I got married in a horrid little registery (spelling) office, 10 guests of which 4 where small children (2 ours), turned up at the restarant I had booked for a meal to find it closed. The flower shop forgot the flowers for my hair and I had been comfort eating for weeks leading up to the day and couldn't sit down in the dress as by the day it was to tight!!!I hated every minute of that day. If we had waited 6 months we could have had one of those nice one's in a Hotel garden somewhere. Oh well! still here 11 years later!! Tammy

I got married in a church, all the trimmings, more years ago than I care to remember. It was the same church my parents had married in. Went back there last year and they have changed it, and not for the better (imho) Dee xx

Catholic Church February this year. I have been told I am more than likely to get an annulment - people have had a one for less reasons than mine. Natalia x

I got married in a Hotel and it was really nice. We did everything in the one place - ceremony, reception and evening do. It made life so much easier for everybody and was really relaxed, but still romantic. Kaye x

Church, got a special licence because didn't live there anymore and it wasn't even in my mum and dads parish. Wanted that one as had gone there to youth club and same vicar was there. Years later it was the only church my mum and dad could find that would open specially for my mum after her sister had died so she could just sit.
