Wedding transport is a timing problem, not a vehicle problem. Getting forty guests from a hotel to a church for 1pm, to a reception across town for 4pm, and home again at midnight, is three separate jobs that have to interlock. We plan it as one. We hire vehicles from 9-seat MPVs to 70-seat coaches with a driver for weddings across London and the Home Counties, at a fixed price agreed in writing before the day.
For most London weddings, a full-day hire with the vehicle held between runs works out cheaper than booking three separate journeys. We will price it both ways and tell you which is better for your timings.
Guests from hotels to the ceremony. The common mistake is booking this too tight. Allow for the group that is never quite ready, and for the fact that a 16-seater cannot stop on a double yellow outside a church while everyone finds their hats.
If your venues are apart, this is the run that decides whether your reception starts on time. If guest numbers exceed one vehicle, we can either send two vehicles or run a shuttle — one vehicle doing two trips. A shuttle is cheaper; two vehicles are faster. We will tell you what each costs and roughly what each means for your schedule.
Almost always the run people underbook. Guests leave in waves, not all at once, and taxis at midnight in outer London are not reliable. A booked vehicle at a known time is the only version of this that works. If you want two departure times — say 22:30 and 00:30 — say so when you book; drivers' hours rules mean we need to plan for it rather than extend on the night.

Send us the two venues and your guest numbers and we will send back a written schedule and a fixed price.
