We’ve heard of campervanning honeymoons and seen plenty of classic Kombi campers running about, but being delivered to the wedding chapel in a suitably stylish VeeDub van, is something a little out of the ordinary.
Catering to this seemingly growing market is a UK business that not only provides brides and grooms with something a little different to get to the alter, but also something a bit more roomy and fun than traditional wedding transport like a Jaguar MkV saloon.
With no curtains, cooktops or fold-down tables in sight, the converted 1966 VW Kombi available for hire from VW 4 Weddings features an inviting, soft cream and tan leather interior with plenty of room on the bench seats for the bridal party, as well as a flowing wedding dress and bunches of flowers.
Being a rarer, Splitscreen model, the Kombi nicknamed ‘Faith’ has 21 windows in total (including a pop-out Safari windscreen), and a rag-top roof that folds back on sunny days and allows for some terrific, champagne-popping photos.
To create even more attention, ‘Faith’ has been lowered and fitted with American Eagle chrome alloys to match the original chrome deluxe trim.
As self-described classic VW enthusiasts, business owners Andy and Sally Gray also have another, slightly more practical 1960s Splitscreen Kombi in their collection, which they use for camping holidays.
