Australia Wedding Cars Needed

Hi all,
My name is Corey Small and I live in East Doncaster, VIC. I am due to be wed on the 30th of October this year and am trying to arrange 3 new mini's to escort the ladies to the wedding venue, Colonial Courts Ringwood North Vic.
My Fiance is a lover of the beautiful stylings of the new mini and allthough finances currently do not permit the purchase of one, i am sure that shortly a light Silver Cooper S with a black roof will grace our garage.
I am trying to SECRETLY arrange for 3 mini owners/enthusiasts (Two chilli red and one Pepper white or Light silver) to deliver the bridal party to the venue and allow some professional photos to be taken of their cars afterwards.
I would happily show my appreciation however requested, i am an Industrial designer for an automotive company that owns Rola Roof racks and Hayman Reese towbars and also work as a web/Graphic designer in my spare time and would pull what ever string i am able to, to say thank you.
I plan on posting some of the pictures on the site and will happily provide some framed originals if desired.

If you are able to help me i would greatly appreciate you contacting me through any of the methods below
e: corey_small@schematikdesign.com or csmall@haymanreese.com.au
m: 0414 746 542
w: 03 9797 3254
h: 03 9878 2415 (Please do not leave a message on this number as i do not want my fiance to find out)

Thanks again all

I have a Chili red Swith Black top, I was asked to be in a wedding in may actually, in Geelong.

It is probably too far to come from Geelong to East Dandenong, otherwise I would...

If all else fails PM me!!

Good Luck

Todd

Todd, don't be such a slacker. I'd consider going to Melbourne if indi blue was requested. I reckon I would have certainly put my hand up for the Tumut gig if my car was here.

Please forward me your details to corey_small@schematikdesign.com or call me on 0414746542 to let me know what it is i can do to help you. Remember i am an industrial designer and graphic designer (Web and multimedia) and would be happy to use any of that to assist you in any project you may need done.

Todd, any way of convincing you?
I figure if i am able to use both ShermanM and your car that i may be able to get the third from Doncaster Mini.
I would like to use you as the car that takes the bridesmaids.
I will reimburse you any fuel cost and will be happy to pay for detailing or what ever will assist you in helping me (perhaps an assortment of Meguire car products)
If i am able to sway you please forward me your details to corey_small@schematikdesign.com or call me on 0414746542 to let me know what it is i can do to help you.

I had just realised that it is Honda Indy in QLD that weekend. At this point in time I am going to that. I have verbally agreed to accomodation for a week and got time off work.

October and Novemeber are big months for me!! Cobra Car Club nats at Wakefield, Bathurst with mates, Uni Exams, Indy, final uni presentation...

Like I said, if you get desperate, PM me.

Corey,
I am happy to help. Just remember to past a favour on.
One thing, I do travel alot for work. I am just hoping I will be here at that time.
As for detailing, not a problem. As I do keep my Cooper S detaled most of the time.

Many thanks

Many thanks ShermanM and Samu,
I would be greatful to secure both your services.
Please forward me your details to corey_small@schematikdesign.com so i can work out the details.
I believe Doncaster Mini will supply the last Red mini for the occasion.

Your club is fantastic and i can not wait to join as an owner member.

Thanks again and remember if you are to call my home number (listed at the top of the thread) don't mention it to my fiance' as it is our little secret.

Cheers

If you're really stuck I may be able to help out. I've got a dark silver with a dark silver roof, with the black stripes (small pics in my sig). The numberplate might also be nice if they turned out on the photos. Its a Cooper S by the way.

Cheers,

Kev

You never can have too many back-ups!!

Hey Samu has pulled out... can someone else lend a hand?

Corey lives in Doncaster and most of the wedding activities are around there.
IF you can help him, please do!!

Im coming all the way from Geelong to help... surely someone who lives 20 Mins away or closer could help the guy out for a few hours?

Last Wedding I did was great - with a white ribbon on your car, you can pretty much drive anywhere you feel like

Todd,
Good to hear your coming down from Geelong for this.
Did you go to the track last weekend? Sorry, could not make it because I was overseas for work.

Catch up with you at the Wedding.

I didnt make it to the track... I'm about to finish Uni forever, so my priorities are a bit skewed towards study right now... but then again I'm here now

Wedding assistance legends

Guys,

I think i have the crew set now,

I am absolutely stoked with the level of assistance from all of you guys.

Be sure to check out this thread after the wedding as i will post some pictures ASAP. (Obviously honeymooning obligations will be of slight priority)

Todd,
I wanted to thank you for your great effort to come so far. Vicki is going to be absolutely blown away.

(Don't tell her but i have taken the appropriate steps in getting her one of her very own, and will be joining as an owner member next year)

I can not wait to see you all on the 30th

Cheers
