Hello Guys,
So I am getting married next August, being the man one of the only things I have any say in is the cars. As my current car is not “appropriate for a wedding” I thought I would do a shout out on here to see if anyone in the area would be interested in being part of my big day. The reception is at Rookesbury park private school in Wickham which is an old stately home with a fantastic long open private road leading up the building where all the quests will be waiting for us to arrive in style.

Not sure if anyone does this sort of thing anyway, if so please send me details. If however you just have a fantastic car and you’re not to far away, all I’m looking for is someone to drive us to the reception location and stick around just long enough for some pictures. it could be a 45 minute thing or you could stick around for a free meal and drinks if you wanted. Obviously happy to pay for petrol and time ect, please let me know if you may be interested.

Cheers guys!

Ben

Mark.

Rooksbury has been known to host us locals for pics. If I'm around I may be able to help out, remind me nearer the time smile

Epic! thanks for the reply smile I see Petes lambo there, he's kindly taken me for a spin on a couple of occasions as i am friends with a friend of his.

Ok looking at them pictures have given me a crazy pie in the sky idea. If i was to arrange a mini meet on my wedding day with half a dozen or so guys where they could first meet round the corner and drive me, bride, best man and brides maids up the Rookesbury park road, park up get pictures taken then the owners could have a table at the meal for them/and there partners if they wanted? They could stick around for as long as they wanted or just shoot off before the boring speeches smile free meal on the same table as owners and id happily put petrol in the tanks as well. Would probably have to arrange it closer to time but would this be something you guys may be interested in? Would be a dream for me!

Mark.

Sounds like a plan smile

Although, you've already met Pete, so you know how much he eats! yikes

I may well be interested in helping out. I've only got two seats though, so I'd have to drop my other half off, then go and pick someone up to bring to the venue! Sure I could work something though.

I have a BMW Z4M Roadster. Not a supercar, but makes a nice noise and the roof comes off!

I think, out of all the people that have asked for help in the past, this must be the best idea I've seen.

I would be up for the meet and to help out.

I thought this thread was going to be rinsed within an inc of its life but the OP seems like a decent bloke and I am just annoyed I didnt think to do this for my wedding now!! A table at the wedding is very generous as well.

Have you thought about how they might get in and out of the cars, in a dress and the cars being low might be very awkward and they might refuse smile
