Festival Wedding season

by

It’s that time of year….not just peak wedding season, but potentially the time when the sun comes out, we all warm up & our thoughts drift to idyllic festival weddings.

Whether you are planning it to be boho , hippie chic, a ‘Wedfest’ or a ‘Woodland Wonderland’ festival wedding – you are certainly going to be inspirational and unconventional with your plans for your day.  With this in mind rocking up to a field, flagged with bunting you really don’t want to be in a conventional form of transport…..cue the VW vintage Campervan.

Harping back to its heritage of freedom and love, the VW campervan has maintained it’s cool over the last 60years, looking as stylish on the roads today as it did in the 60s.  A VW wedding campervan is an insightful choice for your day, with space, style and retro good looks it offers everything you and your wedding party need…….not only are they spacious, with plenty of room for a large dress, or bridal party – they are the epitome of a festival theme.

We have recently teamed up with Amara & their on-line Wedding Journal for a feature on Festival Weddings……article will be live on 31st May.

 

Here’s Bernie!

by

The 2016 wedding season started again last week, and it always amuses us that so many people think we have the winter months “off”. The winter months are exceptionally busy for us, planning the several hundred weddings we have ahead of us for the next season, as well as completely going through every one of our VWs to ensure they are mechanically perfect and looking exceptional. This winter we had the added excitement and challenge of preparing Bernie – and here he is.

Bernie joined the fleet in winter 2014, and we have spent a year having him completely & utterly restored….complete with coordinating curtains, cushions & keep sake bear (lovingly hand made by Blossom & Badger)

We hope that you agree with us, we think he looks absolutely beautiful!

The very first wedding that Bernie will be attending this year is, well, a secret!  So, we can’t yet say when & where he will be appearing, but we can’t wait to share wedding photos of Bernie with you soon.

What’s on trend for 2016?

by

One of the best things about being in the wedding business at Christmas time is seeing all the new ‘trends’ that “those in the know” think will be popular for the coming year!

Having waded through piles of wedding magazines (it’s a tough job, but someone has to do it!) here’s the round up of top trends for 2016!

INDIVIDUALITY – having followed wedding styles for years, brides & grooms will be pleased to know that offering a fun experience for their guests in their own individual style is the top tip for this year….

METALLICS – whether it’s glitzy golds or shimmering silvers, get them on your wedding tables!

DREAMY ROMANTIC – and to go with those marvellous metallics, to create that romantic intimate environment turn your attention to lighting, it’s going to be very important in 2016!

REMINDERS OF HOME – more and more elements of places and people that hold special memories for the couple, their family and friends will feature at the reception, making your event truly personal and individual….there are some lovely ideas of photo hanging, we love this one!

And much to our relief, it would seem that rustic is till in, those barns, boho chic styling and vintage elements will still feature strongly this season!

Milton Keynes Wedding Show

by

Well, we don’t really attend wedding fayres, we’ve pioneered the way in the VW wedding world by creating viewing days when brides and grooms can come & meet our entire fleet….however, this Autumn we will be attending the Milton Keynes Wedding Show!

The Wedding Show will be held in  Middleton Hall (out the front of John Lewis) in the Milton Keynes Shopping Centre – and will be held over Friday 25th (9.30am – 8pm), Saturday 26th (9am – 6pm) and Sunday 27th September (11am-5pm).  On the Saturday and Sunday there will be catwalk shows at 12noon, 2pm and 4pm.

The event will be a fabulous show case for some of the region’s top wedding suppliers, offering a complete solution to wedding planning – with photographers, cake bakers, florists, stationery designers, bridal gowns, venues, menswear, wedding extra’s (candy carts and chocolate fountains….hmmm, yummo!) and of course wedding car suppliers will be there too!

We will be taking the rather stunning Morris to the fayre – do come along to have a look, ask questions or receive a quote for a VW wedding!
