Your other licences are irrelvant, wedding cars are exempt full stop. But as long as they're used only for weddings. If you use them for anything else then the exemption doesn't apply, even if it's a one off job and the vehicle is normally used only for weddings. |

I think the wording is something like "in connection with any wedding" This has also been used by some people to do hen nights, stag nights, airport transfers for the honeymoon. |

Yes...any body could. Finding a Wedding car vehicle Insurance with Public Liability thrown in might be difficult...I looked into it and did not find any Insurers that would offer a decent priced policy, they wanted to pigeon hole it as Chauffeur drive insurance and charge between £3000/£4000..Just crazy money. And then theres the Tax man...he'd want a cut out of it to. |

It was around £300 for the year fully comp. |
