Looking for wedding car hire in Canterbury with a little more personality than a traditional wedding car? The White Van Wedding Company provides chauffeur-driven vintage VW campervans for weddings, civil ceremonies and receptions throughout Canterbury and the surrounding areas of Kent.
Our two vintage Volkswagens, Georgie and Jimi, make a relaxed and memorable alternative to a conventional wedding car. We can provide transport to your ceremony, wait while you get married, allow time for photographs and then take you on to your reception.
Our Wedding Cars Available in Canterbury
Choose from our two beautifully presented vintage VW campervans.
Georgie – 1965 VW Split Screen
Georgie is our 1965 split screen Volkswagen campervan and can carry up to five passengers.
Her unmistakable vintage shape makes her a lovely choice for couples who want something distinctive for their wedding arrival, while the spacious interior also makes her practical for bridesmaids and wedding parties.
Georgie is chauffeur-driven and can be decorated with ribbons and flower garlands to complement your wedding colours.
Jimi – 1970 VW Bay Window
Jimi is our 1970 Volkswagen bay window campervan and can carry up to six passengers.
With his classic VW styling and relaxed character, he is perfect for couples who want their wedding transport to feel fun and individual while still looking special enough for the occasion.
Both campervans are prepared specifically for weddings and are driven by an experienced chauffeur.
Chauffeur-Driven Wedding Transport in Canterbury
Your wedding car should be more than simply transport from one address to another.
Depending on the package you choose, we can collect you from home, a hotel or other accommodation, take you to your ceremony, wait while you get married and then transport you to your reception.
We can also build time into the schedule for photographs with the campervan, either at your ceremony venue, reception venue or another suitable location along the route.
Our wedding packages also include complimentary wrapped pick-and-mix sweets for the journey.
Canterbury Register Office Weddings
We can provide wedding transport for ceremonies at Wellington House, Canterbury’s register office on St Stephens Road, as well as churches and licensed wedding venues throughout the area.
Wellington House sits just outside Canterbury’s city walls beside the River Stour and has a riverside garden entrance which Kent’s official ceremony service specifically highlights as a setting for photographs.
A vintage VW can work particularly well for couples having an intimate register office ceremony followed by a reception elsewhere, as we can remain with you for the onward journey after the ceremony.
Wedding Cars for Canterbury Venues
Wedding Cars at Preston Court
We have provided our vintage VW wedding cars at Preston Court near Canterbury, where the relaxed countryside setting is a particularly good match for the character of our classic campervans.
Georgie and Jimi work beautifully as both wedding transport and part of the photographs at the venue, and depending on your chosen package we can allow time for pictures before or after your ceremony.
Canterbury and the surrounding countryside offer everything from city-centre ceremonies and hotels to barns, country houses and rural receptions.
Our VW campervans work especially well with relaxed barn weddings, historic settings and countryside venues, but they are equally suitable for a civil ceremony in the city followed by a reception somewhere further out.
If your ceremony and reception are at different locations, simply send us both addresses when enquiring and we will work out the journey and timings for you.
