Absolutely wonderful!

We hired the 1961 BMW 502 V8 for an "A to B" trip for our London wedding, May 26th '23 - to go from Old Marylebone Town Hall to The Depot in Islington. Service was outstanding from the start, with quick replies from Niall who was answering all of our questions. Our driver, Darren, was so lovely - as was the car! It was a perfect touch for us to travel in through London, and it looks beautiful in our wedding photos. Thank you so much!

A must if you can for your day

The team who provided the car gave us such a wonderful day and gave us an opportune moment to enjoy time in the car, while driving around between locations, and were completely accommodating in providing stuff and photos at different locations along the way
such class and style such great service. Highly recommend. If you’re able to add it into your day, you will not regret it we went for the BMW V8 from 1950s stunning machine

Last minute request!

Niall was extremely quick and efficient to accommodate my request for a classic car for my sister’s wedding. I wanted to surprise her and she couldn’t be happier.
A huge thanks to Tim for driving the bride and groom on this special day (even though it was his wife’s birthday). He was extremely kind.
Highly recommended!!

Stunning Cars and Wonderful Drivers

Garden of England Classics have an absolutely stunning selection of wedding cars to choose from and these were extremely unique and distinct from the typical white wedding car. We spent a long time looking for something different but which suited our special day and definitely found it with Garden of England Classics. Response times from Niall were also very quick, often arriving within minutes!

Our driver on the day was Iain who drove his beautiful Bristol 401. He was extremely punctual, arriving 30 minutes early despite traffic delays in London on the day. His driving was fantastic and he was so friendly, getting on very well with all of our wedding guests who he drove in the car.

Great wedding car

Easy communication with Niall. Beautiful classic BMW for our wedding and the driver turned up an hour before the scheduled time to make sure everything would go smoothly. I can recommend using their services.
