Excellent service and the driver and assistant were lovely and very helpful. Fully recommended if you need a bus for any proposes. Our wedding guests loved the bus and it was a real head turner, driving from Hastings to our home town and wedding venue in Rye. We got plenty of waves and attention. Thank you!

Adrian provided a fantastic and friendly service, adding the perfect finishing touch to our James Bond themed wedding. The car looked amazing and we really enjoyed the ride from the church to our reception.We did not feel rushed at all and as it started to rain Adrian was even there ready with the Aston Martin umbrella!  Julian & Rachel

We were so lucky to have Catherine - the beautiful Austin Princess booked for our wedding by my wonderful mother-in-law.The car was immaculate and even better than the pictures. Every attention to detail was there and it was a glorious ride to and from the service to the venue.The driver was so smart and welcoming, there in plenty of time and gave us a lovely drive and we got lots of honks and waves along the way. A really regal experience that our two little flower girls loved, so much so that we could not say no when they wanted to come back to the venue with us. The smiles on their faces was priceless.My groom and I have such wonderful memories of our day, and this car was really the icing on the cake. We also got a gorgeous keepsake velvet pouch with a snippet of the car ribbon and the cork from our bubbly which we will keep forever.Thank you Andrew!
