Overall a good experience. the car was in great condition and clean and the driver very polite and courteous and arrived on time. Some communication issues however…. I did telephone days before to discuss a different pickup address which was a very short distance from the original and was told that this caused no issues at all.

This is a beautiful car. A surprise for the bride and her bridesmaids and they were thrilled. Communications with the chauffeur James were excellent. Neither could have been more helpful and accommodating. I am delighted with both the vericle and the service provided. I have not yet received the official wedding photos but will forward copies once I have them.

We hired a Land Rover as our wedding car, and it honestly couldn’t have been more perfect. The vehicle itself was absolutely stunning and fit the setting of our North Yorkshire wedding beautifully — rugged, classic, and full of character. It made for some amazing photo opportunities out on the moorland!Our driver was fantastic from start to finish. He arrived on time (actually early, which really helped calm the nerves), was incredibly professional, and had such a friendly, relaxed manner that instantly put everyone at ease — especially the bride and her dad on the drive to the venue.After the ceremony, he took us out for photos across the moors, and it turned into one of our favourite parts of the day. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience possible — nothing felt rushed, and his attention to detail really showed.We can’t thank him enough for helping make our day so special. Highly recommend to anyone looking for something a bit different, memorable, and full of charm for their wedding transport.— Ross & Amy Hinchliffe
