12 of the Best Wedding Car Hire Companies in the UK (2026 Guide)
The wedding car is a two-hour booking that ends up in every photograph — so the companies couples rate most highly are the ones that turn up polished, early and calm. These twelve are published WedHQ listings ranked by independent review count, from Bedfordshire's most-reviewed service to classic campers on the Kent coast.

View profileWhat wedding cars cost
Wedding car from-prices on this list run from £195 to £450, and the gap usually reflects hours rather than prestige.
- Under £250 typically covers one journey each way — Gold (£195), Classic Camper (£250) and Bedford Executive (£199) start here
- £300–£400 is the standard: car and chauffeur for the morning, photographs included
- £450+ adds waiting time, extra journeys or rarer vehicles
Ask every company what the price covers in hours and journeys, whether ribbons are included, what happens if the car fails, and whether the chauffeur stays for photographs. Cars book by date, so the most-reviewed names go three to six months ahead.

| Decoration | Ribbons included, matched to your colours | An extra charge mentioned later |
