Nervous ‘Sheddie’

May 15, 2015 by Jo Gosling

With over 430 new entries in to Shed of the Year 2015 competition there are 2520 sheds with a chance of winning the highly prestigious title of Shed of the Year!  And why does Pear Tree Weddings a vintage and classic VW wedding Hire company care about such things?  ….because we run our Wedding VW Head Office from our garden shed….we kid you not!

On a wet August Bank Holiday last year the Pear Tree family turned it’s back on the fleet of wedding campervans and beetle put on old gear, took up a paint brush & paint pot each & began painting…..then over the following few weeks we painstakingly laid flooring, arranged furniture & lovingly populated our shed with all things VW.

So – voting starts on Monday 18th May!  The judges will choose 4 finalists for the categories of Normal, Eco, Garden Office, Cabin & Summerhouse, Workshops & studios, Unique, Pub and two new categories Historical and Budget.  The public will vote for their favourite in each category, with the finalists of each going through to this years’s Amazing Spaces Shed of the Year Channel 4 TV show presented by (the very lovely) George Clarke.

It’s a tense time, we’ve already had our 5minutes of fame having been in numerous National Newspapers & local press when the competition was launched early this year….BUT it’s been soo much fun we don’t want it to end yet….so we have fingers & toes crossed that we can make it through to the finalists for the Office Shed category.

Goodbye from a nervous Sheddie…..you’ll hear from us very soon if we get through….if it goes very quiet you can assume we didn’t make it to the next round!!

DubAid and Pear Tree Weddings!

February 27, 2015 by Jo Gosling

Quite unbelievably one of the biggest annual VW shows of the year, DubAid, has changed to a new venue for 2015 – this year the show will be held at Towcester Racecourse on Friday 20th – Sunday 22nd March. Towcester racecourse is well…..quite literally 4 fields away from Pear Tree Weddings HQ!

DubAid is in its 4th year and has raised £15,000 for charity to date – all proceeds from the show go towards selected charities across the UK.

Pear Tree Weddings are absolutely delighted to be involved with the show, we are one of the main sponsors and aim to have 5 VWs on display on the Saturday and 6 VWs lined up on the Sunday.  We will be there ‘working’ for the whole weekend, not trying to generate weddings – we will be enjoying talking to the VW public about our vintage & classic fleet…..

Time for a makeover Bernie!

February 13, 2015 by Jo Gosling

This week we said good-bye to Bernie as he goes off to Rapid Rodent Racing for his external makeover!

Bernie already looks absolutely stunning thanks to his superior hand crafted interior – thanks to his awesome re-fit by camper shak – so it’s just his exterior that needs sorting.

Having sat Bernie alongside the rest of the fleet over the last few weeks we’ve decided to have him re-sprayed in a more muted vintage blue, so that he tones better with the cream and vintage green vans…..so we have opted for a lighter blue, an original 1950s Mercedes paint colour, he’s going to look simply stunning!

Winter VW wedding jobs!

January 22, 2015 by Jo Gosling

So it’s January and we’re not doing weddings…what are we up to at Pear Tree Weddings? Are we relaxing & chilling out until the new wedding season starts? Gosh no….we’re at work harder than ever – just different sorts of hard work!

We have just under 3 months every year to ensure our wedding hire VWs are in absolutely impeccable condition – we are incredibly proud of our show room standards, but it’s hard work to maintain them!  So, there are some body enhancements for each of the VW campervans and of course for Wilma the wedding Beetle….each vehicle also has a good major service, and (my favourite part) we make interior upgrades.  This year both Daphne and Wilson are having new blinds similar to those in Basil.  Wilson is also having new flooring, similar to that in Morris.  And all the VW camper vans are having some totally fabulous and exciting new buntings and cushions – the designs are simply amazing – can’t wait to share the photos with you!

We are also to-ing and fro-ing with Bruce and Bernie as they receive their total makeovers!

With all this in mind, we have to apologise if we’ve not been in the office as much as normal, although office hours are 9.30am until 2.30pm, Monday to Friday blind making & servcing dont happen in the office, so we’re out & about a fair bit taking VWs for re-sprays, servicing and at home to make 14 blinds……. please be assured though we check email every few hours & pick up messages daily – we’ll get back to you as soon as we can!
