Regent & Badsworth Landaulettes
Two near identical vintage-style wedding carsHire our Regent & Badsworth Landaulettes for Your Wedding in Essex & London
For couples who adore the romance of the 1930s era, the Regent and Badsworth Landaulettes are two of the most popular choices in our vintage-style wedding fleet. With their tall, upright bodies, sweeping wings, running boards, and distinctive chrome features, they create an unforgettable arrival that stop guests in their tracks and look stunning in photographs.
Available for chuffeur-driven hire across Essex, London and the Home Counties, both models bring the charm of a bygone motoring era while delivering the comfort, reliability, and smoothness of modern engineering. Whether you’re planning a rustic barn wedding, a traditional church ceremony, or a stately-home celebration, both the Regent and Badsworth Landaulettes blend perfectly with every setting.
A Perfect Match for Vintage-Inspired Weddings
These two cars have near-identical styling, making them an ideal pair for:
- transporting large bridal parties
- coordinating bride and groom arrivals
- matching cars for parents and bridesmaids
- creating beautifully cohesive photo sets
Their key difference lies in size and seating — the Regent is the larger model with up to 6 passengers, while the Badsworth seats up to 3–4. This makes them flexible options whether you’re transporting a full bridal party or keeping the moment more intimate.
Perfect for Any Essex or London Wedding Venue
These cars look spectacular outside:
- rustic barns
- manor houses
- country hotels
- churches
- garden weddings
- bespoke marquees
Their height and character create beautiful silhouettes against old brickwork, timber beams, rolling fields, or landscaped drives — making them favourites among photographers.
