Vintage Wedding Cars from Arrow Vintage Cars, Essex.
.......The More Interesting Vintage and Classic Wedding Car Company

Our privately-owned collection of 18 vintage and classic cars has been built up over many years and consists of some extremely rare vehicles all of which are available for wedding hire.
 
We both come from families with an engineering and artisan background and have, since childhood, been in and around vintage and classic transport.
 
Breaking the mould, we took up careers in banking, in 1988 however, the opportunity arose to operate our vintage collection for film, T.V. and wedding hire on a full-time basis rather than part-time, which we had been doing since 1968. (When most of our current competitors were still at Junior School!).
 
In the main, the vintage and classic wedding cars in our fleet are vehicles from manufacturers sadly no longer in existence. In their time the cars were prestigious makes for the wealthy and well-to-do and as production figures were lower, few now survive. In a couple of cases we are caring for the only known survivors of a particular make or model, whilst others carry with them intriguing histories.
 
Amongst others in our wedding fleet we are very fortunate in owning a 1930 Pierce-Arrow used by U.S. President Hoover, a 1954 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith built for an Italian Duke, a 1939 Rolls-Royce Limousine owned by Lady Isabella Wills - Heiress to the Wills Tobacco empire, a 1929 Pierce-Arrow walled up and forgotten for thirty years, the only known surviving English-bodied 1928 Buick convertible Phaeton and a 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood owned by an American industry magnate.
 
In addition to the main bridal cars we can offer a wide choice of Bridesmaids' transport in the form of Vanden-Plas Princess Limousines, Daimler Limousines, a very rare Humber Limousine and a 1954 Jaguar MK V11.
 
None of our vintage and classic cars are kit car replicas.
 
Due to the rarity of our vehicles, interiors of the cars have been fully restored to the original specification rather than "customising" in modern materials to maintain the integrity of these historic vintage and classic cars. They are elegant, spacious, comfortable, airy and an ideal contrast to the Bride's dress for those interior photographs.
 
It is a privilege to be asked to supply the wedding transport for a bride's special day and, as we have undertaken weddings since the 1960's, are always happy to pass on the benefit of our experience and offer any advice you may require. We are pleased to say that most of our work comes from client recommendation.
 
It is worth bearing in mind that if your wedding day is on a peak summer date - and that can now include Fridays and Sundays - you will need to book essential items such as your chosen Church/Wedding Venue, Reception, Photographer/Videographer and Transport at least a year ahead to avoid disappointment. It is also worth making enquiries with your wedding dress suppliers, Groom's attire suppliers, florist etc as to when you should place orders and plan your bookings and finances accordingly.
 
We set a high standard, Chauffeurs are smartly attired in grey suits and caps and offer a friendly, professional service. Umbrellas and mobile 'phones are carried in each vehicle. It has always been our policy that each car undertakes one wedding only per day, therefore you will not be pressured.
 
You are most welcome to visit and view our fleet of vintage and classic wedding cars at any time, just telephone (01268 552562) or  e-mail beforehand to make an appointment.
 
Our classic and vintage cars are kept in capacious, flood-lit garages on the premises. Viewing in the evening or after work is not a problem, we are open from 9.00am until 11.00pm seven days a week.
