Welcome — we’re the local team at Wedding Car Hire UK who live and work around Wells. If you’re planning your wedding here in Somerset, you already know there’s nowhere quite like the city: the cathedral steps, the green, the lanes that lead to silent courtyards. We’ve spent almost 20 years matching couples to the right cars, and we care about the small things — from the click of a polished door handle to the moment the bride steps out and the crowd holds its breath.
Our fleet in and around Wells offers everything from timeless classics to contemporary, environmentally conscious choices. Each car is chosen for style, comfort and photographic presence — and because we work with verified local suppliers across the UK, we can source the precise model and finish you want.
For couples dreaming of a storybook arrival we offer vintage classics such as Rolls-Royce models (Phantom, Silver Cloud), Bentley saloons, Beauford convertibles and the elegant Austin Princess. These cars bring a quiet grandeur to church and register office ceremonies alike.
If you prefer a sleeker line, our modern luxury options include Mercedes S-Class, Jaguar XJ, Range Rover and Tesla — immaculate, chauffeur-driven and perfect for contemporary weddings at hotels and country estates.
Every car is chauffeur-driven. Our professional, uniformed drivers are chosen for discretion and reliability. They’ll help with the dress, coordinate with your photographer and wedding planner, hold umbrellas when needed and make sure every transfer is on time — the sort of quiet competence that means you don’t need to worry about transport on the big day.
We arrange single-car bridal transfers, multi-car wedding fleets and full transport packages to cover guests, family and the bridal party. Planning a barn wedding on the Mendips with separate pick-ups, or a city-hotel reception in Bath with an elegant exit? We’ll time every mile so photographs, ceremonies and speeches flow without rush.
Car colours make a visual statement. Popular choices include white, ivory, silver and champagne, and we can add matching ribbons, floral garlands and discreet signage to complement your palette. We always respect cultural preferences and will source finishes that suit the tone of your ceremony.
Wells and the surrounding villages have so many photo-ready backdrops. Imagine the bride stepping from a Rolls beneath the shadow of Wells Cathedral, or the party crossing the moat at the Bishop’s Palace for a golden late-afternoon portrait. We regularly serve venues across Somerset and nearby towns — from reception rooms in Shepton Mallet and intimate inns in Axbridge to marquee sites near Glastonbury and large hotels in Street and Midsomer Norton. Drivers know the quiet lanes and the best pull-ins for photos, and they’ll pause at locations that make your album sing.
We pride ourselves on arranging thousands of successful bookings nationwide. Every supplier is verified, and our pricing is transparent — you’ll see what’s included (fuel, chauffeur, mileage, waiting time) and what optional extras you can add. Our team offers personalised support so you book with confidence.
Expect punctual, unfussy service. Chauffeurs will arrive in uniform, help with attire and photos, and liaise discreetly with your photographer and planner. The engine’s soft hum, the gleam of the paint in Somerset sunlight, the small polite gestures — these are the details that make an entrance truly memorable.

We’re not a faceless directory. Working out of Somerset, we know the best routes to avoid wedding-time congestion, where to gather for natural light, and which local suppliers give that extra care. Serving nearby places like Shepton Mallet, Glastonbury, Street, Midsomer Norton and Axbridge means we can offer local recommendations — from a late-morning coffee stop to that railway arch that catches the sun just so for portraits.
Fancy a chat? Tell us your date, likely timings, and a few details about who needs travel on the day. We’ll pull together options from our network, with prices and recommended vehicles. Whether you’re after a vintage Rolls for a dramatic cathedral arrival or a fleet that moves a large family with calm efficiency, we’ll make it easy and personal.
Call or email our Wells team to start planning. We’ll listen first, advise second, and then arrange everything with warmth and the kind of attention that comes from doing this for almost two decades — because your day deserves nothing less.
