Visible from almost any viewpoint in the city, The Balmoral is an iconic part of Edinburgh’s skyline and Princes Street. Combine this stunning architecture with a wonderful hotel and concierge team, and how could we not love our visits to the venue?!

We were delighted to play a part in A&A’s beautiful wedding and can’t wait to share more photos.

A romantic moment before heading in to Royal College of Physicians to continue the celebrations ♥️

Alisha, Jonas, and their guests were a joy to have on board the bus - here’s what they had to say about their experience:

Hiring The Red Bus for our wedding was such a highlight, I cannot recommend it more! Guests had so much fun, as did we. The bus is incredibly well kept and was so lovely inside with flowers, and a big thank you to our lovely conductor Gabriel! We hired the bus quite last minute after seeing it on instagram, and the whole team were great getting everything organised and our personalised sign done at such short notice. It is truly one of my favourite memories from the day.
