    Hi guys,

    Been a while since I last posted.

    Since then I have sold my 86 grand marquis and moved back to the UK and am now getting married on May 31st.

    My bride and I would very much like to re live the wagon days by having one at our wedding at the end of May.

    Are there any members on here, or does anyone know of anyone who would hire their wagon? We would obviously pay :)

    I'm unsure of how many wood panelled station wagon's there are in the UK or who to direct my enquire too, any help would be appreciated.

    The wedding is actually going to be in West Wales, and understandably travel may be required.

    Thanks :cheers:

    Simon

    You can borrow my station wagon. I'll even be your driver.
    Good luck with the wedding.

    Well, our son was married in Blackpoole and we got nearly the same answer.

    Was it not WagonQueen who lives in England? I don't think her new wagon has wood grain, though.

    HA HA! This was discussed. With a user name like that it's hard to tell from here. Thanks for the follow up Mr wagonqueen.
    Our son and his wife were married in Blackpoole and rode in an old Mercedes limo.

    Good luck with the wedding and keep in mind what our son used. An old Rolls or Mercedes. They seem to be popular there for special occasions.
