What can you tell me about the wedding Gretna Green? Marry later this year, but on a really small budget. Can anyone give me their experiences Gretna Green we have planned to go to save money on the guest list, etc.
Gretna Green was used instead fled young to marry without permission from their parents before their eighteen, the ceremony took place on the anvil of blacksmith space by space.
The ceremony is now performed by the officer of the state usually in an approved site for the ceremony, it has become very tourist oriented and is not a cheapie more.
If you are interested in the history of Gretna Green weddings until the current date, visit this site, it became popular in 1754!

.
The only thing I know is that where the couple fled when they were not allowed to marry or are not able to get a priest to marry in their city.
I am married to the local registry office, cheap rings, dress ebay, etc. etc. all in all, we spent 300 pounds, almost everyone has given us money as a gift and we ended up with 350 pounds, 50 pounds lol so profits and we just went out for a meal here later, why should you pay to take two families to dinner for your wedding???
Gretna Romantic perception
The age of marriage in England was 18
and Scotland, it was 16
(Again)
and fled when a couple just over the border into Scotland to get married there when they could not in England
Yes you have the blacksmith, etc.
but in reality
Today is a commercial carpet,
a wife in another to
its very touristy and now
If you can see beyond this and its great, but it's not for me
its people in a hurry, you see the marriage before and after yours,
their wives as a convention
** EDIT ** for Mrs. G
Gretna ISN'T Vegas of England
simple reason
It isn't IN ENGLAND
The Vegas of England. Generally considered a joke by people in the United Kingdom. My fiance and I have discussed marriage Comlogdon Castle Gretna Green when we thought that my parents werent going to pay for the wedding .. God thank you, they also decided bc once I heard about their reputation (I am from the U.S.) I was sooo glad I didn't do it!
Do not do it. Its low and sticky!
ps the name of my fiance Graham too:)
isn't that when children and paedos will marry?
