Hannah & Russell Bevan with Mark II.                          Michelle McLaughlin chauffeurHi Clare, I just wanted to drop you a note to say thank you to you, Michelle, Mark and the rest of the team for making our wedding day so special. You may recall it was a very snowy Saturday and our original car, Milo, wasn't allowed out due to the bad weather so we used Mark instead. Initially I was a little disappointed by this news, but as soon as I saw Mark I knew I needn't have worried as he was the perfect car! My dad and myself really enjoyed the drive to the Church in Mark, despite the snow and the nerves!! The drive to the reception as husband and wife was truly memorable, and just wouldn't have been the same in any other car than a VW.  Michelle was a fabulous chauffeur, very polite, friendly, and professional. She must have been freezing but didn't complain once!  I've attached a few pictures from the day. Unfortunately, I didn't get as many of Mark as I'd hoped as it was FREEZING!! The ones I do have are fab though.  Thank you again. Kind regards, Hannah Bevan  Hannah & Russell 19th Dec 2010.


Helen & Pete Godden NottinghamDear Clare
 
Thank you so much for lending us Herbie on our wedding day, 7th August. He looked absolutely fantastic, and we had such a fun day in him - from the drive to the church, to the photos out of the roof after the ceremony, to having a little drive ourselves. It added so much to, an already fantastic day.

We also wanted to thank you for sending us the most wonderful driver, Chris. He was attentive, polite, professional, but also friendly, reassuring and a true gentleman. Please could you pass on our thanks to him, as he contributed so much to the day. You've got a gem working for you there.
 
He also spoke very highly of you and your company, and we can only agree with what he said. From the moment we saw Herbie on the website, to when we waved goodbye to him at Eastwood Hall, the experience has been fun and 100% stress free.
 
Finally, thank you very much for recommending Sam Kirby, the photographer. We suggest you recommend him to many other people! We have seen our photos today and they are absolutely out of this world.
 
So, two very happy customers! Best of luck with your business.
 
Helen and Pete Gooden x  Chris Tricket 7th August 2009 Herbie


Newark wedding John Gillian RobsonDear all at Beetledrive
 
Thank you so much for the part you and Casper played in our special day. The van was in perfect condition and looked absolutely amazing in all the photos and was a real talking point in the day. Even Gillian's parents who were initially uncertain about a bus as a wedding vehicle, were completely in awe of Casper when they saw it. I now feel quite sure that no other vehicle could have made the day as special as Casper did and the overall service you provided (including champagne and ABBA) was second to none.
 
Huge thanks again - would recommend you to anyone!

Jools clearly having a good dayHi to all at Beetledrive.  Demis and Polly had a big part to play in making our wedding an absolutely fantastic day. They are still the topic of conversation amongst family and friends and your website has been passed on to future bride and grooms.We have attached some of our favourite photo's so far. Thanks Geraint and Jools Jones. Drivers Michelle Orton & Kristy Dable

Dear Clare and everyone at Beetledrive,  Thankyou so much for everything on our wedding day back in october. It was such a happy day and looking back now the cars really were the icing on the cake. You all made us feel comfortable throughout- from the booking to when the cars arrived at Wroxall Abbey. We've never had so much attention as when we drove along with everyone looking! Thanks for some fantastic memories from Pete & Una (6th Oct 07 Drivers Clare Brookes, Michelle Orton and Michelle M)

Dear Beetledrive, Just to say a really big thank you for your services on the day. Mark looked beautifull & was a fab addition to our VW family. We had a fantastic day & can't thank you enough for helping it all go smoothly. Anna & Jon 17th Nov 07 (Driver Michelle Orton)

To All at Beetledrive, Just like to say a big thank you for letting Big Ron be a part of our wedding day. He certainly turned a few heads and impressed all our guests. My husband had no idea what car I'd organised so it was a suprise for him when we came out of the church- he definitely had a big smile when he saw Big Ron waiting for us.   A big thank you to Michelle for looking after us on the day and for cleaning Harry's face while we were in chapel (yes I finally named him) Sorry we didn't get to say goodbye -the photographer kept us really busy! Our wedding day was so special and having Big Ron there made it all the more special. Best Wishes Nicola & Gareth Everton (13th Oct 07. Driver Michelle Orton Harry is Nicola's New Beetle!)

Gavin & BeckiHi we would like to say a big thank you for your brilliant contribution to making Beccy and Gavin's day such a memorable one. The cars were perfect in every respect and exceeded everyone's expectations. They were much admired by many of the guests and looked impeccable. Your calm, efficient and unruffled approach to looking after us when those final minutes ticked rapidly away was brilliant. I am glad you two knew how to do buttonholes! As I think the attached pictures show you played an integral part in the day, I feel that you may well have found some other customers amongst the guests, judging by the favourable comments I heard. We would wholeheartedly recommend your company to anyone looking for something special for any occasion.Thank you very much, John and Judith Restall.  (22 Sept 2007, Drivers Clare & Michelle M. )

Dear Clare, just a note to say thank you for your help on our wedding day. Herbie made our day so special and memorable and guests are still commenting on how different it was. We would highly recommend you to anyone and shall be spreading the word to our friends! Thanks again Claire & Julian 19th Oct 07 (Driver Clare) great Thank you card both we loved it!


Hello ,

We just wanted to say thank you for making our day extra special with Lola and Mark. The drivers were fantastic and the cars looked amazing I have attached a photo for you and will send a couple more when we get our official photos back.

Thanks again

Jodie and Paul Colls  (Drivers Nicky & Eddie)

Hi Clare, 

I am just writing to say thank you so much for all of your help making our day so special. 

I have attached some photos, probably more than you actually want to see!! I am sure you will get a lot more business from my neck of the woods now as the car was definatley a talking point.  When we left The Castle to go to the reception we had to drive through town and were escorted by a white builders transit behind us ( we didn't know the people in it) beeping the wedding march on the horn all the way through town, and when they pulled off the next car behind would take over:-)  I am sure that would not of happened in a normal run of the mill wedding car:-) Well as I said thank you so much and I hope you enjoy the photos 

Take care Bec Arlett (nee Rue) (in Heidi with Eddie driving.)


Hi Clare
 
Just wanted to send you a quick email to say thank you for your help in booking Jimmy for my daughter Michelle's wedding on Saturday - everyone loved the car and Michelle said it was such fun driving to the church in Jimmy - people were waving and other car drivers tooted their horns - we were lucky with the weather so they were able to have the roof down.  Michelle always wanted a car like that for her wedding so it really was a dream come true for her.
 
What a lovely job you have - making dreams come true!
 
Thanks again

Hi Clare & Michelle, 

Now that I have got my head together again after a hectic weekend I just wanted to say an enormous ‘THANK YOU’.  The cars were amazing, the drivers were fantastic and we both really enjoyed our time with them.

Our drivers, Nicky I think was one of them I didn’t get the other drivers name, but he was more than a chauffeur that day, firstly he managed to put up with our girls (who can be a handful at times), and secondly he saved the day when the chief bridesmaid managed to get her shoe stuck in the drain grid on our driveway just minutes before they were due to leave.  I so wish I’d managed to get some pictures as it was definitely the funniest part of the day.

I also wanted to say how much we both appreciate all the efforts you both went to to get Wilma ready for the day; it must have been a stressful time for you.  But thankfully you did and she was beautiful and exactly what we wanted for our wedding car.  

So thanks again to you both we had a great day. 

From Kim & Pete x x x .....1st September 2007 (we had some mechanical issues with Wilma in the week but managed to get her working correctly for the day, phew!) Other driver Mr Steve Arnold with Nicky Green.

Chris & AnnaClaire, Michelle, 

Thank you so much for making my sisters wedding such a special one this weekend.(Anna Rubery to Chris Cooney) Quote: Your cars, presentation and service are absolutely superb, I was stopped by one of the neighbours the next day to tell me how wonderful everything looked, the photographer commented on how helpfull the drivers of the cars were in helping to get the photographs, and how they went out of their way to accomodate his needs, and the venue owners said how it was a pleasure to meet and work with such nice people, the VW's really made the day. Jonathan - Usher and brother to the bride.  Photos to follow in seperate email... Kind Regards, Jonathan.   25th August 2007.  (Drivers Clare & Lesley)

**********************************************************************

Dear Claire and Michelle,

Just a quick note to say many, many thanks for the wonderful service we received on the 4th Aug.  The car was a real talking point at the wedding and I really felt I arrived in style! 


Thanks again; having 'Angus' as our wedding car was wonderful and something we will remember always!  Once we get the wedding photos of us and the car we'll pop one in the post for you!

Kind Regards

Amy and Mark Bradshaw (Driver and owner of Angus  Michelle M)

Dear Clare, 

Simon & I just wanted to send a quick email to say a very BIG thank you to you all at Beetledrive, special thanks of course to both Shabba and Lizzie,who were both wonderful, talkative and professional, not to mention funny. I will certainly recommend you to anyone that announces that they are to marry.  We thought it amusing the way people in the street stare, honk their horns and shout and wave.  

It was an amazing experience and we can't thankyou enough for the wonderful service we received. I can assure you the photographer will be getting no such email as i'm sure lizzie and Shabba will remember, I nearly shoved my bouquet somewherepainful, irritating little man.. 

All the best for the future. Kind regards Natasha & Simon Woods (also Mr Hobbs My father, couldn't praise you enough, so a thank you from him also.)  Lizzie & Shabber 23rd Sept 2006   Big Ron & Newby

Hi Clare 

Just to say a real thank you for the provision of "Tommy" for Jen and Jonny's wedding on 9 September 2006.  It was a great success and there seem to be proportionately loads more photos of people in the car than the other parts of the day!  Of course the wonderful weather was a big factor too. I had an enjoyable ride with Jen to the church and the happy couple were delighted with the stately tour on the "pretty route" to the Reception.  The champagne provided for drinks after the ceremony was a very nice touch. Gary Stephenson PS - feel free to publish any part of these comments if you wish.  Kristy

Hi Claire,

 Sorry it has taken me so long to write to you but once we got back from honeymoon it was straight back to work   We just wanted to say the biggest thank you possible to you and you company for making our day so increadibly special.  Without you it would have been a good day but yourselves and Edna and Mark just made it the best day of our lives. We cant find the words we want to express how much your special treat to us meant and everyone when they talk about our wedding the first thing they mention is the vehicles (exactly what i wanted.. a little bit of individuality) Please find attached on this and the next email some photos that were taken that were some of the best ones taken. A special thanks to Edna for being the most distinctive backdrop to wedding photos we have ever seen!! We were so happy there were already 2 of our photos on the web site and hope that if you want to you can use these as well Thanks does not seem enough but thanks anyway 

James and Jayne Ingrey 5th May 2006 Clare & Lizzie

Dear Clare  

I am so sorry that it has taken so long to send this to you but we want say thank you a million times for helping us to have such a special wedding back on August 28th.  Mark's presence, along with yours of course, was one of the most enjoyable parts of our day.  Bertie was very pleased to make a new acquaintance and I have attached some photos of him with Mark outside the building at Towcester Racecourse.  Let me know if you would like any more because we have got quite a few of the cars.  Bertie loved his ribbons and his buttonhole now has pride of place in the house.  The champagne that you brought with you was lovely and very welcome when we were having pictures taken. We were really impressed by your professionalism, it made everything so much easier especially when there was bit of confusion over the drive for the entourage from the hotel to the venue.  I loved having a little drive of Mark around the car park although with hindsight I should have taken my heels off and really opened him up.  I am already planning the next occasion where we can hire Mark but justifying at the moment is a bit difficult, I am working on it though. I don't feel that I have adequately expressed our gratitude for all that you did but hopefully the photos will show what an important part you played.   

Thank you so much Clare, we really are truly grateful. Good luck with everything for the future, love Abi, Martin and Bertie x     Clare

Dear Clare, I just wanted to say a big thank you for all that you did on our wedding day on 13th April 2006 at Lympne castle.  We had a fantastic day and both you and Mark were a big part of that, nothing that was asked of you was to big a job. And you engaged in VW conversation with our family and friends keeping them entertained for us. We have not had the official photos back yet but have had lots set to us by friends.  In fact one of our favourites is us with our heads popping out of the sun roof. We have now got our VW camper up and running, after being rescued by the AA the day after the wedding. Thank you again Mr and Mrs Axtell Graham and Beth  - Clare

Hi Clare, We just wanted to email you to say thank you to you all at Beetle Drive for our fab wedding cars.  You were so well organised & we felt completely confident that our booking was in safe hands. A special thank you to the drivers on the day who ensured that we all remained dry. I shall definitely be recommending you to our friends. Thank you again. Kindest regards, Kelly & Tom    Chauffeurs - Nicky & Sim

Hi Clare, Just a quick email to thank you so much for all your assistance in the planning of our wedding.  We were thoroughly delighted with the car and Tom was exceptionally kind, considerate and helpful.  So many people remarked what an excellent choice of wedding car it was. Our photographer has published the pictures on his website www.aaronlord.com - go to photoshop and then it is the Kearins/Grimsey wedding) and there are a number with the car included, so you may want to have a look. Thanks again Olive & Andy    Chauffeur - Tom in Polly


Dear Michelle & Clare - I just wanted send you a quick email to say thanks very much for Saturday. Scott and Emma throughly enjoyed the day and it was made just that little bit extra special by your car and the service you gave us. We have seen the photos on the web site and can't believe how quickly you put them on! I know all of us that were lucky enough to ride in Big Ron were very impressed and would have no hesitation recommending your company to our friends. I know that quite a few people asked about your company on the day too- so you never know you may well get some more business from the day. So once again - thanks a bunch - Simon Best Man for Scott and Emma Mason   Chauffeurs Clare & Michelle

Dear Clare - It's been far too long since the time we OUGHT to have thanked you for your services on the day of our wedding, but we still wanted you to know that you helped make the day extremely memorable, and not just for us. People still comment on what a great car it was and how well it fitted our day. My favourite memory of the Beetle was when it did a couple of loops of the mini roundabout outside Crick while we got our bearings. Must have looked like a Herbie movie from outside. Anyway we loved it. Thank you for all you did on the day, we'll never forget it! All the best and good luck with the business. José & Fiona Clare & Lesley

Graham - Just to say thank you so much for being a great driver on Saturday. We absolutely loved the VW & the inadequacy of the Rolls Royce made the day even better! Thanks again - Rachel & Nick 18th Dec 04 Hever Castle. In Mark
