Wedding & Event Hire

Weddings & special occasions

A self-drive classic wedding car to hire is a great way to make a wedding different - whether as cars for the groom or bride - or to add a special touch to a special occasion. Our classics are very popular for special events and we've learnt that no two occasions are the same. So our wedding and special occasions package is all about creating something totally unique.

Make your day unique with our bespoke wedding car package

Self drive wedding car hire is becoming very popular because it gives you much more flexibility and choice. Instead of a traditional white Rolls Royce you can choose wedding transport that suits the style and character of your wedding. You'll also find that our prices are very competitive compared to chauffeur drive and our hire package allows you to collect and return the car to suit your plans.

A hire package that fits around your plans

We realise that most weddings are on Saturday afternoons. With most AM to PM hire packages you'd have to collect the car on Saturday morning, which isn't always ideal. So we hire our cars out for full 24 hour periods, not just AM to PM. This means that you can collect the car on Friday evening instead of Saturday morning and you only need to book two days.

Our hire package also gives you unlimited mileage and full insurance cover.

Personal planning for your big day

Every time we hire one of our cars is different. We work hard to make the experience unique and our wedding planning service is no different. We'll work with you to make sure that the details for your car hire are absolutely right and fit into your other plans.

If you would like to include one of our cars in your special occasion, we can put together a unique package, including:

Pre-hire viewing and inspection service - check out the car before you hire it
Self drive hire of our Jensen, Alfa, Jaguar or Morris
Delivery and collection service - eg. for weddings we can deliver the car to your venue and collect it from the airport
Tailored pricing based on the exact hours you want the cars
Car decoration service - ribbons etc to suit your colour theme
Use of our photo library for prints, cards and framed gifts

We'll take your requirements and create a unique package that fits in with your plans for the special occasion. Call Graham and Janine on 01527 893733 or email info@greatescapecars.co.uk for more details.
