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.

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!

Incredible service from start to finish. Hassan messaged to say he had arrived early but not to rush. We came out a little late but nothing was too much trouble for him. There was water in the door, he put the air con on for us and drove steady for us to enjoy the journey. 5* service and would recommend to anyone. Thank you so much, Hassan.

We had such a fabulous time! The bus arrived on time and the staff were extremely friendly. We paid extra for a drinks service and they were so lovely the entire time. They drove us around for a while then parked and let us take as many photos as we wished. Our guests loved the experience, would definitely recommend! Thanks all!

We had a great experience with Premier Carriage for our wedding vehicle. The car was gorgeous, and it was such a hot say so we requested to have the top down which was taken care of straight away. They were punctual and made the experience very stress free. Premier Carriage was very professional from the beginning and I highly recommend them for any special occasion!
