We had a fantastic day ! The car was beautiful and the Driver was caring and looked after my father who had a medical condition which meant he needed help in to and out of the car. The car is fantastic for a Brides big day if they want to travel with both Mum and Dad to their wedding. Thanks for making this a special memory for us all. We also enjoyed hearing the horn peep and waving at pedestrians as we made our way along the seafront to the Registry Office.

We booked our wedding routemaster bus through premier. The booking process was smooth and the price was good compared to other companies that we researched. Our driver (Steve) and his team on the day were amazing, very professional and went above and beyond. I cannot fault the actual team who provided the bus.

Both Didier and Peter were great to work with. The details were clarified with Didier and once passed to Peter, we had 2 phone calls ahead of the wedding to ensure everything was correct. Peter arrived promptly to pick the Bride up prior to the ceremony and was happy to take a slightly longer route to fit our timings better. The car was lovely and we had a great chat with Peter on the way to our reception, he was very friendly. Everything ran smoothly, we would 100% recommend to friends and family. The car was a big talking point for the rest of the day, and still now!

Excellent service. Came on time and the car was immaculate. Unfortunately the weather wasnt on our side and we couldn't take any photos with the car. I would highly recommend Premier Carriage for a wedding car hire.
