About this vehicle:

The Red London Routemaster bus is as iconic as the famous London black cabs. This particular bus was first registered on December 1st 1965 and was in operation across various areas of the capital until 2005! Having been fully restored to its original, vintage glory, it makes for a fantastic wedding bus.

 

It is capable of seating up to 42 seated and 10 standing passengers on the lower deck. It has the option (at extra cost) to have food and drinks served en-route. Some of the photos show the bus decked out as a bar with drinks and canapes and also as an afternoon tea service. 

 

We are sure you will not find a better way to travel to your wedding venue along with all your guests. It is a unique experience that will add charm to your big day.

A huge thank you to Nick for the most amazing service on our wedding day. He arrived with plenty of time to spare and there was no pressure to leave for the ceremony until I was ready. Nick then drove us from the ceremony to our venue and made the whole experience so easy and such fun for us. We had so many compliments on the car. Thanks for making us feel so special!

Absolutely amazing from first contact to saying goodbye. Communication through WhatsApp was good and nothing was too much hassle. We requested a play list to be played to our wedding and to the after venue and was no problem. Harry arrived at our home early which was nice to show off the wedding car before setting off. The car itself "WOW" there is no more explanation needed. We asked for gold ribbon which was the perfect colour match. He was the perfect chauffeur and didn't rush us and let us take our time. We were even surprised to find a small gift from Harry when we got back into the gorgeous car when heading to the after venue. A massive thank you for making our day that little bit more special.

Had a fabulous experience from start to finish with Keyhole Motors for my daughter’s wedding car! Hired a beautifully spotless blue & ivory Imperial Landaulette and can’t thank driver Dave enough. Would definitely recommend everyone involved!! Thanks

Wow, what a car and what a driver. Everything was perfect, no rush service in a fantastic car. My daughter had no idea that we had arranged the car and was genuinely blown away. A perfect start to a perfect day.
