"Just wanted to say an enormous thank you for providing us with the most talked about wedding transport anyone had seen!! We absolutely loved travelling in Basil, it was a massive highlight of our day. Going to the Medieval Hall in Salisbury with my Dad and three bridesmaids was one of the most memorable and happiest journeys of my life! Then coming back to our reception in Basil as husband and wife was an absolute joy! We felt like celebrities, it was fantastic!! Thank you so much for playing such a big part in our magical wedding day!"

"Thank you for your part in a wonderful day on Saturday. My grandson really enjoyed being in the front of Babe and my daughter and son-in-law also enjoyed their time in your VW. It was a nice touch to have a bottle of champagne for them and I was personally very impressed in how accommodating you both were."

"We wanted to say many thanks for helping making our day so fantastic. The ride to HMS Warrior in Babe was brilliant with all eyes on us as we passed through the dockyard. And the arrival of the bride in Betty the Bug brought cheers from passers by with many wishing us good luck. We couldn’t have wished for a better way to start married life than to leave in Betty for a drive along the seafront with the top down, sipping the welcome champagne that you put on for us."

“Thank you for making our day such an enjoyable day, Betty looked great! Driving around with the top down whilst enjoying the complimentary champagne just added to the whole day. Your care and consideration of us both throughout the day make us feel special, and I have been told that we will back again for anniversaries!!"

“We saw the van on the internet and thought that would be really different, but the reality turned out to be marvelous.  The van has been restored to perfection and the chauffeur was everything a chauffeur should be.  The champagne on the way back was a wonderful touch and we would like to thank you for making the journey there and back very enjoyable. If you are looking for something different to travel in, we would recommend 'Babe the Bus' or any of the other vehicles this firm have.”

“We had a truly magical wedding day and Betty the Bug was a big part of that. Lots of curtains were twitching as I was picked up in style, Betty was decorated beautifully. The service you provided was friendly, fun and professional from beginning to end. Our chauffeur really looked after us, the gorgeous soft white blanket was much appreciated on our winter wedding journey. It was lovely to have some time to ourselves while being driven to our evening reception and the champagne kept us in the party spirit! Thank you so much."

“We can only say that our wedding day was fantastic and the Camper Van (affectionately known as “Babe”) was a brilliant addition to the wedding entourage. The bridal party thoroughly enjoyed their retro ride to the Church and ‘Babe’ looked stunning with her superbly polished exterior and cream ribbons flowing. The pretty flowers on the dashboard ensured she was suitably stylish and fitted in perfectly with the occasion. Of course, the champagne was much appreciated during our “photo shoot” at Stokes Bay!!! ‘Babe’ was a talking point for many of our guests and we can only thank you once again for providing such a fabulous service. We have already recommended Solent Bug & Bus to some “soon to be married” friends!"

"On behalf myself and Tanya, I’d like to express huge thanks for the superb service you provided on our wedding day. Both Tanya and I wanted to travel in style and could think of no better way of doing that than in a classic VW Beetle and the fact that we could arrange to have a VW Camper Van in addition for the rest of the bridal party was a fantastic bonus.

On the day, having the Car and Van pick myself, best man and groomsmen up from Charminster was a real surprise and started the day off in suitably stylish fashion! The flowers and decoration on both the Car and Van added massively to the sense of occasion and we thank you for the time you took to arrange these Tanya and I were both very happy to see that first glass of Champagne as we drove to Parley Manor, a real thirst quencher and party starter!

We wish you all the very best for the future of Solent Bug and Bus and hope that all the weddings you attend are as enhanced as ours was by your presence."

Craig and Tanya

"Just a short note to thank you so much for the use of "Betty" and for making the day go off with a wonderful start. The weather was great and the car journey to and from the Registry Office was  full of memories that Shaun& Vicky will always cherish.

P.S. They loved the Champagne it was a lovely touch.

Denise and Trevor

“I wanted to thank you for the brilliant service you provided for my son and his new wife who were married last Saturday.

Betty the Bug and Babe the Bus were the topic of conversation amongst the male guests, especially those whose passion in life are vintage cars, and I saw lots of pictures being taken of them.  As mother of the groom I was very proud to sit in Babe and be driven from the church to the reception.  It felt good!!!

Once again many thanks to your staff for their support and excellent service you provided."

Joan

"Just thought I'd send you a couple of pictures with Betty the Bug!!

I absolutely loved the journey in the car, especially when the top came down - you were brilliant!"
