The Little Red Bus Full Description
Meet our 1971 Volkswagen Bus we affectionately call “Rory”, chauffeur driven by Adrian, owner and lover of all things mechanical. Rory, also doubles up as a unique photo booth for your entertainment - Covering Devon, Cornwall, Somerset & Dorset.... and occasionally Nottinghamshire (as I cant leave my roots!) Rory started life as an East German fire crew bus before working his way over to Poland at some point in the late 80s/90s. After years of working on various old VW’s we imported ...Rory in 2008, with no interior and a more than slightly suspect engine, we set to work getting him up and running for a European road trip the following summer. The trip was a success (apart from a few little issues) and we enjoyed many a trip out in him over the following years, including using him for our own wedding in 2010. By 2012 he was starting to show his age after many days down on the beach so we took him off the road. As with most of these stories, what we thought would be a few small jobs... turned into a full restoration and with the exception of the paintwork and seat trimming all of the work has been carried out by Adrian your chauffeur and booth host! Rory is also now sporting a Subaru engine for a little added reliability and comfort. We thought he was too special to keep to ourselves.

The photo booth went down an absolute storm

I wanted to send an email to say a big thank you to The Little Red Bus (and Adrian), for coming along to the wedding! It's safe to say the photo booth went down an absolute storm with everyone - people were in and out all evening and I can't recall a time I saw it empty! The photos we've seen look brilliant and it created so so many laughs throughout the evening! When we returned from honeymoon, we arrived back to the USB stick so thank you for sending it - it's a lovely little token! Richard and I haven't even had the chance to look through the photos properly but we can't wait to sit down do just that! Thank you again for everything, and wishing you, Adrian and The Little Red Bus all the luck for the future!

This stunning and unique photo booth

The Little Red Bus - ‘Rory’ - was with us for our wedding day on Saturday. This stunning and unique photo booth added an extra special touch to our day. From our initial enquiry to the day itself, Laura and Adrian have been absolutely amazing. Laura was always quick to respond to emails and super friendly and kind. Adrian was on hand all day to help us on Saturday and was absolutely wonderful! We are so pleased Rory could be with us and we would highly recommend the little red bus. If you’re thinking of booking Rory for your special day/ event JUST DO IT! You won’t regret it!! Thank you so much Rory, Laura and Adrian! Really hope we see you all again soon! ♥️ Love Mr and Mrs Breen! Xx

We are so happy we used The Little Red Bus

Thank you for being such a great addition to our wedding. You Were a last minute addition, but a total hit! Everyone commented how friendly you were, and we loved the festival vibe that your Little Red bus brought to the day. We have some hilarious photos, some of which I think people are regretting! :) We were so lucky to have such beautiful weather in our favourite place and with the fire works it was just magic. We are so happy we used The Little Red Bus and you are a fantastic supplier!
