Friday 6th August 2010 - Turkey Mill Maidstone - Rolls Royce Silver Cloud 2



Mechgem completed another enjoyable wedding yesterday at Turkey Mill http://www.turkeymill.com/site/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=15&Itemid=50 which is one of our favourite venues, why? Simple the gardens are outstanding, photo opportunities with the car are abundant and most of all it is a venue which still instills such a personal touch. We see many venues but few really stand out. Turkey Mill does.

Coupled with that yesterday, we had a wonderful bride and groom, Jo's outfit came from Heading Up The Aisle http://www.headinguptheaisle.co.uk/ and she couldn't stop smilling.

Until next time

Cooling Castle Barn 28th July - Mechgem's Austin Princess Van Den Plas




Mechgem enjoyed another fantastic wedding at Cooling Castle Barn on Wednesday 28th of July, we provide wedding cars 7 days a week!

The bride Heather was picked up from Swanscombe and had a lovely drive down to Cooling Castle. Cooling is a lovely venue, the staff are so helpful and accommodating and we think our driver is biased as he always gets given a drink of juice which is a rare occurance in the word of wedding chauffeuring. This venue goes the extra mile which is why we like to work there! See the link below for the venue link http://www.coolingcastlebarn.com/

The ceremony looked lovely the gardens adorned with lovely hanging baskets creating a true Kent country wedding feel. After the ceremony Mechgem took the bride and groom off for an intimate drive in the Kent country side. We always recommend this to brides and grooms to have a few minutes alone after the ceremony. This is something that we offer as part of our service. Both the bride and groom were happy with the car which has plenty of room for 7 people plus the driver. The princess was positioned for photographs with the castle turrets in the background and the Princess drove back to our base at Keston near Bromley, another great wedding with one of our fantastic Classic cars.

Ickworth House, Suffolk - 10th July 2010 - MechGem Rolls Royce Open Tourer Going the Extra Mile


This weekend, Mechgem drove to Ickworth House in Suffolk with the wedding car on a trailer because our bride couldn't find one locally and just loved our Rolls Royce Open Tourer.


It is a stunning location belonging to the National Trust, and was the perfect day for an Open topped Wedding Car.


See the National trust website for details of the amazing venue and our car complemented the setting.http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/main/w-vh/w-visits/w-findaplace/w-ickworthhouseparkandgarden/


We were blessed with glorious weather and a beautiful bride, what more could we ask for. The groom Martin is in the RAF and looked very smart in his uniform. They had a guard of honour which looked extremely professional. Our chauffeur doug thoroughly enjoyed himself because the family were so pleasant and happy. We did three runs to the church, with the bridesmaids first before returning to collect the bride and her father we were able to do this as the church was a short distance from their home.


Although it was a long day starting for us at 5am and ending at 9pm when we returned to base with the car on the trailer. We were happy knowing that we had been able to provide the car and service that the bride asked for and there isn't a better feeling than that!


A great service again by Mechgem for details of our Wedding cars see our website http://www.mechgem.co.uk/
