Car hire-Hertfordshire

Freckles1977, 1 June, 2011 at 21:26 Posted on Planning 0 9

Hi all. Just wondering of anyone can recommend a company to hire a car for our wedding day. Would prefer something modern-really like the Rolls Royce Phantom but the place I contacted wants £650 for 3 hours for one! Is this expensive? Did think about walking to the church (5 mins away) or using a family members car for the church and just having the car to take us one way-from church to reception venue which is about a 20 min drive away but even then the company will only knock £100 off.

Any suggestions greatfully received!!!

    Thanks Sara-Jane for the suggestion...had a look at their website but it seems like they only do vintage Rolls Royces...really don't like older cars-would much prefer something modern!

    Anyone else have any reccommedations please?

    Hi Jen_Jen,

    Thanks for the recommendation-think they look very cool but know my other half wouldn't be impressed-he hates Beetle and Mini's!

    Much better price though.

    I'd love to know if you find somewhere. I think my partner would love us to have a Phantom.

    I know that you are after a modern car - so we are probably not what you are after but as a price guideline, offer a trip from home to church and then on to reception for £295. £1.50 per mile outside of 40 miles from Croydon. As little as £240 for a single trip...

    (Listening to what the others are offering, perhaps I should be putting my prices up! Ha ha!)

    It is worth checking out Lord cars. They have over 40 cars ranging from very old to new. Based in Welham Green.
