Oxford Wedding

The Silver Grey Jag was in Oxford this week for Susanna and George's wedding. The couple are currently resident in New York but came home for their wedding at Merton College chapel. Susanna stayed at the nearby Old Bank Hotel in Magpie Lane before leaving for the chapel. We drove the couple up Queens Lane so they could have photos with some Oxford land marks before heading off to the reception which was held at Radley College near Abingdon.

Four Weddings and ...an Evening Run

All three cars were busy this weekend. The Silver Grey MK2 was in Oxford for Tim and Deborah's wedding at Harris Manchester College. Deborah stayed the night before at the Coach and Horses B&B on St Clements, Oxford. We have picked up twice from there this year, the lady who runs it is always charming making sure she has photos of the bride with the car for her Facebook page.

The College Gardens

In Henley the Old English White Daimler had collected bride to be Anna from the Crowne Plaza in Caversham for her wedding to Ross in Henley. The couple held their reception at nearby Shiplake College. The Daimler returned in the evening to take them back to Caversham.

The Morse Jag had two outings, the first for John and Debbie who were married at Wallingford Town Hall and held their reception at Cholsey Pavilion. Lisa and Rich tied the knot in Dorchester Abbey followed by their reception at Lains Barn.

African Safari Honeymoon

Charlotte and Tom were married at the local church to the family home in Midgham, Berkshire this weekend.

Charlotte's father Steve who is a Jaguar fan and drives an XK8, booked our Silver Grey Jaguar MK2 for the occasion. After the ceremony at the village church we drove them back to Steve's house where the reception was held in a large and beautifully decorated marquee in the garden.

The Jaguar returned later in the evening to take the newlyweds to their hotel in Reading where they spent the night before leaving on their honeymoon the next day. Charlotte's parents provided some suitably themed cushions and car rugs for the journey to Reading.

On Sunday afternoon the Jag collected Charlotte and Tom from their hotel and drove them to Heathrow to catch their flight to South Africa. 

In the meantime the Daimler and Morse look-alike Jaguar MK2 provided transport for Mikala and James' wedding in Crowmarsh Gifford. Unfortunately badly timed downpours restricted photo opportunities.

Weddings in Oxford, Marlow and Slough

A busy weekend, Kamella and Stuart booked the Jaguar for their wedding in Marlow followed by our Evening Service to take them from the reception at Le Manoir to their London Home. Shinki and Idrees hired the Daimler to take them to their evening reception at Baylis House in Slough and Mark and Sarah booked the Daimler for their wedding in Oxford.

We picked up Sarah from Malmaison together with a replica Ford "T" Limo from another company to convey the Bridesmaids. We encountered a Hen Party whilst waiting outside the hotel which caused a brief amusing distraction. The ceremony was held at St Andrews in Headington. Headington must have been a charming little village before it was swallowed up by expanding Oxford. It has narrow streets lined with characterful properties and traditional pubs. After the ceremony we drove the newlyweds to the reception which was held at a vineyard near Shillingford.

After Reception Car Service

In addition to our traditional wedding car services we also offer an Evening Service. This service provides a classic Jaguar or Daimler to collect the Bride & Groom from the reception to take them to their Hotel. It is available even if you didn't use one of our cars for the wedding transport earlier in the day. 

At the weekend Tom and Melanie booked this service to take them from their reception in Monks Risborough to their Hotel in Amersham. The cars gleam in the lights of the evening and the interior lights pick out the luxurious red leather giving the cars a really glamorous feel. They are a stylish way to end the evening.

We price this service based on mileage/time taken so let us know your itinerary and we will provide you with a quote. One point that  should be noted is that these cars have relatively small boots which are fine for overnight bags but means they are not suitable for airport runs where you have luggage for a week or two.
