In September, The Hitching Company was honored to be part of a wide array of meaningful events, from our enchanting nightly carriage tours through Minneapolis to intimate and grand celebrations alike. We provided elegant rides for weddings, adding a magical touch to couples' special day, as well as memorable quinceañeras, where families celebrated coming-of-age traditions. We also had the privilege of offering carriage services for funerals, providing a dignified and heartfelt tribute, and took part in a vibrant Baraat ceremony. Additionally, our E-Bike tours were a hit, offering riders a unique way to explore the city’s beautiful fall scenery.
As we look ahead, we invite you to book our services for your upcoming celebrations. Whether it’s a wedding, quinceañera, holiday gathering, or a memorable night out, The Hitching Company can make your special occasion even more unforgettable!

Celebrating the 4th of July in Forest Lake with a morning parade! The Grand Marshal Paul, Diane, and their great-granddaughter and granddaughter rode together, enjoying the parade despite a few sprinkles. The event drew a fantastic crowd, making it a memorable community celebration. Thanks for including us! Houdini pulled the carriage, and Marisa skillfully guided him through the parade.

This past Sunday, June 9, we experienced a delightful first for our company. We had the unique opportunity to be part of not one, but two weddings at the same location and time!

How did this happen? Ren and Jeff were preparing to depart from the Landmark Center in Saint Paul, Minnesota, in our carriage, heading to their first stop at Mancini’s Char House for dinner and the reception. While they were getting ready to step into the carriage, Taksh was gearing up to ride our horse, Houdini, in his Baraat Ceremony with his family and friends.

It was a magical sight to see both celebrations starting simultaneously, filled with joy and excitement. We extend our heartfelt blessings to both Sharon & Taksh and Ren & Jeff. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your special day. Your trust in The Hitching Company made this unique moment possible, and we wish you all the happiness in your new journeys together.
