Does anyone know the origin of that pic? I saw it posted here at least 8 years ago, but have never seen it credited. I suspect it may be a fake (ie not a real wedding, or maybe but probably less likely a photoshop).

This however did amuse me the other day:

fake or not, I'm sure if you took the pic to a favourable dress-maker, they could mock one up for you...? Jus' sayin, like. :wink:

Well, I'll be 40, getting married in Scotland, in winter, by a vicar, and with my father, brother and uncle in attendance. So yeah, I'm thinking maybe not.

Lovely, that's where I got married.
At the Mill something or another.
Sure you'll have a great day.
2hrs drive from me though so you don't need to worry about a run by ricing.

Ah, that's a shame. Yeah, we're getting married at the Blacksmith's Shop. Looks very cute, and so much history.

It really is lovely, isn't it?

I actually think it's the Mill Forge, which is apparently a 5min drive from our venue. I know of it cos we're looking into having a meal there afterwards, as the restaurant at our hotel, which is right next to the Blacksmiths, is a bit posh/expensive/vegan-unfriendly for our party.

Haha, me too! I only replied on this thread again as Boboff had posted bumping it up to ask how it was going. I'm a member of a wedding forum, where I can talk/read about these things with other interested parties and not bother people who don't really care about bouquet charms or the cost of registrars

We haven't planned a reception yet, so no cake news at the moment. When we're back I guess we will - but financially I can only deal with one thing at a time, and I still have accessories, bouquet, rings and various makeup items I need to pay for - not to mention the hotel on the day! And Christmas is right in the way of my planning time. So inconveient.

You don't need to spend money on any of that. Just run off and get married on the cheap. No fuss.

Hmmm... I'm still shocking myself slightly with my new-found interest in this general subject. They are, overall, ruddy expensive. Even a bloody evening do at a hotel is knocking on £3000..! Although, your money goes waaaay further as soon as you leave the UK, I've noticed. That same £3000 gets you a feck of a lot of a wedding in Spain.

Just need to find a spare few £,000 now - anyone know the going rate for a kidney..! :wink:

We ARE getting married on the cheap - spending around £2.5k total (ceremony, venue and minister fees, petrol there and back, two nights in a hotel, outfits, rings, a bouquet and a meal afterwards). You can get married in your jeans and T shirt with no flowers if you want, but you do need a venue, officiant and rings at the very least. There are people on the forum I use spending £30k+, and the average seems to be £10-15k.
