I’ll admit it. Everything I know about cars I could probably write onto a postage stamp. It would probably say “I like silver ones”.
.
When it came to choosing my own wedding car, I allowed my Dad (who I think thought he would get to actually drive it!) to take an excited lead. He went for a classic. Yep, I couldn’t tell you a classic what, but it was lovely.
.
In fact, the moments spent in my classic wedding car were some of the best of the entire day – a sentimental moment with my Dad (he wasn’t driving) before arriving at the church and then a quiet “Oh my god we’ve done it!” moment with the hubby afterwards.
.
Today I chat to Brides Up North Featured Supplier Liz from Webbs Special Occasion Cars, based in the North East of England, all about their fabulous wedding cars and their top notch service. Now here is a lady who does know something about classic cars, and knows all about getting you and your bridal party to the church on time!
.
And what do I know? Well, they have a very pretty ivory one…!

How and when did Webbs Special Occasion Cars begin?
.
After 15 years in the transportation industry, Richard came to me with the makings of a dream he had always had to branch out into wedding cars. We put our heads together and in December 2009 purchased our first wedding car – the Chrysler 300c.
.
Our first wedding fair at the Metro Radio Arena at the end of January 2010 took us completely by surprise with the huge level of interest we generated. So much so, before the end of April 2010 we had already secured a second wedding car – our Grey Rolls Royce Silver Shadow.
.
.
Which cars are available to hire?
.
We have four vehicles available for you to hire – our Chrysler 300c: stylish and contemporary, the Grey Rolls Royce Silver Shadow or Ivory Rolls Royce Silver Shadow II: the classic way to arrive on your wedding day, and finally, a great option for bridesmaids, the Hyundai i800: with 7 passenger seats, this is the perfect way to transport your wedding party.

What is included in your wedding package?
.
We offer a completely bespoke service, but every bride and groom can expect a low deposit, flexible payment schedule, very regular contact, trial run, a silk flower display for parcel shelf, choice of ribbons, and their own chauffeur.
.
We offer a trial run to assist in route planning, timings and to make sure there are no planned road works or diversions. It also means we aren’t leaving it to chance that we can find each address on the actual day.
.
We tailor the package to suit the needs of the day – transportation of the bride, groom and groomsmen, bridesmaids, mother of the bride, father of the bride, or whoever else is included in the bridal party and need to get from A to B in style. Following the service, we then continue on to the venue. If you would like a photo stop or to drive by a particular place en route we can accommodate that too – just ask!
.
.
Can you give Brides Up North an idea on price?
.
We offer a very competitive bespoke package tailored to the individual needs of each couple, taking into account your required mileage. Please ask for us for a flexible quote. We are individual in that once you book with us we will fix price regardless of our increasing costs, unless you make changes to the package yourself. Even then, any additional mileage will be based on our original calculations at the point of booking.

What sets you apart from other bridal transport companies?
.
Definitely the fixed price upon booking and the confidence boosting trial run that we offer.
.
We are a small family run business that takes pride in making the small part we play in our couples’ day the very best it can be. We offer a professional service with a friendly approach and we are committed to maintaining high standards without compromising on individuality.
.
We were recently proud to win a Tynedale Business Award in the ‘Specialist Business’ category based on our customer service achievements. This was voted for by members of the public who are really pleased with the service that we offer.
.
.
If you could drive for any celebrity client, who would it be and why?
,
Kate Moss – when Kate got married she had a fleet of classic Rolls Royce Silver Shadow’s and we have loved her to have used ours for her wedding.
