About Us

The Wedding Camper driver

My name is Chris and I have 9 years experience driving and chauffeuring couples on their big day.

I started off working for a popular local wedding car service that saw me driving weddings most weekends and took me all around the North East.

I now have my own van, "Poppy" the Campervan that is available to hire with me as your chauffeur. Poppy is a 1976 Volkswagen Type 2 Bay Window model finished in cream with a light grey interior. She is a fantastic van that is very spacious, easy to get in and out of and would add an element of style to any wedding.

Areas We Cover

We are based in South Shields and offer wedding car hire covering the whole of the North East region including South Tyneside, Newcastle Upon Tyne, North Tyneside, Northumberland, Sunderland and Gateshead.

We do not set limits on the distance we are willing to travel and we are happy to travel further afield if needed. Please get in touch with us today and we can quote you on your specific requirements for your big day!
