RETRO WEDDING WHEELS

Our round-up of the best vintage car hire

Anyone who knows me well enough will tell you how much I love vintage vehicles – I fell in love with them when I used to produce photo shoots in Miami, Florida. If I were ever to remarry, the pastel pink vintage Fiat 55 called Rosie, the latest addition to the fleet from Lil & Blue Vintage Fiat 500 Hire, would be at the top of my list to book! Read all about it, and more retro wheels, below.

LIL & BLUE VINTAGE FIAT 500 HIRE

Rosie is one of four rare Fiat 55 ‘D’ models dating back to 1963 that’s available for self-drive or chauffeur-driven hire and can be decorated with a Just Married sign. She has a luxuriously bespoke ivory interior with contrasting stitching, a stunning grey mohair sunroof and a cute rear wicker picnic basket. Her custom-painted colour makes her one-of-a-kind which will get all of your wedding guests talking!

Sister vintage Fiat 500 cars are the light cream-coloured Lily featuring a sage green and cream interior, the baby blue model called Bluebell and the light cream car named Bella with a red and cream interior. Another new addition to the collection of classic vehicles is Lottie, a 1968 Triumph Herald that was manufactured in the UK but designed by an Italian. Lottie comes with a rear wicker picnic basket, like the Fiat 500sm and makes a fantastic photo prop!

DALE’S DRIVING SERVICES

This classic collection of wedding cars includes a silver-grey 1952 Hillman Minx Mk v one and a 1960 Hillman Minx series 3a that has been restored to showroom condition. Most of the interior in this Hillman Minx saloon car is original and the olive green and white-coloured vehicle has made its television debut!

There’s also an elegant white and blue 1963 Humber Super Snipe with mahogany seat trays in the back along with the original leather interior designed to transport couples to their wedding in style.

A real talking point is the cream 1952 Wrigley Wessex Craftsman caravan that would make a great feature at any wedding plus a lightgreen 1956 Mobylette Moped also available for hire.
