If you're looking for transport that’s a little bit different with vintage style & a huge element of fun, we have just the classic collection for you. We're a small company based in Forfar, Angus offering chauffeur driven wedding transport. We are always looking to make things memorable & tailored to you. Our little fleet: Gloria - Our 1934 maroon Triumph, she's been in our family over 40 years. She has a cream soft top convertible roof & seats 3 passengers. Lickety Split - Our ’67 VW splitscreen camper, she carries 6 passengers & is a light turquoise blue & white with hand crafted Scottish burr oak interior shelves & champagne bar & designer floral curtains. Little Miss Sunshine (yellow & white) - Our 1973 VW camper van seats 6 passengers.

Our chauffeur driven package: - The van fully decorated with bows & ribbons to match your colour scheme & we also have bunting, signs & artificial flower garlands to choose from. - The chauffeur in formal dress - Complimentary bottle of 'Bubbly' with homemade chocolate truffles or nibbles of your choice (nuts/strawberries/ Haribo?) - 4 hours from initial collection - Transport to the ceremony and then onto the reception. Where the venue is the same for both we still offer a short scenic drive as a chance for the couple to catch up with each other before rejoining the reception party or as an opportunity for more photos at a different location. - 2 runs are included as standard where the distance is less than 3 miles. - Our 'Just in case' kit which includes everything from umbrellas, water, tissues, mints, hair grips....the list goes on

the driver was very efficient and friendly

We booked our wedding transport with View from the Slow Lane. We hired the Likety Split VW. The van was beautiful and exactly what we wanted and the service both on the day and in the lead up to the day was so professional. We got to choose how the van would be decorated, had nibbles and champagne provided and the driver was very efficient and friendly. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend!!!

The driver John was so patient and helpful

5 stars I hired Gloria as a surprise for my wife to come collect her and take her to our wedding venue yesterday. She absolutely loved it, and thought Gloria was beautiful! We ended up using the car a lot in our wedding photos. The driver John was so patient and helpful even though it was absolutely baltic! Thank you so much

this company is outstanding

Absolutely fantastic service!! From the communication during booking to the service on the day, this company is outstanding! Sammy and Colin simply can not do enough for you. I booked Lickety Split as a surprise for my bridesmaids and they loved it. The drive through to our venue was great. Colin really couldn’t do enough, making sure we all got out safely, keeping us dry with umbrellas! The detail in the van is so amazing!! Thank you again for being such a great part of our day

Can't recommend these guys enough.

My husband and I travelled in style after our wedding in the gorgeous Gloria while my bridesmaids were escorted in Lickety split. Both were so stunning and look amazing in our photographs. From the start Sammy was so helpful in customising the cars for our big day. Alistair and Colin were fantastic chauffeurs for the day too. We also threw in an unplanned photo opportunity which Colin was more than happy to accommodate. Can't recommend these guys enough.

Could not recommend these enough! sammy and colin are both wonderful to work with and couldn't do enough for us. They were really friendly and professional and the campervans are just stunning! They looked so great in the wedding photos and everyone complimented them on the day and wanted photos in them.

The vans really added something special to our day

Taryn and I had Lickety Split and Little Miss Sunshine booked for bridal transport on our wedding day during the middle of May at Kinkell Byre in St Andrews. Leading up to the wedding they had everything in hand very early on and had done a reccy of the route which re-assured us that everything would run smooth with getting Taryn to the venue on the day. The service they provided on the day was exceptional, the vans were immaculate....as were Colin and Angus, they were there in plenty of time and provided the ladies with a smooth comfortable ride to the venue. After the ceremony when everyone came outside, it was a great surprise to everyone seeing the two vehicles in all their glory and it was a great talking point for the reception, all the guests loved the vehicles. We can't praise Sammy, Colin and Angus enough, the vans really added something special to our day and we look forward to hopefully taking one of the vans on a wee tour of Scotland sometime in the future. All the best, Graeme and Taryn

Describe your typical process with a couple.

After the booking is confirmed we will take detailed notes of decor request & colour schemes for the vehicles as well as specific nibbles preferences . We will also discuss photo options & locations, and will then contact the photographer before the wedding to make sure we are all on the same page for timings & photo requests involving the vehicles. We always do a dry run of the route to be taken to be able to be sure on timings and locations for pick up. during the week before the wedding we make sure to get in touch and reassure the bride & groom on the timings and that the vehicle will be there at least a half hour before the requested time to ensure no panic last minute rush.
