VW wedding Bicester

Does a date matter?

by

So earlier this week I had a bride in tears on the phone as all of our VWs are already booked out on her wedding day next July…….as a flippant comment at the end of the conversation I suggested to her “you could always change your wedding date”…….and today I receive a call from her asking availability of Daphne on some alternative dates for July 2015 as they are liaising with the venue to change their date……

So would you be tempted to ever change your wedding date?  We’ve had brides who have changed dates to suit there venues, we’ve now had several change date to get the VW of their dream, one bride changed her date to ensure her Bride of Honour wouldn’t be “too pregnant” on her wedding day!

If you’ve planed your wedding date is this weekend (which 9 couples who have booked with Pear Tree Weddings have decided) then you are in quite good company – Spice Girl Mel B, Mel Gibson, Bjorn Borg, Bruce Springstein and Jennifer Lopez also decided the first week in June was a great time to get married!

I married Mr Pear Tree 12years ago now….and we were married on 18th May, my birthday…..so no for me, I wouldn’t change the date, I would have compromised …..but back then I didn’t know about VW weddings, perhaps that would have persuaded me to change my date!!

The Split Screen Bakery!

So with the sun shining thoughts turn to afternoon garden parties, and to make the perfect afternoon ‘tea’ why not include a VW campervan?

We recently heard about The Split Screen Bakery – a stunning and iconic VW that has been converted to serve drinks and cakes….could you think of anything more perfect for a wedding reception?  Ok, so we have images of vintage afternoon tea on the lawn, but if it’s raining the VW can often fit inside your venue.  With choices of teas & cakes to suit your wedding day wishes, we thought we’d catch up with owner Ash & ask him a bit more about his fabulous idea:
