Vintage Red Double Decker routemaster bus with period advertising on its right side

About this vehicle:

The AEC Routemaster is an iconic vehicle, as synonymous with London as landmarks like Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament. Having served the city's streets for over half a century, this classic double-decker bus has earned its place in history and popular culture. It makes for a fantastic bus for wedding hire.

 

With their high capacity and vintage charm, Routemasters are a stylish way to travel and bring even more charm to your wedding day. Regularly updated and maintained, they feature an open rear platform for easy boarding. This bus can seat 64 passengers across both levels, making it an ideal choice for transporting guests to and from your venues.

 

It’s available for wedding hire in Nottinghamshire, across East Midlands and in nearby counties.

 

Food and drinks on board this bus:

 

Food and drink are welcome on this bus, as long as this is agreed in advance. We simply ask that you let us know what you plan to bring and when it will be loaded onto the bus.

Small beer bottles and cans are fine, as they are easy and safe to handle. For everyone’s safety, bottles must not be opened or popped on the bus. If you would like to enjoy bubbly, this can be opened off the bus and served in plastic cups before boarding. Those drinks can then be brought on board if needed.

Please note that all drinks must be in plastic, cans, or cartons. At the end of the journey, we kindly ask that all rubbish is collected and removed.

In the unlikely event of sickness or spillages that require professional cleaning, a valet charge of £150 will apply. 

We take great pride in our vintage vehicles and ask that you and your guests treat them with care throughout your journey.

Glynne was brilliant on our wedding day. He arrived early, immaculately turned out and the car spotless. It felt so special arriving in a Rolls-Royce. Glynne took us for a drive after the wedding and was super accommodating whilst we took some pictures with the car. Thank you.

Beautiful car as described. It arrived earlier than expected which meant there was no stress waiting for it. Driver was very friendly and helpful. We had 5 people in the car and had plenty of room even with a large wedding dress. It was lovely to arrive at the venue with the top down. All in all so glad we chose this car and service.
