Wedding Hire

Post by lkd12 »

Hi Everyone,

I am getting married on 4th June 2016 which is a Saturday, we have been lokking high and low to find a Morris Minor which can cover the area of our wedding but so far we have been unsuccessful :( I think this may be my last resort so hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

We are getting married at a Church in Ulley, Rotherham just off junction 31 of the M1

We would liek to be taken to the church ( 5 min drive) and then taken to our reception venue afterwards which is Swancar Farm in Trowell, Nottinghamshire, 10 mins off Junction 26 on the M1.

Does anyone know a company or self hirer that would cover these 2 areas?! SO far i have only found people who travel to either one but not the other.

We would preferably like a white / cream one to match the wedding

Thanks a lot,

Laura (stressed out bride!)

Hello Laura
It makes a lot of sense to narrow this down a bit.

There are variants of minors and you would need to be specific in your request.

2 door or 4 door saloon
Convertible
Traveller ( the one with the wood frame)

You can also hire them, an option is to hire and have it delivered, returned on a flat bed if the hirer allows this of course.

Good luck

Al

Well a Google search finds this company that covers South Derby.

Unfortunately your evening do is the wrong direction of the M1 for me to help (I'm in North Sheffield) and insurers can be funny about weddings, it would have to be voluntary and with no mention of a wedding if you had an accident.
