Sophie and Retro VW Hire were absolutely amazing!
We booked them for our wedding on the 13th May and I couldn't recommend them more. If you're looking for a photo booth with some character, I would 100000% recommend Retro VW Hire over and over again. Everyone loved the photo booth, and it really tied in with my love of campervans. In the lead up, Sophie was so responsive and helpful and made us feel so excited about the wedding. On the day, we asked Sophie to be in charge of getting all the pictures in the guestbook and getting the guestbook signed and she was fantastic! We also got digital copies which came on a cute little USB. We had a wedding logo that I designed, and Sophie was so accommodating and managed to get the logo to work in the print outs from the booth and it looked so good! And Sophie shared some lovely behind the scenes photos with us. Thank you so much Sophie, for making our day special and managing the guestbook, you were so fantastic! We loved working with you to make our wedding day as perfect as it was!

Amazing from start to finish
Sophie was amazing from start to finish! We loved having Retro VW Hire at our wedding at Preston Court and the photo booth was a huge hit with everyone! Best of all we have the funniest guest book as a keepsake. Highly highly recommend and thank you Sophie for being so professional and a real pleasure to meet 🥰

Fantastic Day!
Our wedding at Herne Bay Pier on Saturday 24/07/2021 Claire had the beautiful bluebelle as her wedding car and we used the photobooth for us and all our guests and what a fantastic day we had. The girls were so patient and helpful and really joined in with the fun. The communication from Sophie was absolutely brilliant and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you Retro VW Hire you were awesome and played a massive part in making our day more than we could ever wish for.

And when it came to our day Sophie and Gareth were brilliant, bluebelle is beautiful I love campervans wish I could have one and the photo booth experience is great, our family and friends loved it. A special touch and funny memories to add to our day. They were great with our kids also who didn’t want to leave the booth alone haha! So honestly thank you guys you were amazing and we would recommend you to anybody!! 5* customer service thank you the new Mr and Mrs Pollecutt xx

Strongly recommend booking!
Bluebelle came along to our wedding last Saturday and it gave our wedding a fun-loving vibe that all my guests enjoyed. Sophie was incredible from the beginning. After having two postponed weddings, Sophie ensured that I would get to enjoy Bluebelle on my special day. Bluebelle was stunning in the glorious sunshine and filled with many props for guests to create different poses. My youngest brother especially enjoyed the photo booth, where we struggled to get him out! Receiving the photo book filled with all my guests pictures was truly special. We can’t stop looking through them! I strongly recommend booking Bluebelle for your special day, you won’t regret it.

It really made the day.
Sophie could not have been more helpful from my first query right up to the end of my wedding day. I had both the wedding car and the photobooth. They were so flexible and accommodating with timing etc and every email or whatsapp was responded to so quickly. The wedding car was amazing and it felt so much more special than what I imagined. The care they have taken to refurbish the VW is amazing. we were given plenty of time for photographs before and after the ceremony. My favourite thing has to be the photobooth. While obviously remaining professional the girls were so much fun hosting and suggesting different props. They have a massive range. Despite the awful weather the girls kept everyone popping back in and having fun. I cannot recommend it enough. Thank you again....it really made the day!
