Who we are
We are a small family run business near Bath offering unique wedding car hire.
We began by sharing our lovely Volkswagen Beetle, Hettie to bring joy, fun and smiles to your big day!
We've now added two more VWs to our fleet - Ruby a red 1971 Beetle alnd Lily our 1974 Bay Panel Campervan, as well as adding a silver Jaguar S-Type for a modern option.
Volkswagens run through our blood , we've had 19 between us (that number keeps going up) and it's also how we met! So it's safe to say we know our way around them and realise how much joy they can bring! Sharing that joy with others was just a natural progression.
We decided right from the start that we wanted to offer thoughtful wedding car hire, More than just a ride to your ceremony, we wanted to go an extra step and offer all the extra bits we'd appreciate if we were getting married (again)!

So who does what?
Your first contact will probably be me - Maxine, and I handle all the admin side. I LOVE chatting with the couples, hearing all of your plans, which leads onto the other half of my job, the decorations!! I've often got lots of ideas on to go for new garlands, decorations or unique looks! You'll also find me driving at some weddings...
Paul looks after the cars, he's never happer then when he's tinkering under a VW - if there's a problem he'll fix it! He also loves his role as main driver!
In summer 2018 we expanded to include a small team of drivers, to make sure are cars are available to as many couples as possible. Our team enjoy driving our cars as much as we do!!

"Hiring Hettie for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made!!! From our first point of contact with Maxine, she made everything so easy - she is so organised and liaised with our ceremony and reception venues as well as our photographer to make sure that everything would run smoothly on the day, so you don't have to worry about a single thing! Which means so much when you have so much to organise... We had a thoughtfully packed hamper with delicious treats to snack on as we enjoyed the ride. Hettie got so much attention both from the public around our ceremony venue, and our guests! Maxine and Paul are genuinely caring people who helped to make our day so so special. Hire Hettie for your special day, you will NOT regret it!! <3"
