Verified Reviews from Past Clients

We had this car for our wedding day and it was absolutely perfect! It was a beautiful car, incredibly clean and received so many compliments. Mike was very helpful in the lead up to the day, always answering my questions promptly and nothing was ever a trouble. Peter, the driver on the day, was amazing - he was friendly, arrived early and was really kind and helpful. When we arrived at the venue there was some rain, and Peter helped me stay dry with his big umbrella, which I really appreciated. He gave us complimentary Prosecco and stayed until we had finished our photos with the car. Peter also let my husband’s Grandad sit in the driver’s seat, which he absolutely loved and made for one our favourite photos from the day. Thank you so much for being such a special part of our wedding day!

My driver was fantastic! He turned up half an hour earlier which gave us a good opportunity to take some photos with the car before we set off. The driver was polite and professional, very well dressed and was happy to go above and beyond for my day. The car was beautifully presented and suited the whole theme of my day! It was also within our budget too which was even better! Thank you so much! You made the start of my day very special!
