Movie MOTORS Wedding transport ideas inspired by our silver and small screen favourites Scan to view video Classic Wedding Cars Cheshire Keyhole Motors Video courtesy of Keyhole Motors Patrick Schneider on Unsplash Ries Bosch on Unsplash BOND, JAMES BOND Behind the scenes Whether you’re a fan of the classic Sean Connery and Roger Moore movies, or Daniel Craig holds your heart, James Bond’s world offers an ultra-glam backdrop for your big day. Think chic black tie for the groom and his party, and sleek cocktail dresses for your bridesmaids. Meanwhile, you could go full Bond girl and slip into something slinky. Look for something fitted, with a sexy leg split. Why not have a cocktail hour with Martinis (shaken not stirred) top of the list? To keep guests entertained during the lull before or after dinner, hire a casino company as a nod to Casino Royale. Your guests will love trying their hands at a spot of roulette. Arrive in style Bond is synonymous with the Aston Martin, which is a must-have when you opt for this theme. Check out www.keyholemotors.com where you can hire this modern beauty, the DB9. Alternatively, Jaguar has quite a history with Mr Bond. The MK2 is a sophisticated 60s offering, just the vibe you need. It’s also an icon of the small screen thanks to Morse. Check out https:// classicweddingcarscheshire.com who offer this oh-so elegant option. BRIDGERTON Behind the scenes If, like us, you’ve been completely obsessed with the lives of the Bridgertons, Featheringtons et al over the past couple of years they may well inspire your wedding theme. Regency-core is the way to go here and is oh-so on trend. You’ll be looking for a Georgian-period venue ideally, and Wedgewood blue is the palette dreams are made of. Music is key here, so a string quartet is the must-have. You’ll find most are adept at performing classical versions of modern hits, and have been doing so way before Bridgerton’s producers ever thought of it. Arrive in style Motor transport wasn’t even invented until the late 1800s, so there’ll be no cars for this theme. The Georgians travelled by horse and carriage, so this is the way to go to ensure you arrive in true Bridgerton style. 54
