Its distinctive design and vibrant red colour have made it an iconic bus for wedding hire. ! This beautifully restored Routemaster wedding bus is available to hire for your special day.

This bus has been meticulously preserved and updated, making it perfect for transporting wedding guests in comfort and elegance. With an open rear platform for easy boarding, the Routemaster can seat 40 passengers on the upper deck and 32 on the lower deck, providing ample space for friends and family. Available for hire in London and the home counties, this charming vintage bus ensures a memorable and picturesque journey on your special day.

What a superb day made even better by this stunning limousine. Our chauffeur was fantastic, helpful, kind and genuinely gracious. The glass of prosecco on the return journey was especially welcome! Thank you for being the best!

Dear Adrian,
There should be a bigger and more meaningful word or phrase than ‘thank you’ for what you did for us on Sunday. Helping us the way you did has just blown us away and we are ever grateful to you. You really, truly are one in a million and we will never, ever forget your selfless act of kindness on Abigail and Rob’s wedding day.
Not only was it a life saver but it made the day extra special for us all and gave us an experience to remember.
Love and blessings and heartfelt thanks
Andrew, Cathy, Abigail, Rob and all the family

Dear Aidi,
We wanted to send a little card to say a huge thank you for letting us use your beautiful camper for our wedding day! It is in such good condition and we had so many compliments about it! Thank you too for letting us have our photos taken in front of it, some of our best pictures include the van! I have sent them to Kayleigh for you to see :)
Thanks again! and please accept the bubbles as an extra thank you.
Lots of love from, Gail and Ben xx

I hired an Aston Martin for my husband as a surprise on for our wedding day and our experience was absolutely fantastic. The team were incredibly accommodating from start to finish. I had to make multiple changes to the booking and they were always patient, flexible and helpful.
The price was very reasonable for such a luxury car and the service we received.
On the day itself, the car arrived promptly and right on time, which really helped everything run smoothly and kept stress levels low. The Aston Martin was in immaculate condition, beautifully presented, clean, and truly added something special and memorable to the day. It looked amazing in photos and made the journey feel extra special for my husband.
I would highly recommend this service to any couple looking for stylish, reliable, and professional wedding car experience. Thank you, Adrian, for helping make our wedding day perfect! Kathryn & james
