We got married in gretna...our photographer was brill...fiona & June are fab for hair and makeup.
Phone the gretna hall, we got married in the workshop and ask them for recommendations...they have all contact numbers and dont forget to get the bagpiper...he's lovely, not very good with names though

colin was great, got photos back about 2 hours after wedding

however his style is fairly cheesy but I embraced that because of gretna wedding and arranged my own photographer too ( a friend ) to take some lovely, natural black and white shots

I know a fantastic photographer, but I dont think Hub2Dee would travel all the way from London

yeah it will only be the two of us plus ds. How much did you spend on your dress? Ive been offered a deal for a venus dress, veil and tiara for £550 do you think thats too much considering it will only be dp and i there. What was your wedding like at the bla

Who was your photographer crispyduck ?

Fiona and June have a pretty heavy hand with make up. They say it is for the photographs but be careful if you are using fake tan on your body as the overall effect can look quite odd. You might consider bringing your own make up.
