You’re more than welcome to view the wedding car with no obligation to book. In fact, we encourage perspective clients to view the car, especially if you are intending to book for six or seven passengers. Viewing will give you a feel for the outstanding condition and impressive size of the vintage limousine, as well as giving you an opportunity to meet your chauffeur in person.

If you’re interested in booking a vehicle as rare as a vintage limousine, you should consider making your booking as soon as possible. Summer Saturdays are often booked 12 months in advance, if you’re wedding day is rapidly approaching though, it may still be worth contacting us to check availability.

If you’re sure you want to make a booking, we’re happy to hold a date for up to 7 days. If the booking process has not been completed by this time, the date will become available to new clients.

If you have already checked our availability and cost and you would like to finalise the booking process you need to complete a booking form, sign a terms and conditions form and pay a deposit of £100-, the balance would be payable no later than 30 days before the wedding.

It is possible to seat seven passengers, by seating three on each of the rear rows and one in the front; however, this may reduce the level of comfort. If you need to transport six or seven adults, I recommend you look at the vehicle before booking.
