This week I wanted to introduce Kelly, an awesome supplier we work with regularly and additionally some of the photos from a wedding we did together recently!

Kelly from The White Van Wedding Company is based in Welling, Kent and has a stunning pearl white 1965 camper van which she has owned for 20 years. We have many things in common including our love for old VW’s amongst other things – so in many ways she is very much my “twinnie”! Some have even said we could be sisters!

Truthfully, Kelly has been and continues to be hugely supportive of Bus and Bug, always giving helpful advice and of course getting me hooked on making flower garlands!

Honestly, I don’t believe I would have the business I have today without Kelly’s input (as well as a few others which I will do a separate blog post about!) so this shout out is well and truly deserved!

Anyway, I won’t ramble on! Here’s a few pictures of a wedding we did last month at Moutains Country House in Kent.

If you’d like to book two splitscreen camper vans – get in touch. Kelly and I love to work together and our vans make the perfect addition to any wedding!

Well it’s been a minute since I last wrote anything on the blog so here’s a a little update on all things Bus and Bug!

Wedding fair season is now in full swing and Weddings have commenced! We did our first wedding in Peggy on behalf of our lovely friend Steve at Vintage Camper Weddings before we became her proud owners. The wedding took place at Edes House in Chichester followed by a reception at https://www.billysonthebeach.co.uk/ at Bracklesham Bay. Edes House is a fantastic venue with some fantastic gardens for photos. The weather was less than ideal however, gale force winds and heavy rain made for extremely difficult driving conditions. I’m eternally grateful for my blanket as it was bloomin’ freezing!!!

Last weekend saw us attend the wedding fair at The Manor Barn in Bexhill. The adorable little venue is nestled amongst pretty gardens in Bexhill Old Town which is simply quaint! If you’re looking for a smallish venue in East Sussex with great accessibility and a lovely rustic feel then this venue could be just what you’re looking for!

Today we found ourselves at Brighton College for The Wonderous Wedding Fair. Such a cool eclectic mix of suppliers and amazing to see so many creative minds in one place. We loved it!

So what’s next?

We’re off to the Volksworld Show at Sandown Park in Surrey for a well deserved weekend away. Lets hope the wind dies down as it’s pretty ghastly out there as we speak!!!

Adios!

Well hello there everyone

A bit late in the day, but I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and New Year. I for one, like probably every other person in Britain is wondering where the hell January just went?? I’m pretty sure I blinked once, went to work and you know before you know it, we’re almost into February!

Now I’m sure you’re all DYING to know what’s happening in the world of Bus and Bug… so here goes!

January saw us take the lovely “Pearl” a 1969 bay window camper van under our wing. She will be available for wedding hire in Hampshire, Wiltshire and Dorset. You can find more information on Pearl by clicking on the button below.

After becoming a family of three quite unexpectedly this month, it was HUGE surprise to us to end up becoming a family of FOUR! Last summer, Tickle and I did a joint wedding with Peggy, a beautifully restored 1959 11 window splitscreen camper van and I have to be honest, I pretty much said there and then how much I loved her and if her owner ever wanted to sell, well to let me know! Fast forward 4 months and a message out of the blue, Peggy is the latest addition to our Bus and Bug Family. It hasn’t quite sunk in yet, but I’m a huge believer in fate and truly believe it was meant to be, so here we are! Peggy already has a dozen weddings in the diary for this year but still plenty of space available (March onwards) so do get in touch if you’d like her as your wedding car!

We have a couple of wedding shows coming up, which I’ll keep you all up to date with, but for now, that’s about it!

It’s Christmas time!!!!

This is literally my favourite time of year, putting the tree up, watching christmas movies and snuggling up on the sofa with a glass of red. What could be better!?

The weekend saw us do our last wedding of 2018 and despite the miserable weather it was just lovely. Our camper van Rupert transported the beautiful bride and her family from Burgess Hill to to the stunning South Lodge, just a stone’s throw away from our base in Cowfold. South Lodge is a tryly stunning venue, with beautiful grounds ideal for a summer or winter wedding. The front of the hotel looked radiant with the warm light pouring through the windows and a sparkling garland adorning the wooden double doors, the ideal backdrop for magical wedding photos.

Who else is getting married at South Lodge?

We have one last event this weekend before Tickle and Rupert go into hibernation for winter. Both have a little maintenance planned to ensure they are both looking and running their best before next wedding season.

That’s about it for our little roundup, catch you all again soon!
