Interview with an Ice Cream Van Company about Wedding Day Hire.Ice Cream Dessert At Your Wedding

We spoke to Mark Ellinor Partner at Markes Ices.

Q : Why an ice cream van at a Wedding

A: " I think most Bride and Grooms are looking for value for money, something their guests will be wowed by and also the fact ice cream brings a feel good factor and the fact our full menu range offers choice.In this day and age Bride and grooms are fed up with paying over the odds for inferior small portion a la carte menu's and are looking for something different.By far the most common reaction from guests when ice cream is delivered to a Wedding day for dessert is

"WOW" "What a great idea" "Oh how wonderful" "wow what a choice anything I want you sure" "Fantastic Idea" .many happy Brides have had guests tell them it was the highlight of the day.

Do not take our word for it please read the many reviews given by happy Bride and Grooms at an independent review site Markes Ices reviews.

Q: How do I get a quote for my wedding day?

A: "Email office@markesices.co.uk or go to the website and use our contact form. The information needed is Date,Time,location and number of guests to cater for and a detailed quote will be tailored for your special day"

Q: Will it be price competitive ?

A: "All quotes are tailored to each clients specific requests.

Q: Will you be the cheapest?"

" NO". We have always and will always strive to be the very best at what we do and cannot  and do not wish to compete with some operators that do not offer our high standards and customer expectations.

Q: Do you offer a turn up and serve and leave hire?

A: "No we have looked at this in the past and in our experience so many factors during a wedding from Church services, speeches to catering delay's cause a knock on effect for us who as dessert usually are the last to be required, so experience has taught us the key factor is flexibility so no client has any worry about unavoidable delays causing complications in us waiting until needed. With this in mind Markes Ices do not get involved in turn up and serve and leave type of hire. You book with us the van is yours as long as needed."

What do our customers say about Markes Ices ice cream van hire

4 days ago

 We booked one of Markes Ice Cream Vans for our Village Jubilee event and were so impressed with every aspect of the Service they provided - prompt response to initial enquiry, secure booking, very clean and hygenic ice cream van, extremely friendly and helpful ice cream lady (Diane) and a wonderful selection of really good quality icecream at very reasonable prices. We would be sure to book Markes Ices again and thoroughly recommend the Hedgehog Cone (4 flakes!!)... Fantastic!

 Punctual and helpful. Prepared to spend a couple of minutes with every child to make sure they got what they wanted on their icecream. Very nice icecream and didn't appear to run out of anything. Good takings for the day and gave a nice cut to the schools charity.  Joanne Jeffery (Gillingham)

 We used Markes Ices for a 1st Birthday party, and we can honestly say this was a perfect end to a great day. The ice cream van arrived on time, and the service was exceptional and very friendly. All the children were made to feel very special. The quality of the products was very good. We would recommend Markes Ices.  Ammal Kossar (Dartford)

 School May Fair many parents have commented on the value for money and the taste of the ice cream served with a smile.  Rebecca Hunnisett (Crowborough)

 I had organised an Ice Cream themed party for my little boy - he has recently discovered ice cream!! We booked Markes Ices to come round and we were so pleased we did - it certainly made his party. The service was exceptional. His face lit up when he heard the van coming up the road playing 'Happy Birthday' and he was so excited to see 'Diane' the 'Ice cream lady' - and so were all his little friends (& the mum's) I would most definitely recommend Markes Ices for any event - five star service and products. Thank you very much!  Ruth Edkins (Gillingham)

 It was a pleasure to deal with Markes Ices from the inception to execution of a campaign we undertook recently.

Mark was on hand and very helpful throught everystep of preparation for the project and Diane was smiley and a real asset on site when the campaign was underway.

Would recommend for a personable, accomadating and excellent service.

Thanks...  Jeremy Newton (Hampstead)

 Marke's Ices helped me out of a tight spot. The ice cream van we had booked previously, let us down 24hrs before our event. Marke came to the rescue, the night before my husbands surprise 65th Birthday Party with over 30 guests to cater for. They were highly professional, courteous and any request (on the ice cream front i.e. extra sherbet, flakes, sauce etc) wasn't any trouble at all. They actually let my husband wreck the van a for a good fifteen minutes, trying to demonstrate his ice cream skills, before the professionals took over. They really were the icing on the cake to a fabulous evening. I would whole-heartedly recommend them to cater for any event.
