Don't suppose anybody anybody in Wakefield area is free to be a witness at our wedding tomorrow afternoon?

That's it really. We're running away and getting married by ourselves with the DC (you can't really call it eloping when it's Wakefield ) tomorrow afternoon.

We were going to accost people in the street and still will if this doesn't work but thought we'd give it a shot here.

We can offer you a free glass of bubbly in return

Awww - lovely pictures! You all look great - I have a warm fuzzy feeling having been able to be part of your wedding- from behind a screen - loads of happiness to you all

BetsyBoop · 30/06/2010 18:03

Congratulations
Fab pics

We also got married in secret apart from two friends who were our witnesses - it's definitely the best most stress-free way to do it

Wish we'd thought of getting witnesses off mumsnet, what a fab idea (I wouldn't go along with DH's suggestion of dragging tramps and drunks strangers off the street )

robino · 30/06/2010 18:06

Ladies. DH (haha!) is feeling very left out. I think he was expecting some propositions .

I think he is gorgeous
