About this vehicle:
One of the most widely recognised vehicles the world over, the AEC Routemaster is a timeless icon. It has as much London pedigree as Big Ben or The Houses of Parliament. First introduced in the 1950s, this classic double-decker bus became an integral part of the city’s public transport system, operating for over five decades. 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.
For weddings, the Routemaster offers a unique blend of nostalgia and style. 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. This old Red Bus can often be seen at some popular registry office in London.

Not only is the car utterly stunning, Adrian’s attention to detail, care and enthusiasm for his client’s plans is wonderful. Communication and logistics planning was smooth and easy in the lead up to the wedding and on the day Adrian rolled with the changes, always with a smile on his face.
It was a pleasure to work with Adrian and hope to again.

Five stars isn't enough! Every bit of our interaction with Laleen from our first contact to wrapping up on our wedding day was so easy and effortless. Laleen arrived early, removing any stress or anxiety about hitting traffic or being late. He is such a special person and truly went the extra mile to create some magic moments for us that we will cherish forever! The car is every bit as magnificent as you'd expect! Can't recommend Laleen enough - just great!

An amazing day. This was made all the better by the car and more importantly our driver Jerry. He was great. Supportive, reassuring, flexible, accommodating and with a great sense of humour. Thank you Jerry. There was nothing that could have been done to improve our experience. Thank you too Terry.
