Read About Us

“Have your champagne delivered by Shire horse, surprise your guests with a beer donkey or simply have a beautiful, well trained horse as a photo station in a paddock that we create at your venue – it’s all possible”

Including real horses at your Wedding will craft an extra special dimension to the day for you and your guests.  At Hire a Shire, our wedding horses can be incorporated in so many different ways and even the simplest option of being in a paddock for guests to interact with at their leisure is a lovely idea, whether it’s a romantic proposal from a magnificent traditional Shire horse to a mini Shetland pony delivering confetti for your guests, you will certainly create incredible memories and amazing photos.

We can co-ordinate with your wedding theme and also offer bespoke packages with locally brewed artisan beers or handmade organic ice creams.
