Professional service + great car made a magical day
What a special experience! Clive is such a lovely person to work with, nothing was too much trouble. He delivered a fantastic service even going the extra mile to get bollards lowered to access pedestrian streets for us! Clive was very punctual, professional and smart. The car was an absolute dream! Immaculate throughout and looked lovely with the ribbons, flowers and picnic basket. The chilled champagne in crystal glasses said everything about the attention to detail provided by Clive and I would highly recommend him!!

Our perfect wedding car
We are so pleased that we chose Leicester Wedding Cars for our wedding. We fell in love with the VW Beetle as soon as we saw it and it was decorated so beautifully on our wedding day. Our driver couldn't have been friendlier. He was punctual, very professional and took great care of us en route to our reception venue. The journey itself was beautiful and we were also able to have some photos with the car. We cannot thank him enough! We would highly recommend Leicester Wedding Cars.

I'm not a car person and when planning the wedding I really couldn't get excited about having a fancy car for the big day. I eventually landed on Leicester Wedding Cars' Beetle and thought the car looked really sweet. Clive was really helpful and clear about the arrangements, which gave me great confidence. On the wedding day, Rodger, our driver, had checked out the route and knew exactly where to go, which scenic route to take and just the right moment to put the top down to protect my fine coiffured hair! He was friendly and professional throughout the journey and put both myself and my Dad at ease. I didn't need to worry about anything. And the car was such a hit with our guests! I couldn't have chosen a better company or car for our day.
