What you can expect when working with Melbourne Vintage Kombi Hire for your wedding car:

Award-winning Kombis. Melbourne Vintage Kombi Hire offers award-winning Kombis (best in show at the inaugural Autoclassica) from 1963 and 1958. These ‘split-screen’ Kombis have been expertly restored in classic sage and light mint green, with a rich cream interior.
Beautiful appearance. Melbourne Vintage Kombi Hire has kept the original colour of their vans, ensuring to preserve the iconic look of these vintage vehicles.
Luxurious interior. With a classic cream interior with black beading and plush seating and flooring, these vehicles are the epitome of both comfort and style.
Professional chauffeur. Booking a Kombi through Melbourne Vintage Kombi Hire means you’ll be treated like absolute royalty, and provided a warm, experienced chauffeur to drive you to your venue.

Here’s what else you need to know about Melbourne Vintage Kombi Hire.

Vintage-themed weddings. While these gorgeous classic vehicles would look wonderful at any style of wedding, they’d especially complement either boho or vintage-themed weddings.
Photobooth. Melbourne Vintage Kombi Hire can turn their two Kombis, affectionately dubbed Minty and Eleanor, into photobooths! They’ll provide an illuminated light sign, props, signs, and even a wedding book if you need one.
Gelato cart. If you’re looking for that something extra for your wedding, then you’ll love this exceptional company’s 1946 working ice-cream cart. It’s one of five left in the world, and the only one that is restored to serve ice-cream like they did in 1946 Europe.
La Creperie. And if ice-cream isn’t your thing? Melbourne Vintage Kombi Hire also offers ‘La Creperie’, a rare 1950s Lambretta crepe cart. This is perfect for taking pictures with but - of course - also serving your guests tasty treats.

“Peter and his beautiful minty Kombi is the car you need for your wedding! Peter was extremely professional, courteous, understanding, and polite. He even managed to calm and relax the bride before the ceremony! We were so pleased with Minty the Kombi, and the only thing we regret was not hiring her out for the whole night to take more pictures! Thanks again Peter!” Oliver

We hired Minty for our wedding at the Parkdale Yacht Club. The service could not have been any better. Minty was beautiful and the driver was relaxed and fun. He was awesome with the flower girls 3 of them and let them have fun. We had many photo's done with Minty and they have turned out beautiful. The driver picked up the boys first then came back and got the bridal party. He was prompt and friendly. Money well spent, easy booking process, highly recommend Melbourne Vintage Kombi Hire would definitely use them again. You guys helped to make our day special.
