Getting married in Perth
Decided to tie the knot with my better half at last.... 
so we are going to take the two kiddies (11mths and 23 mths by time of travel) to Perth WA for Xmas and to 'do the deed'. 
We have been a couple of times before and thought that the Margaret River region would be a nice place to consider. Does anyone know of any good accomodation in the area (approx 1 weeks duration)..? We will also require some accomodation in Perth itself for approx 3weeks so is it best to attempt to hire a holiday let? Dates of travel are 27th Nov 2006 to 3rd Jan 2007.....Thanks in advance!
Nearly forgot to ask....does anyone recommend a good cheap car hire co in Perth that will hire out Kiddie seats too??

If you are a bit short of guests, we will come. Love weddings.
Meelup beach is gorgeous, our friends got married there, Ive seen lots of weddings in the Parks where we live [Dalyellup] also.
Ill try and find out about accomodation, in fact there have been a couple of post lately, reccie trips, they mentioned Margaret river. Check them out.
Good Luck Denise

We paid £271 for a car for 17 days from Perth airport with www.europcar.com that was with one booster seat hired and 2 drivers on the insurance. Fab service from them and the car was a Nissan Pulsar Automatic with aircon and cruise and unlimited km. No doubt could have got it cheaper from outside of the airport but it was just easier for us to do it that way.

Re: Getting married in Perth
I've just put in the full dates you are travelling and it's come back with a quote of $1585.25 which is £636.29 at today's exchange. That's with the Nissan Pulsar the same as we had. Not a bad price for 4 weeks car hire. I know people use bayswater car rental so you could try them, they're not at the airport though.

Hi! Thanks, but I don't know if you have a discount code because for that car I get a quote of $2200! Heres the link https://www.europcar.com/tools/frame...RENTALCNTRY=AU

Oh just to let you know, there'll be an extra charge for the booster seats and you need to put it in the additional info part of the booking else they won't know you need them. I think they were about $5 a day but if you email them they'll tell you.
Also, the sooner you book it the better - you don't actually pay until you get there anyway, but just as a guide, my brother in law who came with us reserved his car a week after we did and it cost him £100 more! So the sooner you book it the better
