Henley Wedding

Our Jaguar MK2 was booked for Emma and Chris' wedding in a sunny and warm Henley this weekend. We picked Emma up from Danesfield House Hotel a short distance form Henley.
After the ceremony at the Town Hall we drove to the river where they had a few reportage style snaps taken amongst the many visitors to the town.
The reception was at Luscombes at the Golden Ball in Lower Assendon, a regular haunt of Mr and Mrs Henley Classic Car Hire.

Stoke Row Wedding

We were fairly local this weekend for Steven & Helen's wedding at Stoke Row Chapel. 
Stoke Row is a pretty village near Henley and home to the Crooked Billet restaurant, well worth visiting. 
We made a couple of runs in the Daimler from the family home nearby to the chapel. On the way to the reception at Springs Hotel in Wallingford the woods at Park Corner gave an excellent photo opportunity as the Bluebells were in full bloom.

Oxford Wedding Featured in US Wedding Blog

Last year's wedding of New Yorker Ashley to Brit Chris is featured on one of the world’s top wedding blogs called Style Me Pretty. On the day our Jaguar MK2 was their car of choice and after picking up at the Randolph the service was at the Oxford Oratory just off St Giles. Following the ceremony and a short drive we stopped at St John's College for photos. The reception was held at the Bodliean Library. A real tour of Oxford's landmarks in one wedding.

Hidden Gem in the Suburbs of Oxford

The Jaguar MK2 was in Kidlington this weekend for Joanne and Ben's wedding. The couple were married at St Mary's Church which is tucked away above the old High Street where it seems time has stood still.

The beautiful old church is in a narrow lane and surrounded by stone built cottages, an oasis in the normally bustling Kidlington.

Another Wedding at Rhodes House Oxford

This weekend we were back at Rhodes House in Oxford for Gavin & Linn's Wedding. Take a close look at the photo and you should be able to tell the famous Oxford landmark we collected the Bridal party from in the Jag and Daimler.

The second photo gives the answer.

First Wedding of 2014

March 1st, first day of Spring and the first day of our 2014 wedding season.
Rachel and James were the first Bride and Groom of the year was and it was Spring like weather for the day. The couple chose our Silver Grey Jaguar MK2 for their Oxford wedding at the Westwood Hotel which is near Boars Hill on the outskirts of Oxford. The reception was also held at the hotel so as per our normal single venue service, the Jaguar waited until after the ceremony so the couple could have some photos with the car before taking the family and guest shots.

Much Confetti at Stuart and Juliana's Wedding

Stuart and Juliana booked our Silver Grey Jaguar MK2 for their wedding in Twyford this weekend. We collected Juliana from the Cantley House Hotel in nearby Wokingham and drove her to St Thomas More Church in Twyford. The couple returned to Cantley House where the reception was held.

In this business we are used to vacuuming the cars on return to base as they collect a lot of confetti at most weddings but Stuart and Juliana's wins the title of the wedding producing most confetti in the car 2013. Not that I am complaining as it keeps yours truly and my Dyson in gainful employment.

Natalie and Pete Renew Their Marriage Vows

We were in the pretty village of Hampstead Norreys, West Berkshire this weekend where Natalie and Pete renewed their marriage vows in the village church. To the casual observer it looked like a regular wedding with the Daimler, a photographer and bell ringers in attendance. We took the Bridesmaids to the church before returning for Pete and Natalie. Afterwards they held a lunch in nearby Yattendon at the Royal Oak.
