Azure can provide a comprehensive wedding service that includes chauffeuring all of the following people on the wedding day: groom/best man, bride/dad or escort, bridesmaids/mum, bride/groom and any friends/relations that it is logistically possible to drive around on the wedding day prior to the wedding reception. So once you have our fee there will be no additional charges for time or mileage (if within a 15-mile radius of Cheltenham). Prices start from £195.00.
When you book Azure there are no time limits on how long our cars/drivers are available to you, from the first pick-up until the start of the wedding reception.
When you book Azure there are no mileage limits, unless the journey is more than 15-miles from Cheltenham. In such circumstances we would agree an additional fee to cover this mileage before you book with us. So all your costs are know about before you commit to using Azure.
We are so proud of our cars that we would thoroughly recommend a viewing of all of them at our Cheltenham location before you finally decide on which one(s) you want for the special day.
It is only by sitting in them and being taken on a short drive that you can experience the unique qualities of each of our cars, choose from the long-wheelbase Rolls-Royce Flying Spur (with 16″ of legroom), the extended-wheelbase Bentley Arnage or the Rolls-Royce Phantom (both with 22″ of legroom).

Every enquiry is managed personally by the founder and principal chauffeur of Azure, David Keffler. In fact, he will take you right through the booking process and will therefore, be fully aware of all the requirements you have for the big day. So if it is possible, Azure will provide it!

If you aren’t able to view them then please send an e-mail or call, and David will reserve the chosen car in your name.
If the car you want is available for your special day then it is advisable to book it there and then.

If Azure has a car and driver available then you can book a wedding car up until the day before the wedding. In such circumstances, Azure will provide you with its full breadth of services as standard.
Please send us a message as soon as possible if you are in this position.
Yes. If you book any combination of 2 or 3 of Azure’s Wedding Cars (Rolls-Royce Phantom, Rolls-Royce Flying Spur and/or Bentley Arnage) then you will receive a 5% discount on the total price.
If you cancel your booking before paying the deposit (due within 14-days of booking) then the deposit will not be payable.

Azure only accepts bookings that it can fulfil and has never been in this situation. If before the day an issue arises with your chosen car that cannot be resolved before your wedding then Azure will substitute one of its other Rolls-Royce or Bentley motor cars. If they are already booked out then it will source and pay for a car of an equivalent standard. Should this situation arise you will be kept informed as the matter progresses.
Azure has 4 wedding cars to choose from: A Rolls-Royce Phantom, a Rolls-Royce Flying Spur, a Bentley Arnage Limousine (choose from either blue or grey) and a BMW X5. Each has its own character and the best way to choose between them is to visit Azure in Cheltenham, where you can view the cars and experience them on the road.
Please view our wedding cars page HERE to make your choice.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom, Rolls-Royce Flying Spur and Bentley Arnage Limousines all have engines with a V12 or turbo’s. The Flying Spur can get to 60mph in 6.5 seconds and the Phantom and Arnage both in 5.5 seconds – so, there’s no need for the extra cost of a groom-only Aston Martin, as Azure’s cars can then accommodate the bride as well.
Azure has a long wheelbase Rolls-Royce motor; the Flying Spur, which has 16″ of legroom but if you need a serious amount of legroom then the Rolls-Royce Phantom or Bentley Arnage Limousines are the cars for you. It has 22″ of legroom and is almost unique outside London.
Images of the legroom for each car are available to view HERE.
All of the cars can carry four passengers except for the Bentley Arnage Limousine, where the grey version can carry 3 and the our blue one can carry 4. This is because it has been set up with an exclusive arrangement in the rear, where the 2 passengers benefit from 22″/60cm of legroom, heated seats that recline and a champagne table that as well as holding your bottle of champagne will also hold your glasses between sips.
Only in London would you normally find this level of luxury and is exactly where this car spent the first years of its life, chauffeuring a member of a foreign royal family around the capital.
All the cars are in pristine condition. Each one was only purchased after months of careful research to find the best example available of that model. The Rolls-Royce Phantom, Flying Spur and Bentley Arnage limousines have very low mileage for their age. All the cars are kept in tip-top condition by the local main dealers for Rolls-Royce, Bentley and BMW.
Yes. Not only do ribbons come as standard but if you would like us to, we will find the closest match to the colour theme of your wedding.
We are happy to place any flowers or decorations on or in the car. Our only provison is that they won’t compromise the pristine nature of the car for future brides.
Thankfully, we’ve never had a vehicle break down. However, should that occur, we have enough vehicles to call on to cover the situation. Moreover, to ensure minimum time is lost and the journey can continue smoothly, a local chauffeur company would be called upon immediately as a replacement (either temporarily or for the remainder of the duration of your booking). All such costs would be covered by Azure.
Azure has a BMW X5, which has four-wheel drive. So if the weather got really bad Azure would always be able to get you to your wedding – unless conditions were impassable for any car!
Each of Azure’s cars is equipped with very powerful air-conditioning systems.
All of our cars have powerful engines. The BMW X5 can accelerate to 60mph in 8.5 seconds. The Rolls-Royce Flying Spur can do it in 6.5 seconds and the Rolls-Royce Phantom and Bentley Arnage Limousines can get there in 5.5 seconds.
The most luxurious of the Azure wedding car fleet – particularly in the rear compartment with 22″ of leg room – is the Rolls-Royce Phantom, which is a special edition Sapphire from the Bespoke Collection, in pearlescent white. Made to a unique specification with many options, this vehicle is one-of-a-kind and is in immaculate condition.
Our Rolls-Royce Flying Spur is one of only 50 where the powerful Bentley Turbo R engine was placed under its bonnet.
Azure also has two Bentley Arnage Limousines, where each have 22″ of legroom. They are a part of only a handful in the UK with this amount of rear space.
The car you book from Azure will be available for all the journeys you require from the beginning of the wedding day until the start of the wedding reception. This will include all the time and mileage required for these journeys, which can include: groom to ceremony, bridesmaids to ceremony, bride to ceremony and bride and groom to reception, via a scenic route including use of Azure’s Champagne service if required. The only exceptions to this are (1) If any of the journeys are outside a 15-mile radius of Cheltenham, in which case and additional charge may apply or (2) If the logistics of the day dictate that more than one car is required, in which case the second car will attract an additional charge. An example of this is where it is too far to drive the bridesmaids to the wedding ceremony and then return for the bride.

Azure is not able to provide Champagne because to do so would be considered to be a supply of alcohol, which is contrary to section 136 of the Licensing Act 2003 and thereby a criminal offence.
Azure instead offers a Champagne service. This comprises the provision of a Champagne table, flutes and chiller, along with the serving of Champagne supplied to Azure by the wedding party. So when your wedding car arrives, just hand your bottle the driver and they will serve the Champagne to the newly married couple after the ceremony.
Please Note: Azure is happy to serve light coloured drinks such as Champagne, sparkling white wine, white wine or sparkling apple juice. We do not however allow red wine in any of our wedding cars as this could stain the leather and affect the luxury wedding car experience for future clients bookings.
Absolutely. The car(s) you have booked will remain with you for as long as you require until the start of the wedding reception and there won’t be any charge for this. It is all included in the fee we agree before you book. Azure doesn’t have any hidden charges.

You will be driven either by Azure’s founder and principal chauffeur, David Keffler, or one of Azure’s carefully selected Associate Chauffeurs, all of whom have been chosen for the combination of driving skills and customer service.
Your chauffeur will be wearing a chauffeur’s uniform with matching chauffeurs cap.
Absolutely. In fact, they will explain and demonstrate how to enter and exit a car in a wedding dress – something that is completely different from how you normally do so!
Azure won’t use your chosen car(s) for another wedding/event on the same day unless the timings permit.
Each of Azure’s cars carries several umbrellas that will be used to protect the passengers from the rain.
Of course. Your chosen car can collect the groom from his overnight stay and take him to the venue. The car will then wait during the ceremony and whisk the newly married couple off for a half-hour scenic drive, with a glass of champagne each. This will give the newlyweds some precious time together before meeting their guests as husband and wife. During the journey they may wish to stop at a favourite location, where their photographer can take some special shots for the wedding album. Another big advantage of this service is that the bride has a chance to take a break from the venue, which she otherwise would be at from the night before the wedding until the morning after the wedding day.
