Ben Shoesmith has been a loyal client with Signature for many years, hiring self-drive hire vehicles for business and so we were really excited when he contacted us to hire a car for a very secret and special occasion, and we were more than happy to help.
Ben has been with girlfriend Sam for many years and finally decided to pop the ever so important question! Ben was planning his engagement proposal surprise for ten months and to add that extra special magical part to his plan he requested a chauffeur driven Mercedes to transport himself and Sam on his tour of London.
When founder and CEO of Signature heard about Ben’s plan he insisted the car was upgraded to our resplendent Bentley Flying Spur. Dee commented “I was delighted to hear Ben’s special news and even happier to hear that Sam said yes! It was my absolute pleasure to upgrade his car to one of my favourite models, the Bentley Flying Spur, which I thought was fitting for such a special occasion; a small gesture to really thank Ben for his custom, and look after one of our regular and valued customers. I hope both Sam and Ben have a very happy future together.”
Disguised as a birthday treat for Sam, Ben took her on a special tour of London beginning with afternoon tea at the exclusive Mayfair boutique hotel, Claridges, and continuing into the West End, where he treated lucky Sam to an indulgent shopping experience. Ben led Sam to one of London’s most iconic landmarks, the London Eye, and as they gazed at the beautiful London skyline at sunset, Ben got down on one knee and asked the love of his life to officially become his wife. A very well done to you, Ben!
After the event Ben said “Firstly, WOW! The Bentley is an incredible car and the upgrade to it was immensely appreciated. It really is fit for royalty and gets heads turning everywhere.
Secondly, Peter is a huge credit to you and Signature. Being in the driving profession myself, I understand the rules and protocols of a driver, and he certainly is first class. His knowledge was excellent and he treated us professionally and respectfully – we can’t thank him enough.
The whole day was perfect from beginning to end!
We haven’t set a date for the wedding yet but I imagine it will be sometime in 2018 and we will certainly bear you in mind when it comes to transportation.
Please also pass on our thanks to Liam for his help in arranging the reservation and his input into the day; he is a top chap and again a credit to Signature!
Thank you again for making our day special, it really did make the day feel extra special and we’re so glad you could be a part of it.”
Our heartiest congratulations to Ben and Sam (who said YES!); we wish you a lifetime of happiness together.
