fabric inside. Getting out works the same way, in reverse order.
Once inside, there is plenty of room. The rear seat is wider than in a sports car, and the high roofline means a hairstyle or veil won't press against the ceiling. In practice, allow for four adults, or for the couple with a full skirt on the rear seat.
Driving and parking
The G63 is wide and has a large turning circle. In a narrow town centre or a tight car park by the town hall, manoeuvring takes time. It is therefore a good idea to agree a drop-off spot in advance where the car can stop for a moment.
Also keep the car's dimensions in mind at your venue. A low gate, a narrow bridge over a moat or a canopy at the entrance can be a problem for a tall off-roader. Ask the venue beforehand where the car can stop and turn.
The G63 in your wedding day schedule
This car calls for a photo moment where its shape really shows: from the side on a forest track, head-on in front of a rugged façade or among tall dunes. A slightly raised vantage point shows off the angular lines well. White ribbons or a flower arrangement on the bonnet work, but keep it understated; the car itself is already bold.
Torn between rugged and classic? Then also take a look at the other Mercedes-Benz wedding cars, from the Pagode to the Ponton. If you would like to stay in the same style, a Land Rover Defender as a wedding car is an honest comparison, or view the full overview of luxury wedding cars.
Frequently asked questions
How much does it cost to hire a Mercedes-Benz G63 as a wedding car?
The lowest price currently online is € 849 per day. The final price depends on the duration, the distance, whether a chauffeur is included and the date; demand is highest in the wedding season and on Saturdays. Every car shows its starting price, and when you request a quote you get a price for your own day.
Can you hire a Mercedes-Benz G63 as a wedding car with a chauffeur?
The wedding car currently online is self-drive. With a chauffeur you do not have to think about parking, the route or the time, and the couple sit together in the back. Self-drive gives you freedom, but do ask about the deposit, the insurance and the minimum age. Every car page shows what is possible.
Isn't a G63 too high to climb into in a wedding dress?
It is certainly high, but with a running board and a helping hand it works well. Sit down first and then swing your legs inside, rather than stepping up with one leg at a time. With a very full skirt or a long train, it helps to gather the fabric together beforehand. Ideally, try it out once at your dress fitting or when you meet the rental company.
Does a G63 suit a classic church wedding?
That depends on the impression you want to make. At a simple, traditional service the G63 can work as a contrast, but it looks distinctly modern and rugged. If you want everything to match, a classic Mercedes is a better fit. Many couples choose the G63 precisely because the rest of their day is contemporary too, for example with a reception at an industrial or outdoor venue.
Are flowers or ribbons allowed on a G63?
Usually yes, but always check with the rental company first. Modern paintwork scratches easily, and the bonnet of the G-Klasse is flat, so a large decoration can slide off quickly. Use soft suction cups or ribbons that are tied to the mirrors and door handles. Many rental companies deliver the car already decorated or have set rules about what is and isn't allowed.
How much room is there in the G63 for the bride and groom and the witnesses?
Two people sit comfortably in the front, and the back seat has room for two adults, or for the bride and groom with a full skirt. The high roof gives plenty of headroom, which is handy with an updo or a veil. The boot, behind the side-opening rear door, is large enough for a bag with everything you need for the day.
